The co-operat,ys System

Geo. Dawson, an old timer of
northern Idaho and we'll known in
this vicinity will organize a cooper
alive store here and also one at
Copeland. All those interested
will do well to see Mr.. Dawson and
let him explain the system.
THE RoCHDALE SYSTEM
Now this system differs from all
other kinds of cooperation, and
really aims not only to accomplish
all that has been expected of other
plans but in the interest of all the
people instead of capital alone.
The system was organized in 1S43
by a band of poor weavers in Eng
land, who laid down the following
principles:
First, that all members were
equal and men, not money, should
do the voting. Each member
would have but one vote.
Second, membership to be I'M
limited and books always open to
any and all corners that desired to
CO. operate with their neighbors.
Third, capital to be furnished by
the membership and recognized as
servant and not master, receiving
an equal and fair rate of hire pei
annum, the same as any other EN-.
ploye.
Fourth, net profits over and abovs
all expense of handling or produc-
ing and interest on capital belong
to those creating such profits.
Fifth, to have a central organi.
cation such as Wholesale Owned and
controlled by minor organizations
Sixth, set aside a large fund from
the net pr offs of the business Of
each company for an educational
fund to be used for education of the
masses in true cooperation.
To join any Rochdale company
you would make application and pay
$l03, the 800 for your membership
share and the $3 admission fee foI
the incidental exrenses of the
company and, with others, make il
successful, you would receive at the
end of the year s per cent on your
800 and a dividend on your trade
You will in that way get your
goods at wholesale prices plus the
necessary expense of delivering
them to you.
Rochdale stores sell to every per-
son, at the same price, but the net
profits 60 to the members, and, in
this state, over 60 per cent of the
trade in retail stores comes in from
non-members. Some companies
give half the dividend to non-mem-
bers, which is a very good thing.

After painful and lingering ILL
ness, DR.. Neil G. Walker. for five
years dentist of Spokane, died on
the 18th inst, at the home of his
parents in Moravia, of pulmonary
tuberculosis.
He was born in Armville, Penn.
on the 9th of July, 1876. From
his infancy he. was distinguished
for bis honesty and fidelity to his
family and friends. The large
Establishments in which he worked
were repeatedly left in his charge,
and his word was never questioned

funds.
The funeral was held on Sunday

The remains were inferred in the

Allow us, through the columns
of the Herald to express our sincere
gratitude to the people of Moravia
for their kind care and sympathy
during the last illness and death
of our beloved son, DR.. Neil Walk
er. For almost six months, the
people seemed to vie with each
other in contributions of flowers
and all the delicacies OF forest and
stream, as we'll as gardens and
larders of their homes.
This expression of our thanks is
likewise due the railway men and

an unworded kindness have shown
a humane spirit

Organization of the knights of
Columbus will be started immediate
ly according to decision reached at
the meeting held Sunday morning
after mass at the Catholic church by
members of the order in this district.
About 25 of the lodge men we're
present.
Blanks for applications, medical
certificates and other literature ap-
pertaining to the order have been
received from Judge McGinnis, who
has charge of this district. These
were distributed among those present

bring former members to the next
meeting.
While it is certain that the lodge
will be formed here, it is not though
that anything more than preliminary
arrangements can be completed be-
fore the end of Lent. Shortly after
Easter it is planned to have grand
installation of the lodge with appro-
pirate ceremonies. Several promi-
nent lodge men will be invited to at
tend and participate in the cere-
