SETTLES DELTA CASE
GERMAN GOVERNMENT PAYS M0N-
 FEY IN PENSACOLA.
Steamer Violated Order of Court and Nearly Caused International Conn iicatfons-Commfttee Decides
 Congressional Contest.

Pensacola. Fla, Sept. 12.--(Speciai) After nonths of correspondence be- tween the State Departments of the United States and Germany. what at first promised to cause international complications over an incident which occurred in Pensacola Harber. today came to a close today, when German Consul Rolfs paid over to libellants or the German steamer Delta the respec- tive amounts due them.
 With the payments of these amounts the complaint lodged with the German government against the steamer were withdrawn.
 The trouble arose three months ago when the German steamer Delta was libeIied and taken into custody by the United States marshal. The libellants were Pensacola, New Orleans and Mo- bile persons, and the papers were served on the master on board the ship.
 Within twelve hours afterwards the master steamed out of Pensacola har- Dor, paying no attention to the libel. Revenue cutters were ordered from Key West and Mobile to chase the ves- sel, and if possible to apprehend her. but they were unable to overtake her. f The matter was reported to the State Department, as the master had been adjudged in contempt of the courts. and complaint was then lodged with the German government, After much corespondence it was decided by the United States to drop the case, pro- yided the German government paid in full the amount of tho rlibels. which has been done.

Development League.

The regular meeting of the To-
ledo Development League will be
held next Tuesday evening, the
25th.
Much business of importance will
come before this meeting.
The railroad will take off one of
the daily trains the middle of Sep
tember. In Newport parties are
circulating a petition asking the
authorities to keep the midday
trains and discontinue the morning
and evening tains. This would
make it necessary for our trainmen
to move from Yaquina to Albany.
And if the S. P. and Westside trains
don't change their time tables we
will have no out side connections
and it will consume two days for
our people on the Bay to reach
independence, Monmouth, Salem
and other Valley points.
The time is short and this meet
ing of the League will be our last
opportunity to publicly discuss this
matter and take united action, if
we have any choice in the matter.
We must also make our Carnival
a success and to do so the various
committees must get a move on
themselves. So come out sure.

Mr.. Business Man


Do you find that some people who
ought to be your customers are buy
ing their goods from mail order
houses?
During the first six months of the
present year Sears, Roebuck & Co.
report an increase of over two mil
lion dollars in the amount of bust
ness done than during the CORES
ponding months in 1907.
What are you doing to counteract
this deplorable condition?
To wrangle with your customers
about the injustice they are doing
to themselves, to the town and to
yourself, and that the mail order
stuff is all trash, is waste of time
and energy. While you are un-
doubtedly right, you must face the
conditions as they are-not as we
would not like to have them.
We know that you can give your
customers just as good or better
value than the catalogue houses and
you can serve them quickly, show
ing them the goods before they buy.
But the dear people forget to
come and talk to you. The fact
that you trusted them for goods last
year is nothing to them. They
argue that you are making profit
enough by selling on time or you
wouldn t be doing it.
Do the catalogue houses give the
children candy, the men cigars, the
women some little gift? No, sirl
And when you do the people take
the gift, and say to themselves,
bait, " and I'VE are paying for this
you can bet. :"
The men who are running the
catalogue houses are successful bust
ness men. If they thought gifts,
donations or premiums were busl-
ness getters, they would use them.
But they don't-they Advertise.
There is not a week but they send
their advertising into Toledo by the
bushel. Every farm paper and all
the cheap magazines depend on cat.
alogue house advertising for theil
support. In fact many of the cheap
farm and home" magazines are
owned by the big mail order houses
and published for no other purpose
than to distribute their advertising
What are you doing to counter.
act this steady stream of carefully
prepared literature that is striking
directly at your business? The
best, the only method, is to fight
them with their own weapon-adver-
tising.
The best way to advertise is tc
place an ad in your local paper. II
goes right into the peoples homes,
right along with the catalogue ad.

cheaper than it can be done any
other way.
Yes, people do read advertise
