pay to advertise You cannot cope
with present day competition unless
you advertise properly II you DO
not, It's matter of sh orr time, and
your business is a goner.
SOME ADS THAT PAID
81 have In mind some Of our spec
cial ads. that did extraordinary work
as, for instance. selling 8. 126 bars of 1
soap in one day and not more than
ten bars to any eustomer, 1,27S cans
of sugar corn in one day s sale and
not more than five cans to one Gus
toner, 2 400 pounds of prunes In
eight hours and only eight pounds
to one customer and 67s dozen GIN
ger snaps in for-hour sale. linit
Of five dozen to each.
Il could mention instances By the
score. but this shows what adVertis-
E ing and system can accomplish even
in a small city. and / want to state
that all our goods are sold ait a pro-

This experience corresponds with
1.-THE experience of hundreds of mer-
chants elsewhere and has its counter
tpar right here in Bismarck.
Further, the writer says
ct is considered by large merchants
profitable to expend three per cent of
4 their gross sales in advertising ANY
/ business man can afford to spend one
per cent and almost every business
i has leaks that amount to the one per
4 cent and can be stopped and this spent

merchant a mighty nice start toward
4 success.
PART OF DAILY BUSINESS
Make your ads part of your daily
! business. Personally, write one or
4 two ads. every morning of the week ex-
j cept Sundays and although I operate
:. four retail stores, Il consider it one

Arkansas new senator, JEFF Davis
whose term begins in March has de.
clared that the United States senate
needs a good shaking up" and he
announces his intention Of raising
row when be gets there. This an.
nouncenent comes as no surprise
from such a spectacular and trans
parent demagogue. It would be
surprising, however, il Davis should
attempt to carry out his threat, which
no one possessing ordinary intelli-
gence believes. Such talk is regard
ed as claptrap intended to tickle the
ears Of the groundlings.

TwouaN RATE FOR MISSISSIPPI.

The Mississippi railroad commits
sion has issued an order requiring
the railroads Of the state to adopt a
2-cent passenger rate on the inter
chsngeable mileage basis The or
der is TO become effective thirty days
hence and is made applicable TO all
roads. excepting the Gulf and Shin
Island, which claims charter e1emp.
ton from supervision Of passenger
rates, Several railroads already
have signified their willingness ia
adopt the rate without protest
The commission has also made an
Important modification as regards
cash fares, as appears from the re-
peal Of the following clause of the
circular issued Nov. 4, 1904: Rail
roads ars authorized TO collect !
cents per mile from passengers pay
ing fare to conductors, except in cas-.
es where no opportunity to purchase
tickets has been afforded by the road
For five miles or less, where the fare
is paid to the conductor, the charge
may be IS cents"
The repeal Of this provision puts
the cash fare passenger on the same
basis IS the person who has pur-
chased d ticket, and while there was
some opposition from the railroads,
il was not strong enough to forestall
the action.
Other matters relative to passen-
ger traffic and the handling Of bag
gage were discussed and several
notifications made, one of which
provides that the railroads shall
have baggage trucks provided at all
stations not specially exempted by
the commission.

IIE SIAIE'S uANDCR.

The significant comments Of the
Natchez Democrat on the result of
the Money trial al Greenwood, and
the special dispatch on which the
comments are founded, should make
lawmakers and law preservers Of
the State think. Much has already
been thought on these lines, and
much has been said and written,
but little has been done. OF the
merits of this particular case we OF
course know nothing. The dispatch
referred to appears TO place it in
the category Of those in which the
law is over ridden or set aside be-
cause Of influences controlled by
the offender. To this class it may
or may not belong. With that we
have nothing to do. The subject
which it calls to remembrance,
however, is the all-too-common fail
ure Of justice in this state when the
culprit is a white man possessing a
pull" That such failures and
miscarriages do occur is no secret to
anybody, and that they are a source
Of discredit 10 the State is equally
well known. Deserved OF not,
Mississippi has the reputation of
holding human life in slighter re-
gard than any other commonwealth
in the Union, and until there is an
amendment in our annual records
OF killings the progress of the
State and its settlement by desirable
immigrants and development by
business men cannot 90 on. The
Greenwood case may be a typical
one. That the verdict should have
been denounced on the streets, at
the club rooms, in the Church con-
gregations, around the fresides and
almost everywhere and by almost
everybody" would indicate it.
Whether it be or not, there have
been many that were, and those
miscarriages Of justice have consti-
tuted one of the heaviest burdens
borne by the State in ITS onward
progress. -vicksburg American.

AFTER the WILLOW DOG.

The Yellow Dog, a newspaper
published at Rnleville, on the Yszoo
Delta lfacetiously called yellow
Dog Railroad has the following to
say Of the train service Of that
branch OF the Y. 4 u. v.
Railroad wrecks have been both
frequent and deadly Of late on other
roads, but on the yellow Dog the lit
lie dinky cars cling to the two
streaks Of rust called the track as it
it were magnetized and there is no
chance Of a collision unless a terra
pin should run into the real end q
one Of the trains
The cars are fastened together
with twine and garters, pieces Of
shirts, and overalls, etc. torn from
the clothing Of the trainmen.
The two nominal carrying trains
called fast trains because people
nearly starye to death between sta
tons still come SO near to making
connections with the Southern at
MoCrhead that you can see the
smoke Of the Southern trains leave
the station.
THE lamps on the passenger trains
are about as bright as lightning bugs
in a fog and the cars themselves
were old in lS49 when the l. G.
bought them seoond-h hand from some
Eastern road.
There is nothing good about the
road but the employees and they de-
serve sympathy the same as the in
and maltreated patrons Of the
road do"

NOEL POPULAR EVERYWHERE.

During the past week our people
had the pleasure Of listening to two
OF the most brilliant candidates for
governor Of the state, and both gentle
men made fine and lasting impress
sions. Hon. Eff. Noel,a mar solid as a
rock in principles and character, was
the first to address our people and a
large crowd gave him attention. Mr..
Noel is no stranger to Columbus and
has a strong following here. -Colum-

We are not committed in any
manner, shape or form to either of
the candidates running for governor,
nor would we say anything to reflect
or detract from either if we could,
but from what we hear in our small
travels, unless we are woefully mis-
taken, Mr., Noel has good cause to be
cheerful. He is a man of splendid
character and his private and public
records will stand clear under the
test Of the searchlight. This much
is accorded him on all hands. He is
one of Mississippi's big men.-Stark-
vile News.
State candidates have been in EVIL
dence here somewhat this week, but
yet not quite so numerous as black
birds in blowing time. OF the six
candidates for governor we have had
three with us--Judge Truly on Mon
day, Hon. Earl Brewer on Tuesday
and Hon, E. +. Noel on Wednesday,
each Of whom made a fine speech and
added many friends to his couse.
We can say, however, without fear Of
successful contradiction, that the
race in this county at this time is be-
tween Noel and Truly, with the SEN
timent more in favor Of Noel, =
