Colossal announcements covering a

a journal but are studiously ignored by
the majority OF newspaper readers,
who do not want to see a poster when
seeking a news item or an editorial

Keen-wltted advertisers are quick to

Extravagant advertising is the pro
duct Of reckless competition in bust
ness. That the habit Of lavish expen-
diture for big displays in the daily pa
pers throughout the country has be-
come prevalent is evident. The anx-
ious news-seeker is veXed to find that
which he wants buried beneath an av-
alanche Of big type proclaiming a bar
gain sale OF tinware, the prospectus Of
new mining scamp corporation, or
the benefits obtainable from Dr. Has
been's delicately perfumed Hogwash.
No daily newspaper has yet had the
courage to restrict its too generous
clients in their efforts at self-glorifca-
ton. The news Of nations may be cur
tailed, but Smoke and Nibble's full
page sign-boards, with pictorial accom-
paniment must be printed. This volu-
minous daily appeal to the public pock-
ct is usually referred to as an indica-
ton Of mercantile prosperity. Such
an idea is delusive. Good wine needs
no bush" says the old saw and mer-
chants who sQuander hard cash in
over,advertising are simply bluflng.
Occasionally a shopping event may
warrant the burning Of a good-sized
pile of Treasury notes to attract at
tention, but the daily bonfire Of paper
money has become so common that no.
body heeds the blaze.
When considered calmly, in the light
OF facts, isn't 1t remarkable that men
Of hard sense will permit the agents
who handle their newspaper advertis-
ing to bamboozle them into such a
wanton waste OF capital? DO railway
companies splurge in this way? DO
hotel-keepers monopolize costly space
in the daily press month after month
The big department establishments are
the chief suckers in this game OF ad
vertising, and their braggart methods
are followed by their lesser competi
tors, who appear panic.stricken and
| helpless.
Sufficient Advertising In effective
channels Is profitable. Attempts to
circus a reputable commercial business
at enormous cost are indefensible

In a speech in Congress- Mr. Lentz
set forth his views Of government by
injunction thus:
What 1 am opposed to is imprison.
ment at the discretion of the court in
connection with contempts committed
beyond the presence and possible
knowledge Of the Judge. l am opposed
to clothing a Federal judge, whom we
send into Alaska or elsewhere, with
power to punish as for contempt, dis
obedience to his order which may have
taken place 10 or 100 miles away from
the presence Of the court What l in
sist upon is that we shall not invest
court with the right to send a man
to prison for months or years, depend
ing on the resentment Of the judge or
the persecution Of the party complain
ing; but that there shall be a jury Of
the mans peers called in, and there
shall be a finding on the evidence
whether this man has committed a
contempt or not; and having commit
ted a contempt would be in favor OF
going still further and allowing that
jury to impose the penalty.
This government by injunction is aim
ed at labor organizations, and there is
no reason why a disinterested jury
should not fix the penalty"
Is it possible to imagine baser in
gratitude or more offensive stupidity
than for a labor organization, to de-
nounce the author Of such sentiments
as an enemy Of organized labor, and
merely because he practises a profes-
sion which he honors and I'm which he
is eminent?
During his two terms in Congress,
organized labor had no abler cham
pion, no sincerer friend than John J..
Lentz, But, because he invokes, in the
course Of his profession, the powers
Of the law against some cowardly mis-
creants who disgrace their calling, they
fly at his throat, they pour out their
vials Of wrath, and discharge their We.
nomous volleys Of Uuperation and
abuse. How munifcently the cham.
pions Of labor are rewarded
Remember there is not a word said
against the Federal judge who granted
the injunction, but against the lawyer
who asked It, and IL he had been an
avowed enemy Of labor he would not
have been denounced.

Not living creature, not woman nor

not think that since the Thirty Years

armies Of Tilly and Wallenstein. any
other similar scene Of such total ruin
alton has been witnessed. British
methods of conducting the war have"
concludes General SHUTS, done the
cause more good than harm, in so far
that the burghers have thrown of ain
cares and thoughts which we're con-
trary to their duty"
Our readers will understand that

came to the conclusion that Miss Yer

thought that this gracious act OF his
would commend him in the eyes Of the
President and help to extend his reign
Of injustice and favoridsm. But, let
us remind Evans that such conduct
lowers him in the estimation Of Theo-
dore Roosevelt. No greater insult could
be offered to that robust, strenuous
manhood than the thought that he
could be placated or fattered by the
advancement Of his relatives at the

er her worthiness so soon after her
cousin attained a position where he
can make or unmake Evans. The very
statement Of the fact furnishes the
answer. Evans is a trickster and a
time-server. However, let the next few
months bear us witness that Teddy

out Of the position Of Commissioner OF
Pensions without much ceremony. He
desplses hypocrisy and sycophancy.

ating, molding and guiding public SEN
timent, and that a sound, healthy pub
lie sentiment is essential for wise leg
lslation and the honest administration
Of public affairs. Where the press is
Independent and incorruptible, public
servants will discharge their official
duties with some regard for the peo.
ple's interests, for they know that the
slightest direliction Of duty will evoke
severe condemnation, and their unlaw-
full acts will be exposed to the public
gaze. 1t is a deplorable fact that too
many Of our newspapers are under the
baleful influence Of the princes Of priv
ilege who control and dominate them.
It is idle to expect from these organs
any enunciation Of truths inimical to
the powers that own them. They deem
it to their interest and therefore their
duty to create a false public sentiment
on questions affecting the public well
fare To do this, news essential to the
peoples enlightenment is suppressed or
distorted to save their purpose.
Public officials may prostitute the
power conferred on them by virtue OF
their Office and there will not be a
murmur against them, providing they
do not affect adversely the privileged
classes. The result is that our govern
mental departments are honeycombed
with petty tyrants, who don't care fig
for the public welfare, who use the
power Of Government to reward their
friends and punish their enemies. The
petty tyranny favoritism, misrule and
immortality that prevails in certain
branches OF our national Government
is appalling, nevertheless our great
