THERE are very few business men
who do not believe in advertising as
powerful business force. Especially
il such advertising be conducted by
good reliable newspaper that has II
large and continuous circulation.
Realizing this to be fact it is strange
and rather unfortunate that the ma
jority OF merchants fail to recognize
and take advantage of their golden
opportunity. Some one has likened
them to a man with toothache He
knows he ought to see a dentist and
have the matter attended to at Jnce.
greater his benefit in every way; less
pain, better taoth, more money in
his purse. Now take the merchant,
he realizes that his goods are becom-
others are not yet properly intro
duced to the public. But times are
dull and he can hardly afford to ad-
vertise them until business begins to
boom. This is mistake. The early
bird catches the worm. Putting off
youIA announcement is poor policy,
but promptness will benefit your
business in every way. 1t will save
physical depression and blues, your
goods will be first rate, not shop worn,
and financially you will be many
dollars ahead. Publicity is the great
essential to business success and the
highroad to publicity is advertising.

THE Democrats continue their mali
cious attacks upon the Dingiey law,
knowing full well that it has not yet
been given chance to see What if
will do as revenue gatherer. 1t was
not expected chat the new law could
possibly meet the expenses Of the
government during its first few
months, and in point of fact it has
been doing as we'll as its friends eX-
pected, and as we'll as they predicted
it would do. 1t is to be presumed,
however, that the Democrats will
continue their bowling as long as
there is a possibility of making n
single person believe that the new
law is not what it should be as rev
enue producer. After the miserable
failure of the Wilson law in II fair
trial of three years it might ration
ally be expected that the men who
foisted that abortion upon the coun-
try would be willing to shut up for
awhile and give its successor an op-
portunity to demonstrate what it can
do.

The Press and the Gossip.

1t is a lamentable truth, says the
Harrisburg News, that the SANDER
Gus stories that are whispered about
by gossips, and which undermine
reputation in so steadily manner
that the individual knows nothing of
the source until his character is abso-
lutely blackened, are very seldom
brought home to the originators.
Choice bits of slander are passed
around in a confidential way with the
admonition that you mustn't tell
and before long everybody knows it,
and no one knows its source. This
10 the meanest and most injurious
kind OF slander. 1t is often based
upon the merest suspicion OF some
evil-minded retailer Of petty gossip,
and has not the slightest foundation
in fact. But it gets around and does
its deadly work, and the aggrieved
party has no remedy.
Before newspaper makes an
accusation against citizen it is care

something that will do the people no
good to knOw-that is, il the eXposi-
tion is not in the interest of good
morals-a self-respecting newspaper
will have nothing to do with it. If
the charge should prove to be false,
the injured party knows right where
to 90 for redress, and an editor who
wrongs any one by publishing an un-
truth by misapprehension, is most al
ways glad to make a full retraction.
And yet the very people who SLAM
der their neighbors habitually, and
delight in the assassination Of char
acter. are Mortified at the freedom of
the press. "Oh, it is SO much worse"
they argue, ito publish such things

A PREJUDICED ARBITRATOR.
Decides Against'Oelr Government by
Ignoring the Facts.

Ignoring the Facts.
Washington, Jan 5.-The cause OF
arbitration in the settlement of claims
between nations has received a severe
check in the award by the arbitrator
In the case Of Oberlander and Messen-
ger, who claimed $4,000 and $4,000, re-
spectively, for i'll treatment by the
Mexican authorities The arbitrator
was the Argentine minister at Madrid,
6enor Quesada, and his decision was in
favor of the Mexican government and
against the American claimants. The
discouraging feature of the decision is
that in making the decision the arbi-
traitor apparently overlooked every
point of law, according to English
standards, and decided the case with
reference to his sympathies. 1t is said
that a more extraordinary opinion than
this, from a legal point of view, was
never seen at the state depay tmeut.
Oberlander was a deputy sheriff i'm
California, and he was kdnaged and
taken across the border by MeNcan
officers. Mrs. Messenger. in whose
house he had taken refuge, was III
treated. When il came to rendering
his decision tha arbitrator, il is said
ignored the iaot- and reasoned that
because the Uni ed States govern
ment had not recognized the ri-hts Of
the Chinese government to indemnity
for the killing of Chinese at Rock
Springs, Wyo., while insisting upon
indemnity for losses sustained by
American missionaries in Chin. vs.,
could not expect to have an Indemnity
awarded our citizens in such cases es

Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
