Tho advantage and actual neces
sity of patronizing tho local mer
chant, 1b so well 'known and has
been so frctiuontly emphasized In
this department that It requires no
reiteration, Tho main thing Is:
"How can tho need for homo buy
ing ho Impressed upon tho pcoplo7"
Tho hoard of trade can well under
take this work. It can first of all,
stlmulato tho merchant himself to
good business methods, good ad
vertising, tho carrying of an ade
quate stock and of Its proper dis
play and placing. Mall order buy
ing has made progress In many com
munities because tho merchants
themselves have done little to turn
tho public mind to their stores and
little to hold trade onco secured.
The battle for business must be
fought out on its merits. People
will 'buy at home when they can buy
Just as cheaply as somewhero else,
provided they are convinced of tho
fact by good adverlslng, good sales
manship and good goods. All things
being equal, there Is a tendency to
buy at homo because It Is more con
venient. The mall order houses will
overcome this tendency chiefly by
better advertising. Tho merchant Is,
of course, confronted by the competi
tion of unfair advertising which
overstates the quality of tho goods
and understates the price by failure
to take Into consideration freight
cost, delay and lack of credit con-'
venlences. To offset this, somebody
must make the public acquainted

COUNTY CHAIRMAN'S LEAGUE
BEGIN FIGHT
Ileports of Chairman of Republican
Party From All Counties Show
Iteniarkalilo Oains by tlio
Regulars.
Tho new County Chairman's
League, which is to tako up the fight
In Pennsylvania, under the direction
of a sub-commltteo of five, that will
work In conjunction with Congress
man J. Hampton Moore, Chairman of
the National Republican Congress
ional committee of Pennsylvania,
took possession of the headquarters
provided for them 'by Chairman
Moore last week.
It was a notable fact that a large
majority of these chairmen are young
men. Several of them are in their
twenties. Many are in their thirties.
They are enthusiastic and believe
thoroughly In the political doctrines
of the Republican party.
Chairman Moore was In executive
session with the sub-committee, last
week, for more than an hour and he
agreed to do anything within his
power to assist the league by advise,
co-operation and the distribution of
supplies, in its fight for the Repub
lican ticket throughout Pennsylvan
ia. The reports of tho chairman on tho
situation in their respective counties
constitute the most authoritative and
interesting review of the campaign
to date.
United States Marshal, E. H. Por
ter, of Pittsburg, who Is acting
chairman of the Beaver county com
mittee, was most scathing In his de
nunciation of the Bull Moose move
ment In the 24th district, which he
said Is controlled entirely by the old
Quay leaders and saloon bosses.
"In a sermon last Sunday," said
Marshall Porter, the Rev. C. M. Lip
plncott, of tho Methodist Protestant
church In our town, preached a ser
mon on the Armageddon soldiers
thereabouts, in which he said that if
they ever got Into power ho was
"afraid the Lord would have to look
after his own Interests."
"Our Bull Mooso County Conven
tion was organized by Lawrence Se
brlng and James Cunningham, who
are avowed non-believers. They
opened the meeting with prayer,
sang 'Onward Christian Soldiers,'
nominated two preachers, closed with
the benediction and then went out
and laughed about it.
"This man, Sebrlng, said to mo
the other day that he prided himself
upon being a character assassin.
"That's tho kind of Washington
party leaders we havo up in Beaver.
You may mention names and quote
me. I stand for everything I say.
"Beaver county Is good for the
whole Republican ticket from top
to bottom. We have the finest
marching club thero in the State of
Pennsylvania."
County Chairman C. II. Young, of
Newcastle, and C. E. Carothers, of
Washington, assured Congressman
Moore, that tho twenty-fourth dis
trict, comprising Washington, Law
rence and Beaver counties, was safe
for Congressman aiatthews and the
full Republican ticket.
"We havo both a Democratic and
a Washington party candidate
against him," said Mr. Young, "but
when you remember that these sarao
peoplo wore refused two years ago
and that Mr. Matthews carried tho
district by a substantial majority,
you can see why wo are confident of
carrying it by a larger majority now
that they aro divided.
"Free trade doesn't mako any hit
at all In Lawrence county, hocauso
wo havo tho largest tin mill in tho
world thoro. and two others that
aro very Important. Tho two mills
In my own town employ 4,000 men,
and In addition to that thero wore
four hlast furnaces started specially
to supply their needs, which employ
2,000 men.
"It Is a well known fact that this
growing Industry which now em
ployes a total of 17,000 men the year
round, paying $10,000,000 a year In
wages, was made possible by tho Mc
Kinloy bill of 1891, which Increased
tho protective duty on tlnplates from
ono cent to two and two-tenths cents
a pound. Prior to that tlrao wo Im
ported 331,311 tons of tlnplate and
produced nono. In 1912 wo produc
ed 800,000 tons of tlnplato and pro
duced none, in 1912 wo produced
800,000 tons ot tlnplato and im
ported 2,000 tons. There Is no more
striking Illustration ot tho value of
protective tariff than tho American
tlnplato Industry.
Mr. Carothers said that tho same
practical demonstrations of protec
tion were going on every day In
Washington county, where they have
large tin, glass and steel works.
"Our county," said Mr. Carothers,
"stood third among all the counties
of Pennsylvania for increase In pop
ulation in the last ten years. Nine

"We have no doubt whatever

not twenty Washington supporters
In my own county, have any desire to

David B. Johns, chairman of the
Allegheny County Republican com
mittee, incurred the enmity of Fllnn
by refusing to follow Roosevelt, out
side the party, after he had voted
for him as a delegate In the national
convention at Chicago.
"We are going to carry Allegheny
county for Taft, ' said Mr. Johns,
"and the four Republican candidatjs
for Congress, In tho Pittsburg dis
trict, Stephen C. Porter, M. Clyde

E. M. Vale, Cumberland County
Chairman, reported Improving condi
tions, although he admitted that sit
would be a hard fight in his county.
Omar Fisher, Clinton County
chairman; Henry C. Qulgley, Centre
County chairman, and C. E. Troxell,
Cambria County chairman, all re
ported a steady decline In Bull
Moose sentiment, and a general In
crease in Republican strength, due to
tho prevailing prosperity.
"We were a nttlo doubtful about
Cambria, In so far as President Taft
was concerned," said Mr. Tooxell,
"but within the last two or three
days we havo decided that It Is not
only possible but entirely probable
that tho county will go for the Pres
dent. I feel sure that Congressman
Jesse L. Hartman will be returned to
Washington."

WHAT A BOAItl) OF TRADE CAN
DO FOR THE RETAIL MER
CHANT. In a recent issue, tho "American
Lumberman" gives sonio very good
Ideas concerning what a Board of
Trade can do for tho reall mer
chant. First of all it urges tho re
tail merchant to enlist in the work
of the local board of trade, if no
such organization exists, to origin
ate a movement for tho formation
of such a body. All classes of com
mercial men aro greatly benefited by
tho work of tho board of trade but
It is doubtful If any class Is any
more benefited than tho mercantile
class, whose prosperity and very ex
istence aro dependent upon the local
community and tho attitude of the
people toward tho town in which
they live.
Somo of tho ways suggested for
tho board of trade to holp tho re
tall morchant aro as follows:
Securo proper tolophono service.
Compel reasonable railroad serv
ice.
Regulate and minimize soliciting
schemes.
Work out a scheme- of co-operative
delivery.
Secure tho 'best posslblo postal
facilities.
Induce tho people of tho com
munlty to buy at homo.
Protect tho merchant In tho en
actmcnt of ordinances.
Mako tho town tho convention
center of Its territory.
Encourago good roads and de
mand proper road expenditures.
Co-operate with tho local gov
ernment In public Improvements.
Conduct a campaign for early
shopping at tho Xmas season.
'Protect tho merchant In tho town
against Hy-hy-nlght concerns.
Securo now Industries thereby
Increasing tho buylug population.
Organize and glvo impetus and
effect to early closing movements.
Co-operate In tho creation of spe
cial days to stimulate home buying,
