TRADE At HONE Is the SYs.
TEN
Men Whose Dollars 90 to Mail
Order House Destroying Value

OF course we wouldn't think OF
insinuating that you are a muir
derer, because we know you would
not wantonly take the life of a
fellow being. But how about your
efforts toward killing this town
your own home-by patronizing
firms at a distance when you can
buy the same goods just as cheap
ly from some Of our local mer :
chants? OF course you are not a
murderer" but how about being
a ''killer."
How would you like to be COM
PEELED to go or send to some 9TH
er town or city every time you
want a paper of pins, or a spool
Of thread or a sack of tobacco?
'Iwould be a frightful nuisance.
wouldn't it? And you wouldn't
want to live in such a graveyard
town, anyway, would you? And
you would feel just like selling
your farm or town property and
going to some place with little
life. wouldn't you-that is if you
could sell, and if anyone else was
foolish enough to want to settle
down and invest in a dead hole
Now, do you think it is just fair
proposition-or even to your own
interest as a property owner-to
make a convenience of the local
dealer when you want pins or a
smoke, and then send your trade
that is worth having away to some
galoot who doesn't care whether
you live or die, just so long as he
gets your money? Do you?
Yes, you unquestionably have a
right to buy your goods wherever
you choose. No one will ques-
ton that for moment. And if
you have a good horse for sale at
a reasonable price, your neigh
bors and friends have an equal
right to pass you by and send a.
way for some scrawney scrub that
costs just as much and is not half
as valuable as yours. Holding the
bag is great sport. isn't it? But
you wouldn't like it. would you?
How much an acre can you get
for that farm, or how much can
you realize on your house and
lot in town? Fair price Ell? Well
just suppose every store in this
town should be suddenly closed
up and moved away, what would
your farm OF town property bring
on the market then? Your own
intelligence tells you that the
nearer a piece Of property is to a
live and prosperous town, the
more valuable that property be-
come. Now just why do you try
to kill off the life and prosperity
of this town and reduce the value
of your own holdings by sending
your money out of town for goods
you can buy just as cheaply at
home? Perhaps you can see some
wisdom in such course, but we
cannot and we have viewed the
question conscientiously from ev-
cry angle.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-OHiCial
denials from all sides fall to down
the persistent reports that Ambassa-
dor Gerard, returning from Berlin, Ia
bringing direct word from Emperor
William asking President Wilson's
intercession for peace.
Despite the fact that Count Bern
storff, the German ambassador, has
stated he knows positively that Mr..

and the state department was moved
today, by the persistency of the story,
to issue an official denial, II circu-
lated widely in official circles and
was seriously discussed as a passI-
bllity.
The dramatic arrival OF the Ger
man war submarine U-53 at Newport
with package Of dispatches for
Count Won Bernstorff Just before he
has an audience with President Will
son Monday only served to add to
the circumstantial chain Of events
upon which those who believe the
current story Of Mr.. Gerard's home
coming base their expectation that
some momentus development Is
about to take place.
The German embassy tonight dis
claimed any knowledge Of the nature
Of the dispatches, or the mission Of
the submarine in American waters
The only tangible element connected
with the story is complete set Of
