WILL THIS COME ABOUT?


A United Press story yesterday an
nounced the formation of a s65,OOO,-
600 corporation merging the interests
of 600 five and ten cent stores
throughout the country. one man,
it is declared, already controlled 2S6
OF the stores.
Does this news signify that trust
methods may some day be applied to
the retail business of the country as
wei as to the manufacturing busi-
ness and other fields wherein COM
binations are now all powerful? Is
it possible the decision by the su-
preme court in the trust cases has
thrown down the bars so that "reas-
orable" combinations in restraint of
trade may be formed everywhere. If
so what will the outcome be?
The subject is one that admits Of
wide possibilities, it must be admit
ted. Until now the retail field has
been pretty free from trust operations.
i is the one section of the business
world where competition has prevail
ed quite freely. Within recent years
trust methods have been applied al
most universally 10 the manufactur-
ing end and often TO the jobbing
field. But there has ever been d heal
thy rivalry between retail stores and
i has saved the day. The people
have known Of the trusts and have
felt their influence indirectly. But as
long as the concerns with whom they
have had direct dealings have been
conducted upon a competitive basis
they have endured the situation.
It is rather startling to think of the
results that would follow the general
application Of trust methods TO the
retail business, in the event such
situation should ever come about
Presumably stores would become
mere depots for the handling Of goods
and the number Of establishments |
would be greatly reduced. As there !
would be no competition it would not
be necessary for an establishment to |
have a good location. If for in
stance. the Meier g. Frank company
should come to handle all the dry |
goods for Portland the store could |
b located on one street as well as
upon another. II would not have to J
be in the heart Of the business sec
ton. What effect would such a state
o. affairs have upon realty values?
Would there not be danger that some
o. the metropolitan skyscrapers
would become deserted and stand as
relics Of the past much as do the cliff
villages Of the southwest?
It is also a matter Of speculation
as TO how long the people would
stand for the monopolization of the
entire business world. 1t seems safe
70 say that the public would not long
endure such a condition, for the SER
vice would not be as good as it is
now under competition. Very prob
ably there would be defects and abus-
es such as governmental supervision |
could not cure in which case there
would arise q demand for actual gov !

THEY NEED SOME COIN.

Portland people have been telling
residents of Gillian, sherman and
Morrow counties what to do to make
their farms pay, Now a prominent
resident of Gillian returns the favor
by saying that the way for PortIan l
to help the dry counties is to lend
the farmers money with which to
purchase hogs and hog fence so they
may take up closer farming.
1t sounds reasonable too.

WAGES FOR WIVES2

Mrs. Clara Neddaugh of Detroit. ad-

compel men to pay their wives wages
or a salary for their work in keep

union scale of wages for wives?
Would failure to pay the wages, from

FEUDISTS AT WAR.
Nails Driven in Turpentine Trees
Cause Death of Three.

PENSACOLA, Fla, September D.
Nails driven into pine trees boxed for
turpentine are said to be the cause OF
the bloody feud between the CooIeys

three of the Cooleys. A member of the
Cooley family leased turpentine timber
to the Gays and when the first nails
were found one accused the other oil

is that when the "chipper' strikes a nail
while at work the hack an ak.

The nails led to much talk of shooting

Cablegram Confirms Death.

4 cablegram received at the headquar-
ters of the Seventh Day Adventists here
today says that the Rev. o. T.. Davis,
superintendent of the British Guiana mis-
sion. was murdered during the second or
third week in July. The message. which
was from Rev. e. c. Boyer of California.
who had been sent to succeed Mr. Davis.
contained no details.
Rev. Mr. Davis was in Washington two
years ago attending the general confer
ence of Seventh Day .Adventists held at
Takoma Park. For three years previous
he had been engaged in the work among
the Indians along the Demeraras river,
on which Georgetown is located, and
where he had established his headauar-
ters on his arrival in British Guiana.
He was small in stature and, accord
ing to ". 4. Spicer, secretary of for
eign mission affairs at the Adventist t
headquarters at Takoma Park, was
particularly Jealous In his labors. He
comes from near Seattle, Wash.
Mr.. Spicer said that only several
weeks ago Mr.. Davis notified the mis-
sion headquarters he had received an
invitation from an Indian tribe located
some distance up the Demararas river
dHO Iidl lie proposed SHOTtlN TO leave.
After completing this visit he said he
proposed to press on for two days
more into a territory which a white
man had never penetrated. as the In
dians of this section are Caribs.
Feared for His Safety.
Several days ago a cablegram was re-
ceived by Mr.. Spicer from Georgetown,
which stated that Mr.. Davis had not re-
turned to the headquarters there, and
grave fears were entertained for his
safety.
Mrs. Davis is now in Georgetown, ac
cording to MT. Spicer. Together with her
husband she had planned to come to this
city shortly. as another man has been
sent to British Guiana to take up the
work they were giving up. Mr.. Davis
furlough was to begin as soon as the new
missionary arrived in the field He had
planned to take a medical course In one
of the colleges of the Adventists and to
later take up the effort of medical mis-
sionary in the foreign field.

this is a question Of trade and commerce
and not of politics nor dominion.
He is as bitterly opposed to anneXa-
ton as the yeriest tory. and he knows
that. annexation is not a possible out
come of freer commercial relations. His
task for the next three weeks will be to
convince the voters that the fears of the
conservatives are groundless and that
Canada's future greatness and prosperity
rest upon a broader trade polly than has
