COL. BRYAN, DICTATOR.

Is IL the Democratic party, or is 1t
merely William Jennings Bryan? Why
does william Jennings Bryan under
take 10 pronounce popular Democrats
unfit 10 represent the party as It's
standard bearer in the campaign OF
1912 unless II be that he wants that
position for himself? True he has had
IL three times. and each time he has
led the party TO defeat. But for him
the results have been far from disas-
trous. So long as the party is out of
power. the man who has figured as its
presidential candidate receives de-
gree OF attention such as that which
in monarchial countries sometimes has
been accorded TO a contentious heir TO
the throne
But do Democrats like the bumpt-
Gus assumption of their ex-candidate
who has been three times rejected at
the polls? Where does he get his right
to blacklist men who are candidates
for nomination at the hands of the
Democratic party? He appeals to the
sentiment for regularity to enable
him to carry through his plans of pro-
scription. but where would he himself
have been If regularity had been
insisted upon in his case at times when
he was coquetting with the Populists?
Really, 1t does not seem as if Three
Times Candidate Bryan could keep out
now that preparations are beginning
for another nomination. He shifts the
air of battle like a war-horse, and
longs for the glorious field and the
blare of trumpet and clash Of steel and
excitement Of contest. There are going
to be disappointments in Democratic
circles concerning the outcome of the
approaching national convention.

knew about the steel industry. He sub
mitted a statement regarding steel
and told OF his career In the
business from the outset Yet he was
unable to supply many facts which the
committee desired. This is not sur

Carnegie for many years has left the

PACIFIC COAST VIEW.

Gov. Osborn of Michigan doesn't
introduce Senator La Toilette 10
Michigan meeting yesterday. and his
speech for the occasion is one OF the
most striking pieces Of rhetoric ever
drafted for such an event He was
not able 20 deliver the speech In the
presence of La Toilette for the rea-
son that La Toilette missed his train.
and there was an element Of fortuity
In that. II is not improbable that La
Toilette had advance knowledge as to
the governors intention.
Gov. Osborn spoke his mind and
that mind is opposed to the nomina-
ton OF Ia Toilette for the presidency.
Gov. Osborn does not sympathize with
the salvos of crying pessirnism with
which la Toilette always has made
his campaigns. He believes it injur-
ious to the neutrality-suspicious., not so
much TO business. but to the public
morals. There he hit the nail precise
ly. This newspaper has endeavored TO
point out the fact many times. La Fol-
lette leaves bad taste. He is lack
ing in the capacity to smile, to breathe
optimism, to give other men credit for
their good deeds and to play the game
with that fairness expected Of an Am
erican in public life. The governors
speech expressed the belief that La
Toilette was a valuable man i'm the
United States Senate and with that
statement we have considerable appro-
baton. There he has the opportunity
to exploit himself and his ideas where
they may have full discussion and the
curbing that they need from the less
radical men around him. The country
needs its La Follettes. 1t needs all
men of brains, no matter what their
views. Democracy is made up of many
men of many minds. IL will thrive,
however. no more happily on the pro-
vender fed to IL by radicals than on
the fodder OF ultra conservatives. The
president OF this nation, in our opin-
ion, should be neither a radical nor
an ultra conservative. He should, IL
possible. represent the middle ground,
since he is supposed to be the presi-
dent OF all the people and not Of a
faction. --Tacoma News.

In scoring the abuses OF the tariff
Governor Wilson il well within bounds.
An amount Of tariff which invites
manufacturers to combine rather than
20 compete is indefsnsible. But be-
cause some Industries have had more
protection than they needed, does not
prove that no industry ought TO have
any. The tariff should be subjected TO
q scrutiny severe and just. 1t should
be an expert scrutiny. As fast as facts
are developed to warrant reductions,
Congress should pass the bills and the
president should sign them. This might
not take tariff out OF politics, but II
would take politics out of the tariff
for the schedules would no longer be
made by the benefciaries Of the rates.
This Is what President Taft Is trying
10 do. and what he bids fair TO accom-
plish.

CatO'S
FOllOW-Up
System

If man lambasted you on the
eye and walked away and waited a
week before he repeated the perform
ance, he wouldn't hurt you very
badly. Between attacks you would
have an opportunity to recover from
the effect of the first blow.
But if he smashed you and kept
mauling, each impact of his fist
would find you less able to stand the
hammering, and a half-doZen jabs
would probably knock you down.
Now advertising is. after all,
matter of hitting the eye of the pub
lie. Ifyou allow too great an inter-
val to elapse between insertions of
copy the effect of the first advertise
ment will have worn away by the
time you hit again. You may con-
tinue your scattered talks over a
stretch of years but you will not de-
rive the same benefit that would re-
suit from a greater concentration.
In other words, by appearing in print
every day you arc able to, get the
benefit of the impI essiOn created the
day before, and as each piece of copy
makes its appearance the result of
your publicity on the readers mind
is more prOnOunCed--yOu mustn't
stop short of a knock down impress
sion.
PersistenCy is the foundation of
advertising success. Regularity of
insertion is just as important as
clever phrasing. The man who hangs
OF is the man who wins out. Cato
the Elder is an example to every
merchant who uses the newspapers
and should be an inspiration to every
stOrekeeper who does not. For twen-
ty years he arose daily in the Roman
senate and cried out for the destruc-
ton of Carthage. In the beginning
he found his COnferees very unres-
pOnsive. But he kept on every day,
month after month and year after
year, sinking into the minds of all
the necessity of destroying Carthage
until he set all the senate thinking
upon the subject and i'm the end
Rome sent an army across the Medi-
terranean and ended the reign of
the Hannibals and Hamilcars over
northern Africa. The persistent ut
terances of single man did it.
The history of every mercantile
success is parallel. The advertiser
who does not let a day slip by with
out having his say is bound to be
heard and have his influence felt.
Every insertion of copy brings
stronger returns, because it has the
benefit of what has been said before.
until the pubic's attention is like
an eye that has been so repeatedly
struck that the least touch of sug.
gestiOn will feel like a blow.
