Good Words for The Tribune's
Twentieth Century Edition.

THE New Yedr souvenir of the
Tribune is very attractive eight
page sheet. 1t is neat and tasty
in appearance, well arranged and
with half tone cuts that both en-
belish its pages and aid in the
exhi bit of Florence Industries and
buildings. The write up is excel
lent, rather rose-colored perhaps,
but such as will be read with
pleasure at home and abroad We
heartily congratulate the Tribune
publishers upon their work, as
well as for the benefit that will
accrue to our enterprising city
from its circulation abroad. y

FREIGHT RATES.

There is growing feeling
among the business men of Flor
ence, and the managemeuts of
some of our large institutions that
Florence is being treated unfairly
in the matter of freight rates. The
Rocky Mountain smelter, for in
stance, is compelled TO freight sup
plies in from Pueblo with teams
The same is true of the street rail
way company and of several of our
merchants who buy goods in Pu-
eblo. Every day teams are freight
ing goods up from Pueblo to Flor
ence, because of the prohi bitive
freight rates imposed by the local
railroads AS far as the smelter is
concerned, it is particularly hand
icapped by the Denver & Rio
Grande, which has a spur right up
to the plant, The management
must therefore look to this road for
its transportation of freight,
The distance from Pueblo TO
Florence is thirty-four miles, and
when such excessive freight rates
are charged by railroad that it is
cheaper TO haul goods that distance
with teams, there is certainly good
cause for remonstrance.
While it may not be possible to
have Florence made common
point at this time, The TRIBUNE is
of the opinion that memorial,
signed by the business men of the
city and presented to the ID. d r
G. company, might at least secure
some concessions in view of the
fact of our immense trade. Flor.
ence is certainly entitled to some
consideration at the hands of heI
railroads.

Condition at RockvaIe.

Yesterday Manager Kebler oil
the Colorado Fuel & Iron com
pany telephoned to the miners
committee at Rockvale and said
that he would give them hearing
as a committee of the employees.
but he would not recognise them
as com mittee from the United
Mine Workers Union of America.
The men answered that they
would never consent to this, and il
the union was not recognized no
conversation would be held. What
kebler wishes to discuss cannot
be learned.
Most of the mules have been
taken out of the Rockvale shaft
and were put in the company's barn.
One of the miners, when APP
preached today, said that he
thought the chances for an early
settlement were very good and
that he thought work would be
resumed within the next month.
The reported improvements will
be made this summer.

The senators aud representatives
in congress from the arid land
states have made up their minds
that if congress can afford to ap-
propriate millions every year for
river and harbor improvements in
the river and tidewater states, it
can afford to throw few crum bs
to the middle West in the shape
OF irrigation reservoir appropria-
tions. There are ten states that
never get dollar from the river

seem to have made up their minds to
kill the bill unless it is SO amended

ADVERTISING MEDIUMS.

In the choice of advertising me-
diums there is much to be consid-
ered-circulation, standing and APP
pearance. Circulation is important,
but quality of circulation is all
important. Better a moderate
number of buying readers, who
value the publication sufficiently
to pay for it, than multitude of
mere names on mailing list, A
safe rule to follow in placing ini-
tial advertisements, is to take mod
crate spaces in the best edited and
most interesting of the trade Jour
nails circulating in the trade to be
reached, and later modify the list
as the resulting inquiries indicate
and recommend. Again, it is alb
solutely necessary that the space
purchased in the journals selected
should be used to display matter
that is attractive, pointed in phras-
ing and calculated to make fa-
vorable and lasting impression
Such an advertisement is possible,
and no one now disputes that the
advertising pages are examined as
closely as any other. The Engin-

and showed some strategy in GLIDING his
father and Cash Moorein pursuit. When
they suspicioned that they were being
followed. they zigzagged across the main
road, stopping at houses on half mile
roads, first on one side OF the road they
were travelling and then on the other.
Consequently when the fathers Of the
boys would get trac kof them half a
mile of the main road the next trace of
them would be found a half mile on the
other side OF the main road. At every
place they stopped for water or meals
they told where they were from and
where they were going. but denied that
they were running away. They slept in
doors every night, and suffered no i'll
effects from their experience besides sore
feet. They Travelled fast the last half
day before they We're caught. The Leath-
ers boy, in order TO compel his compan-
ion to travel faster. would run away
from him. thus compelling the Moore
boy TO run to keep from being lost. The
Moore boy said that the feathers boy in
duced him to run away by telling him
that he would give him q 600 and sixteen

YOUNG GIRL MISSING
Nellie Sweeney May Have
Met With Foul Play.
LEFT WEDNESDAY, NIGHT
Fathers Horse and Buggy
Found in Livery Barn,

Miss Nellie Sweeney. the adopted daugh-
Ter Of Mr.. Sweeney. house painter in
East Wichita, has been missing since
night before last and much alarm is felt
concerning her disappearance. She drove
out with the family horse Wednesday
evening and has not been seen by her
parents since. Search is being made for
her by friends Of the family. and yester-
day the aid Of Sheriff Simmons was in
voked Until an early hour this morning
the searchers had not met with any sue
cess. II Is thought by a few excitable
persons that she has met with foul play
but that theory is very poorly sustained
by the circumstances Of her disappear
ance. It was ascertained that She left
the horse and buggy at a livery stable
on North Main street at an early hour
yesterday morning, leaving there with
out stating what disposition should be
made Of them. Miss Sweeney is said to
be not more than 10 years Of age. 1t
was intimated by an officer last night
that there need be no fears concerning
the life Of the girl and that her alb
sence is voluntary, but beyond hints Of
this character he would say nothing.

HE EAGLE AND "GRAElS.n
One OF the "Pr0fesh" Makes Talk
TO an Eagle Man.


TO an Eagle Man.
Where did you fellows get onto graft
ers anyhow? never saw a paper in
all my travels that had them down SO
fine. You seem to be able to smell one
as soon as he strikes the town. That's
my business, but did not come to work
Wichita, for I had heard Of the Eagles
fight on grafters. While it is a fight on
my business, the Eagle is right. Ninety
per cent of al schemes that grafters
work towns for are frauds, that is true
enough But DO you know that in any
schemes with an advertising fake I sell
dom undertake to work a merchant who
advertises in the daily papers? I take
the papers and study their advertising
columns and then work the fellows that
don't advertise in the papers but little.
And the less they use the papers the
easier they are to work. You know that
the merchants are learning that they
cannot Go business without advertising
but they have not learned that the only
legitimate and profitable way to adver-
tise is il the local paper. That goes into
the home every day in the year. So
go for them on my scheme that they
ought TO advertise some and I catch them
all right. Hot air is all 1 use. And do
you know that the money these mer-
chants spend annually. if used in the pa
pers, it would bring them good returns
instead Of nothing, as in a hot air prop
osition? And when I go to work a town
I try TO get the work Of the last faker
to get my names from, for the same fell
lows can be worked over and over again.
But did not start in to run down my
own business or to abuse the fellows
that get my living from. But the Eagle
has a reputation in the inter western
country for being hard on grafters. 1t
is all right to educate aud protect your
merchants and that you do honestly,
for I understand that you refuse to do
the jobs for these fellows who occasion
ally get in a graft. What do I call a
graft? We'll. I go farther perhaps on
that proposition than most anyone else.
Anything outside Of q straight newspa-
per advertising is a graft. Programs,
societies, schools, churches, festivals,
church faiTs-no matter what, are CRAFTS
In their way. When one of these organi-
cations proposes to give an entertainment
the first move is to appoint a committee
on program and printing and the mer-
chant mas to pay for it. In this case the
merchant who is the liberal advertiser
is simply Northumberland up. He knows
what kind of an argument they bring TO
bear on him. But enough! I could talk
70 you all day and tell you something
new about how we work the merchants.
but good bye I leave you now for a
fair, fresh field south of US.
