OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Members of Congress and news
papens have frequently pointed out
the importance of extending the rural
free delivery service, though there are
some OF the nations legislators during
the present session who have striven
to restrict the appropriation for it.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
p. v. De Graw has been making a
personal investigation and is con-
WINGED that the service should be in.
creased until it embraces every rural
community of the country.
Mr.. De Graw. is given as authority
for the statement that physicians
recommend the introduction of rural
free delivery in even the romotest re-
gions, as sure cure for melanchoHa
and other depressing ailments that as
sail an isolated life. While travelling
in some of the mountainous regions
Of New England Mr.. De Graw was the
guest Of a physician who showered
blessings upon the system, with the
udlly IOuuQ VI Cl10 CdIIl6I. L us puy 81
clan explained that it was GOd-send
as a cure for melancholia and that the
official statistics of the isolated regions
showed that the number of SUICIDES
had materially decreased since rural
free delivery became general.
The physician, in further explana-
ton, said that thousands of persons
who before the installation of rural
free delivery were unaccustOmed to
the sight Of visitor for weeks and
months at a stretch, were now cheer
ed by the daily call of the carrier.
These persons are permitted to be in
touch with the outside world. They
have something new to talk and think
about. thereby diverting their minds
from their personal troubles.
The march Of progress will not let
the rural free delivery fall by the way
side. If Congress in a paroxysm IF
economy is anxious to prune apprC-
priations let it make the beginning n
some other place.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1906-05-18

Even better proof is given by the
plan Of many members Of the Demo
cratic club TO boom Mr.. Bryan for the
Democratic nomination in 1908, as the
best man in the country to check the
advance Of Hearstism.
What a change since 1896. Then
the radicalism of Mr.. Bryan alarmed
the country. The markets were para
lyzed as long as there seemed any
chance of his election, and good men
justified the use of colossal sums Of
money in order to defeat him, believ-
ing that the safety of the republic was
imperilled by his candidacy. But now
in 1906, only ten years later, even con-
servatives are turning to him, in the
belief that he and he only, can save
the Democratic party from Hearst,
and the country from the possible
triumph Of class hatred
Mr. Bryan is undoubtedly a broader
and bigger man than he was ten years
ago, and is more inclined to approach
great questions from the standpoint of
the statesman than that of the agita-
tor. His criticism has become con-
structive rather than destructive. His
article on 'indlviduahsm versus Social
ism" is notable of this. The Times
praise of it is justified.
The change, however, has not been
all on the part of Mr. Bryan. Public
opinion has changed also. There has
been such an advance in radicalism in
the past ten years that Mr. Bryan be-
gins to look now as a conservative
Even the Republican party has adopt
ed some of the very measures which
he advocated. Mr.. Bryan is now dis
covered to be in the attitude, not of a
prophet Of revolution, but an advocate
OF reform. In some things he seems
more radical than Mr.. Roosevelt him
self Therefore, it is that New York
Democrats who for ten years have
fought Mr.. Bryan are now almost ready
to welcome him with open arms if by
so doing they can destroy Mr.. Hearst
and head of the soclalistic agitation.
1t does not follow all this that the
country in 1908 will find in Mr.. Bryan
the best man for president, but it will
indeed be justified in turning to him
If the alternate be the triumph of a
policy Of social revolution. Mr.. Bry-
ans advocacy of government owner
ship of railroads viii, however, be a
hard pill for the New York conserya-
tiVes to follow.

HAIRY ELEPHANTS.

The skin Of the elephant is prac-
tically destitute Of the hairy coet
which is the distinctive covering Of
mammals. But the extinct man.
moth had an undercoat of reddish
brown woogy fur, in which dark,
bristly hairs were thickly set. Both
wool and hair have been found with
remains in the frozen soil of Siberia.
Some years since traces of this fur
were discovered in the Indian ele-
plant, and from time to time in
dividuals occur in which the hairs
are developed to such an extent as
to be noticeable by casual observ-
ers. A natural history journal has
called attention to the fact that
there is now a hairy elephant in the
geological gardens at Basel. So thick
is the growth that at the congress
of biologists at Berne in August,
1904, the remark was made-of
course in jest-that the animal was
really a mammoth. Rustum, an In
dian elephant that lived in the Re
gents park gardens from 1876 to
1882, when it was presented to the
Berlin gardens was slmost as hairy.
The calf born in London in 1902
had a hairy coat, as may be seen
from its mounted skin in the Nat
ural History museum

= Is the Only Musical instruments Dis.
tinetly National.
The bagpipe of Scotland is the
Vnly instrument of which it may be
said that it is distinctly national.
The violin, the flute, the horn and
other instruments are common to
many nations, but the bagpipe is pc
cular to Scotland, and, although it
does not now occupy the position it
once did, it is found in no other
country.
In the days when the notorious
Rob Roy committed his depreda-
tons, when the Vieh Ian Vohrs lived
securely in their highland fast
ness and kept up their dignifed So
cial position-in the stirring times
Of which Sir Walter Scott has told
us-the bagpipe player was one of
the important personages in the
chieftain's retinue, and these may be
considered as the palmy days of the
instrument.
Within the region more strictly
known as the highlands its shrill
note was the first sound that fell on
the ears of infancy. 1t charmed the
rude Caledonians in times of Joy
ard comforted them in scenes Of
mourning. It animated their he
roes in battle and welcomed them
back from their conflicts, and wher-
ever their chiefs went it accompa-

only for the time being, but perman-
emily. An advertisement that brings
a customer to a store but once shows
that either the advertisement or the
store itself created but a shallow i'm
preston. Right here is a commonly
unappreciated fact-that, no matter
how well your story may be told in
print after all it can but bring in the
people. The most important part to-
ward profitable results must rest with
the storekeeper, his clerks, his stock
and the air of fiendhness and popu,
larity which pervades the whole-the
store atmosphere, the come again"
feeling. Money spent in advertising
can be wasted in a no more effective
way than by having one or more tired
or unRccommodating clerks, the re-
suit being about the same as a visitor
at a home feels who has received an
effusive invitation to call, but who
meets an untidy house or a frosty vel.
come when the cali is made.
But, presuming that the storekeeper
proves to be a good business farmer
and that his store and help are an
they should be, then the newspaper
must furnish the fertility necessary to
the crop. First of all, while it is a
vehicle for carrying advertising, It
must be a wanted and popular paper,
and to possess the necessary features
to bring this about creates antagonism
between conflicting jnterests-the
claims Of the reader to a sufficient
amount of news matter in return for
the subscription price and the efforts
Of the publisher to secure advertising
revenue, without which his paper
would not pay.
While advertising is news in a
sense, nobody su-bscribes for a paper
in order to read advertisements. A
paper so filed would have no circula-
ton. Nobody would pay for it. The
successful newspaper, we think, is the
one which best succeeds in preserving
that balance which makes it desirable
alike to both reader and advertiser
which means that it must first be a
newspaper or contain some particular
merit in itself which is worth buying
at fixed price per year.
Some papers, from their appear.
ance, seem to have sold themselves.
body and soul, to advertisers. 1t is
difficult to understand why they have
subscribers except unwilling ones who
feel bound to take their home paper,
whether it is worth its cost or not.
and certainly such papers must be so
caTelessly read as to give to their ad-
vertising patrons very little value.
Again, even a good paper must circu-
late the story of business within the
territory wherein business may rea-
sOnably be expected to be done by the
firm paying for the story. An adver-
tiser should gauge his payment for
space on tributary circulation-thatI
is, a circulation of 1000 copies tribu-
tary to his store is worth to him five
times in money more than a circula-
ton Of 200 copies. This is too sim

Senate Will Decide
Type Of Canal.

The announcement, through The As
ISOLATED Press dispatches, that a ma
jOrity Of the senate committee on In
teroceanic Canals were in favor Of the
sea level plan, is a disappointment 10
those who confidently expected that
the big ditch would be construct

viii naturally seek the shorter
route that the Panama canal will Of
fer between Atlantic and Pacific ports,
as the sea level plan means that from
y TO 20 years longer will be necessary
for its completion, to say nothing Of
the vastly increased expenditure Incl
dent 70 that form Of construction.
The Savannah News, reviewing the
matter previous to the announcement
that the committee, by one majority,
was for reporting in favor. of a sea
level canal, had the following TO say
upon the subject:
On several occasions We have called
attention to the probability that it
would take congress a long time to
settle the question as TO whether the
canal we are constructing across the
lsthmus of Panama should be a lock
and dam canal of a sea level cana,
and We have seen Il stated that It.
didn't make much difference whether
congress settled the question or not,
because the president had authority
90 settle II II congress failed to do
so. and that he had already decided
TO construct a lock. and dam canal
ID seems, however, that congress is
going to undertake 70 settle the ques-
ton as TO the kind Of a canal that
shall be constructed, and on Saturday
the senate committee on Interoceanic|
Canals took a vote on il, preparatory
70 making a report to the senate. and
Il was found that the committee was
evenly divided.
IL the committee is evenly divided

work before the type of canal is de-

But Il seems that the recent earth

tons Of many congressman, and per-
haps on that Of the president, as TO the
kind Of canal that ought TO be built.

so anxious as he was 20 assume the
responsibility that the dams and locks
might be shaken TO pieces even before

question may take as much time tol
