The only honorable and honest
way to stop a newspaper, if you do
not care to take it longer, is to step
into the Office Cor send by maiD and
pay up all arrearages, get a receipt
and have your name taken off the

publisher marked refused when
you owe six months or year or two,
and never go near the office is not
only disreputable, but superatively
dishonest as we'll.

ADVERTISING TALKS.
WRITTEN BY WILLIAM c. FREEMAN.

The year 1910 was very good
advertising year. Newspapers
throughout the country made
satisfactory increases in the
amount OF advertising printed,
and some of them made marvel
Gus increases.
1t is worthy of note that the
newspapers that stand well in
their communities, even though
they have small circulations,
have shown marked BUSINESS
INCREASE and a hearty sup
port from the trustworthy ad-
vertisers.
All of this is a very healthy
sign.
Merchants who continue to
ADVERTISE STEADILY hold
their own under adverse business
conditions, and they prosper to a
greater degree when business is
good-whereas the merchant who
does not ADVERTISE REGU-
LARLY gets hit hard when busi-
ness is not good, and he gets hit
proportionately hard when busi-
ness is good.
THE STEADY ADVER-
TISER HAS THE BEST OF
1T ALL OF THE TIME.
Newspapers that have pros
pered in 1910 will try to get out
BETTER newspapers in 1911.
They will be more careful than
ever about the kind of news and
advertisements they print.
Advertisers who have pros
pered will exercise GREATER
CARE in the preparation of copy
will be more determined than

1t is of interest that while the military
experts appeared before the committee
loaded with all sorts of detailed data
concerning the proposed fortitication
plans that they were questioned largely
with reference to the international angle
OF the canal fortiiication proposition.
Concerning this phase of the subject the
members OF the fortifcation board were

to do with the details of the canal de-
fenSe. and Representative Tawney, of

ever to MAKE GOOD TO THE
PUBLIC.
Prosperity helps along the
cause of HONEST ADVER-
TISING. Adversity, which is a
cash need, sometimes makes both
publishers and advertisers waver.
Let us hope, those of US who
are united in an effort to make
advertising and newspapers
WHOLESOME and RELIA-
BILE, that prosperity will con-
tinue, because we do not want to
be tempted.
A farmer. in blowing a new
ground which was full of stumps
and rocks, forgot that he was
religious man and used some very
bad language. Very contrite at
the end of the days work, he
knelt in prayer beside stone
wall and implored forgiveness for
his Sins. saying that he had slnned
so dreadfullv it would be just
punishment if the stones COM
posing the stone wall should fall
on him.
After he had done this for
three or four days, some mis-
chievous boys discovered what
the farmer was doing, so the next
time he prayed for forgiveness
as we'll as for punishment the
boys tumbled some stones down
on him, whereupon he said:
"Oh, Lord, | DID NOT
MEAN THAT LITERALLY"
In the year 1911 we hope there
will be no stunps and rocks to
jolt US, so that we will, even tenn
porarily, forget our duty to the
public-by printing CLEAN,
RELIABLE advertisements, and
plenty of them.

full effect at the proper time in the
rancorous debate that is expected over
the reciprocity measure. Certain Sena-
tors whose relations with the White
House might not call for every con-
sideration in that quarter may be looked
for to voice their objections to the Nc
Call bill In lengthy and bitter terms.
Should the tariff board be continued
with an appropriation also. it is figured
that just so much more time will be
left in which to deal with reciprocity
recalctrants.

Gratis, who will be in control of the

passage of the reciprocity bill il he we're

These Senators have argued that the
Democrats would Immediately start on
a general tariff revision of their own.
President Taft has met these argu-
ments with the statement that he has
already received assurances from Demo-
Gratis that they would stand by the
reciprocity agreement in the event OF a
special session being called. The iden-
tity Of the Democrats who have given
these assurances has not been disclosed.

For the present. however. Mr.. Taft's
best efforts will be devoted to obtaining
action on the reciprocity agreement in
the present session Of Congress. He
leaves to-day on trip to Illinois to
deliver one or two important reciprocity
speeches.

SEVERAL IDEAS ADVANCED
FOR LINCOLN MEMORIAL
Capital of Fitting Tribute to Great Emanci-
patOr, Which Is to Cost 100000.

Ideas are being advanced for one of
the greatest memorials of the world in
Washington. AS stated yesterday in The
Washington Herald, Congress has finally
acted upon "A bill to install a commission
to determine upon a location. plan. and
design for monument or memorial to
Abraham Lincoln, thus insurinE speedy
fruition of lonG-delayed project.
Somewhere within the limits of the
National Capital is to be installed a
building, a shaft, monument, series

mark of recognition of the martyred

ir his native country but throughout the
world. Exclusive of the site. the memo

Call, Senator fernando D. Money, and
Representative Champ Clark. will meet
in Washington to thrash over old plans
as we'll as new suggestions.
Architects Will Compete.
1t is assumed that having determined
the nature OF the memorial, the commits
sion will invite competition among the
architects and Sculptors Of the country
which it is expected will produce an ac-
ceptable design for the institution which
is to be erected, and which Is to go down
to posterity as a beautiful and lasting
recognition of the services Of the great
Lincoln to his country.
Many suggestions have been put for
ward heretofore as to the form the Lin
coin memorial should assume. as well as
its location. A national highway con-
Meeting Washington with the national
park at Gettysburg attained some favor
as a memorial idea two years ago. Sena-
tor Cullom, Speaker Cannon and others
who knew Lincoln. advanced the idea,
however, that an institution erected to
his memory should be located where
it might be readily reached and con-
stantly viewed by the masses. whom
Lincoln knew and loved. On this same
theory the plan to erect a monument
or u great building on the outer edge
of Washington. and close to the Poto-
mac, fell into disfavor. A scheme for
q memorial bridge across the Potomac
and joining the District with Virginia
was also broached and discarded.

Congress two years $50. the location
