E. NJ Cousins, Of Portland inter
state traffic attorney, said that towns
and cities are made OF unmade by
railroad rates and that city can
not grow against adverse rates even
under the most favorable natural
conditions.
1t was the unanimous sense of the
convention that every effort be made
to have the legislature retain the
present peddlers law as any repeal
would be detrimental TO all mer-
chants.
Mr.. Fred Jobelman, Of Astoria, ap-
peared before the convention and
asked its endorsement for the bill
now pending before the legislature to
appropriate money for the Astoria
Centennial celebration which is to be
held August 10 to September 9, in
elusive. He was enthusiastically re-

After adjournment the delegates
were invited to The Illihee Club where

OF the Oregon R. r. commission, ad-
dressed the convention on How the
Railroad Commission Can Assist the
Retail Merchant" He opened his ad-
dress with humorous delineation OF
how the many claims from the small
er places originate. But to bring to
the attention Of the commission,
lapses in service on the part Of
agents and train crews, is entirely
right and proper and this should be
done promptly while the matter is
still fresh. The powers of the com
mission are limited to a degree but
arc definite and can be quickly in
yoked with little or no cost or diff
Guilty. Many disputes may be avoid
ed by studying the freight schedules
and tariffs and this should be done
to avoid unnecessary friction.
Henry W. Meyers led the discussion
on "Tne Best Kind of Advertising for
the Retailer" as Mr.. Herman Wise
Of Astoria, who was to have led the
discussion was unable to attend. He
said the first thing was good goods,
accompanied, Of course by the right
prices Comforts Of all kinds for the
customers, prominent, we'll dressed
and up-to-date store windows and
honest newspaper advertising. Diff
ferent speakers brought out the fact
that in the smaller places, having a
large country trade, the circular let
ter proves better than the newspaper
and several other methods are also
found to be efIlcacious which In the
larger places would be considered en-
tirely too antiquated. The advertis-
ing must be suited to the condition.
The Mail Order Evil and How to
Offset the Mail Order Advertising. =" by
c. II. Burkholder, of Cottage Grove,
was the next subject. He said the
first thing is to be a real merchant
and not a mere seller of goods. Ad-
yertise to counteract the ads of the
mail order houses. Have good
goods and tell your customers about
them. Have good windows and keep
them up-to-date. Keep in touch with
your customers personally, be courte-
Gus and endeayor to show them that
you can give better values and that
they can choose the goods them
selves. Many cases can be cited to
prove that much of the stock of the
mail order houses is really too high
in price when quality is considered
and on the other hand many people
send to the mail order houses because
they find too much cheap stock in
their local stores and not enough
good goods.

dressed the delegates on "The Retail
Merchants Relation to the High Cost

While 1t is comparatively easy mat

A definite cost Of handling must be

Theodore Roth, president Of the sa-
lem Business Mems League, led the
discussion on How to Sell Goods at
a Profit" Receiving the highest
price paid in the city does not neces-
sarily mean that one Is making a pro-
IT. Taking ones own living out OF
the business without charging It to
yourself is not the proper method.
Pay yourself a living salary and
charge all purchases to your own ac-
count. Do not buy thing simply be-
cause your competitor buys stock
but on its merit alone. Elevate the
quality Of your stock and your ellen
tele will become an army of boosters
for you. Staples with a fixed retail
price are one of the bulwarks Of the

it's" No mans credit is quite as
good as the cash, no matter how good
his past record may be for contin-
gencies may arise at any time and
discounts are given to encourage
prompt payment. Keep a good rec
ord with the wholesaler by paying on
or before the time set and do not
acquire the habit Of being a few days
behind. One of the disadvantages Of
long credits, extended by the whole
salers and manufacturers, is that one
is easily persuaded to overload by an
enthusiastic salesman. And then one
easily secures the designation of
"plunger' among the wholesalers and
the result is greater or less diff
Guilty in securing goods and the dan
ger OF having your stock deteriorate.
j. T. Stockton addressed the con
vention and was heartily applauded.
He said that in the nine years of his
business experience in Salem, his
losses through giving credit had
amounted to less than ee-quarters
OF one per cent and that in many
cases he was glad to lose the money
as 1t had benefited people who needed
It. Life Is not for the exclusive pur-
suit Of the, dollar and kindness rem

GALLOWAY
SAYS IT IS
REASONABLE
DISCUSSES INJUNCTION AND SUS.
TAINS RAILROAD COMMISSION
IN ORDERING A SPUR MAIN
TANNED AT EISENHOWER

The court, after a careful consid-
GRAFTON of the evidence and the law
that it believes applicable thereto,
holds that the order of the railroad
commission is not unreasonable and
should be sustained" said Judge
Galloway this afternoon in a rem
dering Of an opinion in favor of the
commission in the case of the South
ern Pacific Railroad company against
the state railroad commission.
The suit was instituted by the COM
pany to set aside an order made by
the commission requiring the COM
pany to install and operate a spur at
Eisenhower The company alleged
that Eisenhower is sparsely settled
and that it is but a short distance
from Roseburg, d good road connect
ing the two, and that its citizens
could secure ample railroad facilities
from the latter place. The company
further contended that the order was
contrary to the state law and that it
was in violation of the Fourteenth
amendment of the constitution of the
United States.
Within Law, Says Court.
In the opinion of the court" con-
tinued Judge Galloway, "the law
creating the railroad commission and
under which it acts affords ample
authority for such an order. The
court is not called upon in this cause
to determine what is the reasonable
service for Edenbower but the ques-
ton before the court in reviewing the
order Of the commission is whether
or not the order in controversy is un-
reasonable. The testimony of the
plaintiff tended to show that the or
der was unreasonable. On the other
hand, the testimony of the defendant
was to the effect that the order was
reasonable The order being such as
reasonable men might well differ
with respect to its correctness cannot
be said to be unreasonable. Neither,
in the opinion of the court, does not
order work a deprivation of property
without due process of law. The
injunction is therefore dis
solved and the order of the railroad
commission will stand"
