they had grown to figures running into
strings of six. the members of Presi
dent Taft's postal commission sitting
In the federal building. We're astonished
when William Rosenbaum, president
Of a mail-order clothing house, ap
peared before them and said that his
concern had spent 100000 annually in
postage.
Rosenbaum said that his company
mailed 100000 packages of fourth
class matter alone. His idea in appear.
ing before the commission was to en-
phasize the wonderful volume of mail
| that grew out of magazine advertise
| ments, which were, he argued. produc'
tive of so much profit that the govern
ment could readily afford to carry them
for nothing. THE company" he con-
tinued, received more than $6,OOO,OO0
In postal orders alone from buyers
throughout the country.
II parcels post were established,
the mail-order man sold, the major por-
ton of the 100000 packages now for
warded by express would go by mail.
Nothing, he concluded, SO stimulated
mail expenditure as did the magazine
Advertising.
In response to question by the
third assistant postmaster general,
Mr.. Britt, the merchant admitted that,
should the second-class rates be in
creased, the publisher would add the
Increase, as the witness phrased it. ito
We poor advertisers" The figures he
/ presented were verified by representa-.
tives Of the postoffice department.
Edward Darlington of the Butterick
Publishing company followed the mail
order man. He submitted figures based
upon the answers received from adver-
tisements, in an effort to prove that
the magazines were the best medium
for advertising. Their advertising was
national in scope, he argued, and. like
the preceding speaker, he insisted that
1t stimulated postage increase.
This claim was based on the num-
Der Of reply letters and then the Gus
tomary follow-up mail sent and re-
ceived as result of magazine adver-
Using, as well as the sending Of re-
quested catalogs, and finally the ship
ment of merchandise az third and
fourth-class matter.

Washington, Aug. 30.-There will be
organized and systematic opposition
to the denomination of President Taft
BY those Republicans who call them
selves "progressives."
This was made certain by the open
Ing of headquarters here to represent
the progressive faction. These head
quarters are to be national in charac.
ter and their close association with the
candidacy of Senator La Toilette, OF
Wisconsin, for the presidential nomi-
nation, is said to be forcibly indicated
by the placing in charge of the head
quarters of conspicuous worker IN
the fields of endeavor on behalf of the
Wisconsin man-former secretary of
state of Wisconsin, Walter !. Houser.
The headquarters of the progressives
we're opened here in the Evans build
Ing, q central location almost fronting
the White House. 1t is claimed that
the progressives who are out OF har.
mony with the administration of Presi.

pense of conducting these headquarters

It is regarded as significant that the

That there is to be vigorous cam.

who note the developments of the day

Millicent NJ. Clark was born March

parted this life Aug. n, 1911, at 4
Springs, Iowa, after an illness of about
A months
Miss Clark lived with her parents at
DEBORAH, Waukon, St. Paul and Post
vile, moving to Lime Springs in 1879.
She was person of very strong in
tellect and never diverted from her con-
victions of right when two pathways
appeared before her. Her convictions
of what was right were her only guide.
She was loving and affectionate
daughter and sister, kind and consid-
crate friend. To know her was to
love her, and no eulogy is necessary,
for her friends we'll know the measure
of her greatness.
