THE PtCTSBUBG DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 1891.
S
The Law on the Subject of Co-Operative
Associations and Their
Bights at Present,
SOME OF THEM NOW FLOURISHING.
One That Has Far Outgrown the limits of
the Building leased for Its
Accommodation.
LEGISLATION OX THE INSTITUTIONS.
Some Stiff Penalties Provided for Crookedness in
Their Management.
Judge "William "W. Carruth observes that
a formerly well and unfavorably known
character the miser has almost disap
peared from society. He does not say,
though, as he might, with considerable
truth, that the cause is that modern econo
mical environment offers so many induce
ments, either for investment in something
tangible that will earn money, or to put
surplush cash into savings banks, or to spec
ulate (sometimes gamble), that only a fool
or a farmer of the olden kind will lock his
money in an iron bos arid run the risk of
being tortured and murdered for it.
The judge runs over several columns
in telling people of small means how
they may invest safely in Govern
ment, State, railway and county bonds,
railway stocks, mortgages, etc., and
especially commends savings banks.
This is all well enough in its way, but he -does
not reach a class to whom saving is im
portant, and who can do little or nothing in
any of the different kinds of investments of
wnich he explains the working, and the
Anti-Poverty Society ha. so far, either not
put forth any tangible plan of operation, or
people who need help do not take kindly to
it. Doubtless the poor will always be with
us, but among them is a large class that
would like to reap something more than the
fecant result of unintermittent toil.
ADVANTAGES OP SAVINGS BANKS.
Savings banks are good institutions for
those who have stamina sufficient to allow
deposits to remain until they form a sum
sufficient for investment or active business,
but many people are lacking in this qual
ity. The Legislature of this State has pro
vided a plan whereby people of small means
may start co-operative stores, and tliongh
Forae of them, perhaps the majority, may fall
ty the wayside, as did tlio one started
"by colored people on Wylio avenue a
year or two ago, yet the leaven is
vorking, and in time tlie masses may
learn the value of combination as well as tho
people or largo means, who not only co
operate, but, as tho people know by tad ex
perience, earn- it so lar by means of mo
nopoli.t!e trusts and combines us to make it
tin anuinc ot tvrannv. Corporations are a
I'cce-Mty nowaaav. lor w ltnout tne accumu
lations of the wealthy we should not only bo
rcquued. as of old, to pay exorbitant prices
01 the necessaries of life, but would be with
out railways, teleeraphs, telephones, etc.,
and even monopoly frequently without in
tending it tends to tbe cheapening of articles
of necessity. The trouble is that most peo
ple arc so harassed in the struggle for exist
ence that they do not acquire sufficient in
telligence to control monopoly without
fctrangling enterprise. It is admitted that
even those political "bosses," Tweed and
fcheppard, were blessings in dis
guise. They have made the peo
plo of New York and Washington
richer than they would otherwise be.
Though, if the people of thoe cities had co
operated and done tho work themselves,
they could havo achieved tho same results
st much less cost.
A REQUEST FOB INFORMATION.
A sample of frequent inquiries comes from
Phillipnton, Clarion county:
"Please answer, to settle a dispute and en
lighten many of your readers, whether co
operative stores can legally sell good on
credit, or be Mied at law for collect ion of
bills."
The act of 1S77 is the one governing the
case. It was stated that tho Legislature last
winter had enacted some further legislation
on the su'iject, and Representative D. K.
Jones was said to be the man who could tell
sill about it, but 11 r. .Tones said it did not
concern tho act of 1S77 That act is entitled
one to encourage and authorize the forma
tion of co-opersiti ve associations, productive
nnd distributive, and under it any live or
more farmers, mecliatiics, laborers or
other persons may associate themselves
for the purpose of carrying on any agricul
tural, horticultural, mining, quarrying,
building, mechanical, manufacturing or
commercial business, or for the purposo of
luanuCictuung, cultivating, raising, trading
or dealing in all kinds of goods, wares, mer
chandise, chattels, grain, vegetables, roots,
fruits and other producc,or animals for sale, ,
food or other purposes, or for the purpose
of buying, selling, holding, leasing or im
proving lands tenements or buildings, and
limy adopt any corporate name indicating
their co-oporative character, and which has
jtot be'n previously adopted by any other
corporationformca under this act, provid
ed that the last two words of such name
&hall be "co-operative association." It is
not lawful to use In such name either the
words "society" or "company," and any vi
olation of tins proviso by any corporation
formed under this act renders each member
thereof personally liable for all its debts.
As the act covers 11 pages in the pamphlet
laws of that session, those who feel like as
sociating must examine its multifarious pro
visions lor themselves. They will find them
fcutlicieutly paternal for all purposes. Tho
ection bearing on the inquirj, however, is
lieru quoted. It is the eighth:
RESTRICTIONS OF THE LAW.
"That any such association may buy from,
sell to, and trade or deal with any of its
Members, or other persons, partnerships or
corporations, but all transactions shall bo
for cash, and no rredit shall be given or
taken, except that such association may con
tract lor and paj the wages and salaries of
its employes once in each week, in cash, and
except that such association may sell real
estate, improved or otherwise, in such
terms that at least one-fourth of
the agreed prico shall be paid
in cash at tho time of sale, and that not moro
than three-lourths of tho agreed price, to
gether with interest on the amount of
principal, interest and charges owing, from
tune to tune, at a rate not exceeding J per
cent per annum, may be secured by bond
and mortgage, or by promissory notes and
3nortgag-s; and may bo inado payable by
fixed and equal periodical iustullments:
1'iovidcd, however, that such association
may take or grant leases of real estate for
such terms as may be nirreed upon, but no
bucIi lease tor anv time exceedine one rear.
or creating a credit or liability forany sum"
ixceeuing ?jw, suau oe lawzui or vana until
ihe same shall be appioved by a voto
of tho members at any regular quar
terly meeting theioof: And provided
Jurthcr, that auyovedit given to any such
association in violation ot the proi isions of
this act shall cause a forfeiture ot anycredit
thus illegally given, and that a notice to
men effect shall be published by such asso
ciation on its letter and bill heads, adver
tisements, and other publications."
Sections provides that members aro in
dividually liable for debts of the association
lawfully incurred to the amount of their un
paid stock capital, and no more, but this
liiust be after judgment has been obtained
against the association and execution
thereon returned unsatisfied in whole
or part, nnd in case a member is made
to pay beyond his pro rata liabilitv lie may
sue the rest jointly or beverally, and recover
tho ratable amount due from each member.
The stock capital to tho extent or $23 be
longing to u member, who is a householder
and has a tamily, is not subject to attach
ment or execution, or liable m garnishment
for lilt individual debts.
3 UK PENALTY FOK CROOKEDNESS.
Among other piovisions the minutes of
the secretary are evidence of what is dono
at meetings. Such associations must hold
quarterly meetings in January, April, July
and October, at which reports or the asso
ciation's transactions must be made, and
any ofilcer knowingly consenting to any
lale statement in a report is to be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction
may bo fined not more than $1,050, and im
prisoned in the penitentiary for not more
than one year, or both, in the discretion of
the Court. Profits must be applied, first,
to the reduction of tho value of fixed
eioili and plant of the associa

tion, at the rate of 10 per cent per
annum or more: second, in the reduction of
preliminary expenses, if any, in tho forma
tion of the association, at a rate of not less
than 5 per cent per annum; third, in pro
viding for interest payment at the anneal
rate of 6 per cent on permanent stock, and
5 per oent on ordinary stock nnd reserve
fund. Such Interest is to be credited to each
member, but not paid until his stock is fully
paid up; fourth, in the formation or a re
servo fund, to which, also, all fines and for
feitures must be carried and made appli
cable to the equalization of dividend and
to meet any other contingency that may
arise, or to any other purpose voted by
members on the recommendation of the
directors; filth, in forming and maintaining
a propaganda and social tund, not less than
2J per cent of the net profits, to be so
placed.
But time and space would fail to tell all of
the provisions of this act, and It repeals
everything in this line inconsistent with it,
which, of course, is very comforting, con
sidering that to remember it all without a
list of exceptions is confusing to the lay
intellect.
SEVERAL STOEES SUCCESSFUL.
Under this law co-operative associations
liave flourished variously, some growing
rankly for a time but being finally attacked
by blight which withered them. The Wylie
avenue colored people had a good time for a
time and finally decided to eat their store,
and no doubt enjoyed that part of the pro
gramme as well as any other. There is a co
operative store in McKcesporr, and
another in the Seventeenth ward, this
city, which may bo doing well
for nught can be found to the
contrary. There Is one in Mansflold said by
a resident of the town to have been formed
mainly for the working people of moderate
means, and which appears to be flourishing
luxuriantly. The proprietors started busi
ness in a building which they rented, and
which they now find inadequate to answer
the demands of their increased trade, so
they have decided to erect one of their own,
and it is to be a good one. The members do
not appear to be blowing their horn, but the
evidences of prosperity in a venture in
which every man is his own store-keeper
arc said to be abundant.
Agriculturists, horticulturists, real estate
dealers, etc., do not appear to have formed
uny associations contemplated by the law
of 1S77.

Popular opinion puts men nnd things to
the severest tests. Klein's celebrated, brand
of "Silver Age" Pure Rye Whisky has stood
this test for many years, and it is gaining in
public favor every day. Physicians indorse
and prescribe "Silver Ago" in preference to
all other whiskies, knowing its qnality can
always be depended upon. Parties leaving
the city for the summer should take along
