Gen. Baker and Editor Owen are by
no means alone in their dissatisfaction
with the platform adopted at the late
alliance convention. Editor Carpen-
ter, the talented editor of an alliance
paper at Pennington and staunch
friend of Donnelly, characterizes the
platform as a piece of patchwork
made up of some of the hobbies of all
the members, and Gen. Barrett, late
candidate of the alliance for ieuten-
ant governor, speaks plainly in the
following terms:
All this agitation and enthusiasm is
but the expression of a feeling of I'M
rest and dissatisfaction among the
farmers. They have long been op-
pressed and imposed upon, but they
are just beginning to feel that they
are power which must be recognized
in politics. The sub-treasury scheme
is impracticable and if it's accomplish
ment we're seriously attempted would
be ruinous. These farmers did not
fully understand it's importance, and
in indorsing it they we're simply NOV
ing for change which they welcomed
feeling that any change must be for
the better. While perhaps the great
or part of the platform is impractical,
while much of it is foolish and taken
as a whole it is imperative and impot-
ent, it is a healthy indication that the
farmers are alive to their interests and
will not stop in their onward march
until they are given the recognition
they deserve.

THE wANAMAKER WAY.

The advertising manager for John
Wanamaker had an interesting article
in a recent number of Printers Ink
Hell go broke" said the croakers,
when columns, double columns and
even full pages of Wanamaker's an
nouncements began to appear, "the
business won't stand it, Wouldn't it,
Don't iti
'The best possible answer is the
marvellous growth of the Wanamaker
store-started in 1877; long since the
largest retail establishment in the
world almost Is acres of floor space)
and still gro,ving thrJtily.
Another answer: Other general
stores in Philadelphia slowly swung
into line. There was evolution and
revolution. Advertising in the city
dailies doubled and trebled; it is now
five or six times as much on the aver
age as in 1877. And ALL THE STORES
HAVE PRosPERRD. The Wanamaker way
has helped the merchants, helped the
newspapers, helped the city.
"Still another answer: More than
fifty leading traders in different parts
of the country regularly copy as much
of the Wanamaker advertising as can
be tortured into their service, and it
seems to pay them"
Continuing, Mr.. Wanamaker's man
ager says that mo odds what the size
of business may be, our experience
has proved that generous advertising
will bring crop of sales as surely as
generous culture will bring crop of
grain. There is no guesswork about
it. There is just one oondition-the
advertised thing must be worth the
attention of buyers.
There's tendency to magnify the
art and darken the mystery of adver-
Using. look upon an advertisement
in its best form, most wisely placed
as simply the result of an exercise of
common sense, based on experience.
To-day I'd rather have for venture
of my own a rugged, rocky, back
woodsy advertisement that shone with
truthfulness and business point than a
model of composition and display that
was cynical and hollow.
whether big or little, the adver-
tisement should be persistent. Every
day is the right rule for general bus
mess and changed every day. Hold
up one phase or another of it all the
time. Make the readers look to your
announcements as they look to news.
