Leather Good.
R. T. Patterson of St. Louis was made
the president' of the National Association

ceed Milllngton Lockwood at the election
htld In the assembly hall In the Rome

Of Dallas, Tex., was elected second vice

M. W. Byers and Charles A. Lent of
'ew York City were re-elected secretary
and treasurer, respectively.
V. I. Elllck of the Omaha Printing
company was made a member of the
board of control of the national order.
He was called upon for a speech at the
morning session and after thanking the
ussoclatlpn for the honor, expressed the
pleasure of Omaha In having had the
convention here.
Omaha la Praised.
' The morning session was taken up with
speeches of the various officers and delo
gntes praising Omaha and thanking the
local association and citizens for the good
entertainment afforded them while here.
It wfttf the consensus of opinion that the
Omaha, convention was the most success
ful from the standpoint of business done
and enlcrtaiiimont feature that the na
tional association had ever held.
The real business of the convention was
practically concluded Wednesday when
the reports of various committees were
heard. After the newspaper reporters
were evicted from the convention hall a
report of an Investigation made by the
committee on leather goods and novelties
M-aa read. This report covered a canvass
of the association's members in an effort
to decide upon a profit for such articles.
Repliea to postcards sent out by the com
mittee show that sixty out of 122 mem
bers carrying in stock leather goods ant
novelties "secure double the cost of their
goods, while the balance are satisfied
with a profit ranging from 25 per cent to
10 per cent on the selling price; six con
fess to a 23 per cent margin."
Profit la Varied.
.The committee report continues: "Bug
gestlona from four sources are made that
a better percentage of profit should be
made on leather goods. These sugges
tions come from stationers who sell at a
profit of from 33 to 40 per cent. That
their desires can be realised Is evidenced
by the sixty dealers previously men
tioned who are marking their goods on
4 50 per cent basis and getting It. Our

One man of the association was found
by the committee who believed that tho
best profit In leather goods Is made by
dealers who sen to women. Not ornce
women who buy commercial supplies,
only," he adds. After tho Investigation,
bowever, the committee believes as great
a profit can be gotten out of men cus
tomers. Jealous of Draaaiata.
"The committee asked the convention to
know "How, in a 'free country, leather
goods could be kept from drug, cigar and
news stands," declaring Us Inability to
cope with such competition.
One tnervber of the association, accord
ing to the committee report, relates that
he Is about to move Into the "shopping
district" and add "ladies' goods" to his
line and he wants to know how much
profit he should get
vised, "add C6 per cent to the cost
price, giving ft p-oflt of 40 per cent In
the selling price. The committee declared
It would be difficult to get more than
that owing to department store competi
tion. .;
; The report closes, "Summing up the
whole matter, this eanvass reveals the fact
Cnd warrants the conclusion of you.'
committee that the learner goods busi
ness Is a desirable side-line for the
stationer." ,
iThe report of the committee on loose
leaf devices followed, which also Included
an investigation regarding prices and
profits. A question, "Have you experi
enced a tendency to cut prices," w
asked the members of the association,
some of the replies to which were: "Yes,
but association work has greatly reduced
It"; "By some pirates"; "No, It Is not
necessary, except In Chicago."
Hie report of the committee on carbon
paper and Inked ribbons Included a Bug.
gestlon that peddlers be put out of the
business. The committee's 'investigation
resulted In the finding that the consensu
of opinion was that the profit In this
line Is satisfactory. '

Wobdard Puzzled
Over Strange Mail
Leiters, accompanied by a newspaper
cut of the Bee building, with the city
hall In the background., that have reached
the postmaster in Omaha at Intervals
from various rarta of the country, are
perplexing the postofflce authorities here
to some extent. The most recent, letter
of this kind coming to the postmaster Is
from E. Runkel, 51 East Seventy-ninth
street, New York, it reads: "enclosed
please find picture supposed to be a view
from your town. Would you be kind
enough to state If this Is correct by writ
ing 'yes or 'no' on the picture, and re
turn It to me. Thanking you In advance,"
etc. The cut Is clipped from some Ger
man newspaper. Across the back of the
cut In blue pencil Is written, "A 37,"
Assistant Postmaster Woodard is at a
toss to know what the game may be. He
says a number of similar letters have
been received lately from various parts
of the country, all containing the plc
ture of the Bee building with the city
hall In the background. He believes it to
be a guessing contest of some hind. He
says the postofflce authorities here arj
not supposed to answer such letters ask
ing for information.
Negro Slashed in V
' Quarrel Over Dime
Henry Ruwe. a laborer, received a
dangerous wound over the heart at I
o'clock yesterday morning whjen a negro
slashed him with a knife. Ruwe said the
cutting occurred in front of the Victoria
hotel, iao Dodge street. The wound was
very deep and nearly eight Inches long.
The Injured man lost a great deal of
blood and when he staggered Into the
police station he was unable to tell a
connected story of the affair owing to
his weakened condition. The police sur
geon dressed the wound. At the Victoria
hotel it was said Ruwe ate at the lunch
counter when a negro came In and ac
cused him of taking a dime from him.
After the two had left the room one of
the waiters saw them outside and saw
the negro flash a knife and strike Ruwe.
When the waiter started for the dqor the
negro fled and Ruwe started for the
police station.
Equip Creameries
with Paper Bottles
D, T. Wels of the Wels Manufacturing
company of Monroe, Mich., who with his
brothers control the huge factory pro
ducing the Wels filing devices, Is very
much interested In Omaha, not only from
a standpoint of a manufacturing sta
tioner, but also In the creameries. He
has what Is considered one of the biggest
propositions In the creamery Industry a
paper milk bott'.e. . ...
The machines are now being constructed
whtch will make them automatically.
Omaha creameries will be equipped with
them. ' ;
F. D. waterman, president and trca
surer of the Waterman ideal Fountali
Pen company of New York, who is a
prominent delegate at the national con
vention of stationers and manufacturers,
is trying to start te.itlment throughout
the country against the ravage of the
proposed bill before congress to wipe out
restricted retail prices.
If the Oldfleld bill Is passed, he de
clares, the large department stores and
catalogue mall order houses which now
are underselling other retail dealers will
be able to Increase their business and
almost wipe out that of other dealers.
"The retail dealers," he says, "are
menaced by the great price cutting de
partment stores, mail order houses, chain
stores and other aggregations of capital
all over the country. These concerns, we
believe are back of the bill In congress,
working hard to secure Its passage. They
want to be able to cut the prices on
the hundreds of well known, big selling
articles which by law they are now pre
vented from selling.
Standard Articles aa Bait.
"It Is their scheme to- sell without one
cent of profit the goods of standard
values which people know through usage
and advertising. For instance, ingersoll
watcher, our fountain pens, Big Ben
clocks, safety, razors and all other price
restricted goods which give to the retailer
a living profit. They want to take the
great trade-murk articles which constitute
such a large part of the legitimate retail
dealers' business and sell them below the
known values.
"All these concerns," Mr. Waterman
avers, "make up on other goods what
they.,lose on the well-advertised, price
restricted articles. They want the laws
changed because so many of the nation
ally known specialties are being sold on a
price basis that puts the average retailer
on a level with the biggest, richest stores
In the land," he sys. "They want the
advertising that they get at the expense
of the smaller dealers and manufacturers
if only they could slash the prices of
these patent protected goods. They want
this bait to lure trade.
"The members of congress who favor
the pending bills," he declares, "seem to
think that price maintenance controlled
by the manufacturer is entirely in his
own Interest and that It hampers the
retailer and means higher prices to the
consumer.
"In reality the benefit that comes to
the manufacturer through fixed resale
prices is the' continuous support and
patronage of dealers who like to handle
his goods because a reasonable profit, is
certain." ,
