WHAT AN ADVERTISEMENT SHOULD Be,
ITS USE AND ABUSE.

As this is intended for the pros
oective purchaser, not for the in
struction of the advertiser, we
shall limit our remarks to few
questions and answers suitable to
our purpose.
That judicious advertising pays
is a fact no longer doubted by the
wide-awake merchant. But what
is judicious advertising?
An advertisement that is not a
statement of plain facts-that
lacks the impress of unvarnished
truth-that borders on the realm
of fiction-such an advertisement
is not only soon detected but as
certainly avoided-no matter how
adroitly the advertiser seeks the
ear of the public.
To gain the confidence of the
public, simply to advertise will
not suffice; the merchant must
keep faith with his customers; he
must do what he advertises, and
have what he advertises. Such
advertisements are sought out by
the reader in the hope that it may
contain an announcement of a
special bargain offered, or to as
certain the price of something he
contemplates purchasing.
We do not pay out our money
for printers ink because it is a
custom-we calculate its effect,
and estimate the outlay to pro-
portionate gain.

WILLIAM IN VIENNA.

The German Kaiser Warmly Welcomed at
the Austrian Capital.
vienna, Oct. 1.-The Emperor of Ger
many arrived here this morning. Emperor
Francis Joseph met him at the station.
The greeting was most affectionate.. State
carriages were in waiting and their majes-
ties were driven to HohburR. Immense
crowds lined the route, and the two
emperors received an ovation. This
afternoon, Emperor William visited tho
imperial mausoleum and placed q wreath
upon the coffin of Prince Rudolph. The
Friedenblatt, in an article welcoming EN-
peror William to Vienna, hailed the kaiser
al model and indefatigable ruler, the real
center of the German empire and tho cham
pion of peace. All parties, it adds, are in
harmony with the Austro-G German alliance.
The two emperors and the king Of Saxony
started tonight for hunting expedition in
the Aips.

ALTHOUGH it will support five candi-
dates for congress in Minnesota who
wear the collars of the Pennsylvania
tariff barons, the Pioneer Press blows q
bugle blast for democracy in these words:
The American people unquestionably IA
vor moderate protective tariff-one that
will protect not only the manufacturer to
the extent of enabling him to compete with
the foreigner, but which will protect the
consumer by admitting foreign COMPETE
ton to the extent of preventing extortion.
But they are not in favor of building a
Chinese wall around the industries of this
country, under the shelter of which mo-
nopolies and trusts may thrive by the rob
berry of the people. Hence it is more than
doubtful whether they will approve of the
great changes in the tariff policy of the
country in the direction of higher duties
which are 80 conspicuous feature of this
bill. The result is quite likely to be that
the next congress will reflect the popular
disapproval of this policy; and that, after
suffering all the commercial evils conse-
quent upon the violent disturbance Of
prices and business wrought by these
tariff changes, the country will be
plunged year or two hence into a
new series of commercial disturbances by
the repeal of essential modification of these
high duties. The price of tin plate, for ex-
ample has already advanced twenty per
cent. since it became certain that the in
creased duty imposed on that article by the
bill would become a law, although the in
creased duty will not take effect until the
LIST of July next. This has resulted in vio-
lent disturbance of the tinware industries
of the country, and of course the advance
in the price of tin plate will be followed by
corresponding rise in the price of all arti-
cles made of this material, and by still
higher rise when the duty goes into effect.
That is to say, the people of this country
must pay tax of more than $8,OOO,O00 a
year in order to protect certain rich people
at Pittsburg in trying uncertain expert
ments in the manufacture of tin plateau
Industry which has as vet no existence.
But every tin cup and kettle and can will
be an object lesson in every household on
this preposterous perversion of the proteo-
i've policy.
Incidentally it may be remarked that
Thomas H. Carter voted for this $780,

Henry A. Root, who represents number
of contestants in the Davis will case is at
The Helena again and will remain in the
state for some time. The next move in the
courts will come before Judge Mediation,
of Butte, in few months. Mr.. Root will
then undertake to show that the will is
forgery. To prove this the testimony of
Carvalho, the great expert in handwriting,
will be introduced. He has already ex-
amined the will and says that it is very
plain forgery. The document has been
photographed with very excellent results.
MIR. Root now has in his possession photo
graphic copies which in delicacy of
execution are said to excel all previous at
tempts in photography OF documents.
Every line and shade is brought out with
remarkable dlstinctness. Mr.. Root empha
sizes in particular the efforts made to give
the paper an aged appearance.
~.
On the first page are seen certain blots
resembling stains. These, he says, were
produced by chemicals to make the paper
look old. Then again the paper is marked
by pin holes for the same object. Among
the letters, the ms are of special interest.
BY tracing these through the document, the
expert is satisfied that the entire will and
the signatures of the alleged witnesses were
written by the same hand. The third and
only living witness is now residing some
where in Iowa. Carvalho is the greatest ex-
pert in his line in the world. He was en-
ployed on the famous Morey letter case and
the letters of warning to Whitaker. the
colored cadet who was mutilated by his
fellow-students at West Point. He COM
mands very high prices for his work, but no
price is too high when his work

so, as a child, he should be instructed
in the English language. The STATE
must be able to require such instruct
ion, and of course TO ascertain whether
its requirement is satisfied. -as--
The Bennett law makes STRINGENT reO.
ulations to secure this knowledge.
But some rule Is plainly necessary. In
many parts of Wisconsin and elsewhere
there are communities which are prac.
tically foreign. The first and impera.
tive policy to pursue in all such com.
munities is to assimilate them with this
country, its government, and customs
and national life. Homogeneity must
be fostered and heterogeneity discount.

Key Of this position is the school Ian.
guage. The English tongue is not to
be an accomplishment or supplement

lie interest should be to supersede for
school purposes any foreign language
more familiar to the child than that of
this country. The parents came of
their own choice, and for the sake of
their children, who are to be Ameri-
cans, as well as that of the country, the
parents should cooperate with the State
in giving the children the first essential
qualification of an American-the lam
guage of the country. This country
has an enormous task in achieving the
timely and thorough assimilation of
the mass of foreign material which is
constantly cast upon it. Popular insti-
tutlons prosper not because they are
popular, but because of the character
and quality of the pesple who admins
ter them. A vast heterogeneous multi
tude of people of every race, without
common traditions, habits, life, litera-
ture, and language, merely because they
were herded on continent, could not
make nation except as they became
homogeneous. We do not want Ger
man, an Ireland, an Italy, a Bohemia,
or any other foreign nationality any
where In this country. But we want
everywhere America. Hdrper's Week

The Bennett Law.

The apparent union Of the German
Lutherans and Roman Catholics In op-
position to the Bennett school law of
Wisconsin has excited q great deal of
surprise. The law Is q compulsory and
anti sectarian law, and requires that in
struction shall be given in the English
language. This is not an extraordinary
law, and as the Lutherans are hearty
| friends of the public school system,
their opposition Is still more surpris-
ing. There might be, indeed, among
good friends of the school system some
doubt of the compulsory provision of
the law. But this does not disturb the
Lutherans. Fortunately the discus
sion has ELECTED letters which are pub
lished Ia the New York Times, from
two Lutheran clergymen In Connecti-
cut, and from q Lutheran correspon-
dent In Pennsylvania. These gentle
men say that the Opposition is not TAX
en- to teaching in the English language
nor to the compulsory provision, nor
does it arise from any desire of sectar-
ian control of public schools. The
Lutherans willingly pay their school
taxes. In Prussia and elsewhere their
schools under the compulsory law,
sometimes contain ninety-eight per
cent. Of the school children. The state
ment of the ground Of the present OBJ
lection Is this: eve believe that when
we pay our taxes for the support of the
public free schools Of the land-we do
this gladly-we have o right before God
and man to put up our own school
houses, train our. teachers, and support
our own schools, that our children may
be taught and trained In morals and re-
ligion as our consciences tell us they
ought to be-" &
Properly understood, that is perfectly
fair. II parents prefer private school
for their children, the public authority
can claim nothing more than the right
to ascertain whether the education
which 1t requires, and for which 1t
makes provision, is adequately supplied
by the private school. To that no good
citizen ought to object. But, as the
Times very well points out, this educa-
ton cannot be said to be adequately
supplied If the child 10 not taught to
read, write and speak English familiar
ly. This is primary condition, and
the comprehensive reason, q reason
which is profound and far-reach.
