OBJECT TO PRACTICE OF MANUFACTURERS
Trying; to De-rlse Means to Prevent
Them from Selling Goods Direct
to the Retailer, Cnttlngr th
Jobber Ont.
A nieetlns of the Iowa nnd Nebraska
Wholesale Grocers' association was held at
the Grand hotel yesterday. The sessions,
aa Is customary with the association, were
held behind closed doors. It was stated
that the purpose of yesterday's meeting
was to consider the relations of Jobber and
manufacturer. From Secretary Mehlhop It
was learned that several manufacturers are
in the habit of dealing direct with the re
taller, thus depriving tho Jobber of his
profit, and how to prevent this was the
principal subject of discussion.
Regarding a statement published In a
local paper that the meeting waa for tho
purpose of devising a scheme for co-opera-tlvo
buying by the association Secretary
Mehlhop said it had not the slightest foun
dation and that such a plan would be abso
lutely impracticable.
Yesterday's was tho first meeting of the
association since the appointment of Mr.
Mehlhop as permanent secretary and the
establishment of permanent headquarters
in Council Bluffs. The attendance was

of the association, being represented:

NOMINATE MACY BY ACCLAMATION
Harlan Man for Fifth Time the Can
didate . for Jadire. .
Judge N. W. Mucy of Harlan, Shelby
county, was renominated yesterday morn
ing by the republicans of the Fifteenth
judicial district to succeed himself on the
district bench. This makes the fifth nomina
tion for Judge Macy, who Is now complet
ing his sixteenth year on the district
bench, having been elected four terms in
succession.
The convention was called to order by
H. H. Roadlfer of Logan, chairman of the
Judicial committee, who named H. Webb
Byers of Harlan as temporary chairman.
H. I. Foskett of Shenandoah was seleoted
as temporary secretary. On motion of
Judge J. R. Reed of this city the temporary
organisation was made permanent. Judge
Reed then moved that Judge Macy's nomi
nation be by acclamation, and this sugges
tion was carried out with much enthusiasm.
On being called to the platform. Judge
Macy expressed his thanks with one of his
characteristic addresses: He said many
public officers by their long continuance In
office seem to feel that the public wns
under an obligation to them to retain them
continually in office. "The republicans of
this district are not indebted to me, the
burden of debt la on me, and this fifth
nomination, coming as it does, makes the
debt greatly Increased."
The work of the convention closed, the
gathering devolved Itself into a love feast
and short addresses were made by Judge
Reed, Judge Green, Judge Lewis, Chairman
Byers, Frank Shlnn and others, all of whom
paid a high tribute to Judgo Macy.
.The Judicial committee for the Fifteenth
district wus selected as follows: Audubon,
George C. Cosson; Cass, C. B. Clovls; Fre
mont, F. R. Shannon; Harrison, 11. II.
Roadlfer; Mills, A. B. Cook; Montgomery,
E W. Mills; Page, Earl Peters; Pottawatta

DES MOINES, June ..-(Special.) The
annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Des Moines A Fort Dodge Railroad com
pany was held In the office of Carroll
Wright, president of the Rock Island com
pany, in thla city this afternoon. Norbett
liolnshelmer, secretary of the directory
board, and Harry L. Falk came from New
York, having with them the proxies of a
majority of the stockholders of the com
pany and sufficient to control over the vot
ing strength of the bonds which are held
by the Rock Island Interests. The voting
developed that the brokers who have been
gradually accumulating the stock had con
cluded to wlpo out all Rock Island Influ
ence in the company at this time. The
following were elected directors: Richard
C. Lorsch, Walter L. Crandell and A. C.
Doan, all of New York. They will suc
ceed W. II. Stllwell, Carroll Wright and
John I. DUle, all representing Rock Island
Interests. This was all tho business done
at the meeting and all that was before It.
While none of the representatives here
would talk for publication on tho plana of
the company, this much Is now known,
that the company will pass Into the con
trol of the Minneapolis ft St. Louis rail
road and that this company will own prac
tically all the stock. But the Rock Island
interests still hold 12,000,000 of bonds
against the line and these bonds have a
voting power In the annual meetings. Tho
Minneapolis is not in a position 'to liqui
date the bonds, and the Rock Island is In
a position to foreclose and get possession
If thnt should be desired. But It Is the
Intention of the persons Interested to effect,
some time between now and tho first of
next year, when the lease expires, a new
lease' or tracking privileges, so that tho
Rock Island will continue to operate the
terminals here and have use of the track
from here to Gowrle. where a connection
will be made with the Rock Island's line
to Sibley. This arrangement will leave the
Minneapolis with a line Into Des Moines
and control of tho road from Augus to
Ruthveni This will mean some extensions
of the line In order to make a more per
fect system for the Minneapolis.
