LITTLE TIPS ON PUBLICITY

1t is folly to advertise to a man un-
til you know him.
If you are advertising to donkeyA,
do not make fun of long ears.
Few theories will work when tried
on the man who invents them.
Some men imagine that they are adj
vertising when they buy space and
fill it in with words.
Any one knows how to advertise II
he has judgment enough to hire the
right one to do it for him.
If you have a dollar to spend for
advertising you can afford to spend
90 cents OF it on your education.
If ever you reach the point in bust
ness where you do not have to adver-
tise, somebody else will own the bush
ness.-Ad Club Doings.

to drop it while placing it on the

misfortune.

Transforming the right hand side of The dardens into an arena, a place ol circus business on d medium sized scale, was task that engaged moi only the attention, but the physical aid of Mister Joachim F. Richards He would prefer ;0 be called by that name, so nobody would know him.
 But Rick, who has not done a task stouter than to pack Variegated canes about, or hurl thoughts through q typewriter onto white paper, actually tucked up his sleeves and pitched in,

whelminely in favor of good roads legislation This is election year, and the members of Congress from rural districts fully realize that no single measure would cndear them to their constituents to quite the same extent as an appropriation from the FedeTa- al treasury to help in the building of good roads
 This is the comment of George C. Diehl, chairman of the National Good Roads Board of the American Au- tomobile Association, which is an ac- tive factor throughout the country in highways progress. Continuing MT Diehl says:
 Out of the wilderness of good roads bills, the confusing array Of statistics. the torrent of good roads oratory Gntended primarily for home consumption). certain basic features
Arizona republican., 1914-05-27

have been evolved which will un- doubtedly be incorporated in the leg islation to be enacted this year
 The first essential feature is that the Federal government shall deal with no political unit smaller than the state.
 It may be accepted as equally certain that no Federal aid plan will receive the stamp of Congressional approval unless it provides some measure of self-help on the part of the State.
 If the Federal government should attempt to pay the entire cost of construction or maintenance as it might undertake, it would be con- lronted with the problem of select ing from 2,000,000 miles of unim- proved roads such small percentage as could be constructed or maintain.

 Thus showing a reduction between these points as follows

 Lest it might be said that l have selected these points because of the showing made, the same substantial results will be shown if one takes any points in this state, on different lines of railroads and compares the rates before and after the order of the commission.
 As a result of the reduction of the class rates in Arizona. the carriers were compelled to re-adjust their rates from Pacific Coast points to 1 points in Arizona, to conform to the new conditions. The merchants at | Globe thus received the benefit of the following reductions in the rate from | Los Angeles to Globe:
 Reduction cents per 100 lbs.-Class | 1, Sc; class ?, 12c; class 3, 16c; class 4, 15c; class 5, 7c; class A, lie; class | B, 21c; class c, 26 1-2c; class D, 23 | Pc; class E, 22c.
 i In the face of this showing. is
 there a fair minded member of the i Graham County Traffic Association
 who is willing to again asert that the class rates prescribed by this | commission afforded them no relief? 1 I do not claim that the rates in Arizona are in all respects just, fair
 or equitable. Far from it. There are many inequities and We are en-
 deavoring to rectify them as fast as
 possible. But it is a big undertaking
 and requires time As fast as com
 plaints are received concerning rates,
 we try to adjust them. The Graham
 & Gila County Traffic Association, in their article, calls attention to the rates on Hay and Grain in Graham
 and Gila counties This is the first time the attention of the commission has been called to this rate and I am today instructing the rate department to look into the matter. Had our attention been called to this matter, it might have been adjusted long ago.

GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVE
IN DAWSON SEARCHING CITY
AND COUNTY RECORDS.

Your Uncle Sam is an inquisitive
fellow. He is strong on statistics,
and there is never any telling into
what or when he is going to poke his
nose to find out something.
One of his latest undertakings in
searching for information is to find
out the wealth and liabilities of the
United States by civil divisions. 1t is
intended, working through the Blu
reau of the Census, to ascertain the
assessed value of all property in
states, counties, cities and towns, in
debtedness of every description, rates
of taxation and for what the money
is spent-how much for education,
courts, roads, jails, aims houses and
other institutions supported by pub
lie funds.
Mr.. Gordon L. Singleton is now in
Dawson collecting this information
as to Terrell county and the towns in
it. He is now at work at the court
house, searching records of every de-
scription, and. when he secures desir-
ed data relating to the county he will
turn his attention to Dawson and the
other towns in the county. He will
be engaged here all of four months.
Mr.. Singleton is a native of this Sec
ton, having been reared at Bluffton,
and until appointed to his present po-
sition was private secretary to Con-
gresham Crisp.
This statistical information is be-
ing gathered in all parts of the coun-
try, and besides showing the wealth
and indebtedness of the nation will
also show the percentage of its true
value at which property is returned
for taxation.

den in the Third district, and charg-
ed Mr.. Bridges with having fish
trap in Chickasawhatchee creek con-
trary to the provisions of the game
law.
Mr.. Bridges is one of the coun-
tvs best known citizens and largest
farmers, and there was much inter
est in the preliminary trial, which
was attended by large number of
people.
Lawyers represented both the de-
tense and the prosecution, and the
case will be strenuously fought
through the courts.

RUFUS jones HERE FROM MISSISSIPPI
Former Popular Dawson Boy in the
City on Visit and to Be at the
Bedside of His Sister.

Mr.. Rufus Jones, secretary of the
Progressive Club of Clarksdale, Miss,
and president of the Mississippi Com
mercial Secretaries League, is in
Dawson, having reached here Sunday
night to be at the bedside of his sis
ter. Miss Florice Jones, who is i'll at
her home on Stonewall street.
Rufus was born and reared in Daw-
son and even until now is known by
practically every man, woman and
child here. His career for the past
few years, since he left the home of
his nativity, has been watched with
genuine interest by the town as a
whole. and Dawson is proud to claim
him as her son. No young man. who
has ever left here has left behind him
more true and genuine friends and
no Dawsonian has ever had higher
standing socially as to personal in
tegrity. He was busy yesterday sl1ak-
ing hands with his scores of friends
among IuG DuSluSSS 1l1ClA vi Il1O "" II
but found time to drop into The News
office for few minutes and tell what
a great town Clarksdale, Miss, is
and also to congratulate Dawson on
its newly formed commercial organi-
cation. Several of the directors OF
the Chamber of Commerce, as soon
as they discovered Rufus was in
town, consulted with him regarding
the affairs of the body, as he is gen
orally recognized as an expert in this
profession. 1t is probable that before
he leaves Dawson he will be asked to
address the directors.
This city will always be glad to see
Rufus Jones on visits as often as he
can come, and The News lin common
with every one else, wishes he could
see his way clear to making this his
home again.
