REFINED CRUELTY,
Nebraska City's Treatment of the
Peerless One.


st. Louis Times.
We make so bold as to charge Nebraska
with wanton cruelty in refusing to permit
w. j. Bryan to make a speech, when the
spirit intimated that 1t meant to move
him. IL he could round up an audience.
1t was in Nebraska City, Neb., that this
unnatural punishment was put upon him
who once was the boasted boy orator of
the Platte. rrfLe % ..
Mr.. Bryan wanted to speak on the
initiative and referendum but the county
commissioners having their headquarters
in Nebraska City would not let him have
their court house. Two of the three COM
missioners are democrats, but they do not
share Mr.. Bryans views on the initiative
and referendum. We do not gather that
the views had been expressed, but 1t is
plain that the county commissioners be-
lieved they were pretty good guessers.
The incident is not significant, except
that 1t puts an end to a contemptuous ar
gument which has become an institution in
America-namely, GO get a hall'-this
being slurring remark made to men who
try to force their views upon indifferent
people.
IT now appears that Mr. Bryan cannot
even get a hall, in every instance. And
this is the cruel situation, we repeat; for
Mr.. Bryan was made to talk. He has
never done anything else since he and the
Platte got on the map. He is a pretty"
talker and he ought to he permitted to
have his say. on the initiative and referen-
dunn or on any other subject lending itself
to resoundng perorauons
If Nebraska will not give Mr. Bryan
hall, what does that state expect the rest
of the country to do?

Cleveland Plain Dealer
The Union Pacific has decided to install

principal reason for this decision Is the
prevalence Of billiards and violent storms
in Nebraska and Colorado The telegraph
lines along the railroad line are not infre-
quently out of commission for days al
time, and traffic is badly tied up In con-
sequence The installation OF wireless
stations will obviate these difficulties aad

Talks for people who sell things

If YOU wanted to have thorough
understanding with a man you would
sit down with him and have quiet,
confidential talk, giving him reasons
for your statements-you would do
that. would you not, Mr. Merchant?
Apply the same rule to your adver-
Using, make it humanity reasonable
Talk in your advertising as you would
talk to an individual. Advertising is
talking, at long range, to individuals
who cannot be seen personally. If
you attempt to talk over their heads
or talk down to them they will not
listen.
Advertising, to be successful, must
be broad enough to take in everybody;
YOU cannot successfully advertise along
class lines if for no other reason than
that conditions change too swiftly.
Take a broad human view of the
needs of the average family and adver-
tise to their intelligence; tell them Of
the quality of your goods, the tone of
your store, your methods and your
prices. Put your own personality
back of your advertising and the peo-
pie will respond-never doubt it,
Mr.. Merchant, The Bee is read by
1000 families every day. At the
cost of $12 a week you can reach an
audience OF over 10000 intelligent
people who need your goods.
