SHORT TALK ON ADVERTISING

copyrighted by Charles Austin Bates.)
One man'succeeds and another fails and
people wonder how uit happens It seems
sometimes to people who don't think deeply
that the weaker, duller man goes ahead, and
that his more brilliant brother sticks in the
rut at the first ronnd'of the ladder.
Slight differences in men seem to make all
the wide differences between success and
failure.
In games of chance (:) the "bank' has
only slight percentage but the bank al
ways wins
Back of every result is a reason Back of
business success are earnestness. energy,
persistence, concentration. Between these
and achievement is advertising.
No man ever yet made success of bust
ness without advertising of some sort. May
be he didn't call it advertising, but it was
advertising just the same.
Advertising primarily consists in letting a
lot of people know you are in existence and
what excuse you may have for it.
The nucleus of advertising is a sign over
the door.
If nobody had ever put up a sign the
Royal Baking Powder Company would not
now be paying 100000 year placing signs
in all the newspapers of America.
When man goes into business he has
some cards printed, and when he meets an
acquaintance thereafter he pokes out a card
and says: When you're down nv way,
drop in" That's advertising.
The trouble is that you can't repeat the
operation often enough-personally. What
you can do is to put the card and the remark.
more or less deliberately expressed, into THE
GAZETTE and have it handed to 1000 people
all in one week.
The difference in men that makes one do
this and another refuse is small That is. it
looks at the start. It's like most all little
things-when you lstop to analyze it and
figure it out to it's ultimate result, YOU find
that it grows into proportions of great
magnitude,
An advertisements in THE GAZETTE is a
little thing, but it goes into hundreds of
homes and tells thousands of people lust
what you most wish them to hear. If the
ad. is ap honest adj it will always pay

New York partisans are discussing
party symbols for the new blanket
election ticket that will be used in
that State this fall. The Sun sug-

latter7 The two parties would then
be correctly represented according to
their cartOonists.

The county commissioners as the
Board of Equalization passed reso-
luton last Thursday that calls for leg
islation. Tits q well-known fact that
the personal property tax law is gross
ly evaded by nearly everybody, one
taxpayer giving as his excuse tor the
evasion that everybody else, including
ell of his neighbors, evade the law. AS
result of the invasion the tax rate is
higher and the honest personal prop
erty tax holder is made to suffer a
great wrong. If possible the legisla-
ture should abolish the exemption

OVER THE CUP.

lngton through the wringer of public
opinion and winds up the whole by
contending that the editor and he will
be able to adjust their differences ov-
or the steaming cup some time when
they happen together, in the last issue
OF the editors paper. The editor
withholds a reply, saying that he
deems it unnecessary at this time, but
that he proposes at some other time
to fully elucidate some of the ques-
tons raised"
1t appears that our Grove friend
has political aspirations and that he
is using the pen, more mighty than
the sword, to destroy Andrew Stewart
and James Arnold, the latter county
commissioner from the first district,
whom he considers his most danger
GUS enemies. If political rumor whis-
pered by the dickey bird around the
court house is correct, Editor Bying-
ton aspires to represent Redwood
county in the legislature, of 1897 and
the statesman from Vesta also
has a little bee buzzing around the
bald portion of his upper story in ef-
feet that the people want him to rep
resent them. It is well-known
that Mr.. Stewart and Mr.. Arnold are
warm friends, and that they, both un-
like the Grove editor, are willing to
have men of all political faiths meet
them on the broad platform of public
debate and there wrangle over Nation
al questions. The Grove editor sees
that with such support as Mr.. Stewart
back of him Mr.. Arnold will be most
formidable opponent at the county
convention.
But will not the Vesta statesman
look at Andrew and the Grove editor
sitting or standing over cup, with
great deal of distrust? Will not 80
degrees below zero atmosphere pass
down over the bald spot into his bo-
som against Andrew? We think SO.
The human mind is changeable, unre-
liable. Might not Andrew change ov-
er the cup or might not the proposed
spectacle make the bald statesman
think that Andrew is changing?
Stranger things have happened to
split the friendship existing between
two politicians.
We suggest, out of pure desire for
harmony, that Mr.. Arnold be invited
to participate in the little cup-feast-
that there be three cups instead of
two and that there be plenty on the
side for the third cup. By that way
all suspicious would be cast to the
wind and everything would have to
be done above board. There would
be no political trickery and deceit.
but intrepidity would exist.
Yes, let there be cups for three, and
plenty on the side.
