Our Railroad.

We have not yet exhausted our
selves on the subject of advertising.
If q small business requires to be
kept before the people, through the
m. dunn of the press, then do we
deem that such a thing is doubly
true OF all the greater business en-
terprises and undertakings. We be-
lieve that the world has yet to hear
of an instance where a private or
public business actually lost money
or prestige by advertising. The
thing is simply impossible, from the
fact that it is contrary to all the
principles of business economy.
What is true in this respect of dry
goods store, or the merest fruit
stall, is true of railroad or steam
boat company.
But to dismiss preliminaries and pro-
coed to the extraction of the milk in
the cocoonut we have opened, we
will advert to our railroad. On
more than one occasion, we have
mentioned the fact that strangers
have arrived at Tenino f::'om Port
land, and then and there. for the
first time in their lives. learned that
there was such thing as the Olym-
pia and Tenino Railroad. Having
bought through tickets to Tacoma,
they were thus debarred from the
privilege of visiting our city, save
through extra expense, or a circuit
GUS route, involving steamer travel.
Ever since the competition of our
road, we have, from time to time,
impressed upon the minds Of the d.
rectors the importance Of advsrtis-
ing its existence and time table in
tn Portland aud San Fra ,eisc0, -
we'll As in our own local papers.

gard to the great lines If travel in
any country, are ever more ready to
spend their money freely. They
