Not a Luxury.

"Probably the one great fallacy
among business concerns regarding
advertising" says Batten's Wedge,
is that it is looked upon as luxury to
be INDUCED by ultra prosperous firms
rather than as a means of making
small concerns large and prosperous"
Advertising is never luxury unless a
dollars worth of it fails to yield more
than a hundred cents in net profit.
The successful merchants of Aberdeen
constantly apply this test to the use
of the columns of the HERALD, with
the result that they put HERALD adj
vertising in the necessity class.

The Park Scheme.

The evening paper takes exception
to the plan of the park board to
purchase the holdings of Mr.. Dabney,
on the hill, being called wild cat
scheme, and being classed as an at
tempt to foist on the city an unde-
sirable bunch of isolated lots-many
of them standing on edge-yet it
must stand as such or consent to be-
ing called foolish. The matter has re-
ceived it's quietus at the hands of the
city council and has passed in
to history, at the written request of
neearly 200 representative taxpay-
ers of the city, and can now be dis
cussed calmly.
The lots involved spread over
about 60 acres of land, containing
over 800 lots. but 1877 of which are
owned by Mr.. Dabney, and they are
scattered throughout the entire tract,
a few lots in almost every block. The
only lots in the proposed purchase
that lie in any sizeable punches are
along the river front, and stand on
edge. The plan looked we'll on pa
per, but when some councilmen went
on the ground, with the engineer,
and made personal examination of
the lots they were not long in con-
GLIDING that heal would be a silly
one for the city-however alluring
it may be for the real estate specu-
lator.
In the same paper, the park board
announces that unless this plan is
adhered to it will end their efforts
in the direction of park recommen-
dations. This is a matter for the
members to decide for themselves, al
though the announcement reveals
a total misconception of the duties
of the board. If the present board
entertained the idea that they were
to select park sites without the con-
sent of the council, and in opposition
to the wishes of those who pay for
them, the sooner they abandon 1t the
better. One of the members, who
is also councilman, admitted last
night when acting in the latter ca
pacity, that the Dabney lots were
useless without the intervening pro-
perty, and admitted the city was
totally without funds with which to
buy the latter, point that should
have been seen before the deal went
as far as it did.
The abandonment of this absurd
plan does not mean that the park
scheme Of the city will receive no
further attention, but will probably
result in making the most Of what
the city owns instead of seeking pur-
chases we are unable to pay for. The
city owns so acres of land on Char
ley creek, that may afford room for
the energies Of the park board, and
means of expanding the park fund
for several years to come.

mind than the fact that he is a large
investor in railroads-hOw large has

few men are very rich, but that few
men control dominating industries in

Mr.. Dabney Chagrined.

DESPITE the fact that ]. B. Dabney
has assumed to have been entirely IN
different about the sale of his hill iots
to the city, he was plainly dlsap-
nointed when the deal fell through
at the council meeting last night.
His chagrin was expressed in a let
ter he addressed to l.. l.. Maley thls
morning. Several years ago, Mr.. Ma
ley, with the consent of Mr.. Daoney'
erected large "Think of Me- sign
IN the lots. which has since given
it's name to the hill.
Mr.. Maley was one of the taxpay-
ers who saw the absurdity OF the
contemplated purchase of this prop
erty for park, and circulated
petition in his cigar store opposing
the scheme. This morning he re-
ceived a polite note from Mr. Dabney
requesting the immediate removal OF
tho sign from his premises, and
notifying him that in the event he
failed to do so, he would be cnarseo
rental Of $50 a month for each lot,
or part of lot touched by the sign.
Mr.. Dabney, and some other own
ers, have been posing as willing to
part with this property to the city at
nominal price, through public
spiritedness, yet their keeness to
close the deal with the city lends
color to the belief that anybody can
buy those lots today at the same
figure, or lower, taking their choice,
without having to buy the edgeWise
ones. If this deal was not a wild
cat realty play, the Herald never saw
one, and the sellers OF the park lots
were not the only interested parties.
