FAIR TRADE.

A good deal is being said and writ
ten just o about what is termed
@fair trade" which has nothing to do
with the tariff, but which deals with
certain trade practices which are in
feresting and important.
Tho men who are active in the
movement maintain hat the owner of
I'm article has the right to say at
what price it shall be sold. In other
words, the manufacturer of an arti-
Gle can. without being subjected to re-
fraint by the courts. require those to
whom he sells goods for distribution

not sell the goods except at certain
specified prices. and that he can en-
force that contract in the same man
e that other contracts are enforced.
The United States supreme court
has passed on this question in the fol-
lowing language:

figure without defeating it's own
purpose by either signally falling
to maintain the fixed price, or
putting the individual manufac-
turer out OF business. In either
case il fails to restrict cOmpeti-
ton.
A great deal of argument has been
advanced in support of tho theory
that the manufacturer should have
the right to fix prices in this manner.
In the first place it is pointed out
that h cutting Of prices of Il standard
article injured the business of tho pro-
duccr. If one retailer cuts the price
Of n well known article his competitors
sell at a reduced profit. or possibly
a loss. OF he must discontinue the
handling Of that particular article. 1t
is easy to see how a short period OF
price cutting, therefore, ran destroy
the results Of the labor of years in
h other side of the subject has to
do with the interests of the
Some consumers are benefited for a
time by tut prices. The man who
buys a standard article for fifteen
dollars when the customary price is
only a few persons benefit from these
cuts, and the general public is apt to
be injured by the resultant forcing
of the article from the market and
the substitution Of something not
standard, and something which is less
valuable in proportion to price.
Suppose that JOIN Smith is in the
business Of manufacturing axes. He
makes the best goods that skill and
money can produce. His goods arc
honestly made. and the time comes
when Smith axes are known all over
the country. and demanded by almost
everyone. Then some shyster begins
to cut the price. He makes a leader
Of them, and sells them at cost. or a
little below cost, in order to attract
people to his store. All other dealers
must meet the competition or quit
handling h goods. In either case
the manufacturer suffers. If the deal
ers cut prices as their neighbor has
done. they do not care to sell the
goods, for they must make a profit to
live. Sales fall off. If they do moi
wish to engage in the price cutting
war they must drop that article IN
tirely. and presently Smiths axes.
which are just as good as they Yer
were, have disappeared from the
shelves of most merchants. The man
ufacturer suffers from the action Of
q. cut-throat. The public, not being
able to buy Smiths Xes buy others,
not SO we'll made, not SO we'll known,
not so we'll worth the price. The net
result is that few merchants have
temporarily made large sales, a hand
full Of customers have bought axes at
less than they cost, n an honest
manufacturer has been put out of bus
mess and the great public has been
deprived Of the opportunity to buy a
good article at a fair price. Clearly
this sort Of thing is not in the public
interest.

LAME slowly turned white. She

She could not believe also thai she
heard them with SO little emotion.

she looked down at the written mes

face darkened with resentment and
modification. He could be very ugly
