"Why, I'm looking over the books

Such general prosperity as may exist

comm unities are to continue 30 be
built up by contributions that should
be spent at home from the thousands
of smaller communities.
The need of the country. a desper'
ate need upon which the welfare OF
the individual depends, is for the
upbuilding and continued progress of
the smaller communities, 80 that the
wealth of the country may be distrib
uted over the entire country, and not
congested and controlled In large
amounts in comparative few centers
Of population.
Therefore, the man who sends away
from his own community money which
he might have spent at home and per
mitted fair profit to the home mer
chant to be retained there for the
benefit of the community, is injurina

The mail order giants direct their
energies particularly toward the PEG.

cultural districts. In hundreds Of
thousands of the homes of these the
of the mail order house is as
regularly received as the home paper.

A fact not generally known is that
hundreds of concerns throughout the
country which now are doing business
through the regular trade channels are
awaiting only a parcels post law to
Inloose literature, already prepared
n many instances, which would pro-
feet them into the mail order field. and
This does not take into account the
hundreds and perhaps thousands of
entirely new mail order concerns
which inevitably would spring into ex-
Stence under such friendly auspices.
The two Chicago institutions re-
ierred to- already occupying immense
buildings, found themselves cramped
for room. One of them expended not
ess than 81 100000, and probably more,
Tor new home. The other lately has
secured a new location and also will
expend at least $1,000,000 for an i'm
mense new building.
Anyone who will reflect even casual
ly on the subject must become i'm
pressed that the influence of the mail
order business is toward the central
ization of wealth, and how enormous
. part it is playing in this direction
will be understood from a second
glance at the figures which have been
given above.
1t is due to himself that every patron
Of the mail order house should inquire
honestly of himself what the final out
come Is to be II the mail order bust
ness shall continue to make the great
strides which have marked its prog
sess during the last half decade.
1t is useless to repeat the well worn
argument of the mail order concerns
that they are selling goods enough
more cheaply than the merchants in
he regular channels of trade to leave
heir customers more money than
ever to devote to home enterprises
and institutions. The fauacy of this
statement has been proved over and
over again by actual and minute COM

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
ON His Western Trip Advocates
Ship Canal From Lakes
To, Gulf.

Washington d. c. Oct. 9-The
President is now in the middle of
his Western trip, and delivering
The speeches he prepared while at
oyster Bay. In. his speech at Cairo
he rel iterated his plea for Fedora
control over the railroads and all
other corporations doing an inter.
state business. His argument is
that with that control ,, or eentfali-.
zation Of power, so to speak, the
average man s chances will be in
creased. 1t was noticeable, how
ever. that while the other parts Of
his speech were enthusiastically
received, that part Of it relating to
Capitalization was met with but
title applause. His scheme of d
big ship canal from the Gulf to the
lakes was splendidly resolved, and
81 far as the Mississippi kwerars
are concerned he certainly struck
popular chord. Nothing Was or
has been said SO fa1 upon the third
term proposition, except when he
referred to the support of the deep
water channel that might be ex-
peeted Of him during ',fhe brief
remainder of his term Of office.
That insignificant little phrase
WAS ii subject Of much comment
omoog the politicians present, as
il was said in such a matter-of- fact
manner that it led even the West
arn men who had been roofing
|. udes for him to believe that he
certainly intends to retire from TIE
Presidency at the expiration of his
present term.
But the party loyalty of Roose-
