the determination was reached to give only
exact statements and push the business
on that basis regardless of consequences.
The twenty thousand drop at the start off
was the Icy water before the first plunge
OF the season; but the advertising man
ager and travelling representatives were
instructed, and the plunge was made.
The results were satisfactory The
moral reaction was no less stimulating than
the physical glow after a cold plunge The
1act of getting on a solid basis gave new
tone to the business. 1t made stronger
men of all hands. Business men are quick
TO detect trickery, or the reverse and 1t is
safe to say that the increase of advertising
patronage that followed the decisive step
was due in some measure at least. to the
higher moral plane on which all were free
to act The change paid. 1t marked the
beginning of solid upward trend in pat
ronage that has shown no sign of dimin-
ishing.
Business men generally, and especially
those engaged in publishing are prone to
over-estimate the difficulties that seem to
threaten the conduct of business absolute
ly on the square. Any such publisher
should straighten up, and he will be sur
prtsed at the invigorating atmosphere the
man breathes who does business ON high
plane, the better standing it will give him.

clearwater Easily Defeats De oro.

A special to the New York Sun from Bos-
ton says that the defeat of Alfred De Orc,
the champion pool player, by William
Clearwater of Pittsburg, former cham
pion was the big surprise of last nights 8
game in the tournament in that city.
Clearwater's victory puts the Cuban out
Of the running for first honors as this was
his second defeat Frank Sherman of
Washington has clean score, and Stofft
Of Cleveland has lost only once. Sherman
and Stofft each have only one more game
to play. The former will meet Grant Eby.
while Stofft has to cross cues with De Oro
The experts expected that De Orc, while
admitting that he. had a hard game ON
with Clearwater, would win without much
trouble this evening" and when he failed to
count more than 81 points. when his oppo-
nent had rolled up $50, the knowing ones
sadly hid their heads. The Cuban is the
authority for saying that Clearwater's ex-
hibition was one of the greatest ha ever
participatsd In, His playing was brilliant
all around, and he poeketed the most diffi-
cult shots with great ease. De Orc. was
decidedly off in hts game.

Dare TO BE Honest.

From Printers Ink.
A writer in Fame, dealing with the Gues-
tion of giving honest circulation statements
to advertisers, says:
"Tt is an unaccountable exhibition of
moral obliquity when an otherwise upright
business man will insist that the circula-
tfon Of the publication under his manage
ment is some 25 to 80 per cent larger than
it actually Is. This peryersity Is especially
hard TO understand when he could get the
advertising contracts he Is after just as
well II he were to state the exact truth.
ut is, IN fact, 80 much easier to do
business on an absolutely straight basis
that It is a wonder that more publishers do
not try It.
THE experience OF one concern in the
line OF circulation statements is worth re-
lating. The temptation had so long been
yielded to to exaggerate the circulation
that 1t was simply a moral impossibility
fer the circulation manager to make a
statement to prospective advertiser with
out uneonsciously resorting to at least y
per cent hyberbole.
Finally, with change in management,

A,An.MA,s NEW CONSTITUTIONS

ALABAMA's NEW CONSTITUTION
The first part Of the new Alabama con-
stitution was adopted yesterday by the
constitutional convention. The Office
of Acknowledgements was created and
the governors salary raised from 1900
5000 The terms OF the executive
officers were heightened from two to
four yesre, but they are ineligible Tor
reelection.
The governor cannot become can
didate for u. s. Senator within ono
year of the expiration of his term. Inc
most sweeping suffrage scheme ye,
brought forward was that introduced
Monday by Burns, of BurDsville.
1t provides that the following classes
shall not vote; "Those who are bss.
tsrds or losfers or who may be objected
with any iosthsome or contagious die
ease. Those who have been convicted
of treason, bribery, forgery. larceny,
robbery, bigsmy, seduction, incest, muir
der, rape, or attempt 10 rape, arson or
burglary. Those who are descendants
OF parents who are If, or descendants
of, two or more different rsces; those
who shall have married any womnO
having o living husband, from whom
she has not been legally divorced; those
who have committed any assault and
battery on bis wife or step daughter"
This law would de stroy 90 per cent
of the negro vote, and the ex-slsves
who are not debarred will be less than
five per cent.
