Excerpt from Shall Pharmacists Become Tradesmen?: A Reproduction of a Series of Articles That Appeared in the Weekly Drug News and American Phamacist; They Were Written Between 1881, and 1885, Together With Subsequent Reviews on the Same Subject MY object in reproducing these papers in book form is that they may prove interesting to a new generation of pharmacists and druggists who doubtless are unaware of their existence. The majority of the papers were written between 1880 and 1883. My extenuation for the constant repetition and pleading for the pivotal foundation of power, unity and organization, was at that time, and still is, to engraft into the minds of our brethren the stupendous results that are invariably achieved by concentrated power, activity, aggressiveness, and vigilance. A power that should be formed into Local, County, and State organizations, and finally merged into a National association governed by State delegations. Since department stores have usurped the prerogatives of the dispensing druggist, their destructive influences throughout our entire country have been felt, directly and indirectly. Their sale of advertised nostrums and medicines and pharmaceutical prepa rations at ruinous prices has become so fashionable that the established rates made by the manufacturers have become so de moralized that the average retail druggist believes them to be be yond redemption. In nearly all the large centers of population where cutting is rampant, dealers seem to be willing to meet all cut rates irrespective of the ridiculous margins of profit. They are met solely to hold the business that naturally comes to them in their locality. Cut rates in the cutting centers seem to be the order of the day, even practiced by those who denounce such un businesslike methods.
