What Do Mail Order Houses Do for
You and the Town You Live In?

Columns have been written in tn,
local newspapers OF Nevada to show
the viciousness of the mail order
habit that seems to be firmly fixed
especially among the inhabitants Of
small towns and rural districts. 4

Gle and stands back of it with a guar
antee; that he is on the spot to hear
any complaint that may be made and
stands ready to see that the article IS
all the manufacturer claims for it, or
money back" A late report states
that Sears, Roebuck & Co. did a total
business Of $S,464,7l3 during the
month OF May, an increase of nearly
one million dollars over the same
month last year, and by far the great
Err part OF this enormous business
came from the. western farming and
industrial centers. 1t means that
hundreds OF communities were drain
ed OF that moun Of cash that went
70 build up Chicago to the detriment
# their own communities.
In these days OF standardized arti-
cles a purchaser gets just what ne
pays for. This applies equally to
automobiles as to furniture, sewing
machines, cream separators or ginS-
ham gowns. No farmer would think
of buying a horse from a picture, no
matter how highly colored the
chrome might be, but he will fall fer
a set OF SIX pieces of solid oak furI,i- /!

any patron of the mail order house
and spot the goods he has paid his

eously swindled in the transaction.
The victim OF the mail order habit
believes he is getting the advantage

cultivated by these concerns. Nothing

any OF the thousand or one things
that fill the pages of the catalogues
from these concernc and see what
you will get in reply.
With the exception of the stock
market, the mail order business is the
only business in which the entire cap
ital is advanced by the trader in adj
vance of the transaction. Further
more, it is a strictly cash business,
hence there are no risks, no bad
debts and no necessity for the need
to make immediate delivery to the
customer which means capital tied hp
indefinitely. Did you ever stop to
realize what it would mean to your
home town and county in the way Of
more taxable property, better streets
and roads, better schools and local
improvements if these millions sent
away, never to return, were invested
right here as they should be? What
would you say to your home mer-
chant if he were to ask you to pay III
advance for every article you pur-
chased from him insight and unseen,
and then be compelled to wait for two
or three weeks for delivery? But this
is what you do every time you send
for anything from a mail order house.
Do you know that there is not a
local paper published in any town in
this country but hat can get more

would but accept it, than it can get

THAW HAS ANOTHER

Court and Back Again After
Legal FOrmaIity.

Harry X. Thaw had brief breathing
spell in the open yesterday when he
was taken from the Tombs to the Su-
preme Court, on writ of habeas
corpus which was sworn out following
the decision of Justice Page, recon-
mtting him back to Matteawsn after
he was acquitted Of the conspiracy
charge.
The presence Of Thaw in court was
nothing more than a formality for the
writ directed Sheriff Grifenhagen and
Warden Hanley TO produce him IN court
Yesterday. lie was not needed. how
ever. Tor there had been stipulation
between counsel for Thaw and for the
state that there should be an adjourn
mcnt until Monday.
This adjournment was taken to give
the Appellate Division time TO decide
whether Thaw should go back to Mat
teawan or be returned 10 New Hamp-
shire, from which state he was extra
dited on the conspiracy charge. An
early decision is looked for and the
Thaw lawyers feel confident that il will
be favorable to him.
4 new legal point came up yesterday.
Sheriff Grifenhagen and Warden Han
ley are under directions to produce
Thaw in court under the habeas corpus
writ and they would hardly consent TO
his release even under order OF the
Appellate Division on the appeal from
Justice Pages decision until the writ
was vacated. As soon as the higher
court decision is given, if It reverses
Justice Page, counsel for Thaw will
first have to vacate the hsbeas corpus
proceeding before Thaw can be taken
away. However. this move would not
require much time.
