LEGITIMATE
ADVERTISING.

The Space in a Live Newspaper is Valuable
Commodity. a Fact Which is Apparently
Too Often Overlooked.
The advertiser who pays his
money for a certain amount of
space is entitled TO the use and
benefits of just that amount and no
more. If the publisher Is willing
to grant him favors in the way of
free advertising In the reading
columns, that Is another matter,
and one dependent altogether upon
the inclination and liberalitv of the
publisher.
There are many claims made
upon a newspaper, and often
goanted, but the request for free
advertising under the guise of
news" Is the most unjust ard un-
reasonable of all the rest OF them.
/ - tIC dOASC vi AulS GIDGIallkY
of newspapers that Is grad
TALLY bringing about Restrictions,
which will eventually cause the
publisher 10 make a more positive
distinction in matters of this kind.
There Is distinct difference be-
tween legitimate news and legiti-
mate advertising Ia newspaper
work, and TO newspaper man the
distinction Is as clear IS the differ
ence between high noon and mid.
night-a distinction that has 10 be
made an hundred times a week in
almost every newspaper Office In
the country, and every ne spaper
man has reason to know 1t well 1t
Is hardly likely. therefore, thar the
real import of an article, such as
often comes 10 the Publisher, no
matter how carefully written or
skill ally yelled will be looked up
on by the publisher as legitimate
news, If II partakes Of the nature of
an advertisement.

RULING IN
OIL SUIT.
Judge Willis Decides Stiles Bros.
Balletine & Guterie Con-
trovrsey.
Held That Lease of Stiles Bros. IS in
Full Force and Effect. Valuable
Land in Richie County is Concerned.

Judge Willis, of the Richie
county circuit court, Tuesday, made
ruling In an important oil suit
that was favorable to the interests
of the Petersburg firm of Stiles
Bros. A tract of land, valuable be-
cause of the surrounding opera.
lions, was involved and consider
able interest has been taken In the
matter.
Stiles Bros. had purchased from
Heinselman Bros. lease made to
them by B. Fox and wife OF a tract
of land Is acres In extent, In
Richie county. The lease was
dated June IL, 1922 aud was for
three years. The lease contained
a clause providing that If we'll be
com pleted on the land within thirty
days from that date or In case of
failure, monthly rental of
$50 should be paid. There was
further clause to the effect that In
case we'll that was being drilled
on the Dye farm adjoining should
prove paying well, the lessees
should pay SIS to Fox within FIVE
days after the we'll was drilled. A
failure to pay this SIS meant the
forfeiture of the lease. The Dye
well when drilled proved to be a
producer and the SIS was paid to
Fox. The installment of $Io due
August I4th was not rendered by
mistake of Stiles Bros. until after
that date, but as soon as the mis-.
take was discovered by Stiles Bros.
they rendered it. They were In
formed that Fox had made another
lease with Ballentine & Guthrie,
dated August 25th.
Thereupon Stiles Bros brought
suit In the Richie county court and
obtained an Injunction restraining
Ballentine & Guthrie from oper-
ating under the lease. No for
fixture had been claimed, In
the absence Of forfeiture
clause In the lease, on account of
the few days delay In sending the
rental In the meantime Ballen.
tine & Guthrie had attempted to
transfer part of the lease to the
Adams & SarDer Oil company.a after
the Injunction was obtained. The
defendants answered, dispositions
were taken and the defendants on
the 2Ist inst, through their attor-
neys, Caldwell & Watson, of the
city: A. D. Toilette and Underwood
& Ludy, OF Marietta, argued a mo-
ton before Judge Willis for the
dissolution of the injunction the
plaintiffs were represented by V. B.
Archer and William Beard, of this
city. Judge Willis overruled the
motion to dissolve and held that
there had been no forfeiture and
that the Stiles Bros. lease was In
full force and effect.

The coming year promises 20 see
IN the United States more marvel.
Gus period OF commercial and indus.
trial development than even that oil
the year 1902. The prediction may be
safely made that American trade with
the East will be doubled during the
next twelve months and the United
States will become the dominant
power OF the Pacific ocean. IL Is not
beyond the bounds OF possibility that
within the next decade the empire OF
trade and commerce will pass from
the Atlantic To the Pacific shores.
Having I'm mind the vast strides
taken 10y our country In comparatively
n few recent years. what the volume
OF our commerce will be in another
quarter OF n century II would be fool
fish 10 predict. but II will be enormous.
That the influence OF America and the
American people throughout the world
will have increased. SO that they viii
have become net only the great com
me. cial nation OF the world. but the
greatest In political rank and power
and influence and responsibility can
scarcely be doubted by those who
have an abiding :aith in the energy
and wisdom and integrity OF the
American citizen.
The producing powers OF the United
States are still in their Infancy. Com
pare our producing area with that OF
the well.developed and welltilled
countries OF Europe and Il will be ap-
parent az n glance that H. the matter
Of agriculture We may and shall In
crease enormously the products OF the
soil. not only I'm increasing the actual
product per acre. but by bringing un'
der cultivation many millions OF acres
which are now non productive.
In the matter Of mines and minerals
our production and productive powers
have scarcely begun TO show their
possibilities. In all the great articles
which enter into manufacture-the
products OF the mine. the forest and
the fleld-we are the worlds greatest
producer and likely to continue so in
definitely. We have more OF coal.
more % iron. more OF copper. more OF
timber. more Of cotton. more OF all the
requirements which enter into the
processes OF the manufacture OF artl'
Giles required by the world at large
civilized or unciyilIzed. than any other
nation. We have the skill and energy
with which TO turn these into manu-.
features. by far the greatest railway
system OF the world 20 carry them to
the waters edge and great ocean on

ing millions OF the world.
This Is a review Of what We have
done In the past, and only by II can
We measure or attempt TO measure
what we shall do In the future. What
wonders in the way Of inventions and
discoveries the next few years may
have in store can only dlmly be
guessed at. a great thinker and IN.
