Newspapers as Political
Advertising Mediums.

The Baltimore News calls atten-
ton to the enormous waste of ad
vertising at the Democratic con-
vention held in that city. 1t spoke
o, the mass of circulars, buttons,
advertising novelties and things of
that character that Uttered the
floor each day at the conclusion of
the session. 1t pointed out that
this waste of advertising matter
could have been avoided by the in
telligent use of the advertising
columns of the daily newspapers.
1t spoke of the tremendous effect
q page of advertising appearing
each day of the convention in be-
half of any of the candidates
would have had upon the delegates
assembled.
1t is gratifying to those of us
engaged in the newspaper business
to know that there has recently
been a distinct movement among
politicians and candidates for
Office toward the use of newspa-
per advertising columns in present
ing the claims of the various can.
didates for office. In some Sec
tions of the country pages of
advertising of this kind have been
printed in the newspapers daring
municipal and State campaigns.
The effect of this advertising has
been exceedingly gratifying to the
campaign managers who have
tried it, because they have been
able to place before the very men
they desire to reach the arguments
in behalf of their candidates that
they are most anxious to present
Although during the last two
months a great deal of news mat
ter has been printed in the newsps'
pers concerning the candidates fol-
the nomination for presidency or
both tickets, the most of it has
been of general character. HaC
the advertising columns of the
newspapers been used in an intelli
gent way by any one of the candl
dates his chances, either at Chica
90 or at Baltimore, for landing thu
coveted prize would have been in
finitely better than under tn,
methods that have been in use TO
so many years.
The advertising managers of tn
newspapers should be alert to tn
opportunity which the comm!
presidential campaign will Civ
them for securing advertiser:
from the several national commit
tees. The money that was form
erly spent in torchlight process
sions, in barbecues and in man.
other ways will now be devoted t
the more modern methods of eX
: ploitation. A campaign that ha
= been carefully prepared by eXpe
rienced advertising men will go
4 long way toward electing any car
didate for the presidency.
The people are more intelliger
and better educated than the
were twenty-five years ago. The
are no longer influenced by spec
tacular displays of enthusiasm {
by political picnics. What the
now want are the facts and the a
guments showing why their vol
should be given to any candidaI
before the people.
The best way to reach the pull
lie is through the columns of tt
daily and weekly newspapers, an
money spent on many of the oth'
N mediums is almost certain to /
y wasted. Editor and Publisher.

The New Fish and Game Law.

The new nSn ana game law was
enacted through the efforts of those
who would protect the fish and
game of the State from extinction.
Were there long continuation of
the wholesale slaughter of game,
and the dynamiting and seining of
fish, one source of the food supply
vof the State would soon be cut off
entirely. The purpose of this law
is not to turn Kentucky into vast
game preserve for those who have
the time and leisure to hunt and
fish, but to encourage the increase
of birds and game of every kind
and of fish in every stream in Ken
lucky. Discussing the new law,
the Louisville Post brings out these
facts in the following editorial:
THE NEW GAME LAW.
The law regulating the condi-
tons under which men may hunt
in Kentucky went into effect the
list of July, 1912. 1t requires ev-
cry hunter to have a license. 1t
attaches a penalty of $50 for the
3 transfer of this license. The APP
plicant pays 81 and the license au-
thorizes him to hunt anywhere in
the State, but only with the writ
ten permission of the owners Of
the land on which he hunts.
All resident land owners and
members of their families may hunt
upon their own land without a Ii
cense. Tenants and members of
their families may hunt upon their
leasehold without a license. Any
one hunting without license will
be fined not less than $50 nor more
than 5000, to which may be added
, imprisonment in the county Jail.
The one purpose of this act, the
one excuse for the restraints it i'm
poses, is that, as game and fish are
valuable food products, the pro-
duction of game and fish should be
encouraged by legislation.
One conception of the act is that
it is intended to turn the whole
State into large game preserve
for privileged class. When that
! is the case the law will fail. The
desire is to encourage the increase
of birds of all kinds and character,
and of game of every kind and OF
fish in all of our streams.
Under the new law a game and
fish commission is established which
is to have charge of the propaga-
ton of such game birds, game an
finals, fish, and song and insectiv-
erous birds, and animals, as they
Shall deem to be of public service.
This purpose of the law is toe
often overlooked. 1t is one that
should receive careful attention.
We should add in this manner to
our food supply, and plans should
be adopted and supported, having
this purpose in view.
County Clerk Keller Greene has
advised us that he now has the
necessary licenses on hand, anc
those who desire same can secure
them at his Office.
