Come Here Again.
DIERs GIVES HIS ANNUAL ADDRESS
President of Association Tells of the
Laws Secured by Organization
and of other Benefits
Accruing.

The place of holding the next convention
Of the Federation Of Nebraska Retailers
win be decided at this afternoons session.
Tho matter was brought up IN the con-
vention ahead Of time yesterday by some
delegate. A. strong sentiment in favor of
Omaha was at once developed, but the
Omaha boosters did not push their argu-
ment and the convention decided to lay
the question over until this afternoon.
In his annual address, President Fred
Dlers of Madison, told of the splendid work
toward good legislation, but he also said
that great deal more was still to be
accomplished. He told of the good which
the conventions achieve and said that he
was certain that what he learned at the
last convention had paid him over 800 per
cent on the investment.
Good fellowship in the home towns and
cooperation are what we want to cul-
tivate," said Mr.. Diers. THE time is past
for retailers to use cut-throat tactics
toward one another, for even II by some
unfair competition you are able to force
a competitor to the wall, you will awaken
some morning and find another in his
place. You can make more money by
getting along peaceably with your neigh
bors. Other things which this federation
may bring about and which will help you
all in your business and help you in the
enjoyment of your lives are early closing,

credit system, cooperation in buying and

various ways in which a retail merchant
can present his wares to the public. "Ad-
vertising is the most vltally important
thing in any business, where you are try
ing to sell to the public. Too many people
do not seek out the people they want to
reach and then find a way to reach them.
You should never tire Of letting the people
know what you have to sell and that you
want their trade"

U. s. BEGINS SUIT
AGAINST STANDARD
OIL Of INDIANA

JACKSON, Tenn, Nov. 9.-After num-
Der of postponements thee suit of the
United States against the Standard Oil
company of Indiana, was begun here to-
day before Judge John +. -AcCal, in the
United States district court. Widely
known counsel, representing both parties
to the litigation, were present and a
sharp legal battle is promised. The de-
PENDANT company is charged with vioia-
ton of the antitrust law and, If convicted
on all of the counts, maximum fines OF
more than $3U,OUO,UOO are possible.
The announcement of ready for trial
today followed months spent in the as
sembling of a mass of evidence which
promises to carry the hearing well into
next month. During the trial the conten-
lions of the government will be advanced
by United States District Attorney Casey
Todd; w. S. Gregg, special assistant to
the attorney general of the United States
former District Attorney George Ran
do.ph and assistant District Attorney
YandalI Haun. The defense will be rep
resented by Chester G. Bond, of Jackson,
and r. w. Stewart, C. w, Martin and j.
S. Miller, of Chicago.
The bill pending is probably the most
yoluminous ever drawn in this state. 1t
includes l,54 counts and, in bulk, makes
volume of legal cap paper six inches
between covers. Specifically it is charged
that the oil company in question accept
ed illegal concessions from several rail-
roads of the south and west, made posi-
pie through the blind billing of petrol
cum and petroleum products from the
company's refinery at Whiting, Ind, to
Grand Junction, Tenn, and thence re-
shipped to various cities and towns in
the south and southeast
According TO the indictment five trans
portation companies participated in the
haul. First, the goods went over the lines
of the Chicago Terminal company as far
as Dalton Junction, Ind, and thence over
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois to Terre
Haute. 11ere the Terre Haute and Evans
vile railway conveyed the cars to Evans
VILE turning them over to the Illinois
Central at this point. The latter road
brought them as far as Grand Junction.
Then the Southern railway transported
the goods to points on its line.
In all, 5000 exhibits have been prepared
by the prosecution and several score of
witnesses have been summoned. Almost
an equal number, it is anticipated, will
he called by the defense.
In the event of conviction a maximum
fine of $4,000 on each count Is possible.
The minimum is $1,000 for each count.
