funds sufficient to enable him to
serve his country in parliament with
out pay. The system worked against
representation of the poorer classes,
of course. A poor man could go to
the house OF commons only when his
friends provided the money for his
living in London. The people of
ireland being universally poor, they
were able to maintain representation
in parliament only under the most
burdensome conditions. Had it not
been for the annual contributions
from the United States. in fact, the
Irish members would have found it
impossible to stay at their posts.
The salary of $4,000 which has been
provided looks niggardly in COMPARE
son with the $4,000 a year received
by an American congressman; $500
in salary, and an average of $4,000
in mileage and stationery, but it will
enable the Irish members to stay on
their jobs, and will enable many a
poor Englishman to enter parlia-
ment.

that to him the most interesting thing

has devoted his life to a study of

erything else is an incident to the

WOMEN AND ADVERTISING.
Buyers Furnish Proof That Display Is
an Economy to the Consumer.

There was a time, remote in the his
tory of business, when producers and
sellers asked the question: Does adj
vertising pay? That was in the dark
ages of trade, and when we hear II
now it is invariably from some strange
survival, who. like certain primitive
organisms in the vast economy of ma
ture. has managed to fill in a small
business crevice passed over by more
progressive methods
Today it is another question: Does
advertising pay the consumer This
is sometimes confused by coupling il
with another question begging query:
Is IL not the consumer who in the
last resort pays for all advertising?
Certainly the consumer pays, but
women, the keenest of all buyers, sup
ply daily proof that it pays the con-
sumner to pay for it.
But the consumer does not pay for
all advertising; only for such adver-
Using as is thorough and efficient.
The man who half proclaims his wares.
or proclaims them by unsuitable
methods, must bear the certain loss
himself
In short, the consumer only pays for
that advertising which sells goods in
such quantities the advertising cost OF
which amounts to the merest trifle on
each purchase, and, indeed, in such
quantities the individual consumer
gets the article for less. because the
seller has an enormous turnover.
This is the point brought out by
Helen Marshaw Thompson in her ad-
dress on the subject at Boston. She
said that the greatest possible testi-
mony that advertising is all economy
to the consumer is the fact that n
great majority of the women purchas-
ers of the world favored advertised
goods.
What each individual woman spends
in the aggregate is a matter of do
nestle economy to be settled domes-
ticaIIy, but as to how she spends that
portion of her allowance which rep
resents needed purchases there is no
question that she is far keener than
the keenest man. Her finger is on the
pulse of the market as it varies from
district to district and from store to
store, always having regard to her set
standard of quality.
The fact that she is buyer OF adj
vertised goods proves that she thinks
IL paws her. But there is the final
and more obvious reason that adver-
Using paws the consumer-the fact
that il paws the advertiser, who can
only pay for it out of SATISFIED GUS

The Approach of Socialism.

When such conservative men as
Attorney General Wickershanl, George
w. Perkins and Judge Gary advocate
the regulation of prices by the gov
eminent, the apostles of socialism can
no longer be described as the teach
ers of an impossible doctrine.
Federal supervision of the great
corporations known as trusts must,
if carried to a logical sequence, end
in federal regulation of the prices
charged by these corporations for
their product.
This proposition was laid down by
the attorney general in his speech to
the Minnesota bar association a short
time ago, and his conclusions are ac-
cepted as logical by Gary and Per-
kins of the steel trust
That we must, before many years,
adopt at least some of the principles
of state socialism, seems inevitable.
The government now undertakes TO
say what the railroads shall charge
for their services, and it is idle to
expect that this policy will be aban-
doned 1t is but a step further for
the government TO regulate the prices
to be charged for factory products
which go into interstate commerce.
Capital for the great business of
the country cennot be obtained un-
less the multitude of people whose
savings provide this capital can be
assured of a reasonably certain re-
turn from their investments. 1t be-
gins to look as if the only way in
which safety for investors can be as
sured viii be found in the fixing of
prices by the government.
The coming of this form OF social
ism will be FASTENED, therefore, not
by the theoretical socialist, but by
the tens of thousands of people
whose savings provide the means for
doing business.

PHOENIX. ARIZONA, AUG. u. 1911
The Ohtuse Mr.. Flood.

Chairman Flood of the house COM
mittee on territories is quoted as
expressing surprise" that his state
hood resolution is not acceptable to
President Taft. He purports to have
understood, from his interview with
the president at the beginning of the
session, that the house resolution
embodied the views of Mr.. Taft.
Mr.. Flood is singularly obtuse
person. In the course of the debate
on his resolution in the house, fully
two months ago, both Delegate Cam
eron and Mr.. Mann of Illinois, the
republican leader of the house, warned
congress that the president would not
approve the Flood resolution. The
text of the resolution had been pub
lished, the president saw that it did
not embody his views, and the fact
was communicated to the republic
can side. The statements made by
Mr.. Cameron and Mr.. Mann were
disputed by Mr.. Flood, but why did
he not take the trouble to ascertain
for himself? The capitol and the
White House are but a mile apart,
and the White House doors are open
to congressman at all hours ot the
day. If Mr.. Flood had cared to
learn what the president thought of
the Flood resolution. a visit to the
White House would have enlightened
him. Even a telephone call probably
would have been sufficient.
But Mr.. Flood preferred to play
politics" and put the president in
a hole" And it is Arizona, it seems,
which has been put into a hole" by
these pretended friends of statehood.

A Model Complaint.

Within the last year or two the
open air has so grown in favor
Throughout the country that, in many
places elsewhere as well as here, the
problem of suppressing the nuisance
of night noises is pressing for solu-
ton. There are numerous nervous
residents of Phoenix whose nights
are made hideous by the squalling
ROSTERS and yapping dogs of their
neighbors. No doubt many of these
afflicted citizens yearn for reform
and yet are not clear as to the best
means of going about getting it. Mr.
Brand Whitlock, the famous mayor
|of Toledo, himself a night sufferer
from the raucous rooster, having
noted an editorial wall in the Chi
|cago Tribune for relief from the
might noises of the city farm, has
furnished to that paper letter from
Thomas Carlyle, which the Tribune
pronounces a model complaint:
Chelsea, IL November, 1852.
To G. Remington,
Cheyne row:
Dear Sir: 1t is with great reluc-
lance that / venture to trouble you in
any way; but kind of necessity
compels me. and l trust your good
nature will excuse it in a distressed
neighbor.
We have the misfortune to be peo-
pie of weak health in this house; bad
'sleepers in particular; and exceed
ingly sensible in the night hours to
disturbances from sound. On your
premises for some time past there is
"a cock, by no means loud or discord-
ant; whose Growing would of course
be Indifferent or insignificant to per-
sons of sound health and nerves; but,
alas, it often enough keeps us I'M
willingly awake here, and on the
whole gives a degree of annoyance
which, except to the unhealthy, is not
easily conceivable.
IL you would have the goodness to
remove that small animal or in any
way MIN liOHl
night to breakfast time, such charity
would work a notable relief to GER
tain persons here, and be thankfully
acknowledged by them as an act of
good neighborship.
With many apologies, and neigh
bourly respects, 1 remain, yours sim
cerely, T. CARLYLE.
We can agree with the Tribune that
the courteous style of the old Scotch
philosopher is good model, but how
about his departure from the truth in
his description of that baleful cock
whose Growing racked his nerves?
by no means loud or discordant"
will not describe the Phoenix rooster,
at any rate. For if there is anything
more nerve-racking and discordant
than the continuous squall of the
Phoenix rooster, it is the noise of
the yapping dog that. keeps the roost
