There is no other kind of adj

many elements of producing
profit as the daily newspaper,
for it reaches and is read by
every member of the family.
1.-THE daily newspaper ad. is
always fresh. 1t never has a

Through the daily newspa-

where your goods are on sale.
You therefor get 100 per cent

"It gets CLOSER TO THE

of publicity. You believe in the

1.-THE daily newspaper is

WASHINGTON, d. c., April II. 1911.
Dear Dad: The selection OF Sena-
tor Thomas 8. Martin Of Virginia, as
leader OF the Democratic minority in
the senate is the only false note in
the harmonious overture which opens
the Democratic program. Martin is
reactionary. He voted Is times with
Aldrich on the PayneAldrich tariff,
and voted contrary TO his party's
amendment.
The consoling feature of Martins
selection is the fact that he Will not
lead the minority. That leadership
is to be q mere empty honor. The
real leadership Of the senate will be
in the hands of committee consist
ing of Owen, Culberson, Gore and
couple OF representatives OF the new
er senators. The Bailey Democrats
will flock by themselves, and the pro-
gressive Democrats will vote with the
progressive Republicans when the
time comes.
Seventeen thousand letters have
