Advertising Is the Golden Gate" to
prosperity.
1t has been predicted that in time the
newspaper advertisement will be the
universal and exclusive means Of pub
licity. not only for business but for all
other affairs.
At the recent meeting in New York
Sphinx Club. advertising" was the
subject that was discussed. One of the
speakers. Mr.. r. G. Ogden. stated that
advertising is as essential as place Of
business. To beginners he said: You
must contrive In the shortest possible
time to let the greatest possible num-
ber Of citizens know of your existence.
This is general advertising. Then call
attention to particular goods. which IS
special advertising. Teach people to be-
lieve your announcements"
A few years ago great deal of In
genuity was wasted In fooling people
into reading advertisements. The com
m0nest plan was to devise a newspaper
article which. beginning as thrilling
story. ended as a fiat advertisement.
Few people. however. read beyond the
point where the advertisement proper
commenced. This method of obtaining
readers soon fell into desuetude. and
the ingenious advertiser now prints
only the advertisement: but he makes
the ad so interesting that everybod!

is unfounded. We hope and believe that

In appreciation when they are going

Then, too, there is the peril of over
confidence. The very fact that condi-

zens to believe that Republican success
will be achieved without much effort.
This is a mistake. 1t is never wise to
take anything for granted In politics.
In spite of It's past buffetings, and per-

Democracy is still hungry and thirsty

morrow in this spirit and we shall have

IN A NUTSHELL.

| Republicanism means protection, pros
perity, progress, sound money, high
wages, honest elections and good times.
Democracy means free trade. calamity,
| bad money, business failures poor wages,
| idle men, soup houses, dishonest clec
tons and hard times.
II you want good times TO continue do
all YOU can to keep the Republican party
| in power. If you want hard times, vote
the Democratic ticket
The Republican party offers substance,
the Democratic party offers shadows The
people once before dropped the Republi-
| can meat out of their mouths trying TO
grab the Democratic shadows Surely
they will not repeat that folly.
The Democratic party has been on the
wrong side of every great political ques-
tion for the last fifty years, and during
a II that time has been predicting evil and
fighting for free trade.
The people of the United States got
their fingers burned ten years ago fooling
with Democratic free trade fire. a burned
child breads the fire, and the American
people dread Democratic free trade fire.
The Democrats have great deal to say
against trusts; but the Democratic repre-
sentatives in congress voted against Il
proposed amendment to the constitution
to give congress the right to regulate ana
| control The trusts. The Republicans voted
for the amendment.
Democratic predictions of evil six years
ago all turned out 10 be false; the Repub-
lican predictions of good all turned out
TO be true. Shall we now reject the party
that led us To prosperity and accept the
party that would have led us to ruin?
Democrats say they don't want the
brown men of the Philippine islands gov
erned without their consent hut these
same Democrats have disfranchsed the
colored men of the south. and are gov
erning them in violation of the constitu-
tion of the United States. Democratic
charity begins ten thousand miles from
home and never reaches home
Remember that in working FOR the Re
publican party YOU are working for your
self, All that we have that is good in

lican party.

president and congress at the same time
| only once in forty years. and that one
time they almost ruined the country Let

While the continued output OF these
three countries has kept pace with the
production of the rest OF the world. their
relative position has been materially al
tered. In 1868 the United Kingdom pro-
duced over three times as much as either
the United States or Germany, the output
of these countries being approximately o.,

ton was about the same, although the
United States had gained upon Germany
as n coal producer. BY 1915 the output ot
the United Kingdom was still considerably
greater than the combined production OF

fE NOISE ana roar of par
tisan discussion now gives
Il way To the sober second
thought preceding the talk
ing of the ballot. and this is wholly in
the Republican partys favor.
1t is underst God on all sides that the
one hope OF the opponents of Republic
canism in this state and county has
been in the possibility of their effecting
diversion of Republican strength. In
the state they put up Pattison. think
ing TO catch Republicans unfriendly to
Quay; and in the county Howell was
named for congress because the Demo-
Gratis thought he would divide the vote
of the Welsh americans. The cam
paign has been played by the Demo-
cratic leaders to these two ends. Every
thing which could tend to stir up dis
sension among Republicans and get
them to fighting each other has been
used FOR all it was worth and some
times more. They drew a frightful
nightmare picture and labeled it the
state machine and tried to scare the
timid: and locally they dressed up IL
fearsome bogey man and labeled it
Boss Connell and did everything they
could 10 get Republicans panic-strcken
1t does not appear that they have
been successful. There are no signs of
a political revolution or panic II here
and there some skittish Republican has
been scared, little sober thinking be-
fore going to the polls should allay his
nervousness. There Is a homely saving
which comes in pat in this connection.
1t is Il dirty bird that would befoul its
own nest. Let the Democrats try to
make out that the Republican nest is
foul, If they want to, seeing that they
have no other subject to talk about.
but let no Republican vote an endorse
ment of their ISLANDERS. Let Republi-
cans remember that the party's good
so far overbalances the party's bad
that even If what the Democratic de-
famers said We're true it would be
worth while to accept the bad for the
sake OF the good. But what the Demo-
Gratis say Is not true, and they know
1t and Republicans know it: and the
best answer to their untruths is to go
to the polls tomorrow and give them
another swattng, as a reminder that
back-biting and false witness are not
the proper methods of securing office.
A little instruction along that line
will do them good,

quite recently it had not been intro.
duced into this country. Our bankers
and tinanciers were we'll acquainted
with its advantages. but there were
various reasons why it was not or
| could not e>intrOduced. In no country
is banking more restricted by state and
federal legislation. The treasury is the
center of our banking system. Upon
it the banks depend for their circu-
lating medium, for the expansion OF
contraction of the currency, for thei,
charters, for an official guarantee of
their solvenoy and for realizing their
assets when they fall into difficulties
or helping them over the fence when
in danger of doing SO. The relation
ship between our national banks and
the treasury is in many directions more
intimate STILL but these belong to the
domain of high or scientific finance, OF
which people in general are happily un-
conscious
In 1898 an act was passed by the New
York legislature authorizing branch
banking in any city with over d mil
lion of inhabitants. Awaiting himself
of this law. Mr.. Nash as president of
one of the most fourishng banks in
eight small independent institutions
which in turn were re-esta ablshed as
branch banks, and added to as occa :
sion arose or business; Judgment ap-
proved. AT present the Corn Exchange
bank has fourteen branch establish
ments in New York. They are neither
duplicates nor patterns of those found
in Canada, for instance. The idea in
which they originated is a commons
place of every business man who finds
his affairs prospering. He follows the
line OF least resistance in gaining GUS

The subsidiary branches are entirely
subordinate to the central bank. They
make business, but they do not con-
troll it. They have no initiative inde-
pendent of the head office. Their
officers are frequently changed and
minute and eXacting statements are
demanded and given of each days
business. A depositor in branch bank
is a customer of the head bank. The
manager must of necessity be familiar
with the business people and neighbor-
hood in which he is located and is per-
mitted to act Independently to that ex-
tent.
The chief objection of the opponents
of branch banks is that owing to their
dependence upon Il central bank which
has great capital and concerns itself
chiefly with large transactions, they
would not be likely to seek or welcome
the so-called dime depositors and bor-
rowers. Mr.. Nash says this is "a mis-
take. Small transactions, he says, are
the most profitable and the most Sc
cure. 1t is largely to facilitate these
that branch banks are established and
so many Independent banks founded.
Mr.. Nash believes that the system is
capable of national extension.
