The Channels of Commerce

necessary agents, few. But if dis
tribution is effected with economy
and without great waste, the para
sites would be out of a Job; de-
prived of their toll gates, they would
have to turn producers or starve.
The preteXt by which they secured a
living at the expense of the producers
would be gone
Many of the parasites work as hard
in competing with one another as the
producers do, only they produce moth
ing and are a dead loss to society.
If the energy expended by the para
sites, the superfluous agents of distri
button, was usefully employed, the
burden Of the producer would be
lightened, and the activities of the
parasite not increased, simply by the
utilization of what is now unproduc
tive effort
The trusts and corporations are
showing us how to minimize the cost
OF prOduct1On and distribution. At
the present time this is done for the
gain of the few, but some day, when
we have learned the lesson, it will be
turned to the advantage of the
many.
The man who produces has to sup
port every other man who does not
produce, as we'll as himself. There
are few items of human service
as Important as production, but the
day of fake service is doomed, the
unessential is speedily stricken out.
The body polite can not be truly
healthy until every parasite has been
usefully employed.

Ger DarCer ana exchange, when the
skins of fur-bearing animals were a
medium of exchange, and local con-
sumption limited the market to the
needs of the community, commerce
has grown, through the agencies of
improved transportation, necessitated
by the wants of eighty millions of
people, until, like mighty river, the
products of the producer flow to the
consumer, in vast volume, with a
force of current that floats the com
mercial world and turns the wheels
of our industrial system
The great stream of commerce
flows from the producer to the con-
sumner along narrow, crooked
course, canon faced with granite
crags, where the products of the
world run gamut, where those who
help to make the course straight and
smooth are few. and those who block
it's movement and pervert it's current
are many.
The wealth of the world flows in
the channel of commerce. From it
all men are fed, clothed and support
ed, in idleness or industry. The pro
Queer is the first source. Out of
what he produces he feeds himself
and all the rest of the world. 1t is
the business of commerce to distrib-
ute the product, to leave the producer
living, not too sumptuous, and dis
tribute the rest to the balance of the
world taking due toll in payment for
the service of distribution thus rem
dered.
It is to the interest of the world
to distribute the products of the pro
Queer to the consumer with the great
est efficiency and economy, but COM
merce has considered it to it's own
advantage to make the system eat up
as near all the product, in the process
of distribution, as is practical, leav-
ing the producer only what natural
necessity requires, and delivering to
the consumer only the bare substance
of life. All the products, in excess of
the bare necessities, are used up
along the channel of commerce,
where the parasites feed and wax
fat.
Along this channel of commerce
there are pirates who hold up the
products of labor and take tariff, as
little as they must, as much as they
may. The human beasts of pray are
here, the vultures and the jackals
and the wolves, each with his toll
gate, extracting what he can from
the great DEMONSTRATING stream, and
the only excuse for these numerous
holdups, is that the pirates are dis
tributing the products Of the pro-
GER to the consumer. Under the
present system, it takes about nine
toll gates to accomplish this distri-
button. and only about one-tenth of
the product reaches the end of the
channel and is handed out to the
consumer in general. Thus the pro-
ducer must support nine men before
he can feed himself.

One OF the most misehieyous Hal

Saturday by Cupid, who gave to one

he paid for license. The story OF
the trick played by the little god of
love, which ended in the marriage of
Mr.. Walter McConnaughy and Miss
Mary Gardner after thrilling elope-
ment from their homes in Anadarko,
proves that the romance Of aye oldyn

century
About 6 o'clock Saturday night, Me-
Connaughy arriving here from Anadar-
ko with the lady Of his choice, went
into Owsley's jewelry store to buy a
wedding ring, and when his nervous

mented upon, he told his story:
II want the ring as quick as can
get it, then | want to get a license and

to have been married tomorrow after
noon to another man, whom her par
ents like best. but she loves me and|
