GOLDEN RULE is
GOOD IN TRADE,
Guy From Those Who Help You
Along Is the Precept.
% YOUR TRADING At HOME.

Object When Your Neiehbors Fail to
Patronize Your Business-Some In
stances Cited.
An earnest plea for reciprocity In
trade is made in an editorial article
southwest.
The points made are we'll worth the
attention OF the men deficient in pub
lie spirit who spend their money away
from home without taking the trouble
to ascertain whether or not the local
merchants can serve them as we'll as
those of the outside cities. The ar
ticle reads:
"Grocers in small towns expect that
the good farmers of the community
shall trade at home rather than at
the catalogue houses in the large far
away city. The farmers. too. think
that it is hardly right for the mer-
chants to send to some commission
house in a large city for their sup
ply of potatoes.
Both are right. Yet we find farm
ers buying from mail order houses
and merchants in many cases buying
from distant places products OF the
farm that might better be bought at
home. Not alone this. but how many
engaged In the grocery trade overlook,
the Importance OF buying furniture.
clothing. iewelry and other things from
their brother merchants at home?
How many in the furniture and hard
ware business buy groceries from some
distant house? How many of them buy
their clothing from other than home
stores?
AT an implement dealers state CON
vention In one of the western states
the catalogue house competition WIS
being considered. One of the dele
gates was strong in condemnation of
those who bought implements from
the nail order houses He happened
to throw his fur lined overcoat over
the back of 81 chair. and plain TO be
seen was the label of one of the noted
catalogue houses of Chicago. Still he
mad the audacity to appear in state
convention and criticise the farmers
who bought farm implements from the
same concern from which he had pur-
chased his oyercoat instead of buying
II from his home store. Thus we find
the helpful principles of reciprocity ig.
nored by many inconsistent trades.

on trial behind closed doors before

engineer named Hipsich. was con-

engineer named Wolff was sent to jail
for two years: a merchant named Won
Hack and Max Schulz's housekeeper
each received three years
Max Schulz was accused of using his
profession of ship broker as cover
for corrupting shipyard workmen and
getting them to betray German naval
secrets. He was for a long time close
" watched by detectives during mis-
frequent trips between Hamburg and
Bremen AT which ports ten German
warships were at the time under con-

employed him out of the country He
is regarded by the German naval au-
nected with an institution whose activ-
tiles cover all the Shipyards and
arsenals of Europe.
The Judge in sentencing the accused
said that their arrest had broken up a
group of spies whose activities were
dangerous in the highest sense to the
safety of the empire. Hipsich partic-
ularIy, who had been twelve years en-
p1oyed as an engineer in one of the
principal naval shipyards, was able to
collect designs and Authorization from
all the German yards. This he deliv-

Max Schulz. whose sweeping admis-
sions had established the guilt of both
himself and the others. had organized,
according to the judge. a network of
spies throughout Germany. These re-
ported directly to the English informa-
ton bureau.
The severity of the sentences which
have to be served in a penitentiary,
and not in a fortress, as is usually the
case, indicates how gravely these cases
of espionage are regarded

weekly. and received another 500 in
advance to cover his expenses.
The merchant, Won Mamack. accord
ing to the testimony, furnished docu-
ments showing how the steamers of
the Hamburg American line and the
Northh- German Lloyd are to be used
in the event of war. as well as data in
reference to the Diesel motor, which is
now building for the navy at Nurem-
