REPUBLICAN TRADE AT HOME DEPARTMENT

Napoleon said that imagination rules
the world. 1t is the divine attribute of
the Imagination that when the real
world is shut out it can create world
for itself and with Il necromantic
power can conjure up glorious shapes
and forms and brilliant visions to
make solitude populous and eradicate
the gloom of dungeons.
Just supposine.
To better eXempify the range and
possibilities of the human imagination
we will give little Imaginary con
versation which took place in the coy
cottage of William and Alice Spencer
on a recent evening.
william, you asked me what !
would do if the butcher, the baker, the
grocer, the druggist, the shoe dealer,
the lumberman, the coal merchant the
hardware dealer and dry goods mer-
chant should pack up and leave town
on an everlasting vacation" said Alice
"Why, that's easy | would get my
goods from the mail order houses, of
course
No Catalogue House Credit.
But" persisted William. suppose
you were broke as uSualE'
ooh" said Alice, that's so. | could
not get credit from the catalogue
houses: neither could inspect the
stock and select the best, nor could !
take anything back and exchange It,,
as in most cases, and if there was any
thing broken would have to file a
claim with the railroad company, ana
it would take the better part OF n
year to settle it, if at all.
And supposing you wanted some
thing in II hurry" suggested William.
"That's 50. said Alice. Il would
have to stock up like lumber camp,
as it takes from two weeks to the
end Of time TO get anything from those
mail order concerns. And, william. |
would not want TO buy meat by mail;
| want to see what kind ! am getting.
Well, we would just have to live with
out meat that's all.
No Garden Truck by Mail.
Garden stulf--yes. we would want 1t
fresh: no, not by mail, thank you. And
bread-your mother could make that,
as you always said your mother could
make better bread than |. My. but !
hope the baker won't go. thought
Alice cheered up when William
smilingly reminded her this was but
an imaginary absence Of the town mer-
chants
Mountain Home Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1915-1946, 1917-11-03

But the CHEEKY smile on Alice's face
lasted only Il moment. rs William tan
talizingly inquired how about getting
shoes for her dainty little Chicago
feet
Shoes" cried Alice "Whoever heard
of any one with pride or corns buying
shoes without first trying them on
yes, trying on mostly everything in the
store? And then what about getting
soled while you wait? Oh no; we must
have a shoe dealer anyway" answered
Alice
William Becomes Excited Too.
Then William took the floor and
bodied forth the following words OF
wisdom;
Yes hardware; sure might borrow
"A pound of nails or couple OF screws
from Brother Charles, If he had them.
but have you any idea. Alice how
heavy nails and screws and hardware
are? No? Well, have. and freight
bills on that class of stuff are ruinous.
No. Alice: "A town without a hardware
store is bum town, and If our hard
ware man is going to move | am too.
And, besides, we want a lumber yard
and coal yard. don't want to buy
lumber and coal in car load lots.
But. william, this is only imagi'
nary" said Alice.
No Dead Town For Him.
~ y,tIa Hon pnntinnnI
william: should this imaginary bust
ness become real and the retail cata-
logue houses put our local merchants
out of business and force them TO
seek other locations I'd be with You.
I'd go, too for who could or would
live in dead town. We couldn't"
And. come to think 1t over. VIII
liam, | believe those mail order con
Germs are encroaching upon our rights
and the rights Of our local merchants,
and | for one am willing to join with
you and the rest of the citizens OF
this community in an effort to adjust
differences that will rebound to the
welfare of the entire countryside, EN-
bracing all the people-men. women
and children"
The Small Town Killer.
Notwithstanding that this is only an
imaginary situation, it is too true
that a condition Of this sort Is to DO
experienced in thousands Of the small
er towns and villages in this country
unless some radical change takes
place among consumers In checking
the growth Of the small town killer
the fast forming retail trust.
Why not profit by the Imagination Of
Alice ana william?

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Ameri-
can and British government officials
today continued conferences with
silver producing interests for con
tracts that would virtually mean gov.
elnment control of the market for a
year at less than the present rate
OF SIS cents an ounce. The govern
ments will use part and release the
rest for regular industry The pur
pose is to hold down prices for coin
age in the face of heavy foreign sill
yer purchasing competition.
This plan does not contemplate
the cutting off of supply to jewellers
and other users Of silver, since
the government would use only part
of the metal under contract for coin
age and would release the balance
for normal industrial purposes. One
of the chief results would be to
place restrictions ON the acquisition
of silver by Oriental countries.
where greatly enlarged demand for
silver coins has been caused by com
mercial activities of the war
More than 74,OOO,OOO ounces of
silver we're produced IN the United
States in 1916 and this years output
promises to be greater. Director
of the Mint Ray Bakers report shows
that the government used 1S,S14,OOO
ounces for coinage during the year
ending June 80 and probably will use
2O,O0O,000 ounces this year
