Towns Should Advertise.

One of the first requisites of good
business man, in this age of mercantile
activity, is that he should understand
the art of advertising. The same rules
that govern private concerns should
govern the business affairs of cities.
Every civilized town that has indus
trial aspirations and hopes to grow and
prosper must let the world know what
it has to offer by way of induce
mants. Manufacturing enterprises,
business and professional men are ever
seeking desirable locations, and it is a
noticeable fact that comparatively few
cities and towns are attracting them.
This is because many towns which pos
sess good water-power, good shipping
facilities, good schools and residential
advantages, lack the life and enter
prise to let the world know what they
possess. They do not grow because
they are unknown. They are like the
drowsy merchant who doesn't think it
worth while to advertise, but prefers
TO Sit and watch the spiders spin webs
across his doorway.
Every new enterprise that locates in
a town adds to the prosperity and bust
ness possibilities of every dealer in the
place, and every citizen who has his
own good and the good of the com.
munity at heart should take hand in
getting his town in touch with the
busy wide awake world FIR ON "The
Worlds Progress" in Four Track

rIerriIl Bros Big Mill.

Dents Run, station on the low
grade railroad, is a booming business
place this year. The big saw mill of
G. B. Merrill & Bros, is running full
time and cutting about $4,000 feet of
lumber daily, mostly hemlock. They
have still timber enough in sight to
keep the operation going at least two
years yet. At Whilmer, a new mining
town, not far from Dents Run, the
Ridgway Record says that another
opening is being made for coal across
the stream from the first mine opening
The operators are Frank Williams &
Co., and they are building large tip
pie and number of residences for
their men, They have a three foot
vein. The 100 men have been making
good time the past six weeks in spite
of the prevailing dullness in the coal
trade elsewhere.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
from our Regular CorrespOndentJ
Washington, June 4th, 1904


Editor Press:
AS the time approaches for the
assembling of the great nominating
conventions, the political situa
ton becomes more interesting, and
some unexpected changes are
noticed. The Cabinet Ministers
who have been West and East are
returning and reporting at the
White House. They bring good
news and are satisfied with the situa-
tion. Secretary Hitchcock is back
from st. Louis; and Secretary
Cortelvou has returned from a tour
Of inspection in and around New
York. The question of who
should be of the Republican ticket
for Vice President will be left for
the Chicago convention to deter
mine. A Representative from In
diana, who called at the White
House yesterday, informed the
President that while Senator Fair
banks will not strive for the nomi-
nation, he will not decline it if it
comes to him as the voluntary
wish of the party. Congressman
Hepburn, of Iowa, also saw the
President yesterday. He says that
Speaker Cannon under no circum-
stances will consent to become
Vice President. Little is now said
regarding Mr.. Hit for that office.
Sir Chentung Liong Cheng, the
Chinese Minister, has been in New
York for few days with Prince
Pu Lun. He was received with
great ceremony by the New York
Stock Exchange, and in a speech
by its President he was assured
that if the United States insists up
on an open door in China, the
Chinese have just as good a right
to insist upon an open door in Am
erica, with the same treatment for
the subjects Of that Empire as we
require for Americans in China.
News comes from Atlantic City,
that Chaochu WI, son of the form
er Minister from China, took the
first prize on graduation day in the
high school at that place. He
speaks English perfectly and is
studying French, German and
Latin. He will pursue his studies
at the University of Pennsylvania.
The boy was educated in the public
schools at Washington and has
many admirers in this city.
1t is known that Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General Bristow
has been engaged for some time in
the formidable task of reorganiz-
ing the rural free delivery in order
to be ready for the new arrange
ments provided by law which go
into operation on the first of July.
The number Of divisions is to be
reduced from eight to six; rural
agents are to be employed, and the
new schedule of salaries will take
effect. The department will not
be able to do as much for the clerks
as it intended, since for the coming
fiscal year the amount appropriated
for the increase of salaries is but half
a million of dollars while for the
current year the amount was one
million and two hundred thousand
dollars. OF clerks employed in
the postal service whoreceive more
than 81, 400 year, of whom there
are more than 600, only 5S can be
promoted. OF those who receive
less than 81 400 only about 80 per
cent of those who have been re-
commended for promotion will be
made happy. And yet, the Demo
Gratis, in their state platform, love
tor harp upon the extravaganza of
the Republicans in voting away
the public money.
