be some jobbers who object to this bill
for they naturally want to force the
retailer to handle their products, which
now contain coupons.
THE trading stamp is a parasite on
business and is doomed to go, and we
should pass H. B. No. AIT and thus
let North Dakota go on record as a

such schemes cannot prosper for the
benefit OF big corporations outside the
