DENIES BEING TERRORIzED.

Inknne Patients.

l. N. Anderson, who has been en-
ployed by the Government Hospital for
the Insane for forty years, denied that
escaped patients are terrorizing residents
of AnaCOstia at the regular monthly
meeting of the AnacOstia Citizens Asso-
citation last night. He said:
The asylum is two miles away. There
is no truth about the people of Anacos-
tia being bothered with escaping GRIM
inals from the asylum. as stated so often
in the newspapers"

| Two bills, one embodying the terms OF
! the trade agreement negotiated with Can
ada by President Taft, and the other
proposing a transfer to the free list of the
tariff law of 100 or more articles. among
| them a number classified as .'necessaries
Of life" were introduced in the House
yesterday by Representative Underwood.
| chairman of the Democratic Committee
| on Ways and Means. The Democrats
thus began their work of revising the
| tariff.
The Canadian agreement will be re-
ported to the House tomorrow. II will
be passed early next week Immediately
following action on the pact, the House
will proceed to the consideration of the
Underwood bill. which provides for re-
vision. as the Democrats put it, IN the
interests of the farmer and the ultimate
consumer
Throw Doors Open.
The Underwood BILL carrying out the
provisions of the Canadian agreement, is
in all essentials patterned after the Nc
Call bill, which failed in the last Con-
gress. 1t contains one new provision,
which. however. does not affect the
agreement itself. This is a request of
the President that h" negotiate trade
agreements with the Dominion of Canada
wherein mutual concessions are made
looking toward freer trade relations and
further reciprocal expansion of trade and
commerce"
Chief interest is Centered in the bill pre-
pared by the DemoCrats.iadmittine duty
free about hundred articles used by the
ultimate consumer and the farmer
The farmer has entered emphatic objec-
ton to the Canadian agreement on the
ground that the instrument made the
market in which he sells free one, while
compelling him to buy in a protected
market
The Farmers bill" so called, pro-
poses a partial revision of the tariff
that the Democrats believe will make a
hit with the country. 1t admits duty
free many of the leading foodstuffs and
such articles of common use. as lumber.
With this latter provision taken in con-
neCtion with the concessions on Cana
dian lumber granted in the Taft agree
ment, Democrats say the lumber trust
will have to take TO the woods. Timber
and lumber is placed on the free list by
the Underwood bill as a means of CIV
ing an inlet to lumber from Mexico
There are large tracts OF pine in that
country which can he brought here. 1t
is alleged. at comparatively fair prices
under duty-free provision.
VIII Attack Wool Next.
The Democratic leaders say that the
bills offered yesterday will he followed
by attacks on the cotton and wooden
schedules
Some OF the prominent articles included
in the farmers free list were imported
last year in amounts inconsiderable in
value on account of the duty. so that II
will be difficult TO forecast the extent of
impOrtatiOns when the duty is removed.
The fact which is expected to appeal
to the farmer is that he will have the
markets of the world to butt in. and not
he restricted TO the market made by
the American manufacturer.

lication. 1t should avoid any,
thing and everything that might
mislead the public in agreeing to
Lpatronize it.
Do advertisers always carefully
consider? Or are they impelled
by a motive to GET THE
CROWD if they can, no matter
how they get it?
In smaller communities, where
everybody knows everybody,
there is very little likelihood of
the public being deceived by adj
vertising. The merchant there
knows he NJ U ST MAKE
GOOD. He knows if he does
not he will not do any business.
In larger communities, where
there are great throngs of peo-
ple-transient and resident-the
advertising faker thinks he can
escape the consequences of mis-
representation, and he does
sometimes for a long period-but
in the end he gets his deserts, as
he always does.
The INCREASING FAITH
in advertising is being brought
about because the majority of
advertisers big majority, too
live up to their agreements.
The good merchants should
unite with good newspapers in
driving out the frauds in every
community.

ADVERTISING TALKS.
WRITTEN BY WILLIAM c. FREEMAN

THE PURPOSE OF AD-
VERTISING is to enter into all
agreement between the adver-
tiser and the public on a basis that
will be mutually agreeable and
profitable.
If advertising is actuated by
any other purpose, it will fall
short of accomplishment.
1t is obvious that the advertiser
wants to sell his merchandise; it
should be obvious to him that he
must sell it RIGHT if he is to
get CONTINUED PATRON
AGE from the public.
All of us know of advertising
successes that had their founda-
ton in fraud and continued
fraudulent throughout their whole
careers, but THEY DID NOT
LAST, did they?
The agreement entered into by
the advertiser and the public
must be AS BINDING as any
legal document that's soundly
drawn.
1t should be a COMPACT
between the two that means that
each is to give a SQUARE
DEAL to the other. There won't
be any trouble about the public
always giving a square deal if the
advertiser will give it square
deal.
The advertising put out by
firm should be carefully consid-
