1t would be well to stop right now, Mr. Business Man, and do some
this fall and winter. There is n time to be lost if you want to protect
your interests and hold your trade.
One great mail order house alone, according to n article in a
catalogues. That is just being sent ut by n house alone, and stats.
tics tell us there are rs different mail order concerns in the United
States.
Now if n house alone sends u the enormous number of five
million catalogues, how many do You suppose will be sci ot by the
whole 228 concerns combined?
How many OF these carefully worded, handsomely printed and very
anuring catalogues will be mailed to country people right here in our
W community, ven to people in this DOWNRIGHT to your WI us
toner's?
Isn't it fair to assume that almost every farm house, and many of
thu town houses, will receive n or more of these catalogues?
And ISM it again fair to assum that the people are going to paw
over those catalogues, and look at the attractive pictures of the thous-
ands of articles, and read OF the "marvelously low prices" at which these
goods are sold?
And do you think there are many who IAN resist the temptation
to send for ome of those yer aluring bargains" especially when
they are led to believe that the goods are sold by the mail order man
for less than what you charge?
Knowing that o be just exactly what a great many of II country
and town friends will do unless measur are taken to protect u local
firms in their legitimate territory, We ask you, seriously what are
you going to do about it?
This office wants and stands prepared to do what it a to pro-
tect you and other local business firms from the constant encroach-
ment OF these nero mail order houses who are doing % much
toward demorahzing local trade conditions, but we a not do it alone,
o without your cooperation.
The question is, if this paper fights for you ire you willing to fgat
for yourself?
There is IN effective remedy for this menace, if you car to apply
it, and n which has proven successful and highly profitable in other
communities.

New-York tribune., 1915-07-09

From star Correspondent OF The Tribunel
Lyon Mountain, \. l., July s.-A
New York process server and Clinton
County sheriff armed with a writ OF
attachment spent a long afternoon
picking flaws in the scenery from the
front steps of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw's
camp, on Chateaugay Narrows. 1t
rained very hard, but neither MRS.
Thaw nor her dancing partner and
champion, Jack Clifford, invited the
strangers in.
Mrs. Thaw lay in her balsam scented
bed, crying occasionally when the feel
ing of persecution fired her. She
would sit up, shrieking her defiance
of New York justice; then her maid
would come running with medicine TO
quiet her again.
If you want to pick up the bed, too,
and carry it across the lake and wrap
her up warm, you can have her. said
the valiant Jack, driving his wood
choppers axe into the side of the
porch as he advanced to meet the
sheriff.
It was pretty bit of stage business.
Then Jack took up his position on the
front steps. The sheriff went no
further.
At 3 o'clock william j. McGibbon,
Of Chateaugay, announced that Mrs.
Thaw was physically unable TO obey
the writ of attachment issued by Su-
preme Court Justice Hendrick, of New
York City, calling for her presence i'm
mediately to answer for her contempt
of court in not appearing Tuesday.
DR.. McGibbon arrived late in the af-
ternoon, after messengers had searched
the mountain highways for him all
day. He stayed with the patient for
an hour, and then made the following
statement:
"To Clinton County Sheriff Sir:
have just seen Mrs. Harry X. Thaw at
her camp, at Chateaugay Lake, and
have decided. after a thorough investi-
cation into her present condition, that

The Convention Delegates
Agree in Caucus to Aid
Bracket Plan.
UPSTATE TO GET
SENATE CONTROL
Rcapportionment Backers Insist
They Have a Majority to
Carry Scheme.
From a stan Correspondent n, The Tribune J

From stan Correspondent ~ The Tribunel
Albany, July S.-Most Of the Demo
cratic delegates to the Constitutional
Convention caucused to-day and de-
cided to accept the programme Of ex-
Senator Edgar Truman Bracket, the
insurgent Republican leader Of the CON
vention, and fight with him for reap
portionment that will give New York
City control of the Assembly and leave
the Senate controlled by upstate.
This already had been agreed to by
Senator Robert F. Wagner, on behalf of
the Democrats, as announced in The
Tribune to-day.
Il will meet the Democrats half way
and more" said Mr. Bracket when in
formed Of the action Of the Democrats.
If the Bracket strength is what the
Saratogian's followers say it is, reap
portionment by the convention is
certainty. they claim 10 have between
thirty-fve and forty of the eighty-nine
upstate Republicans. The Democrats
number fftytwo, so that giving the
Bracket contingent thirty-fve. the
combined forces command eighty
seven, a plurality OF three.
Bracket men assert that on the final
showdown a large number of the
twenty-seven Republicans from New
York City will be with them. thus in
suring the success of the plan-and
talks with New York Republicans bear
out tins assertion.
While Llhu Root, president Of the
convention, and other leaders have
fought the Bracket plan every inch of
the way. there is feeling here that
the battle is lost, and that what resist
ance Messrs. Bracket, Wagner and
O'Brien receive will be in the nature
of graceful Withdrawal rather than a
finish fight.
The Democrats. through Judge
O'Brien, expressed their reason for
Joining forces with Bracket in this
statement: "lf in body of gentlemen
like this one cannot get n-political
reapportionment, then where in good
ness can one get it? II it cannot be
obtained here it is hopeless"
Herbert Parsons and other Repub-
licans from New York City feel that
some measure of justice in the way of
fairer legislative representation should
be given to the city.
When you get away from the one
man one vote proposition you get into
a hopeless muddle," said one prom
inent Republican. Until New York
City gets her lust share of representa-
tion. at least in the Assembly she will
continue to be at the mercy Of the
rural districts. which do not under
stand her wants. however well inten-
toned they may be-
Democrats are going at the PROPOSE
tion in real earnest. At the caucus a
committee was appointed. consisting Of
Senator Wagner, Judge O'Brien and
al" Smith, minority leader of the AS
sembly, to promote the movement
