The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1907-05-26
by a Richmond Newspaper.

Below is reproduced identically as II
appeared last year the classified adver-
tisement column of the Palladium. AS
can readily be seen the head amount
ed to more than the advertisements
did These classified advertisements
appeared on May 26, 1906, just year
ago today. On this same page are
the classified advertisements for today.
Compare those of this day last year
with those for today. Last year
there were only twelve classified adj
vertisements altogether. Today there
ere 204 classified advertisements, an
Increase over May Goth. last year OF 1872
classified advertisements. The number
of classified advertisements carried on
this day a year ago would not occupy
more space than a quarter of a col
umn. The classified advertisements
CARED today, as you can plainly see, &C.
cupy more than five columns.
The great increase in classified adj
vertising illustrates very plainly the
fact that classified advertising in
creases in ratio with the increase in
circulation. A year ago the old Pal
1adium with less than two thousand
subscribers carried only twelve CLASH
fled advertisements. Today the Pal
ladium and Sun-Telegram with a cir
culation of over $500 carries 2O4
classified advertisements During this
year, since the Goth of May last, the
circulation of the paper has increased
about three and one-half times, and
the classified advertisements have in
creased over IL times. OF course,
from this it can be seen that the CLASH
fled advertising has increased proper
tionately greater than the circulation.
This, however, is easily explained. the
people of Richmond and vicinity are be-
coming educated to the great POSSIBLE
ties in classified advertising. They
are recognizing its two great advan-
tages-the great number of people who
read classified advertisements and the
very small cost of inserting such adj
vertisements.
Classified advertisement readers
may almost be said to form a class of
people by themselves. They are people
who have in the past inserted CLASH
fled advertisements and have formed
the habit of looking IN those columns
regularly. Then again there are
people who in the past have picked up
some good bargains from the adver-

tisements in the classified columns
and. remembering their past experience
es. keep steady track of the classified
advertisements and look for other bar
gains. There are still other people who
read the classified columns as a matter
of news. And as matter OF fact,
classified advertisements. as well as
display advertisements are real news.
Display advertisements tell the news
of the stores and classified advertise
ments tell a great deal of news about
the people and their needs.
By their increasing use of classified
advertisements the people of Richmond
and vicinity are simply going through
what the people of every other pro-
gressive community in the country
have gone through Pick up any good
newspaper from an outside city and it
will contain from one to ten pages of
classified advertising, according to the
size of the city in which the paper is
published For instance, the Indian
apolis newspapers carry from four to
six pages daily of classified advertise
ments, showing how highly the people
of Indianapolis have been educated to
look upon classified advertisements.
1t is safe to say that before the end of
the present year the people of Rich
mond will have been educated in the
use of classified advertisements. to
such an extent that the Palladium and
Sun-Telegram will carry not less than
a page of classified columns daily.
In looking at the classified columns
of a year ago, reproduced below, it
will be noticed that we declared that
Palladium classified advertisements
would bring results. To verify the
truth of that statement just glance at
the greatly increased columns Of CLASH
fled advertisements carried today.
That shows what the people of Rich
mond and vicinity think of Palladium
and Sun-Telegram classified adver-
tisements. If anything possesses mer-
it, it becomes popular and the great
number of classified advertisements
carried by this paper, proves that it is
popular with classified advertisement
users. For further proof of this fact
we have only to mention the undisput-
ed fact that the Palladium and Sum-
Telegram carries from two to three
times as many classified advertise
ments as any other newspaper pub
lished in Richmond or Eastern Indi-
ana.

UNDATED RESERVATIONS.

The undated-resignation scheme Is
contrary to the spirit Of the Organic
Act OF this Territory. Since Govern
or Carter devised the policy, Congress
has been IN session for two different
periods and was once urged by the
President to amend the Organic Act
to give the Executive authority to
suspend or remove. But Congress
has not thus far been convinced OF
the necessity of mailing a change.
A law which would force the Gov
CrnOr to throw his plan overheard Is
not, under the circumstances, n vio-
lation of what many citizens OF the
United States consider sound princi-
pie and good sense. The Bulletin be-
heyes that an executive officer who
extends an appointment with one
hand and holds out the other for an
undated resignation. offers an insult
as well as oyerrides the spirit of the
law.
There should, however, be no law
which will prevent the head OF n de-
partment or any other officer from
dispensing with the services Of minor
employees as seems to him best.

when the great earthquake and re-

ago wrought such havoc In san Fran
cisco, the stricken people turned with
empty hands TO the fire insurance
companies for relief, confidently ex-
pecting that in their hour of need the
protection for which they had been
patiently paying through the pros
porous years would be promptly
forthcoming But, alas! disappoint-
metn followed disasterl Ths compa-
mics in many cases were unequal to

of putting It. but that Is the way 1t
appeals to the common herd, and
that is, after all, the element with
which IL il necessary to deal.
The Bulletin is willing to admit
that the Christian Science scheme is
al right. If II works. But the Scien-
lists themselves admit that person
has to increase his faith in order to
obtain the best results. and the de-
cree of good result rests largely with
the percentage of well-developed
faith. All this must take time with
average humanity.
Are not the Scientists asking much
more than their share when they
come before a people and demand
that the hoi-polloi OF this world as
well as those schooled In the faith
shall subscribe TO the doctrine OF
Christian Sciences sway over all the
ills of earth, les power to check cpl.
denies, and STAY sin?
The Bulletin Is free to state its
conviction that they are.
The scientists wish to be exemp,
from the medical law, but they have
not yet reached the point where they
can guarantee that no sinner, no IA
kir. no triple-brass-plated bunco'
steerer will pose before the commu.
nifty as a Christian Scientist, and
claim the same exemption.
We believe that the victory over
sin should be more complete and the
developed before the enthusiastic
developed before the uneducatei
Christian Scientists are entitled tC

of experience have led the majority
to believe are laws framed for the
welfare and protection of humanity

markable growth. Hawaii can al
least afford to wait another two years
