ABOUT ADVERTISING ANDITS EFFECTS
People who think that an advertisement OF
three months standing is going to make
them rich, make Il .mistake. Advertising is
like eating. If you wan. to be healthy
you must eat regularly, as meat to-day viii
not serve yOn for te-Ilerrow. TO he we'll
and hearty eat at every meal time ; to be
prosperous in business, advertise regularly.
Stop the one and you starve and die. Stop
the Other and your business takes consump-
ton and dies also. SpasmOdic advertising
is like having feast and famine more
famine than feast as a rule-and is never
satisfactory. To take ont your card i'll
hard times is like killing your horse be-
cause he is little lame. 1t is in dull times
the most advertising should be done and it
is in duh times that advertising is the
most effective, as more attention is taken
of printers ink than at any other time

The Boston FIRE.

Again the truth Of the old adage that mis-
fortunes never come singly is proven. The
disastrous confagration at Lynn is quickly
followed by one In Boston which, though
somewhat less destructive than the former,
is nevertheless very disastrous affair.
Fortunately the stories circulated in this
city at noon and In the afternoon proved to
be somewhat exaggerated. The disaster,
serious though it be, bears no comparison
DO the great fire In Boston in 1872 The
losses in that coHfagration footed up over
S75. 900, 900, while the estimates of yester-
days fire will not exceed $1,000, 900.
The amount of suffering and distress result
ing from this latest FIRE will happily be small

Why He IL for Reed.

The fallacy Of the sectional cry against
Mr. Reed has not been better shown than by
man from the West, one of the men who
will have voice In the caucus tomorrow af-
ternoon. Il am for Reed" says Congress
man Perkins of Kansas, because he Is the
biggest, brainiest, ablest man for the posi-
ton. he lives away down east, 1t is true,
but he is as well posted on Western affairs
ss any OF the other candidates. He has
travelled throughout as great a portion of
che West as any man In the field, and has
probably read and informed himself as well
81 Mckinley, Cannon, or any Of the others.
/ have always found him ready, willing, and
snxious to help me in matters Of interest to
the West. He aided me in the matter of the
spening of Oklahoma, the opening Of Indi-
an reservations, in our public land policy,
and In everything that any western man
could wish. II we had candidate from
Kansas, State pride might make me vote for
him, but If have to 60 outside of my own
State for candidate I'd as lief go 1900 miles
as 800 to find good man to support, espe-
sally when the fellow furthest away is the
best man for the place. That he comes from
Maine Is no detriment to him." We think
that when the test comes it will be found
that large portion Of the western men will
agree with Mr.. Perkins that there must be
something else the matter with a candidate
besides the fact that he comes from AWAY
down east"

tneir losses. OF course good many people
VIII De thrown out Of employment. but only
ior short time for the burned out firms will
soon establish themselves elsewhere. Fol-
lowing so closely upon the Lynn fire the
losses may put severe strain upon some Of
the weaker insurance companies, and 1t
would not be surprising if some of them
went down under IL. Under the circun-
stances Boston has reason to congratulate
itself that it got off so easily. With the wind
blowing gale and the fire in a locality
crowded with tall buildings filled with in
fiammable material the wonder is that the
flames were stayed so early. No doubt this
fire teaches some lesson; every great fire is
supposed to; but what it is is not quite APP
parent at the present time. If, however, it
should turn out, as is suspected, that the fire
was caused by broken electric light wire
an obvious lesson will be that electric light
wires must be better guarded than at pres
ent. The insurance companies can be trusted
to enforce that lesson.

S-cted to contribute something to the cam

Che eject of 1t in the long run must be to lead
political parties to select men for office, not
for their real worth. but for their ability to
ssms down with cash. with the consequent
eject Of driving poor men out of public lie
and dsbArring them ifrom the right which
should belong to every Citizen equally of
seeking service under the government? Now
most OF these assessments are made, osten-
ably, for the printing OF ballots and the en-
pioyment OF ballot distributors at the polls.
With the ballots printed at the expense of
the State, as they will be under the Austria
lan system, this cloak for the mulcting of
candidates will be taken away, and as there
will no longer be any excuse for assessments
they will disappear This is not speculation
10 Is precisely what has happened in Massa-
shssetts under the new system. Up to the
present year candidates had always been as
ssssed by both parties for the payment Of the
printing bills. This year no assessment was
made and the fact was very properly pointed
10 with pride by both parties. If the Aus
