The Telegraph and Electric Roads.

The Telegraph and Electric Roads.
In this country telegraph engineers
are in many places encountering seri-
Gus difficulties in the operation of
their circuits by the encroachments of
electric traction systems. AS the en-
ployment of high potential alternating
current for electric traction purposes
expands, as it is doing very rapidly
throughout all parts of the United
States, 1t is obvious that telegraph en-
gineers will have to face numerous
problems from harmful induction and
conduction effects from this cause. 1t
is, in fact, not easy to foretell what
the ultimate effect of these high po-
tential alternating current circuits
upon the telegraph service will be-
In the event of the general electrifi-
cation of steam railroads it is prob
able that it will in many cases be-
come necessary to remove the tele-
graph poles from the vicinity of the
railway tracks and seek rights of way
Indeed, this action has already been
removed to safe distance therefrom.

ROAD TO SUCCESS
PUBLICITY IS THE MAIL-oRDER
MANS GREAT WEAPON.
MERCHANTS MUST ADVERTISE
Eight Fire with Fire" and the Dol
lars Now Going cityward Will
Stay in the Home Community.

: The merchant who would wage sue
cessful warfare against mail-order
competition should study mail-order
methods. The same tactics that takes
the dollar out of the community will
keep it at home.
And what are mail-order methods?
The keynote of 1t all may be found
in the one word-publicity. The mail
order house advertises. 1t does not
advertise better goods at less money
than the home merchant gives, but it
advertises persistently. 1t puts its
proposition before the public constant
ly. 1t recognizes no dull season in its
campaign for publicity. 1t never lets
up.
At a gathering in Iowa some time
ago a mail-order man explained some
of the system followed in the CAM
paign of publicity. According to this
explanation the mail-order house seeks
the line of least resistance in it's
search for business. Whenever they
can find a town in which the mer-
chants are not active advertisers they
flood that community with their liter
ature. When they find a town in
which the furniture dealer, for exam
pie, is afraid to use printers ink they
pay particular attention to the subject
of furniture. They are searching for
the weakest link in the chain of home
defenses.
Something of this is explained by
the conditions the writer saw in 8
mill town in northern Wisconsin. The
local paper carried practically no loca,
advertising when the size of the town
was considered, and the stores of the
town were but small affairs. In talk
ing to one of the merchants he com
planned that more than $4,000 wa;

Applied TheolouY.

Little Willie Trundy, of Searsport,
Me-, stood at the window one day,
watching his grandfather NOV a piece
of grass near the house. After watch
ing him a few minutes, he turned to
his grandmother and asked if God was
everywhere.
yes" said she, God is everywhere"
rs He here in this room?"
yes"
Willie ~pondered a moment, then
"Is He out in the field where granny
isl"
Eyes, Willie, He is everywhere"
Quick as a flash came the response:

sent from that community to the Chi
a mailorder houses each month,
That is easily twice the amount that
is spent in all the stores in this town
put together each month" he explain
ed. Merchandising don't pay in such
a place as this"
A few hours later the writer was
talking with the publisher of the local
paper, and the conversation turned to
local advertising, or rather the lack
of it.
Il was very much tempted to accept
a proposition which l received from
one of the Chicago mail-order houses
a few days ago." said the publisher.
Il still have the proposition here on
my desk. They offer me a cash con-
tract at my regular display rates for
1900 inches, to be used during the
year, and in addition to the cash adj
vertising they offer me a small COM
mission on all the new business Sc
cured in this county during the life
of the contract. They say their bust
ness in this county during the last IL
months was approximately $4,000 per
month. and / would secure a small
percentage on all business done over
this amount during the next IL
months"
Have you shown that proposition
to the merchants Of this town." |
asked.
II have, and it didn't move them"
he replied. "They simply say it don't
pay to advertise. l would jump at
the offer If 1t we're not for the fact
that | cannot bring myself to the point
of doing that which | know will help
to kill this community" =.
There was an illustration of mail
order methods. The wide-awake mail
order man proposed to reap a golden
harvest from the field the very-much-
asleep local merchant would not cul-
tivate.
Does it pay to advertise?
The more than $500, 000, 900 that finds
its way to the Chicago mail-order
houses each year is garnered by a
campaign Of advertising. You, Mr..
Local Merchant, claim, and rightly,
that you can sell the same goods for
the same, or less money, than the
mail-order houses offer, but at the
same time you complain because the
mail-order man gets the business.
Why do trey get tt? Because they
advertise.
They not only advertise. but they
advertise in your field, and they nd
vertise n your field because you d.

Using pay.
We want the people to trade at
home; We want them to build up b
home community; We want to see the
dollars kept in circulation here that
one and all of the local people may
prosper. We do not want to see the
fortunes of the city mail-order nan
built at the expense of the local com
munity, but we know absolutely the
value of publicity, and we know the
mail-order houses will capture the dol
lars If the local merchants will not
fight fire with fire; will not show the
public what they can buy and at what
price.
Let us go back to this northern
Wisconsin town and see what oppor-
tunities the merchants there were sac
rificing. 1t wal a mill town, and in
no way an agricultural community.
There were not 20 farms within a ra-
dius of as many miles. The industry
was lumber, and the money to run the
mills came from the city. The nearly
1000 employees were paid in city
money, and with a little effort on the
part of the merchants in that town
this money might have been kept in
the town. 1t might have been made
to build a permanent prosperity. But
no., the merchants left a wide field for
the mail-order houses which they i'm
proved, and the money that might
have built a town that would have
stood after the lumber interests are
gone and the mills are closed has been
allowed to return to the city from
which it came, and now every lofty
pine that falls but drives another nail
in the coffin of the town, and all be-
cause the merchants did not believe it
would pay to advertise.
