comparative plainness or elegance
that wouid be becoming in democ-
racy. So ne people desire that these
embassies be the most ornate and
elegant of courts competing with the
aristocratic pretensions of the Euro
pean monarchies. But saner mo-
tion is neld by some that our en-
bassies should IN their architecture
notattemDt to vie with monarchy but
rather show plain and solid outlines
However, a still better opinion has
been expressed and that is that the
whole scheme OF embassies be abon-
doned, ministers, ambassadors and
all AS orr consuls transact all neces-
sary business there is nothing for
an ambassador to do but to entertain,
spend his money on fuss and feathers
to hobob with the nabobs and initiate
those customs and habits which are
chief in the degeneracy of men and
the decay Of nations. What benefit Is
that to 'he American people or to
human society? Why should the peo-
pie of this country pay Whitelaw
Reid a salary of s17,5OO per annum
to spend 100000 in lavishly enter
tanning hing Edward and other po-
tentates Of intrenched privilege when
our own institutions are presumed TO
be founded on the eternal ro,k OF
equality and justice? We vote to
abolish the ambassadors and then no
embassies Will be needed.

500 HAS PREMATURE
FOURTH OF JULY

There were some lively doings
among the freight handlers at the
500 railroad freight warehouse last
T iday that made Ed Smith and his
helpers think that the Fourth of
July had got here ahead of time.
While in the act of unloading freight
from a car for transfer to Grand
Rapids large box containing all
manner of fire works began explod-
ing as the box was lowered to
the platform. The noise and smoke
was at first subdued but as the
larger pieces took fire it was plain
to be seen by the handlers that a
good sized demonstration was in
evitable and with an effort the
box containing the combustibles was
showed from the platform to the
ground where an instant later the
crack of the fire cracker made the
hiss Of the sky rocket and the
crack of the fire cracker made the
iveliest scene ever witnessed around
the depot. The noise and disturb
ance was heard a block away. The
whole business was a total wreck
and if Grand Rapids Is short on fire
works this Fourth they will please
take notice that they went up in
smoke here with no intention on the
part Of our people to rob them of
their patriotic thunder. The acct
dent was no doubt due to dynamite
being used in the manufacture which
exploded from a jar while the box
was being handled -Marshfield News

"WORKING" THE PRESS

Everybody is trying to get some
thing for nothing out of the news
paper publishers.
The country editors mail is load
ed down with offers of merchandise
in exchange for advertising space.
The authors of these propositions
are in many cases reputable adver-
tising agents.
Others are well established firms
that seek by promises of future
business on a cash basis to secure
publicity at absolutely no cost to
themselves. Still others are the
founders of new concerns who de
sire to build up a successful trade
on the generosity or gullibi-ity OF
the newspaper publishers.
The proper way to treat all these
trade, or part trade and part cash,
propositions is to decline them in a
polite but positive letter The men
who send them out are, to use a
familiar expression, fishing for
suckers" If you nibble at the bait
you are certain to get hooked.
Every line of advertising matter
should be paid for at regular rates.
This, of course, does not apply to
the complimentary notices of regu-
lar patrons which are inserted once
Or twice year.
The newspaper publisher is not in
business for his health, declares the
Fourth Estate. If publicity is worth
anything to the man who seeks it,
it is worth paying for. and the
editor who fails to collect what is
due him will never get on in the
world.
