Some people think that the principal func-
ton of newspaper is to roost the "other fel-
low" Few who have served the press in an
editorial or reporting capacity but have been
solicited to roast some one for fancied or
real injury The people who solicit these favors
think that the editor should be pleased at an
opportunity such as they offer. Suggest to
them that they sign their name to the article
and they will hold up their hands horror-strick-
en-. No, that would never do! Theirs name
must not appear. But for the editor to put his
name to it, that of course is perfectly proper.
Human nature is a peculiar thing and few
places are better calculated to bring one in con-
tact with it's many phases than the newspaper

community large enough to.support one
or more local papers but which does not do so
Is deficient in public spirit and therefore not
abreast of the TIRES. The reason for this is
obvious to all. The local paper is the best
medium for transmitting local news, for
nouncing forthcoming events and for promot-
ing the material and social interests of the
place in which it is published.
These facts are oftimes overlooked and the
paper instead of being commended and sup
ported for the good it does is criticised for def
ciencies which the editor is anxious to remedy
and which proper support would help him to
remedy.
Now paper to live and be the paper it
ought it ought to be- needs primarily the fnan-
cial as we'll as the moral support of the COM
munty. This must come mainly from two
two sources-subscriptions and advertisements.
Subscription alone not sufficient to put
and keep paper on paying basis, especially
in these days of unusually high prices for all
kinds of printers supplies. It's continuance
tn erefere largely depends upon the patronage
&C corded it by business men. The lack of such
patronage is one chief reason why so many
papers go under and the editors depart, sadder
and poorer, men, to more. promising fields:
When paper thus dies and when it is too late
the community awakens to a sense of it's loss
One great mistake which results badly all
arou nd is the idea which prevails among some
blu sness that in grudgingly.and sparingly
placing ad they are doing an act of charity.
N othing is further fl ON the truth Of course a
publisher needs the ads and so does the mer-
Oh ant need customers. With both it is matter
of business, of "for value received" and ynot of
charity.
The shortsi ghtedness of such merchants is
the more apparent when their action is con-
trasted with that of the great mail order houses
with which every country merchant has to COM
p1ete. Each one of these concerns spendsDthou-
sands of dollars each year. and it is done be-
ause it pays and not charity. If it is object
ed that these are big concerns an can afford it
it is sufficient to say that liberal advertising is
one main reason for their bigness. Given3 aver
age business ability with liberal and attractive
ad verti sing in which the quality and lines OF
goods are brought to the notice of the public
and su cess is for both the merchant and
the edit or, and the welfare of the community is
advanced.-Clinton Advocate. s- -a ..esv#

A serious flaw has been found in the bust
practices of John D. Rockefellow. He
built up the Standard Oil Co., but now the
ruthless hand of the investigator has shown to
the world the enormous profits of anywhere
from 100 to 1000 per cent on the capital stock.
This stock has presumably not been watered
and the extortionate profits stand asia damning

There is question in connections 'with
railroad regulation that is as yet entirely un-
settled, that u.s. the division of controls between
the federal and state governments. It is impos-
sible for all of this work to be done by the states
and undesirable that all of it should be under
taken by the federal government. On the other
hand it is confusing for the two authorities to
overlap, and there will be clashes between the
state and federal authorities until the division
of authority is carefully defined. But it would
appear that ultimately much work would
have to be given to the federal commission as
to entirely overload that body, In this connec-
ton, Commission Staples makes suggestion
that appears to have merit-that the state board
