Senator Bourne is one man who can
come back He can affiliate with any
old party and thrive. All the same. he
is a one-term senator If he had been
up for senator this year he would have
stood no more show than a SNOWFALL in
hades In 1912 he will have dropped
much farther down in the estimation
of the voters, both Republican and
Democratic, in Oregon. If he wanted
to, Governor West could not bring
about the reelection of Bourne. The
direct primary will be his cemetery.
He will not get as far as Statement
No. 1.
Bourne may not spend much in the
next senatorial campaign, but he will
have a friend who will West did not
blow in much, according to his state
ment, but a manager dropped $500
and West booster club expended
$3354 A candidate is permitted to
spend only a certain percentage. but
the corrupt practices act allows others
to crawl over the fence. A candidate
without liberal friends is somewhat at
a disadvantage. In one respect the cor
rupt practices act is a fraud.

If the indoor carnival to be given by
the boys of Company ii. December
1917, does not attract the greatest
crowd of visitors seen In Dallas In
many year. it will not be the fault
of Captain Walter Tooze, Jr,, who has
charge of the advertising. As a public
iy promoter, Captain Tooze can put
several over on the talented gentle
men who juggle the superlatives for
the three-ring circus the Wild West
shows, or the Summer amusement
parks Indeed, II is not improbable
that the militia boys show will COM
blne the attractive features of all these
enterprises. Manager Ger
linger, of the local railroad, has kind
ly consented to run special tcains
from Falls city and Black Rock dur
ing the carnival, and a record-brcak
ing crowd is expected for both days.

AUTHORITY ON ADVERTISING.

In his recent address before the Ore
gon Development League in Salem,
Howard Elliott spoke enthusiastically
tinuous and well-planned advertising
Among other things, the great rail-
way president said:
"The earlier forms of advertising had
to do with the creation of markets and
sales for specific commodities in gem
eral use. Even in Pompeii the dead
walls still show a crude form of dis
play advertising, calling attention of
the passerby to the arguments of the
vendor, and very recent discoveries
prove that this form of publicity was
used for political advertising in ward
elections!
"The essential purpose of an adver-
tisement, to obtain attention, create
an interest and promote a desire to
follow suggestion, although in a prim-
itive way, was evident in this ancient
advertising. In the earlier business
history in this country, commercial ad-
vertising had not freed itself entirely
from the crudites of Pompeii The ad-
vertising of today is different and is
applied to the creation of markets for
new and previously unthoughtof goods.
1t follows the course pioneered by Jay
Cooke when he first undertook the sale
of government bonds, which he placed
through a publicity campaign, and is
becoming in this present day recogs
nized method of placing securities.
"Hardly a commercial business is
without some assistance from adver-
tising. 1t helps to secure travel for
railways; to sell lands; to people new
country; to influence public opinion on
great national questions and is even a
great party weapon in our national
political campaigns. With more scien-
tific knowledge of business forces. has
come a more intelligent, accurate and
thorough understanding and applica-
tion of the principles of advertising,
publicity and promotion. Advertising
in itself is founded upon only limited
number of basic principles, and has no
established rules or technique, recog-
nized by all advertising men in com
mon, except as their experience
teaches them the value of certain rules
found to be desirable. These, how
ever, are broad in their application,
and the manner in which they are APP
piled depends almost wholly upon the
knowledge of humanity judgment and
discretion in the mind of the individ-
ual who applies 1t to his purposes and
upon the amount of money that can
be used.
''The past quarter century in the
United States has witnessed the high
est development advertising has re-
ceived in any country"

Good for Congressman Hawleyi His
first act when Congress convened yes
terday was TO introduce a bill for the
relief OF the early settlers of the SiletE
country. II will be remembered that
CONGRESSMAN Hawiey's bill was pass
ed hy the house and senate al the last
session. only to be vetoed by Presl-
dent Taft after Congress had ad-
journed. Being thoroughiy familiar
with local conditions. and realizing
that the failure TO enact q law fer the
protection Of these early settlers would
subject 70 serious injustice many poor
men who settled on these lands in
good faith. Congressman Hawiey T. not
willing to see them deprived OF their
rights and win renew his Efforts IN
their behalf. oregon Senators have al
80 showed their friendship for these
and II Is hoped that the
new bm viii be passed and that the
President may be led TO see that q
would be but a simple act of justice to
permit the measure 20 become q laU.
