IT'S THE FACE NOT ONLY WAGES.

We may not all agree with the
thought expressed in the following edi-
torial from the Philadelphia Times on
the present much-discussed social evil,
but whether we do or do not we must
admit it expresses a phase of the prob
! lem we dare not overlook, that il di-
reefs attention to a point where we
may well halt and ponder while For
after all:
It's the pace we set rather than the
wages we pay that send people TO the
| devil causes the bank clerk to steal,
the business man to embeZzle, the fool
ish woman-married or single-to go
the limit in order to get taste of
high life"
The low wage plays its part, and no
girl or man should be paid less than
living wage but to blame all of the
social evil to low wages and to infer
that prostitutes are recruited largely,
if not wholly, from the class of work
ing girls, is libel on the working
classes and is not reaching any solu-
ton of the social evil
All nations have lived in vain and all
history has been written in vain if we
have not learned that the poorer the
nation the more virtuous it is, and
that only after nation becomes rich
and luxurious does it begin to indulge
in those vices that sap its energies
and destroy its manhood and woman
| hood.
| And in our wild rush for money and
pleasure and pleasure and money, our
scramble for social position, for the
puppetry of caste, for the grinding on
the one hand and the grasping on the
other, we want to remember that we
are among those who are setting the
pace, marking the road for the life
that kills, each in his own way adding
little to the problems of the day. We
want to remember that we only live
this life once, that it is the best life

SOCIAL JUSTICE, At AUBURN

Al n II NNs
The world has very little use for
person who does not practice what he
breaches. Last summer and fall
George w. Perkins was one of the
main hgures of the newly-born Pro-
gressive party that persuaded a lot of
people in Washington and some in one
or two other states that it was the
only peoples" party, possessed of de.
termination and ability to cure all the
ills man is heir to. Just how far that
philosophy struck into the heart of
this same Perkins is aptly set forth in
the following editorial in the New
York World:
Having had trouble with some of its
employees at Auburn, N. Y, the Inter-
national Harvester Company has
adopted drastic means of making this
country better place for George w.
Perkins children. Announcement is
made that the factory will be disman-
tied and the machinery shipped to Ger
many
This is one way of administering
social JUSTICE" yet we doubt if this
was precisely the kind of social justice
that Mr.. Perkins financed during the
recent campaign, or that Mr.. Roose-
welt represented in that campaign
Certainly it is not the kind of social
justice that will help the Harvester
Trusts case in the court of public
opinion.
Perhaps the Auburn strikers are
misguided. They may have been led
astray by unworthy leaders. But this

THE LOCAL PAPER.

Several times lately TIE WASHING
TON STANDARD has called attention to
the inactivity of the local merchants
in failing to develop the territory open
ed to them through the parcel post
mentioning incidentally the advertis
ing that is being done more and more
In the local papers by the business
houses of the larger cities. Just to
illustrate that we believe our point is
well taken We quote the following eu
itorial on THE Local ,aper" from a
recent issue of the New West coast
Trade of Sponane:
1t is to be regretted that in many
towns the business men seem TO be
unaware of the encroachment the big
mail order houses are making on the
trade that should belong to the local
merchants. The mail order houses
realize that the best advertising med
inm is the local newspapers and are
buying space in them wherever they
can.
There are two essentials necessary
~ 0uCCcSS Ill ulOuc1U DuSlHcSS. lISt,
to have the goods at reasonable prices;
and, second to let the public know 1t.
Many dealers are inclined to consider
advertising an expense, whereas, the
mail order houses consider it an invest
ment from which they derive big divi-
dends, and they further realize that
without advertising they would soon
cease to exist.
The advantage in the use of adver
Using is greatly in favor of the home
merchant, inasmuch as he should know
his trade better, and as the money he
expends for advertising rarely leaves
the community and the merchant
again receives a considerable portion
OF 1t directly or indirectly.
Mr.. Merchant If you withhold
advertising from your local editor,
could you blame him for accepting mail
order house advertising? And yet it is
true that nine out of every ten country
newspapers who have been offered mail
order house advertising, have turned
1t down. And when he turns down this
foreign advertising are you repaying
him In kind when you send job of
printing away to some big city? Are
s yOO AAOt guilty VI tuc SAINT ldulC uO-
ing this that you complain of in your
customers? It is not only up to YOU
to back up your local newspaper, but
It II to your interest to do so.
When the shoe pinches q little diff
ferent viewpoint is frequently prod
uced. The general view among pub.
fishers today is that the local news
paper Is just now coming in.o its own
with the advent Of the parcel post; .Aar
the preponderance of advertising for
merly carried by the magazines will be
supplanted by advertising campaigns
In the newspapers in each community
and that the national advertiser will
seek to obtain his business through
local advertising and not through
national.
His viewpoint should be the view
point of the local merchants and the
fAct tina. the national manufacturer OF
distributor is seeking an outlet
through the columns of the local news
paper should be the strongest argu
ment for the judicious and const ami
use of that local newspaper by the mer
chant whose business is done directly
In the community the newspaper
serves.
