A Word
About
Advertising.
Advertising in Dull Times

cit is easy enough to be good
when there's no chance to be bad,
easy enough to do business when
times are booming, F." say P0ft-
able Ad0eYtiSlng, and thereby
points a moral for the advertiser.
Why is it that business men will
cut down in part or altogether dc
away with the agency advertising,
that brings them the most of their
business at the very time when
greater need for it exists, is a
problem very difficult of solution.
What makes business dull for a
great many business firms is the
fact that there are few advertisers
who have shown their cunning by
pounding away harder than ever
during dull times, and as a result
are getting most of the business.
1t is the faltering advertiser
who never succeeds, but he never
comes to a realizing sense of this
fact until driven out of business
by his more aggressive rival.
A glance at the efforts put forth
by the worlds most successful
merchants shows that that success
depends upon and was brought
about by AdVertisang. There is
not much difference in the other
business methods of merchants.
They all, as rule, sell cheaply
and have what the people want,
but the long-headed man lets the
public know these facts, while his
unsuccessful rival does not.
Much also depends upon the
proper preparation Of an adver-
tisement. If you do not feel COM
petent to write a good advertise
ment, bring the facts to THE
News office and we will endeavor
to assist you. THE News, by the
way, is one of the best advertising
mediums in this section. 1t cir
culates in every nook and corner
of Burlington and Ocean counties,
and is read by the class of people
that do the most buying. Try it.

pointment of three Fish Commissioners
by the joint meeting, only two of whom
are to be of one political party.
Both Houses adjourned until last night
The legislature met last evening. No
steps have been taken to settle the Sena-
torial muddle Governor Werts and At
torney General Stockton have not been
together since last Tuesday. and what the
Governor may do to have the matter
thrown into Court is still problematical
The Republican members Of the Joint
Committee on Passed Bills waited on the
Governor early in the evening with the
four bills passed by the House and the
Republican Senate last week. The com
mittee was headed by Judge Cross, o.
Union. The Governor refused to receive
the bills or give any sort OF receipt fol
them, on the ground that it had not been
determined yet which Senate was the
legal body.
The committee left the bills on the
| Governor desk and retired. Judge
Cross reported the facts to the House
emitting to say, however, what reason the
Governor gave for declining to receive
the bills Messrs. Beekmsn, Of Middle
sex, and Thompson, of Camden, demand
ed that he report what the Governor said
but Judge Cross held that that was un
necessary, and Speaker Holt sustained
/ in,
motion, it was spread in full on the Jour
nal of the House.
Bills were introduced in the House re-
pealing the act providing for Boards o
Appeal in cases of taxation in Hudson
and Essex counties; authorizing Cape
May county to issue bonds to build a jail
and repeating the supplement to the
Election law providing for juries in con-
tested election cases
The Republicans held joint caucus
There was a scheme on foot to prevent il
coming to head, but it was held and re
suited in the selection of George B
Swaine for State Treasurer and w. S
Hancock, Mercer, for Comptroller. There
was an attempt made to break this com
bination, but two-thirds of the Assem-
blymen and Senators favored the ole
team
The first name presented was that o
W. S. Hancock for State Comptroller Hi
name was presented by Senator Skirm, o
Mercer, seconded by Assemblymen Lewis
of Passaic Colonel Samuel Dickerson'i
name was presented by Mr.. McEwan
The ballot showed "a votes for Hancocl
and IA for the Hudson candidate.
( When the matter of the State Treasurer
was considered Senator Ketcham present
ed the name OF George B. Swaine, of Els
sex, seconded by Assemblymen Storrs ant
Woolsey. David Baird, of Camden, gav'
up the fight early in the game. There
was no opposition to Swaine. The join
meeting will be held to-day.

THE report of the coroners' committee
of the Board of Chosen Freeholders, up
on the recent investigation into Coroner
Kelley's bills, will be made at its announc-
ed meeting on Wednesday, February IA.
1t is understood that the committee will
recommend that Coroner Kelley's explain
ation-lgnorance of the law-be accepted
by the board.-Dispdtch.
Perhaps the committee will make such
a report and that lthe matter will be al
lowed to drop, to which, probably, nobody
will object. provided that the report car
ries with ita recommendation that the bills
offered by Kelley be turned down, for he
certainly is not entitled to cent for the
work that he acknowledges was illegally
performed.

THE House has passed the Wilson Tariff
bill. AS If in contempt for the votes of
Northern constituencies, the Democrats
in the House have cast nearly their full
strength for the bill, even in its present
peculiarly odious form. This act fixes the
responsibility of the Democratic party for
a measure which is almost incredibly I'M
patriotic and un-American in hostility to
home industries, as it is hostile to the
spirit, if not the letter, of the constitu-
ton in its communistic tax of the few for
the benefit of the many. No matter what
may be done in the Senate, where the
Democratic majority is small, the passage
of this bill with the almost unanimous
support of the Democrats in the House
fastens upon that party complete and full
responsibility for the measure in all its
parts and with all its natural consequen-
ces
This Tariff bill was deliberately framed
with two improper and uDpatriotic mo
tives-to break down industries which
had been established and grsndly devel-
oped by Republican protection, and to
create SO great deficiency that the in
come tax which the communism of the
West and South demanded would seem
necessary Holding these two evil pur-
poses steadily in view, the Democrats
have turned aside only where corrupt
Jobs or shameless sectionalIsm promised
riches or a seat in Congress, and made
members deaf to all else. Naturally the
party was betrayed for selfish interests
often by men who were all the time be-
trsving the interests of their country for
the sake of party.
In the entire history of the govern
ment there has never been attempted an
other change of tariff as radical and de-
structive as this. Not many people realize
this fact. When Andrew Jackson placed
his heel on the Free Trade notification
If South Carolina he dealt with men who
had never asked from the government a
change as radical as the Wilson bill would
make. The tariff Of 1883, which they
supported, did indeed reduce the average
of duties on all imports from about At

THE death of George w. Childs, pro-
prietor of the Public Ledger, caused pro-
found sorrow not only IN the United
States, but in other countries, for wher-
ever he was known Mr.. Childs was loved
and honored. Many who mourn his
death knew him only by reputation. but
that knowledge was sufficient to establish
feelings of friendship for one who has
done SO much for mankind. Especially
have the citizens of New Jersey cause to
remember this man, whose benevolence
has in some form or other pervaded near
ly every city, town or village of this state.
If there ever was man who deserved to
be rich that man was George w. Childs,
whose greatest happiness consisted in
spending his accumulations where they
would do the most good. He was living
example of the fact that fortune can be
acquired honestly, consistently and with
out resorting to sharp practices so com
mon In business life. The character Of
the man was clearly reflected in the col
umns of his paper-honesty. courage, and
sound convictions which he dared to ex.
press, with "Charity for all and malice to-
wards none" Unassuming and without
ostentatious show George w. Childs did
his life's work, and the very quletnesE
with which it was done makes it the more
prominent now. Without effort he has
builded monument more enduring than
tablet of stone-s loving memory en-.
craven in the hearts of his fellow-men.
