Newspaper Advertising Pays Best.

The National Electric Light associa- tion, in convention in Denver, decided officially after mature deliberation that newspaper advertising pays best, and :n that action took its stand wi.h many other national industrial organ izations which in the past years have discussed the question. Advertising scarcely known a century ago, has be- come essential to almost ever@ busi- ness. Scientific study has followed among men who wish to get the great est possible return for their money. There are four common methods: By mail in a personal letter, on a bill board, in a magazine, in a newspaper. AS a rule, advertisers have found that the circular Is cast aside unopened or with cursory glance. The billboard will not suffice for details, although if the object merely is to keep the name of the article in mind, it has its uses. The magazine comas out too infre- quently and as the advertisements in it are "bunched." position is almost impossible, and the individual notice
 
 sesses all the advantages and none of the disadvantages of the others, with many advantages they do not possess. It is as prompt as the mailed circular It is seen by more people than the billboard, and given more minute at tention, and in it's columns position" may be had for any advertisement
 Yet it would be absurd for any daily paper to claim that it is the most suitable for all classes Of advertisers or to accept all classes of advertising and expect to keep its circulation. Ire family daily which endeavors to print all the news that s fit to print. but carefully excludes the unfit. its aim being cleanliness as well as accur icy, as a rule is not a profitable organ for that class Of advertisers who would reach an element that does not con slider cleanliness essential The deal CT in cuack nostrums should know that the conservative newspaper is not his field He would confine himself to the yellow daily sheet and similar weekIies and monthlies.

APPROPRIATIONS CANAL co.
Contract Let Yesterday for z5,OOO
 Cubic Yards of Excavation.

The Appropriations Canal company yesterday Jet contract to Grant Brothers for the excavation of 75,O00 cubic yards of dirt. This amount of work is expected to extend the new canal approximately twelve miles fur ther west or somewhere in the vicin- ity of Will Rays ranch.
 It is understood the contractors eX- pect to begin work at once and prob ably complete their contract in a cou- pie of months or before the summer is over. having the ditch ready for use the coming fall. The canal will par aHel the Grand canal lying north of it.
 The ApprOpriatOrs have thus fan accomplished much and it is asserted by some of their officers that the stockholders through the saving of this years crop alone will get back as much or more money than has been expended so far. There is some diff ference of opinion concerning the wis dom of undertaking quite so much, quite so rapidly, in view of the pos sibiIity of the government taking charge of the entire north side system at an early date. However, the pro- posed new dam cannot be built for a year yet, and it is quite likely that another seasons crops will have to be cared for before the desirable system is perfected, wherefore it may prove money well expended as a present utilitariap move, just as the preceding work has proved, irrespective of any bearing it may have on the ultimate canal situation.
 Yesterday the AppropriatOrs turned a head of 4,OOO inches into the Mari copa canal which will make a whole lot of farmers temporarily happy at least, and when the farmers are hap py everybody else is.

Why Not Peace ?

The "war party in St. Petersburg is insisting that Russia should not make peace with Japan until Russian pres tige has been restored by victory for Linevitchs army. So pronounced is this feeling that the Russian en- voys will have difficulty in reaching conclusions with the Japanese envoys at Washington, unless a great battle has been fought in the meanwhile. It is evident that Japan fully appreciates the situation, and proposes to leave no ground for the war party in Russia to stand upon. Field Marshal Oyama is steadily enveloping the Russian army, and when the peace envoys meet Linevitch will have been defeated in a great battle, or the positions of the two armies will be such that victory for the Japanese will be certain when a fight does occur. Under these cir cumstances, the longer the Russian en- voys delay the conclusion of peace the stronger will be the arguments of san- ity against a prolongation of the war
 By insisting upon restoring prestige
 
 fire eaters in Russia have already placed their government in a hole Be fore the Baltic squadron sailed for the far east 1t would have bean much easier to meet Jaoan's terms than it is now. Nobody could foresee with certainty the outcome of fight be- tween the fleets of Rojestvensky and Togo, and Japan would have been glad to end the war on terms liberal to the czar. But in pursuit of prestige the war party lost about all the rep utation that Russia had remaining as one of the worlds great powers. There is no reason to expect a different out come on the land if there is a fight between Linevitch and Oyama before the envoys meet at Washington.
 And why should not Russia hasten to make peace now rather than later? In every war one side must lose. lii every war one Of the powers involved must swallow its pride and admit that

INDEMNITY QUESTION WILL

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Aug. "a
The much discussed question OF an
Indemnity or reimbursement, as the
Japanese term it, is not going to prove
such a great obstacle in the pending
peace negotiations as was at first
thought. Russian army and navy ex-
perts here will assist in arriving at a
determination of the actual cost OF
the war to Japan, and 1t Is thought
they will bring the sum down TO a
reasonable basis.
After three-hours' session this
morning the peace commissioners

Both sides now appear to be quite
hopeful of satisfactory results, and
