The application Of the story should
be helpful to advertisers.
II is difficult TO make an impression
with irregular advertisements. The
people must be CONSTANTLY RE-
MINDED.
There are exceptions to this rule. OF
course, but the exceptions apply only
to special events-like a circus com
ing to town or a fight OF bird men.
A lasting impression can be made
only by STEADY ADVERTISING.
The name OF the frm-its business

slant repetition-would be easily re-

taking any chances of emitting. in any
advertisement, any one of the three.

NO REAL NEED FOR ALARM
Circumstances Such That important
Tariff Changes Are Not Probable
In the Immediate Future.

The house of representatives has
been debating the so-called farmers
free list" bill with many speeches but
few to listen to them. Day after day
there has been copious oratory and
day by day the attendance of mem.
bers has been remarkably small
This is not all Indifference. 1t is not
wholly a state of mind which makes
appeals to reason useless. 1t has not
happened because the house is weary
of the tasks which it has undertaken.
The trouble is largely that few men
in congress believe the bill which the
house is sure to pass will get through
the senate and past the presidents
veto.
There may be some tariff legisla.
ton along similar lines, but the house
bill as it stands will not become a law,
if such progress is to be made in re-.
vision of the tariff. The Republican
party still believes that there is need,
first of all, of careful and scientific in.
vestigation of the conditions of pro-
duction in this country and in Europe
1t still believes in the wisdom of such
work as the tariff commission has
been doing. Sweeping and radical
changes in duties will not be made
without expert investigation and a
fair trial of the commission plan
while the Republican party controls
half or more than half of the govern
ment of the United States.
The country understands this fairly
well. 1t will realize the truth better
before long. Then there will be less
hesitation in business and trade and
industry will be more active

DEATH IS MYSTERIOUS.
Theories to Account for Accident
to Lawrence Bright Suggestion
of Foul Play.

While the Gazette has no desire to
revive the histories Of mysterious
deaths which have occurred in Alex
andria during the past few years, it |
may be stated that some people are not
satisfied with the assumption that Law
renee Bright, whose body was found
yesterday morning under the rladuct
over Mushpot road, came to his death
by an accident.
The finding of the body OF Blight with
his head in 4 pool CT blood, his legs
crossed, and his derby hat upon his
breast, proved an enigma to the coro-
ner's jury. Several theories have been
advanced in attempts to explain how
Bright came to his death. The most
generally received is that he attempt
ed to board freight train and, miss
ing his footing, fell through the trestle
to the road. Others believe in walking
on the trestle the unfortunate man
fell through the timbers 1t is hard 10
suppose Bright would have been the
victim OF such an accident, rs the
track is planked and he having been
aware OF this fact, would have been on
the lookout. He may have attempted
to board q train and been hurled from
the viaduct. Some, however have sug-
gested that Bright could have been the
victim OF foul play from the fact
that he was lying rs in re-
pose. There was no blood on
the trestle, as there would have been
had he been struck by 4 train. The
finding OF mutilatsd remains OF
George Curtin in the river and later the
body OF Walter Schultz, in the snow on
the enyirons OF Alexandria are still
fresh in the minds OF all. and the cir
cumstances in connection with the
death OF Bright are equally mysterious.
It is stated that the last time the
man was seen alive was Monday night
at about twelve O'Clock, when he was
seen leaving saloon in the extreme
northern section OF the city accom-
panied by two unknown men. It Is
also declared that the men were going
in The direction OF Mushpot road It
is also said that Bright vas not dead at
four O'Clock Yesterday morning il being
asserted that lie knocked al the door
OF Mrs. krouse in Del Ray. about that
hour. Upon Mrs. krouse demanding
