ISN'T HE AMENABLE?

Section 52S1 Of the Revised Stat
utes of the United States reads as
follows:
Every citizen of the United States
who, within the territory or juris-
diction thereof, accepts and exercises
commission to serve a foreign
prince, state colony o rpeople, in war,
state colony, district, or people, with
whom the United States are at peace,
by land or sea, against any prince,
shall be deemed guilty of high mis-
demeanor, and shall be fined not
more than $4,000 and imprisoned not
more than three years.
}. P. Morgan is the accredited fl
nancial agent of the British Empire
in the United States. The statute
referred to was evidently enacted
for the purpose of enforcing strict
neutrality when foreign wars threat
ened international complications.
President Wilson tells us we want
to remain neutral, but why don't he
get after Morgan?

publisher in a western state re-
Gently intimated that some of the
merchants of his town had been
busying themselves in an attempt to
organize the business men of the
town for the purpose of cutting out
all advertising In the local papers by
common consent on the ground that
it is a worthless expenditure. While
we do not believe that there is the
slightest danger of any such thing
being done It is interesting to spec
ulate on what would be the conse-
quences should such thing come to
pass.
The local paper is the index of the
public spirit, financial and moral con-
ditions and the general welfare of
every community and the criterion
by which it is judged by all outside
people. If any difference, this story
is told more strongly in the adver-
tising columns than in the news col
umns A local paper well patronized
by the local tradesmen whose adver-
tisements are newsy, breezy, and in
season, and up-tO-date, telling of

their goods and wares-the newest
things, the best things and their
prices, Is an infallible indication of
a good town, publie-spirited people
progresslveness of the highest type
and kind, On the other hand sup
pose the local merchants do not adj
vertise In the local papers. They
must have advertising to live. II
follows as a necessity that they must
take any kind of a cheap proposition
they can patent medicine, whis-
key ads, mall order displays, gun and
bicycle oflers-the paper presents u
sorry appearance. You read power
ty in very line and between the
lines, there is no evidence of pros
perity, (and there is none) and no
public spirit, and the homeseeker
who reads the paper will shun the
town as sure as he would shun the
bubonic plague.
On the other hand suppose the To-
cal paper should begin whooping II
up for the mail order houses and tell
the people how much they would save
by patronizing them. How long
would IL be before the grass would
be growing in the streets and half the
merchants would go out or business
You can readily see there are two
sides to this question
No worthy newspaper publisher is
willing to consider advertising pat
ronage in the nature of an, act OF
charity or even a donation. He
knows, as does also the merchant,
that space purchased at a reasonable
price, rightly and intelligently used,
is worth more than the cost, There
are few publishers that do not strive
earnestly to promote the best inter
est of every enterprise or industry
in the community, They earn every
cent they get and their services are
worth much more to the community.
The best advertisement any town can
have is a real live newspaper, well
patronized by local people, and don't
make the mistake of expecting too
much for a nickel.-Buckeye Coun-

HAVE You YoUR KNapoM?

An old Roman. one Senaea, who
died too soon, and who died a rather
cowardly death, considering his phil
osophy and his personal merit, once
wrote "A good man possesses a
kingdom"
II is very true; the good shall in
herit the earth, we have been told,
Why? Simply because they are
good. The reason is sufficient. My
mind to me a kingdom is, wrote an
other man and he wrote truly. We
can see nothing, have nothing, that
is not within ourselves, Hence our
kingdom Is good or bad accordingly
as we live, as we are.
We think of a kingdom as some
thing worth while, something OF ma
terial worth, something fine and de-
sirable, so, in the concept Of the old
Roman, II we ourselves are good and
worth while, our kingdom shall be
likewise, on the contrary. one may
have a kingdom which is a veritable
hell; he may be a ruler therein, but
he vii have TO suffer, all its pomp
and blazOnry at last Will turn to dead
sea fruit, to ashes on his lips
What kind OF kingdom have you?

state board of agriculture's failure in

boosts and boquets for certain mem
bers of the board and its secretary.
Why? Records in state auditors Of

This is one reason why the Fair

This is one item of foolish expense
that made the 1915 fair a big flnan-

Robins Gift to ENGLAND.

In the Burlington Magazine an arti-
tle on Robins gift to the British ma.
ton of collection of his works is &C
Claimed from an angle of appreciation.
The writer decides that although Ro-
din's fame was made In France it was
established in England and that in
reality Rodin Is a British institution.
There Is something to be said in more
senses than one for the contention.
Specifically, there is less sharpness
of contrast between the best British
sculpture and that of Rodin than ex-
lists between his work and all other
French sculpture of technical excel
lence. His blurred contours are seen
to better effect in the environment of
London than in the vivacious light of
the Luxembourg. But of course the
main point is that the generous old
sculptor achieved a maximum of tact
III making himself the symbol of the
new mutual understanding between
the two great nations.

He let out a roar of protest every

What can't be cured must be en-

A few went to rival boiler makers and,
much to Mr.. Moynihan's surprise

profit for the twelve months was very

more and instead of profit he had a

He Scorned Rebate Offer.
But combination was in the air. II
1t didn't succeed well in the boiler
line, it did in the supply houses. Mr..
Moynihan bought his sheet metal, his

where he pleased. He would patronize
one establishment until something oc-
CURED to irritate him and then he
would transfer his trade to another.

his account was we'll worth having.
One day, suave, diplomatic gentle

to go to luncheon with him. When
the old man was in mellow mood the

The men behind this consolidation

They wanted Mr. Moynihan to share
Ii Mr.. Moynihan would agree to buy
his supplies from the combination he
would find it greatly to his advantage.
The combination would sell to the
general trade at a certain figure, but
to men like Mr.. Moynihan, whose ac-
counts were large, and whose trade
was well worth having, a concession
would be made. This concession would
not be made at the time of purchase

certain percentage of his purchases
would be sent to him at the end of

Quick to anger and quick to forget,
Mr.. Moynihan didn't think much of
the affair of the dining room. He no.
ticed, however, that a very decided
change was coming over the hardware

men with whom he had done business
for many years sold out and took posi-
