together-the advertising agent
 My life game Is advertising I play lt for fun, to get rid of constantly inc creasing gain that comes in from other sources. Unlike every other advertiser, I have nothing to sell, Inever had auythiug to sell, and Istarted in to ad- ver,lse i,, and I've been advertising 1t right along,
 The most sensible thing Is cOnsIs- teucy, Be consistent, just as l am con. sisteut. advertise to my readers iD the morning to buy this or that, and at night I advertise to sell. But 1t isn't my stock adyersIse my readers to buy. It's the publ.o's. I've got to keep right with the public, so when I say "buy'' I say next "sen" so YOU see my cOnsi.- teDcy consists in my sticking to my inconsistency You all know that's so.
 For thirty-eIght years Pve been ad- vertising nothing and sticking to it. Ia those thirty-eight years l have spent between and six and eight million dol lars advertising. It cost me $3s5,OOO jn a very few days work in one batch Of advertising.

Excellent progress is being made on the railrosd spur to the mines, and the graders are following hard on the heels of the righ. of way gang which is carv- ing out pathway through the virgin forest, says the Whhehorse Star.
 Fifteen men under Curly Mcintosh are clearing the right of way, and be, hiud them is the steam stump palIer 'tha, keeps the atmosphere in its local. ity full of slumps. In fact, 1t is said tbat the machine will stump a track 80 feet wide and a mile long in day,
 Following the stumpiug machine is the grading gang with eight or ten teams engaged in blowing and scrapiug and puttiog the roadbed in condition for the laying of ties for the rails.
 The work will continue just as long as the gcol weather holds out, and as yet there are no signs of a change. The present conditions are very favorable to outside work, as now lbrre are no d,es or mosQu JOS to bother the men.
 The spur will be completed to the  mines early in the spring, and ore ship ping will then be carried ou ln a big scale,

A Vancouver paper, in speaking of the trail which the police are carrying out from Peace river to Dawson, says that next year another 400 miles will be completed, bringing the trail as far as Atlin from which place, the Van couver paper says there is good trail on to Dawson, via the telegraph line, Why, chipmonk would require to have it's tail connected with the tele- graph line with trolley to follow that trail.

100 MUCH TALKIAG

Those gentlemen who have gone from Nome and other Northern points to se- attle on their way to Juneau as dele gates to,the Republican convention are working overtime in the newspapers in Seattle telling what they will and what they will not do to Governor HOggaN at the coming convention. This is fool hardy. What they should do is to keep their own counsel, and when the time comes to act to be in a position to catch the Governor uuawares. The idea that some people have of going hunting for deer accompanied by brass band has never resulted in game bagging. The first lesson iu politics is to learn to keep ones mouth shut, at least part of the time.

LAWSON ON ADVERTISING

Declaring that advertising twas his chief aim and game in life, Thomas ", Lawson, of Boston, addressed mem bers of the Sphinx club at the Waldorf Astoria in New York last week, He declared that he had been adver- ver,ising for thirty-sight years and,had spent between S6,OOO,OOO.and iS,OOO,OCO in that way since he began, He said in part;
 Let me say at the outset that hund. reds Of millions of dollars are wasted annually because advertisers don't un- stand advertising as they would if ad' ver,ising were taught in the schools and colleges. It'is possible to save to the people millions of dollars yearly simply by means of iudicious adver- Using aud at the same time allow the advertiser to do the same amount Of business. Advertising is something more than a profession. I, isan art. It's a broad and far reaching profession.

WHIPPING THE PRESS

The Canadian Pacific Telegraph com pany, says a Winnipeg special to the New York Times, has declared boy, co.t against the Winnipeg dailies and refused to deliver them any news spe- cials except at full commercial rates.
 There is a notice in the operating room iustructiug operators to refuse all messages addressed to these dailies. The company has a virtual monopoly in western Canada. The trouble arose over a combination of western daiIies to form a press association, with a rep resentative to send snd receive all news. The telegraph company real ized that by ,hls means they would be transmitting but one message, which would be used in the same cities by two or three papers
 The compauy's first action was Co re fuse matter addressed or sent by the association. Then matters went along quietly until R. L, Borden, a Conssrva- tive leader in Canada, spoke in vancou yer, and the Free Press received the message for three Winnipeg dailies. The company then presented it's ulti- matum, stating that unless the papers signed an agreement not to distribute news the service would be refused. The daIics declined, and the telegraph company has completed it's boycott, and for the last few days practically all western Canada news published there has been received by mail or clipped from country exchanges
 The Daily News, which has been call ing attention to the defects ID the tele. graph service has oeenretused all tele- graphic matter upon refusal to sign au agreement not to discuss the working Of the company in the iuture.-Ameri- can Press.
 This attempt will fail as it certainly should. There is no Telegraph or Steamship company that can dictate 10 the newspapers what they should CT should not publish, that is, provided, of course, the editor has any backbone, For time, to be sure, she publishers may be embarrassed, but, in the end, the companies will gracefully come to their knitting.
