COMPETITION in business is the only
sure safeguard the public have against
monopoly and extortion. The laying of
the French telegraphic cable is an iIlus>
tration of this truth. \ press dispatch
says:
g On and after August 10, the following reduc ed
rates of tariff messages through the Atlantic Ca
bic takes effect Thirty shilfingS sterling, $50
gold, for ten words three shilings sterling, 70
cents gold, for each extra word. Press messages
half Of the above rates.
One year ago the same cable company
were charging $3.50 per word Ia gold
for messages. The organization of the
French company caused them to reduce
the RAE to Sl.60 per word. When the
French cable was put aboard the Great
Eastern they reduced their rates again,
to : per wor word. Now that it is sue
cessfully laid and in operation, they
have put down their tariff to 70 cents
Competition will force the price still low
er before the year ends. A good profit
and p enty of business can be had on a
rate of 10 cents per word, with press
messages at half price, on account of
quantity Nothing like healthy compe-
tition.- Chicago Trt6.

Finding the Mammoth.

In the year 1899 a chief of native tribe
was searching for ivory along the banks of
the Lena, when to his great horror and
fright, he saw in cliff of the gravel Just
mentioned huge block of ice, and in it
what he considered Il beast of evil omen
He became i'll from terror, but, on his re-
covery, remembering that the beast had
tusks which were like those he was search
ing for, he again visited the spot. There
stood, all cncascd in transparent ice, crea-
ture like an elephant in shape, nine feet
high and sixteen feet long, and with, e,v1ro
nous tusks projecting for eight or ten feet
and curving at their tips. The huge brute
was hairy; it had long black bristles all
over it, and they were from foot to six
teen inches long; it had also long red hair
covering the whole body, and short fur
The chief waited and watched for five years.
By the end of that time the ice had melted
and the mammoth presented itself in its
flesh and hairy hide to the astonished ma
tives. The tusks were cut off and sold, the
neighboring inhabitants came with their
dogs and feasted on the carcase, and the
wolves picked the bones. Fortunately q
naturalist heard of it., and collected the
bones and specimens of the hair, thirty
found weight of which were gathered from
the wet sand bank on which the mammoth
rested, and the tusks he purchased. He
carried the whole to the nearest capital, St.
Petersburg, distance of seven thousand
three hundred and thirty miles, where it
became one of the wonders of the world,
and where it may still be seen in the mu-
scum of which it forms most remarks able
feature.

SERVED THEM RIGHT.-The SIN;

SERVED THEM RIeTr-The "many
prominent business men" in Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington who are said
to have been recently swindled out of at
least fifty thousand dollars by counterfeit
ers offering to sell them "good counterfeit
money" and managing to be disturbed be-
fore the sums agreed upon could be care
fully counted, are on par, so far as honesty
is concerned, with those who not long ago
had dealings with the vendors of stolen
bonds and IN like manner had their fingers
burned. In the latter cases the verdict of
the public was that the receiver is as bad
as the thief, and in the former it will be
'served them right" Bitters bitten can
expect no sympathy. If they had not been
swindled they would have been condemn
ed as guilty of completely with the coun-
terfeiters. Swinded they can put in no
plea of innocence, inasmuch as it is an ak
ION that the moral quality of an action
resides in the intention. Honest men
never thus strike hands with rogucs.-- Her.

The World Moves.

Every great event should be recorded in
the memory of even the man of details; for
every great event prepares incalculable
shifting of interests, national and individ-
ual, to which the position of him who fam
cies himself most isolated and Independent
must, porforce, sooner Aor later, conform.
This is a century of historical cataclysms.
Every year brings some fresh commotion.
Mankind, losing its losely aggregated fluid
condition oflife, and growing compact and
solid, begins to move massively. The quick
and general distribution of information
now makes the mutual consent of millions
to project, to a reform, as easy and sim
pie an act as the alliance of two royal cab
inets used to be-in fact simpler and easier.
A whole empire now votes for or against
man, or measure; and the vote so cast is
too overwhelming to be resisted. A whole
empire supports an emancipation procla-
nation, and in moment the face of histo-
ry changes for an entire race. 1t is the age
Of enthusiasts, sustained and reinforced
by money, machinery, electricity, steam and
the democratic caucus system. The Pacific
Railroad in one quarter of the globe, the
Suez Canal in another, Napoleonism revers-
ed, Bourbonism oycrthrown, mark the
cventful year. Now the news is flashed
from st. Petersburg across Europe and
through the ocean, that the ecclesiastical
establishment Of Russia has been quietly
set aside by Il ukase Of the Emperor. Her
editary priesthood is abolished. A vast
section of the original world has been sud-
denly accidentalized, and without commo-
ton scarcely passing remark about it in
the newspapers Stunned by the recent
abolition of serfdom, the nation looks on
passively, while the status ofsevcn hundred
thousand men, women, and children, be-
longing to the sacerdotal order, is changed
at nod. 1t is the act of emancipation
The son ola priest no longer need become a
priest. 1t is fresh step toward the edu-
cation of the whole people in higher way.
1t must affect trade, agriculture, manufac-
lures, commerce, science, and politics. 1t
has au indirect bearing upon the future
movements of Russia, eastward and south
ward, and perhaps westward. In any case
it is one Of the great events of the year, and
deserves its chronicle. Exchange

Should we Advertise in Dull Times?

Should we Advertise in Dull Times!
Since the very nature of an advertisement
is to secure more business and greater re-
turns, it would seem as if the above ques-
ton WAS practically unnecessary, yet our
experience thus far proves the opposite.
There is large class of advertisers who,
when dull times approach, instead of exer-
cising the usual sagacity exhibited at
other seasons, tie an additional knot in
their purse strings, withdraw their names
from before the public, and then sit down
to lament their sad fate and wonder why
$50 little is going on" We have often
cndeavored to expose the fallacy of such
course and point out its ruinous results,
yet neither the example of the wise
and prudent who heed not dull times, and
consequently are not afflicted with them
like others, nor their own i'll success, has
yet convinced them of their error.
1t may be laid down as an indisputablc
fact that if in good times it is necessary to
advertise to secure business, in dull times
it is all the more so. And why Simply
because the fact of advertising at all is
proof conclusive that such course will
and does bring business I; hence the
more one patronizes the press, the greater
will be his revenue, and the more certain
his success. Many men are dependent entire
ly upon advertising for success Suppose
they were to. refuse to advertise at all
"Dull times" would be the inevitable re-
suit, and no one would wonder at their
failure.
Of course some seasons of the year are
better adapted to particular classes of adj
yertisinp than Others vet the general adj
vertiser can necer afford to withdraw him
self from the public, even fora single day
and the judicious one never will. Persist
tency and energy arc always requisite, and
their fruits can be gathered by no other in
centives, much less by inaction and lam
cntation. If then, you find that business
is dull, or profits are growing beautifully
less, instead of thrusting all the blame
upon the poor public look closely to see if
it is not rather in your own SELF and, if
convinced of this act as you would at any
other time, and obviate the cause by adj
vertising.
