JOKE ONJHE JOKER
House of Commons Jester in
Hiding From Women.
BALKED SUFFRAGE PLANS
Sir Frederick George Banbury Has
Habit of Springing Surprises
on Parliament.
. Forritrn CnrroFriondrncp of Tho Star.
LONDON". February 22, 101,1.
Sir Frederick George Banbury, unionist
member of the house of commons for
the city of T^ondon, has a reputation as
a nag that today is proving embarrassl
ing to a measurable degree. Th esuffragists
are so eager to reach him that they
would readily cease all their heckling of
eahinet ministers if they could only llnd
Sir Frederick, but the member for the
city of iKtndon is in seclusion, and he
- will not trust even his colleagues in the
house with a knowledge of his whereabouts.
In the meantime, the women pur
sue the speaker and the cabinet members
) to their extreme discomfiture, and Sir
Frederick continues in hiding.
Sir Frederick made th? discovery that
to Introduce a clause into th? franchise
reform bill giving the votes to women
would make it necessary for the speaker
i of the house to rule the bill out of order
as going farther than was contemplated
f when It passed its second reading. He did
. this, and consequently the suffragists lost
the opportunity of testing the feeling of
the house on the question of women voting.
Made Suffragettes Angry.
I Their anger against Sir Frederick rose
. in proportion as the realization of their
defeat sank home, but by the time they
began to look for Sir Frederick he was
gone. So they turned their attention to
the members of the cabinet, who, compared
to the member for the city of London.
are quite innocent of responsibility
' for the defeat of their plans.
Sir Frederick Banbury has the reputation
of being the most successful humorist
in the house of commons. With
other things, he moved last year the
amendment, and arranged the trap,
which resulted in the temporary defeat of
the government on the financial proposals
of the home rule bill. He made the discovery
that the speaker would have to
act against a votes-for-women clause In
the franchise reform bill while hunting
up evidence against the bill. He felt the
measure was unfair to the cityo f London
in that it provided that voters must cast
their ballots in the constituency in which
they reside. Therefore he decided to oppose
it, and began his search for evidence.
He found also that as few of the
property owners or business men in the
city reside within the "square mile." the
members would, had the bill been passed,
simply represent the porters and charwomen
of the office buildings and banks.
Formerly a Stock Broker.
Sir Frederick is a retired stock broker.
Until recent months he was chiefly known
for his cheery speeches on all manner of
subjects, but never on any very Important
question. In the early days of & session
of the house of commons Fridays are
given up to private members' business.
By drawing it is decided what member
shall have a Friday to himself and on
that day he Introduces some pet measure
of himself or his party. The measure
must he passed before & o'clock or disappear.
These were Held days for Sir Frederick.
No matter what the subject, he
could talk for hours on it, talk It out in
fact, so that there was no possible chance j
of concluding the debate by the stipulated
time. He was seldom known to favor any
measure introduced on a Friday by a
private member.
Another favorite pastime of his was after
attacking the government fiercely to
cross the house and take a seat on the
front bench reserved for cabinet ministers.
Although these benches are reserved
for ministers merely througli courtesy,
private members never sit there unless
Invited. Sir Frederick, however,
found that by some old act of parliament
members for the city of Uondon have the
privilege, and on certain occasions he
takes pleasure in exercising it.
Alexandria's Coat-of-Arms.
Alexandria, Egypt, which has attained
notoriety recently on account of revelations
of municipal graft, has submitted
to the government a coat-of-arms which
has been subjected to much criticism by
patriotic Egyptians. The most prominent
figure in the design is a scantily
clad Roman maiden Moating on a raft
toward the moon. The meaning of the
design has not been explained by the city
fathers, and the people are left wondering
why a Roman and not an Egyptian
maiden should have been chosen for the
chief figure.
I<ord Kitchener has a reputation for
tackling any problem presented to him,
but lie has refused to play Solomon in
the present dispute, and has referred the
matter to the college of heralds in London.
These experts may he able to shed some
light upon the reasons for making the
Roman maiden Symbolical of the city
w hicli is now Egypt's commercial center,
and which was unco the intellectual hub
of the. world. If they cannot unravel the
puzzle they will he asked to submit a
design of their own which will typify
more simply the history of Alexandria.
Some of the opponents of the present design
have suggested designs embracing
a burnt library to symbolize the past,
and a cotton pod for the future.
Police Stop Petty Graft.
A Rood deal of sentiment and not a fewsovereigns
have recently been showered,
on a "Scottish piper." who appeared outside
Hampden House, the town residence
of the Duke of Abercorn, the night of the
late duke's death, and played the "lament."
it was announced in every Ix>ndon
paper the next morning that the act
was spontaneous on the part of an old
servant of the family, and the new duke
sent scouts out to discover the "faithful
retainer." He was found all right, living
in a court off Holborn, and taken to the
duke, who bestowed upon him a handsome
sum of money.
Since^hen the "laiment" hasibeen played
outside the residence of almost every
family of means or title In Ixmdon having
the slightest connection with Scotland
which had suffered bereavement.
It was being repeated at the doors of
the late Duke of Crawford a few nights
ago, when the police came upon the
scene and took a hand in the game. 1 he
piper, they discovered, was a street musician,
and not a genuine Scotch piper.
Street musicians in lyondon are allowed
to play only during certain hours, and
then only on streets where the residents
do not object to their music.
Fiction Names.
From the London Chronicle.
One can meet the famous names of fiction
as well as history in one's dailywalks?even
the most Improbable of
them. Take Dickens' works, for Instance.
Snodgrass was once a common enough
name In Kmglar.d. and in America bearers
of it still abound. Winkles can be
found in various parts of the country,
and at Kasthourne one can see a tombstone
inscribed to the memory of Samuel
Weller. Put most curious of all is the
case of Stlggins. for that name for a
canting humbug Is really a corruption of
Stigand, the pious archbls'hop who
crowned Harold, and as such has been
borne by many worthy men. A Chadhand,
by the way, can be found In' the
marriage registers of St. George's, Hanover
square.
The Hackman.
From Judge.
"Now that the motor bus is becoming
more and more successful," remarked
O'Beetle, "what will the hackman do?"
McFee adjusted his facial cdurtplaster.
"Why," he said, "he has already turned
barber, hasn't he?"

CO-OPERATIVI
VI?CONSUMERS
By Frederic
It la a patent fact that the high cost
of living: In the cities is added to more
by those middlemen at the consumers'
end of the chain of distribution than "by
those closest to the producer. In other
word9, the bulk of the gross profit on
articles of consumption arises from the
margin that the retailers add. The jobber
and wholesaler sell in such big lots that
their expense of selling a dozen eggs and
their profit together may represent less
than a cent a dozen. On the other
n ti/1 V\ v* A i fl ( 1 a?? m ma# baII t n

small lots, and he may not sell as
many eggs in a year as a big wholesaler
sella on a dull day. A cent a dozen
might yield the wholesaler more net
profit than 6 cents would yield the retaller.
Even If the retailer were operating
exactly at cost he would probably
have to add 20 per cent to his cost price
to come out on his sales. But when lie
adds his profits also?profits large enough
to make a living for himself and his
family?his gross percentage on his day's
sales must be high.
Yet, In spite, of the fact that the margin
required bj- the retailer is much larger,
perhaps, than those of all the other middlemen
in the chain of distribution taken
together, there are very many fewer consumers*
organizations for the elimination
of middlemen than there are producers'
organizations. Where such organizations
have been established in the cities they
have failed more frequently than not,
usually for want of patronage?a condition
that proves to the mind of tlie retailer
that he renders the consumer more
satisfactory service than is rendered by
the consumers' organization itself. In
other countries there are co-operative
stores by the thousand which make a
great success, and there are a few in the
United States that have done so. while
new experiments are being launched
every month.

Among Farmers, organized jn different
ways. One system used in some localities
is the "beef ring." In order to
have fresh beef at reasonable prices a
number of farmers form an association
large enough to consume one steer a
week. Each farmer takes his turn in
furnishing a steer, for which he is allowed
regular market "on-the-hoof"
prices. One member of the ring understands
the art of butchering and meat
cutting, and he Is allowed t- or $.1 for

by-products are sold, and the proceeds
are deducted from the cost of the beef.
Kaeh farmer l.s then friven his share of
the beef at proportionate prices for each
cut. If one farmer desires more than
his share of the cheaper cuts he may i
exchange better cuts for it. In this way
the fanners are able to have fresh beef
all the time and at prices that approximate
those at which the retailer buys

in a "beef ring" means.
Farmers often buy fertilizer on a cooperative
basis. They frequently allow
one of their number 50 cents a ton for
making up the order and looking after
the shipments.
Could the consumer arrange to buy direct
from the farmer by organizing a
consumers' club, delivery to be made to
each member of the club direct from the
freight office, he might effect as successful
a reduction in the cost of bis table
as the "beef rings" in the country effect
for the farmer. For instance, several
consumers not long ago bought a number
of live hogs from a farmer. He
fattened them for the buyers, butchered
them, cured the meat and sold the parts
the consumers did not want. Those consumers
were able to enjoy fine Virginia
phoulders and hams, as good as ever
came from Smithfield, at a. cost of about
13 cents a pound, express included.

products of the farmers at a little more
than the farmer gets in the ordinary way. i
(Sometimes the sons of farmers drift
to the city and set up stores where they
handle farm produce shipped direct from
the farm. But they soon find themselves
up against the high cost of living, and
with but the one middleman their prices
become the same as those charged by the
grocers who buy through "the ordinary
channels of trade.
One of the amusing tilings about the
modern system of distribution is the fact
that the retailer, who will quarrel with
his wholesaler if that wholesaler should
happen to sell direct to the consumer,
often tries to buy over the bead of the
wholesaler, just as the consumer some
times tries to buy over tlie head of the
retailer. Usually lie announces himself
as a wholesale and retail dealer, and
then seeks to buy direct from the jobber
rather than through the regular wholesaler.
The jobber refuses to stand for
such an arrangement, and then the combination
wholesale and retail dealer declares
he is being discriminated against.
The jobber tells him he is a retailer and
has no right to buy at jobbers' prices,

One is afforded a striking instance of I
how much more the middleman make* I
in proportion to the
Estimated Profits number engaged h*
nt w-jii middlemen than the
of Middlemen. fanm>r niake8 jn proportion
to the total number of farmers.
Statistics show that-more than one-third
of the people of the country are engaged
in agricultural pursuits. They must make
the major portion of their living and all
of their savings out of the six billion dollars'
worth of foodstuffs they have to
i sell, l.ess than lO per cent of the people
are engaged In the distribution of these
foodstuflTs, and yet they get f7,000,000,000
out of the operation.
Whatever may be the profit of the middleman.
however, the consumer usually
finds it more satisfactory to deal with
him than to buy direct, even where that
can be done. When the bricklayer la
through with liis day's work he does not
feel like having to bother with direct
marketing and such worries. He is glad
enough to pay the added price that the
middleman puts on in order to get rid of
performing for himself the functions
which the commission merchant, the
wholesaler and the retailer perform for
him.
Consumers' buying organizations in
many quarters experience the same difficulties
that individual consumers experience
in getting the benefit of wholesale
prices. There are big houses that will
sell direct to the consumer, and also to
organizations of consumers, but the common
experience lias been that it is diftl
cult for such organizations to get standard
goods at standard wholesale pric?s
Wherever co-operative buying lias had its
greatest success there has been behind
the co-operative retail business a co-operatlve
wholesale business, and frequent I v

with persistent grit and determination
have been able to stand the strain. The
retailer usually helps along the movement
in opposition. Some months since
one of a chain of semi-co-operative stores
was opened in a well-to-do neighborhood
in Washington. The day before every
grocery around was selling pork ciiops at
from 22 to 25 cents a pound. The new
store advertised that to those who would
come witli their market baskets and pa1'
cash it would sell the sajue grade of pork
chops for l'? cents a pound. The next
day the regular stores were advertising
pork chops, delivered and charged, at 1??

It is such co-operation among retailers
