PRESIDENTS COMPROMISE.
Mr. Roosevelt Makes a Suggestion Il
Russian Peace ENJOYS.


Portsmouth. N. H. Aug. 24.-The As
ociated Press is now in position to re-
cal substantially the suggestion OF
President Roosevelt for breaking the
xisting deadlock in the peace negotia-
! lions and rescuing the conference from
failure. His solution would ingenious
~ permit the satisfaction of the Japan
s|ese demands for reimbursement for the
cost OF the war and at the same time
nenable Russia to face the world with
fhe declaration that she had not added
a foot of territory or paid a kopeck of
war tribute to the victor. The solution
Is the one which Las heretofore been
described in the Associated Press dis
patches as the natural and logical COM
promise. Tersely stated. IL consists in
an agreement by Russia to repurchass
possession of either all or half of the
Island Of Sakhalin. now in the military
Occupation of the japanese for a sum.
the exact amount of which. II the two
countries cannot agree. shall be decided
by some method of arbitration hereaft-
! er to be determined. The purchase
H money. together with the sum Japan
/ would obtain from the cession of thu
\ Chinese Eastern railroad and the main
Il tenance of the Russian prisoners in ia
pan would. II is estimated. about equal
the amount claimed by Japan as her bill
\ for the cost of the war. Possibly.
therefore. the solution offered by the
| president involves recession by Japan
upon article five (the cession OF SAX
halin) and recession by Russia upon
| article nine Indemnity. 1t seems
practically certain. though this canno,
be affirmed positively. that the presi-
dent was able to give NJ. White substan-
tial assurances that Japan would be
willing TO accept such a compromise
IL was the presidents message to Mr.
White which caused the sensation of
Tuesday. Early in the morning had
come the official announcement that the
meeting of the conference had been
postponed until Wednesday at 8 20
o'clock. The public reason assigned
was that the protocols for submission
at the sitting had not been completed.
But few hours later the true reason
leaked out. ]. l. McGraw. one of the
offices at Oyster Bay had arrived with
communication from the president for
the Russian plenipotentiaries. NJ.
White and Baron Rosen had left the
hotel ostensibly for a ride to York
Beach. bu. instead had quietly stepped
over TO the conference building at the
navy yard to receive the message from
secretary Pierce. The most elaborate
precautions had been taken to insure
secrecy. but 1t leaked out through a
Up from New York, which reached
the Associated Press.
From 1880 until 2:fo NJ. White. and
Baron Rosen remained at the confer
ence building with Mr.. Pierce. AMI
those present declined to make any
Ietatements regarding what transpired
the navy yard. even refusing to adj
MT that any importance attached to
he matter.

ming to appreciate the value of the
right kind Of advertising.
There is no public institution that
is accomplishing more for the working
men and women than the savings insti-
tutions, and in order to reach these
people they must bring their PROPOSE
tions directly to their notice, and in a
more or less personal manner, and in
no way can this be done except by ad.
vertising.
Advertising in the local newspapers
is the usual beginning. One time adver'
tising will not bring the desired results,
but an organized campaign Of adver
tising cannot but increase the earnings
of a bank so advertised, and work to
the betterment Of the community at the
same time.-White' Sayings.

have had experience in both raising and

Fifteen acres viii be planted the first
Of June. The ground has been put in
excellent condition, and it is known
that a large yield may be counted on,
as was demonstrated two years ago. At
that time comparatively small tract
was planted. The yield was heavy and
the quality excellent, but a defect in
curing greatly lessened the value Of
tho crop.
Sheds for the curing Of this year s
crop win be erected by Mr.. Mellinger.
The sheds win be 100 feet in length. If
the experiment proves a success large
area win be planted to tobacco next
summer.

BUSINESS

JIdiciOuS Publicity Shows a

The average banker will tell you that
theirs is business that does not need
to be advertised, the business comes
their way naturally, and more than
that the nature of the business is such
that it cannot be advertised to any
extent, anyway.
During the past five years a num-
Der of advertising campaigns have
been conducted by banks in the East.
ern states, and the recent checking up
of results in Pitsburg Pa, show during
the time in which the experiments used
publicity an increase of ss per cent in
assets and an increase of s5 per cent in
deposits, and the banks that were not
advertised show but 27 per cent in
crease in assets and IL per cent increase
in deposits, proving very eonelusively
the value Of advertising for banks.
An investigation of the results show
that the advertising was instrumental
chiefly in increasing the small de,
posits or savings accounts. Advertis.
ing Of this sort fosters prosperity, and
is Of great educational value to the
