The welcome reception which the commercial club committee re

here hopes of making it a grand success. 108 had signed the propos
ed articles of incorporation ami promised to meet at the Opera
House Monday evening to assist and do their part in the organization
of the commercial club.
Alliance must not stand still, fcihe must keep her place as the
leading town of western Nebraska. In order to take full advantage
of her opportunities she must have a live commercial club. The
movement has been started. It is open to every business man, pro
fessional man or owner of property in the city of Alliance.
The club can be made a success only by the co-operation of alt.
Personal feeling should be left out of the proposition, envy or strife
between competitors in business has no place there. The benefit de
rived from the club v. ill be fell by every citizen of the town. Every
bttsiuess, no matter whether large or small, will be benefitted.
At the meeting the articles of incorporation will be adopted ami
signed and the by-laws adopted, lie low we give the articles of incor
poration which have been proposed by the committee, and the by
laws. These are only suggstions. But they have been given deep
consideration nid thought and the committee believe they cover the

Iron of a Chicago mail order house
! until recently, thinking that she
(could buy 'cheaper than by patroniz-
ing home merchants. A few days I
ago she had her eyes opened to the
fact that she lias been paying more
for merchandise than the same goods
could be purchased for in Alliance
and will probably do her trading
nearer home hereafter, instead of
sending to a Chicago or Kansas City
house.
This Uy came to town, bringing
a bolt of cotton flannel and a pair
of knit gloves, bought of a mail or
der house. She went to one of our
merchants and. requested that she
might exchange these goods for
some that he had in stock. The
cotton flannel was too light In color
and the gloves were not the right j
size. The merchant declined to
make the exchange but showed her
that he had in stock Just what she
wanted. In so doing the prices
were compared. The price ticket on
the Alliance merchant s goods ehow
ed that he sold the cotton flannel at
eight cents per yard. The lady who
patronized tho mall order house had
paid eight cents plus freight or ex
press. The gloves were placed In
box and mixed with some that the
Alliance merchant had in stock. The
lady was then asked to pick out her
pair, which Bhe was unable to do as
they were the same as the others.
The merchant's price, as shown by
the marking on the box containing
the gloves:, was fifteen cents per

Western Nebraska Dental Society
Itenders Interesting Program
and Klecls Oflflcers
Alliance has been added to the list
of towns represented In the Western
Nebraska Dental Society. At the
annual convention of the society,
held at Bridgeport last Thursday,
the program published In The Dally
Herald of February 16 was render
ed, Including the banquet at Hotel
Bridgeport.
At the business session officers for
the ensuing year were elected as follows:

pair; the la.ly had .paid the mail or
der house twenty-live cents.
A lesson may be learned from this
incident that it pays to at least learn
the prices of the home merchant be
fore sending money to a mall order
house in a distant city; but there is
anctther lesson to be learned, fully
as Important as the first, and that
in that it Is to the Interest of all the
people of western Nebraska to build
up good, thriving towns in this part
of the coyntry. Kven if the differ
ence tn prices had been slightly in
favor of the mail order house, the
home merchant should have been
patronized. Aside from knowing
iust what you are getting at the
time you pay for it, it is, in the long
ruu. to the interest of the farmer
and ranchman, as well as the people
who live In town, to patronize the
home merchant first. He pays taxes
iven of the work done by chemical j here and helps to build up a town or
fire extinguishers. A Pyrene extiu
uuibher, which is ubou: the size of a
targe biccle pump, was j brought
fro:u The Herald olllce. Judge Bld
gell poured a piui of tuboliue on one
of the large tables and touclieu a
match to It. The flames burst up
ward for several feet but Chief Ho
nur. quickly extinguished the lire
with a fi-w shots from the extinguish
f-r, without the table being damaged.
A flashlight picture was taken aud
the meeting closed. The sentiment
seems to be entirely in favor of a
truck and the voters of the city will
' undoubtedly Instruct the city council
to purchase one.
