SECRETARY OF WAR TAFT, act ing for the President, has selected the City National Bank of New York, owned by the Standard Oil interests, as the depository for funds collected by this govern ment as receiver for San Domingo. This sum will amount to millions of dollars and of course will be worth considerable to the City National Bank. No one would surely presume to say that the fact that this bank IS controlled by Standard Oil had anything to do with the bestowal of this favor, for are We not told that the ad- ministration Is ''agin" this crowd ? It was simply coincidence to be sure.

TRATES OF THE INDIAN

Series, is notable in that it treats the In

In gathering material for his account of
these Indian wars. Mr.. Brady not only
interviewed the white survivors of the en-

with the Indians. and was able to obtain
their personal view of the situation. The
illustrations of the book are similarly un
usual. especially from the Indian side.
There are forty-eight portraits of officers
and Indians, the latter from exceedingly
rare contemporary portraits. and a dozen
specially drawn pictures by artists who
are widely celebrated for their accurate

him most in connection with the subject.
He once knew an insane chemist who in
sisted that he was dead. Dr.. Taylor
argued long and ably. and finally said:
"Now, you as a chemist know that il you
are dead you cannot bleed. Will you
let me cut you slightly by way of expert
ment?" The monom.niac agreed. and.
of course. wher an incision was made in
his arm blood flowed instantly. There"
said DR.. Taylor. THAT proves that you
are not dead" "Oh. no." was the conf
dent reply. "it mere shows that dead men

MATTHEW STANLEY QUAY.

In the se1sN February Is. Senator
Clarence/D. Clark of Wyoming paid
th~ following beautiful and touching
tribute to Senator Matthew Stanley
Quay:
Mr.. President. there was sorrow in
many a heart when Matthew Stanley
Quay passed from the scene of his
earthly activity. 1t was almost impos-
sible to realize that this man, strong
among his fellows, keen in initiative,
~resourceful in execution, and Ire in
results, should no longer have a place
among the living sons of men. To be
sure his life had been one of intense
activity, civil and military, from the
time he first courted fortune in the
south until the last day he occupied
his place in this chamber, and as we
pause to re1ect on all that came to his
lot in those years, the things attempt
ed, the difficulties encountered and
overcome, the victories and successes
hard fought for and won, as we recall
the fact that the full span of life al
lotted to man, and more, had been his,
We know hat his life had been full;
yet in spite of all these reflections his
death seemed TO us sudden and prema
ture.
1T is no part of my purpose to re-
count with anything of detail the life
of our departed friend. We all knew
him as a man who had carved out his
own fortunes, one who had succeeded
in life by dint of his own exertions, re-
sponsible to no man for his action and
with a self confdence that rose super
ior to all fear and overcame all diff
culties, and yet a self confidence that
was as far removed from egotism or
self-sufficiency as is day from night.
Quiet and sparing in speech and mild
in manner, he yet had that unalterable
determination that conquers success
Where others hesitated, he attempted;
when the hearts of others failed, he
reorganized his columns and pressed
on to accomplishment
I'm political matters especially was
his daring noticeable. Many a forlorn
hope has he led in this chamber and
time and time again brought victory
out Of what seemed almost impossible

ABOUT ADVERTISING.

The object of advertising is to bring
he article advertised prominently be
fore the people and direct their atten-
ton to its merits. That is all there is
to it. Having learned this fact. all that
is left for the merchant or other adver
tiser to do is to select the medium
which will give the best results. Ad-
vertising upon fences and deadwalls is
not the most effective means, nor a
it be said that hand bills give the
highest results. Fences m walls do
not go to the people and bills are plac-
cd in gates and doors and too often in
~culverts and bitches.
Having decided upon the articles to
be advertised, the merchant should fix
the most reasonable price consistent
with good business n present the
matter in an attractive form through
the medium of the local paper, which
reaches h homes of the best people
and at a time when they have the leis,
ure to give consideration t o the pur-
chase of clothing. provisions, etc. For
this reason the local paper gives the
best results. 1t a beer tested time
and again by the most e~nterprising and
progressive merchants of The nation.
Such men as Marshall Field and John
Wanamaker use the newspaper almost
exclusively. They give great attention
to the matter of advertising their
wares and employ special men to do
nothing else but prepare attractive ad'
v~ertisements. OF course this would
not be profitable to the merchants of
small towns, but careful individual at
tention will bring splendid results.
Business men must put earnest
thought and their best talent into their
advertisements and then do just as
they advertise.
Specialties should receive careful at
tention, and it should always be the
endeavor of the merchant to give
prices to the people. Lots of people
are induced to send away for goods
they could have purchased just as
cheaply at home because of a price
list from an outside house and lack OF
knowledge in relation to home prices
The local paper being the best adver
Using medium, Their it naturally fol
lows that the paper with the largest
circulation gives the best results. A
paper with three times the subscribers
another one has certainly gives three
times the results and an advertisement
therein is therefore of three times the
value. This is a fact that cannot be
disputed.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 90. 1905.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1905-02-08
Machen Goes to Prison.

The postal scandal and subsequent
investigation has begun to bear fruit
in the incarceration Of August w.
Machen and his partners in crime, Sam
uel A. and Diller5 B. Croft. While no
one gloats over the imprisonment Of
these men, who were capable Of so much
better things, it is yet satisfaction
that the American people are emerging
from that state of maudlin sympathy
which makes it SO difficult to deal prop
erly with convicts of high social stand
ing. Machen' g punishment is particu-
larly necessary in view of the vastness
of the machinery of the postoffice de-
partment and the wisdom Of having a
striking example before the men who
are still there. 1t is presumed that all
the employees are honest, but they are
much more apt to remain so when they
understand that the honesty is not only
the best policy, but the only safe road.
Crimes against the government are
not more despicable than private
lapses, but they carry more weight
with the public if they are not ade-
quately punished. Machen occupied a
prominent position before all the young
men Of the country who aspire or may
aspire to places of trust in the great
department. His good conduct meant
the good conduct Of a great many
more men. Therefore his punishment
will mean striking example to large
number of men.
