REFUSES TO EXPORT POTASH.
Efforts of United States Reported to
Have Failed.

Washington. April 2.-Eforts OF
the United States government to OBJ
tain concessions from Germany which
would permit the importation of Ger
man potash fertilizer failed today. 1t
became known here, when American
officials were advised that Germany
would make no alteration Of her en-
barge. Negotiations had been in
progress since the outbreak of the
European war.
The German refusal came at a
time when American officials belieV-
ed the way had been cleared for a
restoration of at least part of the
potash traffic between Germany and
the United States.
The reason for the refusal has not
been disclosed.
Officials would not discuss the mat
ter. 1t was known, however. that al
ter conferences between American
officials and the foreign offices in Ber-
lin and London an arrangement had
been tentatively reached which 1t
was believed would allow American
farmers and cotton growers to OBJ
tain some part of the shipments
usually brought from Germany.
The potash industry in Germany
is a government controlled monopoly
under the Kalisyndikate, which ar
bitrarily fixes prices.
When the war began three steam
ers laden with potash, which had
been paid for by American Importers
we're held up. After many confer
ences the company agreed to allow
them to proceed or to furnish SIM
liar amount of potash, provided an
agent of the United States should be
designated as consignee to prevent
the fertilizer from falling into the
allies hands, or employed to raise
crops to be consumed by the fighting
forces of Germany's enemies. 1t was
agreed that the department of COM
merce should name a consignee from
its staff. and on that basis negotla-
tions with Great Britain to prevent
interference with shipments by the
allied fleets were said to have been
reaching a favorable stage.
1t was understood State depart
mept officials were hopeful that fur
ther advices from Berlin would open
the way for a renewal of negotia-
tions.

A Man Who Died"

Once upon a time there lived "a
man who wondered what his neigh
bors thought of him. In order to
find out he framed up deal with his
wife and pretended to die.
The undertaken was taken into
the secret and he laid the body out
in a coffin and opened the lid in or
der that neighbors might take fare
we'll look at the late lamented.
Scores came to sit in the parlor
and talk in low tones about the de-
ceased. Some talked in low tones
about politics and the crop prospect.
Meanwhile the dead man listen.
ed with both ears.
A thin, hatchet-faced old maid
who loved gossip as a hog loves the
other kind of slop, and who had for
wears peddled SANDER about the man
who lay in coffin, wiped away an
imaginary tear and simpered to the
wife: Il can sympathiZe with you in
this sad hour, dear sister. The dear
departed was such a sweet man and
so kind and so good. l know your
burden is heavy
And a hard-looking customer with
bristling, close-cropped grey halr-a
man who had fought and cussed and
hated the chap in the coffin for al
most half a century. cleared his
throat and rumbled: Yes, indeed
We shall all miss him. He was very
dear to me. and | appreciate your
feelings
Then the preacher placed his i'm
ger tips together and looked at the
ceiling. The preacher had often re-
ferred to the coffin's occupant as
poor lost soul" and black sheep.
He believed and almost hoped that
the departed was in hades, but 1t was
his business to comfort. and he said:
"Sister, there is One who cares for
his soul. Let not your heart be
troubled, for your husband is with
Him
Then the man in the coffin kicked
off the lid and sat up with a loud
snort:
Il don't mind being dead, said
he, "and III go to hell if have to,
but I won't lie here and listen to a
pack of hypocrites holding lying
contest
The moral, of course, is that tell
ing good lies about the dead is no
more commendable than telling mean
lies about the living-and also, as

Riding Newspapers.
tiOnS.

The attention which a number Of
the county papers in this, State are
devoting to the matter of protecting
their columns against imposition
from persons or institutions seeking
free advertising is abundantly war
ranted. Efforts in this direction de-
serve the sympathy and support OF
the public. The mass of the readers
of a newspaper have very little idea
how it is bedeviled to give up its
space to boosting free Of charge all
sorts of movements and enterprises,
Many of these undertakings are. of
course, highly commendable in them
selves. But the newspaper which
permits itself to be dragooned into
giving them. without compensation,
Just such publicity as their promo
ters think they are entitled to re-
ceive can do so only at a sacrlhce
which must in one way or another
prove costly to the public as we'll as
to itself.
The strength of any newspaper,
it's value to the community, is meas
ured by it's independence. 1t cannot
be independent unless it is able to
pay its way as it goes, unless 1t IS
run on business principles. 1t is not
being run on business principles If
either it's news or its advertising
columns are being encroachsd upon
bv outside interests, however legltl-
mate these outside interests may be
and however worthy the purposes
sought to be attained. There is no
more obligation upon newspaper
TO surrender it's space unguardedly
to business organizations, charitable
enterprises, religious or educational
institutions. or public officials than
there is an obligation upon it to print
without charge. the fact that certain
houses are for sale or rent or that
certain new goods have arrived and
are on sale at certain stores. II II
does this it is bound in a majority OF
cases to cripple itself sooner or later
in the discharge of its proper func-
tions.
Of course. every reputable news
| paper is glad to lend its support III
aid of every hopeful movement IN
its community as far as it is able
But in every community there are
many such movements and those who
start them have no right to expect
that the newspaper will allow then
TO claim as much of its space as the!
see fit. This is a matter which the
newspaper must determine for itself
and it should reach its conclusion
not only in the light of its own judg
ment as to the merits of each par
ticular proposition, but also on the
basis of its resources as known tt
itself and Of its duty to its subscrlb
ers to print the news. Only thus. a:

can it avoid becoming itself a mendi

Advertise or Quit Business.

If you can't advertise, quit your

YOUR time on it" declared Andrew

The purpose OF advertising is to
create selling atmosphere, said
Mr.. Fox. Salesmanship is extract
ing from sketches and blue prints.

that which will appeal to the user,
presenting the articles in such man
ner that the prospective customer
becomes willing to part with his
money for it. This is salesmanship
with the multiplication table thrown
in.
"Successful business and advertis-
ing men are the ones who first an
alyze these conditions. Advertising
is the short cut between the producer
and customer. Our constantly in
creasing wealth, together with the
diversity of our possessions on the
one side and the growing multiplici-
ty of our wants on the other are the
two outstanding facts of modern
commercial life. Together they eX-
plain the necessity and point to the
value of advertising as a factor in
the commercial history of our time. y

RAIDS BI POLICE.
Charleston Chief of Police Says Or
derS Being Enforced.

Charleston, April 1.-Acting on
orders received from Mayor Grace to
enforce the law, Chief of Police Can't
we'll Yesterday morning sent out two
SQUADS of plain clothes men and
members of the detective department
to carry out the instructions OF the
mavor. AS a result many blind
tigers were raided and all during the
day the patrol wogons at the police
station were kept busy hauling con-
traband goods and slot machines to
the station house.
News of the Raids Spread.
Yesterday morning Chief Can't
we'll. having received orders from
Mavor Grace. instructed the men,
bers of the regular raiding squads
and another organized squad along
with the detectives that the law
must be enforced. The men left the
station house and, working in dlf-
ferent sections of the city, came
down on blind tigers like a bolt OF
lightning from a clear sky.
Call after call was received from
members of the squads to send the
natrol wagons to haul in the goods
seized. The police, however, had
hardly gotten to work before news
of their activity spread like wildflre.
While in some places the fixtures OF
the blind tigers had been removed
before the arrival of the policemen
some were caught in full swing and
their fixtures were smashed.
One man, who was making spe-
cialty of taking down fixtures, stat
ed yesterday afternoon that he had
ALREADY .disrobed" twenty-seven
tigers and had orders from others.
Statement on Seizures.
When asked for statement last
night Chief Cantwell said: Il have
received orders from the mayor to
enforce the law and | am now en-
forcing it. I have out two raidlng
SQUADS and my detectives at work.
This was all he would say about the
raids, except to give out a statement
on the goods seized in the raids,
which is as follows: 663 bottles or
beer: 2s gallons of wine; 80 quarts
of whiskey; 146 half-pints of Whis-
key and 3S,slot machines.
The liquor will be delivered to the
dispensary headquarters this morn
ing and the slot machines will be
smashed in the yard of the police
station
A number of blind tigers We're re-
ported to have closed their doors yes
terday and it is said that the bars
in two hotels have also put locks on
their entrances.
The wholesale raids will continue
today, but it is not believed that the
police, will make as great hauls as
they did yesterday, when their work
attracted so much attention from the
public. No disorder marred the
work of the police, it is reported.
