was reelected presdent-eeneraI.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-04-21
HAS LITTLE HOPE.
FEARS ANARCHY.

Gomez believes that while the retire
ment of Diaz is an ultimate necessity
for the complete restoration of tran
guilty in the republic, a state of an
archy and lawlessness would be likely
to follow any announcement or assur-
ances that Diaz would abdicate the
presidency.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-04-21
SHOULD BE LAST MOVE.

It is said Gomez believes the assur-
ances that Diaz would resign should be
given only after all other conditions of
peace are arranged. which he thinks
would occupy at least a month, during
which time the country would be re-
turning TO its normal condition.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-04-21

He reviewed the policy of a pro-
tective tariff and insisted that con-
ditions today are such that a high
tariff is unnecessary to encourage
the building up Of great industries in
the United States. He said the
democrats do not intend to abandon
custom houses, but favor the levy
ing of customs duties for revenue
purposes only.

Don't blame the children-they

growth takes all their strength.
1t is the mothers of all such chill
dlen who are to blame, for ii they

The clothing, dry goods, boot and
shoe merchants aple the groeers can
bllld IN a mail order business here
as easily as it is done in the large
cities, although not on so large a
scale. Cairo has 4 natural field for
il as it has for the wholesale trade.
When people can send their mail or.
ders 10 Cairo aud have them as salts
factoriIy filled as in the larger cities
thew will not send them further away.
They will send them to the nearer
point.
When the Cairo consumers of mer-
chandise see the local merchants do
inc large business, filling orders
for a wide scope Of country below
and all around this point, they must
conclude tnat this il the place to do
their buying. If they are strongly in
the habit of patronizing mail order
houses they can continue the habit
without sending away from home.
"The hair of the dog to cure the
bite Fight the devil with fire. /"
The antidote for the nail order loss
Of our local merchants is to engage
in the mail order business With are
large stocks they carry this is easily
done. and until it grows to large pro-
portions additional help will hardly
be needed. Muca Of the work attend
ing 1t can be done in the leisure time
of employees ana employers. The
large advertisements appearing in the
local papers that give prices of mer-
chanSise should he followed by the
statement that mail orders will be
promptly filled at those prices, and
on gools not too heavy or bulky to
pay freight on at the price, that the
express or mail or freight charges
will be paid in advance by the shipper
These papers have large circult-
ton in the territory neightoring to
Cairo, and the advertising thus ham
died would be largely increased III
value to the advertisers. Attractive
catalogues of few pages should be
issued occasionally, giving prices
with freight prepaid. They should
be ISSUED as often as revision OF
prices is necessary. In some lines
OF trade it would be necessary to
enange The catalogues with the sea
sons, giving new styles In cuts. 70

reasonable compensation county or

MAIL ORDER CURE
BY RI. r. Potter.

Why do not the leading Cairo re-
tail merchants IN different depart
ments OF the trade conduct a mali
order business2 This suggestion con
tains the remedy or offset for the evil
so much complained of by the local
merchants, that Of sending money
away from home for goods that can hc
bongltl acre just as cheaply, People
everywhere in this country have ac
quired the mail order habit, and there
is no reason why the merchants of
Cairo should not profit by 1t as wen
as those OF the large cities. The lead
ing retailers of st Louis and Chi.
cago have mail order departments
that are very largely patronized. Why
not Cairo retail merchants nave the
same2 Several liquor houses here do
a very large mail order business, and
1t is as much natural point for mail
order houses in other lines OF trade
as II Is for the liquor trade.
