WHY THEY FAIL.

Most advertisers fail because they
expect the advertising to do it all"
It will not unless you take advertising
in the very broadest sense-that is,
not only of attracting attention to the
goods, but of turning that attention
into money. Than it is advertising
and then it should pay.-John p. Pow

AND ADVERTIS-
ERS.

Men who have thought seriously
about the matter know that advertis-
ing, be it great or small, pays a pre-
MUM on the money invested.It may
not bring direct results, but it is more
often like " casting bread upon the
waters" The object is not so much
to sell an article that everybody wants
as it is to make everybody want an ar
ticle that the advertiser sells. The
merchant must keep his name and
wares before the people all the time
to catch new customers, who are ever
changing.
People, as a rule are very forgetful
They have to think pretty hard to re-
member the e-presidential candi-
date two campaigns back, and yet he
was pretty we'll advertised at the time
1t has been truly said that the time to
advertise is all the time. In business
there is no such thing as standing STILL
A business man must go forward or
he will fall back. Each years effort
should be to exceed last years sales.
The only sure way to do this is to ad-
yertise. Advertise in busy times be-
cause the iron must be struck when
hot, and advertise in dun times to heat
the iron. 1t can be done.-Press and
Printer.

Questions touching municipal

The great city election campaign
in Greater New York, developes a
wonderful sameness of the issues
presented by the regular and ir-
regular parties that have put forth
tickets and platforms.
Private corporations now run
ming water, light and street rail-
road plants had better take warn
ing, the day of public ownership
has dawned in this country.
Our present county administra-
ton have made great departure
in furnishing its own water, light
and power. The example of Bexar
county will be contagious.
The next city election will be
drawn upon lines looking to muni-
cipal ownership of the supply OF
light and water.
The people feel previously the
burden of taxation, and when to
their taxes to support a municipal
establishment they are taxed more
than is reasonable to keep up cor
porate companies who are enjoy ing
franchises that have cost them
nothing, public patience becomes
exhausted and the people will
look for relief at the ballot box.
There should be no violent war
made on capital, no unseemly at
tacks upon our home people but
there should be an earnest move
ment to lift some OF the burdens
of our citizens.

the Next Year.
Sealed proposals were received in
the mayors office yesterday at 8
o'clock for the current deposit of the
city of st. Louis for one year from oc-
tober 1. The letting was in blocks of
$500 900 each. The bidder offering the
highest rate of interest was given the
first block of 100000; the next highest
bidder getting the second block, and so
on until seven distinct blocks were let.
The scheme provides that deposits are
to be drawn from the depository Civ
ing the lowest rate of interest first,
and so on in their respective order so
that the deposits will remain longest
undisturbed in the depository giving
the highest rate of interest,
Mayor Ziegenhein, Comptroller Stur-

New England is much concerned
about free hides. Some Of her biggest
industries, especially that Of boots and
shoes, have been built up during our
quarter of a century of free hides. She
now sells boots and shoes in all parts Of
the world. Taxed hides would cripple
this and other industries. Her leading
senators pretend to represent her and to
put up a fight for free hides. In reality
they will, if necessary, sacrifice free
hides to obtain high duties on sug'
or with plenty of margin for trust prof
its. Just why this is 80 should be a
matter for senatorial investigation, II

High Duties On Buttons.

The button manufacturers, present

in their demands for tariff duties. Nc
Kinley duties are entirely too slow for
the button infants The following is
part of a statement made by button i'm
porters:
The proposed duties On buttons, as
per schedule of the finance committee
of the senate, are as rule prohibitory
and would prove severe hardship on
goods used by the poorer and middle
classes, and also to manufacturers Of
various garments used by the mass of
our people, such as low priced shirts.

.A License to SSeaIn

That must have been embarrassing
information to the United States senate
which Statistician Carroll D. Wright fur
nished that body last week concerning
the labor cost of lumber in this country
and in Canada. His figures showed that,
while the average wages in Canadian
sawmills is $l.41 and $1.71 per day
here, the average labor cost of 1000
feet of lumber is $1.2s in Canada and
only 81 cents here. The decreased cost
of production in this country Is attrib-
uted to the superior machinery used.
OF course the figures prove tie free
trade contention that the rate of wages
paid does not indicate the cost of pro-
duction-that low wages are very often
more expensive to employers, and vice
versa. But these hard facts furnished
by an officer Of the government will not
dissuade the lumber barops from their
purpose to get tariff OH Canadian lum-
Der so that they can the more effectually
rob American consumers. Proteetionists
care nothing for facts. What they want
is license to steal. National Single

deserve over 30 per cent duty on linen
goods, and one Of the principal manu-

chiefs in America (of Acheson, Harden

not desire any advance Of duty ON his
goods.
The gross injustice Of these duties
can be appreciated when it Is remem-
bered that, owing to climatic condi-
tiops, good fiber fax cannot be grown
or linen manufactured successfully in
this country, and when 1t is further re-
membered that the kind of linen taxed
is the kind that is used by the poorest
classes, while much lower duty Is put

Prices of Linens Go Up.

When the tariff bill was about to be
framed, the Republican leaders stated
that they desired to be moderate. and to
avoid anything like excessive rates. MIR.
Aldrich, when introducing the amended
measure into the senate, claimed that
his rates were generally lower than
those of the house bill. The linen
schedule, however, isa notable one Of
many exceptions, In it the senate rates
are higher than those Of the house and
much higher than anything ever before
known.
Under the Mckinley bill Of 1890 lin.
ems were assessed So per cent, with a
few exceptions as high as 90 per cent
ad valorem. Under the rates proposed
by the senate a large proportion of the
goods in everyday use will be assessed
from IS to IS per cent and in some
cases over 100 per cent The following
table shows some of the changes in the
cost of medium and low grade linens:
