big stores in the matter Of price, for
they buy more in one order than you
buy IN q year. and the consequence is
that they could sell goods at the same
price for which you buy them
The chance. and the whole and only
chance, that the small man in business
has is to develop service and not try to
meet prices. The big store is built on
the price-cutting principle In every
big store there is one element which Is
lacking. and Is impossible for them 70
develop, and that is the personal re-
lation between the buyer and the seller.
When a customer goes into Jones Nam
moth Dry Goods Company he never
sees Mr. Jones, in fact II is very likely
he does not see the same clerk twice
He goes there purely on account Of the
price, and Jones realizes this and de-
veIous the price attractions accordingly.
ZONES cannot hope to be able to call his
patrons by name; he cannot hope to
remember the little things they Ike or
do not ike, and he can never hope TO
develop any close personal relation with
his customer. so he appeals 70 him en-
tireIy through his pocketboOk- The re-
suit of this Is that large percentage
Of people do not patronize Jones because
Of these very points.
The small merchant, with his personal
acquaintance with and close relation
70 his trade, can catch this class Of
people and can hold them In just one
way, and that is 10 remember their lit
tie peculiarities and TO give them serv-
les OF such high character that they
will be willing to pay the small extra
charge he must make to get a profit
This gives the small man the cream OF
the trade. 1t gives him the particular
people, and these particular people arc
the people who have money - crafty
their whims and are the most profitable
customers in the world. The big store
can only hope TO get the skinned mill
of the trade while the small man gets
the cream.
Let the little man develop this stor,

didate, Levi Bancroft The day after
the primaries the dispatches recorded
the fact that the Wisconsin insurgents
were insurging so vigorously that they
had nominated a dead man.
The State committee undertook to
make Charles Fl. Crownhart, a La
Follete man, the regular nominee, but
was enjoined by the State supreme
court, which ordered Bancroft's name
on the ballot, on the ground that he
had received the greatest vote in the
primary of any candidate who was
qualified for the position, the man who
received the greatest vote being dead
before the primary was held.
Monday evening the State commit
tee met to consider the tangle and
wound up by indorsing Crownhart,
who will run as an independent.
knowing it would be condemned in
some quarters for "bolting' and for
''irreguIarity," the committee never
theless took the plunge. It's action
will be reckoned a terrible crime from
the partisan standpoint. In reality
the committee merely did that within
its power to keep out of public office
a man who does not represent political
progress and good government and to
put into public office a man who does.

A JUDGE WHO SEEMS TO
AGREE WITH ROOSEVELT.

It has been difficult not to believe
that part of the Indignation over Mr..
Roosevelt's recent criticisms of the
Supreme Court is due to dislike of the
former President. 1t has been equally
difficult not TO believe that part of the
fear that the country is headed straight
for destruction and that courts
and Constitution Will disappear in the
general wreck, if some curb is not put
to Colonel Roosevelt's political activ-
ity, is manufactured for the occasion
and that deep down in their hearts
many of those who are holding up their
hands in horror at his sacrilegiOus
ways 90 home and sleep as if the insti-
tutions of the country were not in
peril
Recently Judge Frank H. Hiscock,
one of the ablest and most accom-
plished judges Of the New York court
Of appeals, speaking of the selection
of Mr.. Hughes for the Supreme Court,
said:
There is one consideration which
will make Governor Hughes appoint
ment 10 the Supreme Court widely &C
ceptabIe at the present time. Many
Of the cases which come before the
court OF last resort in this country
involve much more than the study
and application of mere abstract
principles OF law. They necessarily y
involve problems Of industrial and
social evolution and development
whereon a judge may easily find jus
tifcation for deciding a case in differ
ent ways. This is pre-eminently tr le
lust as the present time. Governor
Hughes has so established himself
I'm the confidence of the people al
large that they will especially com
mend his appointment and be graft
fed that he IS to take part in the dis
position of questions Of the character
which have indicated
In its way it seems that this should
be almost as offensive to those who
are shocked at Colonel Roosevelt's dis
sent from some of the decisions of the
courts as were the views which gave
occasion for their tremendous excite
ment. While the jurist does not say
in so many words that the courts mus
keep step with the spirit of the
times" he certainly squints that way
One of the reasons the public wei
coined with such enthusiasm the ap
pointment of Mr.. Hughes to the Su
preme Court was that it meant tn
presence on the bench of man fresl
from contact with the great problem
which the people are trying to worl
out; man, in other words-alarmin
as it may sound-who knows tha
abstract principles of the law" mus
give some heed to the spirit of tn
