The Mail Order Trust

(By Congressman c. H. Tavenner.)

~ and insidiously that the great
public is as yet almost unaware of
its presence, a new trust is ex-
tending it's tentacles out over the
Already it's strangling grip is tight
ening about the million small town
and country merchants who are the
backbone of national prosperity.
The mail order trust has capita
liked women and child labor. 1t
has capitalized prison labor. 1t has
capitalized misfortune. 1t has capt.
talized vice. 1t has turned all these
things into dollars which
should have found their way into
the tills of the country merchant,
instead of flowing into the trusts
Wall Street hoard.
One mail order house recently in
creased it's capital stock from $780,
900 to $4O,0OO,O0O. A new $1O,-
100000 merger of mail order
houses has been formed. Wall
Street financiers, including the Nor
gan banking firm, has had charge
of both these financial operations.
Still another mail order house, with
s. acres of floor space, made
net profit of $17,O00,O0O last year.
It is evident that the greedy
eyes of the great mail order finan-
siers are turned upon the entire re-
tail business of the United States,
outside of the great cities. 1t is
also plain that gigantic trust is
rapidly forming. The small retail
merchant is facing ruin. That the
grip of the octupus is already be-
ing felt is shown by the population
statistics. Nearly 1000 small towns
lost population in the census of
1910.
1t is declared that something
must be done by immediate legisla-
ton, or the parcel post will not be
the complete blessing it ought to
be. 1t is asserted the solution of
the problem will be in the form of
Z heavy tax on mail order business.
This tax would, it is contended, tend
to stop the expansion of the mail
business, and to reduce it's present
formidable size. The money thus
collected would be spent for road

Little Alton Parks Hurt

Little Alton Parks, the son of
Mrs. James Parks, who resides on
Academy street, while in a wagon
with two or three other boys this
afternoon, about three O'Clock, fell
from the wagon, his head striking
the improved pavement with con-
siderable force and causing wound
that was at first feared to be a
conclusion of the skull. The acct
dent occurred on Race street right
at the corner by the Phillips Hard
ware Co.'S store, and the little fell
low was taken into Browns Phar-
macy, where his wound was treated,
and later he was taken home in
an automobile
His escape was very narrow, as
he fell between the wheels of the
wagon, and was probably saved
from being run over through the
of the boy who was
driving, who managed to stop the
wagon in time to prevent it.

Fishing Greek Items

One of the worst storms that has
ever visited this section swept
through Saturday. The fine new
residence of Mr.. Hansel Tyler, that
is being erected by Halle Creighton,
contractor, was blown eight feet
from the foundations, and flattened
to the ground, causing a loss of
several hundred dollars. Mr. Creigh-
ton began work at once to rebuild
the house on the same site. This
is the largest house on the Island.
Another new house, nearly COM
pleted, was also blown several feet
from the foundations; several small
buildings were torn to pieces, Chin
neys were blown down, windows
broken, and other minor damage
done. Almost every yard in the
middle section of the Island was
stripped of part or all of the shade
trees. Several boats were eapsized;
all the wagons standing outside
were wrecked; most of the stores
suffered much loss from water, and
travelling was almost impossible for
awhile, until the wreckage was
cleared away.

Statement Of Vim. h. Anderson

In view Of the various in .Ccura-

attempted assault last Saturday, Mr..
VIM. H. Anderson, superintendent
of the Anti-Saloon League, submits
the following statement:

to have the stenographer leave, as
he wished to talk to me. l COM

up close to where I was sitting and

and dragged him to the door to
have somebody call the police. 1
did not strike him, and used no vio-
lence save to choke him little to
quiet him, but as he struggled and
fought, he struck me once under the
loft eye, cutting the cheek with the
setting of ring he wore. He did
not succeed in inflicting any marks
with the whip. We were. neither
of us off our feet, and there were
no witnesses until after had taken
him to the door.
"The following language was used
in q signed letter, published in the

lection by certain charitable orga-
nizations of certain gifts from a

statement concerning the awakening

You Don't Belong to The Twentieth
Century.

What are you doing in the TWEEN
tieth century? You went out of
style when electricity came into
use.
sOnce we gave heed to you, but
that was when we believed only in
things which we could see and
handle
Then superstition guided magma
ton and intolerance shortened our
perspective
In an age of bigots you would
have willing ears and an approbat-
ing audience. But now we have
no time to waste upon you. We
cannot hear your pessimism. Our
ears are filled with chirping of
pneumatic crickets riveting steel
beams, fifty stories overhead-with
the chugging of rock drills-with
the whir of dynamos, the buzz of
the trolley-the crackle of wireless
telegraphy-the tinglipg of phone
bells
The earth is eager with new i'm
pulses. Man has entered a higher
estate, but you refuse to behold it.
While We scan the heavens for
further planets you search for fall
len stars.
Nothing is perfect. Even the sun
has its spots, but they are outbal-
anced by it's light.
The world is still filled with
wrong and injustice and cruelty; the
strong continue to capitalize their
opportunities. The hard task
maker still wrenches the last posi-
Bile drop of sweat and surge of
strength from his people.
There's many a stain and smirch
on the robe of morality.
But you misinterpret the wide
spread awakening to social truths.
You translate the sweep Of re-
form into a wave of destruction.
When a nation acknowledges its
economic inequalities, frankly dis
cusses its political corruption and
demands higher standards for bust
ness and industry and living, it is
an earnest of better ideals, not an
indication of retrogression.
America is on the up-grade-the
signs of the times are hopeful.
When a commonwealth begins to
diagnose it's weaknesses, when COM
munities awake to the realization of
their shortcomings, better tomor-
rows are on the way. The beast in
the open has little chance to prey.
Intelligence is rapidly destroying
the hiding places guarded by Puri-
tanism.
We have grown wise enough to
perceive that prudery is the ally
aud ahetior of1Mantn nness-a;n -sais=
ease, but you would have US think
that we are losing our battles in
the very hour of victory.
The world is constantly growing
cleaner and better. The breed is
improving. We are gaining siren
9Th physically, mentally and ethi-
cally.
The field opportunity broadens
day by day.
The might in right constantly be-
comes more evident, but the law of
competition continues to operate
the best will always prove their SUI
reriority over the inferior.
No Elan-made legislation will up
set the rule of survival of fitness.
The half-hearted, the sullen, the
shiftless, and the witless can never
share equally with the earnest and
the determined land the alert ,anG the
courageous.
Stop tugging at the coattails of
progress; you can't delay our adj
vancement
We know hat all things are pcs
your pessiln:sm has no weight
against the ev:deLoo of an ascendant
destiny.
Catch the spirit rf the hour or
prepare for failure.
If you don't bei;eve III your saii-
Grafton we won't Relieve in you.
