HARMONY BETWEEN
MERCHANTS URGED
Muncie Business Man Deliv.
ers Address to Local Mer-
chants Last Night.

Criticising the trading stamp bust.
ness as an inducement for trade; de.
ploring the action of merchants in be.
ing SO antagonistic to the competitors
that they will not even speak to them !;
jumping on the mail order business
method as a leech to tradesmen and
advising organization as the best
method for commercial success. Fred
Fromouth, president of the Muncie
Business Mems association. addressed
the merchants section of the Com
mercial club on Thursday evening in
an interesting and most instructive
manner.
His subject was THE Benefits OF
Organization" He believes it is a
great thing both from social and bust.
ness standpoints. He sand that where
q feeling Of antagonism prevailed
among the merchants they were sure
to find less pleasure and often times
less profit in their business. Compe.
tition is not so keen or bitter when
merchants in the same business are
friendly and the cutting of prices,
when the unfriendly spirit is mani.
tested between merchants, is only an
injury to both the price cutter and his
competitor. as 1t destroys probable
business for the latter and does not
give the former fair profit on his
wares.
Trading stamps are too often pur.
chased to hold trade which q merch.
ant has. He could not see that trad.
ing stamps were ever responsible for
again in business by q merchant who
handles them. He believes it is the
duty Of citizens of city to patronize
home industries and not the mail
order houses. Pulling together Is
what the merchants Of any city need
to do: they improve business and they
better civic conditions by such action
he believes.
Following his address. A. Bogue

association. with his headquarters at
Indianapolis. spoke on the subject oi

MADE IN Her SUIT
Numerous Charges Made in
Complaint for Divorce
by Mrs. bessie Boyer.

Nearly every allegation known in a
divorce complaint is averred in the
complaint which bessie Boyer Of near
East Germantown has filed in the cir.
cult court against Daniel Boyer. Be
sides relief from Boyer's cruelty, the
wife asks that she be given custody
of the two children. claiming that the
father is SO lazy and lacking in suf.
ficient energy, uses intoxicants to
such an excessive extent that he is
neither capable or fit to have the care
of them.
Boyer in few days will be paid
about hundred dollars by Uriah
Bertsch, administrator of the estate
of the late John Boyer. and the com.
plainant desires the court make an
order compelling her husband to pay
a sufficient amount into the court that
she may meet her court costs. She
believes that 1t is only fair her hus.
band should pay for the privilege OF
being divorced.
They were married in Muncie on
March %. 1898, and have lived to
gether ever since, the complaint not
showing that they are now separated
The charges averred are failure to
provide, either for herself or their
children in proper manner; cruel
and inhuman treatment and the ex.
cessive use by the defendant OF
strong liquor. The defendant is one
of the children of the late John Boyer
who were unwilling 70 pay their step

]. S. TREATY WITH
CANADA DENOUNCED
American Society of Equity
Today Declares Treaty
Affects the Farmers.

indianapolis. Nov, 1S.-Alleging the
proposed reciprocity treaty between
Canada and the United States to be
Of beneft only to corporations and to
be detriment to farmers. the Amer
lean Society of Equity today unani-
mously condemned the treaty. A pro-
test is to be sent to state meetings
and to members Of congress. The con-
vention today also passed q model
plan for cooperative selling and buy.
ing Of products. The society will
probably be reincorporated under the
New Jersey laws. This will allow
the establishment Of headquarters any
where. It is understood. however. the
headquarters will remain in lndianap.
oils.
This action was taken because OF
the laws OF the state OF Indiana which
requires all corporations. not founded
for pecuniary profit to hold their con.
ventions within the state and to main
tain headquarters in the capital city.
What Model Plan 10.
The model plan adopted was the in.
corporation OF local companies under
the supervision of members of the 20.
ciety for the purpose Of establishing
cooperative exchanges, warehouses,
cold storage plants and elevators. The
basis of operation for these plants, az
adopted. includes the paying Of pre-
vailing local prices for all goods
bought or sold. declaring Of dividends,
according to the patronage. after a
fixed rate Of interest has been paid on
all the capital stock. In the absence
Of incorporated companies the ap
pointment Of local and state business
agents was recommended
1t was announced by the president
today that all business would be rush

BRYAN CONDEMNS SALOON
AND Is FOR LOCAL OPTION
Statement Issued at COmmoner Office
at Lincoln Places Nebraskan
on Record.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 14.-In a state
ment given to the press Saturday
night W. ]. Bryan declares for county
option in Nebraska, and adds 1t Is
time for the political parties 70 de-
clare themselves Independent OF the
liquor interests.
Bryan says county option is fair and
logical. and insists that the govern
ment has undoubted right to regulate
the liquor traffic in any manner It may
see fit
After an extended argument In
favor OF the principle of county option,
the statement concludes:
The saloon-not every one, but as
a rule-is in alliance with vice. II Is
constantly used to debauch politics.
and prevent the intelligent considera-
ton of public questions.
The liquor interests interfere in all
matters that may even remotely affect
their interests.
They made themselves odious at
the last session of the Nebraska legis-
lature. The democrats had a majority
of both branches for the first time in
the states history. and a splendid
record Legislature has but one blot on
it, that put there by the liquor inter
ests. They controlled enough sena-
tors to prevent the submission of the
initiative referendum.
THE democratic party can not az
ford to act as the mouthpiece for the
liquor interests and can have nothing
in common with the selfish. mercenary
and constituencies crusade that the
liquor interests have organized against
home and state-against the private
virtue Of public morals"
