SOME SHOP TALK.
Newspapers are Business Enterprises
and 1t Requires Money to Run Them
Just as 1t Does Any Other Business.

Just as II Does Any Other Business.
The following which is taken from
an exchange is commended to the
thoughtful consideration of those to
whom it is applicable:
There seems to be feeling ON the part
Of some people that a newspaper does
not need money. They do not seem to
regard it as business enterprise in the
conduct of which money is required just
as in any other business. The fact is the
newspaper business is the most exacting
business in the world, the most trying in
every way. 1t has financial obligations
to meet the same as any other business,
and they must be met promptly. Its in
come is derived from many sources and
in small amounts Hence the necessity
of prompt payments by it's patrons.
The conscientious publisher deserves
all he gets and more. His business means
long hours and the greatest care In it's
conduct. The newspaper has the entire
public to deal with. 1t has to deal with
all the factions and cranks in the cOmmu-
nifty, with all the frauds and folks with
axes to grind and to do this successfully
requires judgment and much patience.
1t has power and that power, to the
Vi Dc IL Sttiu, Is llcdIly
always welded for the public good.
Questions of vital concern to home peO-
pie never fail to find support from the
newspapers, and this too without remu-
neratiOn-often without even a word Of
encouragement or thanks. The publisher
devotes his time, energy and money to
the promotion and welfare of his town
and community, and the people never
give a thought to the matter of cost to
him.
Every community needs good news
papers The life and business of town
are judged by it's newspapers. The way
to have good newspapers is to assist in
making the business more profitable.
Subscribe for your home paper, read it
and pay for it. Advertise in it, not be-
cause the paper needs your help, but be-
cause the paper can help you. And when
you do SO pay the editor like you pay the
butcher, the baker and other people. Do
not require him to trade it out'-eat
up or wear out the amount of his bill
thus intoxicating in him the principles ofex-
travagance which are repugnant to his
nature.

Letter to A. T. Barnes.
Henderson,, N. c.

DEAR SIR:-There are two sorts of fur
niture. You know both; for you sell 'em
both. One sort looks better than it is,
and the other is better than it looks
There isn't any other sort.
The same, two sorts of paint, no more;
and we make 'em both-we make tons
of stuff that isn't worth it's freight. Be
longs to the business-have to. Belongs
to your business-you have to.
But this is aside. We put into cans,
with our name On, the very best paint
there is in the world: Devoe Lead and
Zinc. 1t takes fewer gallons than mixed
paints, and it wears twice as long as
lead and OIL
c. o. Brown & Bro, Columbia, S. c.,
write:
Mr.. C. 0. Brown employed an experienced
painter to paint his house with Devoe Lead
and Zinc. The painter, on seeing the paint
that was sent to the house, said that there
was not enough he was so sure of this that he
opened up allexcept one fve-gallon kit. When
the Job was done he returned the five-gallOI
kit and about as much more in open vessels
Other painters who have been using mixed
paints have had the same experience with
DevOe Lead and Zine.

Hannn's Good Act.

Mr. Hanna never showed himself
more worthy of the confidence an6
respect of the republicans of the
country than ne did when he with
drew his opposition to the formal
Endorsement of President Roosevelt
by the Ohio state convention. SO
long as it seemed to be a Foraker
Hanna fight, he opposed it frankly
and openly and forcefully. When,
however. President Roosevelt asked
personally for this Endorsement, Mr..
Hanna instantly withdrew his op-
position. This was excellent politics
from every point of view, but mar
rover man of Mr.. HaBna's tempera-
ment would not have perceived it.
Having set his face against the in
dorsement. he would have persis sted
to the end. Mr.. Hanna. on the con-
trary. said if the president wished
the Endorsement, the president should
have it. and this clinches the nom
nation of Mr.. Roosevelt in 1904. Mr..
Hanna is the only man that could
have defeated Mr. Roosevelt in the
convention ~ Detroit Free Press

DEATH OF FREE TRADE.
Representative Canadian Newspa-
pers and Citizens Declare in
Favor of Protection.

Naturally Canada, which is a pro-
lection country, is deeply interested
in the economic discussion now going
on in Great Britain, and directly con
cerned as to the ultimate result. 1t
is worthy of mention that Representa-
tive Canadian newspapers and promi-
nent citizens of the Dominion very
heartily agree with Mr.. Chamberlain
and other British statesmen in the
stand they have taken in favor of pro-
tective action. Canada knows how it is
herself, for she has prospered under
protection and sees that Great Britain
has reached point where free trade
leaves the nation industrially helpless
before its commercial enemies, says
the Troy Times.
The Montreal Star publishes some
interviews which indicate the feeling
in the Dominion. Under the heading
THE Free Trade Fetish Is Dead" it
says:
'Dr. A. Lapthorn Smith, who has just re-
turned from attending the international
medical congress at Madrid, spent besides
ten days in England during which time
he was forced to the conclusion that Mr..
Chamberlain was probably following, as
well as leading, public opinion in his re-
cent speech, as It was evident to anyone
that there were many millions of people
In England who had ceased to believe in
the free trade fetish. DR.. Smiths own
observations bear out this opinion. AL
ready the whole of the agricultural classes
were in favor of a preferential tax on for
eign products, he says, and many working
men are beginning to see that English
manufacturers could not much longer
stand the inroads of their rivals In going
about London he saw hundreds of beautiful
shops filed with American shoes. and 1t
was quite difficult, indeed, to find one
where English shoes were sold.
THE British farmer is having a very
hard time of it, what with the competition
of foreign food and the frosts which for
the last few years have been running his
small fruit crops, one Of the few things he
had left to depend upon. This year was es
peciaily severe in that respect. Many were
disappointed at the removal of the small
tax on foreign wheat, which had no effect
whatever in raising the price of bread, the
quartern, or two-pound loaf being sold for
two-pence half-penny, the same as 1t had
been for many years past"
The Star also quotes Hon. Alfred B..
Morine, political leader in Newfound
land, who has just returned from a
visit to England, as saying that 'a
sentiment bordering on protection has
taken a firm hold upon a section of the
British people," Newfoundland is not
included in the Canadian Dominion,
but the interests of that island are so
closely allied with those of the main
land that it. is in close sympathy with
the economic views of its neighbors.
All these British possessions are loyal
to the home government, but they
realize the value of protection for
themselves and others. and they wei
come the indications which show that
the people of England are coming to
their way of thinking.

PLAIN AND PRACTICAL.
A Good Lesson for Democrats May Be
Found in the Ohio
Incident.

The democrats, local and national
could pattern after the republicans of
Ohio in one thing to their own great
advantage and the benefit of the coun-
try. and that is the settlement of their
differences within the household and
presentation to the public of a united,
harmonious and enthusiastic organi-
zation. Really. the spectacle is in
structive in party discipline and pub
lie welfare, says the Indianapolis
News Qnd). While slavish submis-
sion is as bad sign in party as con-
tinued lack of union, it must be con-
ceded that if party is to be of use it
must be able to subordinate factional
differences at the critical time to the
general party good. No one that has
observed Ohio politics, even super
ficially. will accuse the republicans of
that state of slavish submission or
party apathy; they are wrangling al
most continually. And no one for
moment supposes in spite of what
took place at Columbus that there are
no art-burnings and differences.
These exist in all their wonted fierce
ness and up to the crucial moment
they were manifest. But when that
moment came they were laid aside and
never did
Two souls with but single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one
present a fuller accord or finer union
than these ancient enemies who, lay
ing aside everything, will battle shoul-
der to shoulder till the victory is won
and then turn to knitting one another
as of yore. The democrats have not
been able to do this these many years.
AT every small opening or hopeful
chance. instead of dropping differ
ences for the time-each putting into
the hands of the other the decision of
the case, so to speak-they no more
than begin. before there is a resurrec-
tion Of old smarts and an opening of
old wounds, and soon they are at ii
hammer and tongs again, disputing
as to the primal right to be "the whole
thing" instead of ''in honor preferring
one another" and so the years go by,
and the democratic party has been a
mere name, and as to influence n
cipher.
