Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 38, Number 82, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 10 July 1906 — Mail Order Houses. [ARTICLE]

Mail Order Houses.

There are but few editors in our state who have not made a vigorous and continuous fight against city mail order houses. This has been done in the interest of home merchants and without price. If the editors of the land had received regular advertising rates for all they have said against these enemies of the country merchant they could now be wearing diamonds. Now the department store man appreciates advertising space and is willing to take all the average country editor has for sale and at a good price. What other class of business or professional men would refuse business to help your friends, especially as many of said friends never seem in the least disposed to return the compliment or even appreciate it —Manatee (Fla.)
