International Falls Press: Both the Ecmidji papers .are on the side of better government and are vigor- ously urging their readers to vote in favor of abolishing the saloons in the county by means of the county option law on August 14. Baudette and Spooner will roll up a majority in favor of county option in spite of the fact that the saloon gang in those cities think they have all the voters under their thumb and will compel them to do their bidding. Blackduck American: The sooner the saloons are wiped out of the en- tire county and it is freed of brew- ery and distillery influence, the soon- er will the entire county start on the road to prosperity and greater de- velopment. For years prior to the ousting of the saloons from Black- duck their baneful influence in re- tarding development of the country tributary to this village was easily discernible. On August 14 voters will be given an opportunity to vote on the question of banishing the sa- loon from the county under the coun- ty option law and there ought to be a tremendous majority in favor of a dry county. REJECTED ADVERTISING. During the past few months the Pioneer has rejected .thirteen adver- tising contracts from out-of-town concerns whose lines would be in di- rect competition with local business houses. The aggregate amount in dollars and cents is approximately $500.00. This does not include the one-time ads requested by such con- cerns, but contracts: desired. The lines represented include dry goods, drugs, furniture, electrical fixtures, auto tires, men’s clothing, hardware, women’s wearing apparel, quack doctors, patent medicines, flor- ists and musical instruments, In each instance the Pioneer advised them that it would not accept busi- ness which would directly compete with local merchants. Our local institutions are entitled to this protection and many of them appreciate it. Some have never given it a thought while others have never known of these conditions. Then again there are the indifferent kind, who think it makes no difference. To those we wish to impress the fact that if it pays the out-of-town mer- chant to buy space in your local newspaper, it might pay you as well. It is a thought which, if properly considered, should make you, Mr. Business Man, a regular advertiser. CAUSE OF WORRY. The giant U-Boat Deutschland, which made history by cruising from Germany to America with a $700,000 cargo of merchandise, is scheduled to start back to Germany today with a cargo of ‘badly needed supplies for the Fatherland. If, as the promoters of the commer- cial agency that built the Deutsch- land claim, thiz is only the beginning of undersea commercc between the two countries, the British blockade not only bhas been permanently pieiced, bui CGreal Britain faces a crisis in her commercial export trade, according to what is being said and done in London, Some time before the Deutschland arrived, the merchants and manufac- turers of England were frightened by the seemingly authentic report that Germany had stored up $1,800,000,- 000, or nearly two billion dollars worth of goods ready to dump on the markets of the world after the war. The Britishers organized at once the Association of Trade Prospective so- cieties, with 50,000 members and adopted a resolution urging the gov- ernment to help head off the flood of German goods through the establish- ment and operation of a ministry of commerce. Should the undersea commerce ven- ture of Germany, while the war is still in progress, prove practical on a big scale, England will be power- less to crush the Teutonic commer- eial competition and will, it is be- lieved, face a serious situation. in dealing with her world markets, par- ticularly after the war and somewhat immediately.
