Who Pays the Piper.

Free advertising, in the general
ly accepted sense Of that term,
says tho Columbus Citizen, is not
the most desirable kind; but it is
nevertheless a fact that tho great
bulk Of paid newspaper advertis-
ing costs the advertiser nothing.
That is to say, it indirectly re-
turns to him not only the amount
invested, but profit in which the
whole community shares.
The bulk Of newspaper udver-
tising is placed by merchants. The
money it costs is paid almost Who'll
ly in salaries and incidentals to
Individuals in the community IN
which tho advertiser resides, SO
that his return is not wholly from
tho general trade lie seeks, but also
the injection Of this amount of
money into the trade of his COM
munity, with the result of enlarg.
ing it, parpetuating 1t and multi
plying its resources in all forms Of
industry.
The merchant feels the pulse of
prosperous or adverse conditions
more delicately than almost any
other member Of the community.
Newspapers pay by far the larger
portion of expenses in building up
the community. Their lnvestme ent
is not nearly as great in machinery.

property as in brains and Drawn.
That is the reason why money
spent with them by local mer-
chants brings two.fold returns in

respects, in reality makes paii ad =

SION AFTER THIS WEEK.
Most of the important Matters Have
Already Been Acted Upon House
Refuses to Repeal Lien Law.

Columbia, Feb. 11,-There Is but
o.one more week Of the general as
sembly after the present week.
Most Of the important matters be.
fore the two houses have already
been acted upon and they will very
likely be ready for adjournment at
the expiration of the forty days.
Much Of the time Of the last few
days of the session will, as usual,
be devoted to the appropriation and
supply bills.
THE LIEN LAW.
The house on Tuesday killed Mr..
Ki5ier's bill to repeal the lien law.
The bill provoked a long discuss
ion. The chief argument used by
those against the repeal was that
the law helps the poor farmers,
enabling thom to borrow money
from the bank at current rates Of
interest, and also acts as q credit
system for the merchants.
NO FOUR-YEAR TERMS.
The house has also killed the
bill looking to four year terms for
FITS members. 1t was naturally
thought this would follow In tho
wake Of the biennial sessions bill
Ind that the two constitutional
hdments would be submitted

stood 90 to 80 in favor of the
which required SO votes (the
itutional two thlrds) for it's
ige. 1t, therefore, lacked 81
votes in order to pass.
NO MARRIAGE RECORD.
The house after passing Mr..
Ford's bill to provide for keeping
a record Of marriages, births and
deaths to its third reading, recon-
mitted the bill, which means It's
