TOUR STRENGTHENS
WILSON IN NATION
RESULTS OF RECENT SPEECH.
MAKING TRIP BELIEVED FA.
VORABLE TO HIM.

What did the presidents recent
Swing around the circle" in support
of his preparedness program accom-
plish? Did it win him friends? Did
it strengthen and renew his popu-
larity? Did it establish his leader
ship? Did it bring him closer to the
people?
National capital observers say that
as result Of his Western trip the
president has gained in every way
support for his policy of national pre-
paredness, personal support, in pop
ularity, political standing and leader
ship.
Most important of all, perhaps,
President Wilson has gained in his
ability to reach and move the people.
The clearly outstanding features of
the trip we're the growing power over
his audience, and the strongly in
creased leadership which he showed
from day to day. particularly since
his fighting spirit was aroused by
direct challenge in Kansas.
Trip Momentous Politically.
The results of the trip divide along
two lines-preparedness and politics.
Notwithstanding the great care exer.
cised by the president to keep the
mind of the country fastened entirely
on the question of national defense.
the trip was momentous politically.
It could not be otherwise. Start
ing his trip in the critical atmosphere
of high tariff and standpat Pittsburg,

understood the solicitor when he said
100 copies would cost SIS, and re-
piled Gall right, you can put me down
for $50" Needless to say that the
solicitor did. A good solicitor can
call on from 80 to As men a day,
and city is solicited in two or three
weeks time.
Important Not to Let the Advertiser
Think.
OF course the main thing is to dis
tract the mans mind from the work
In hand. Our solicitors were trained
to compliment man on his store, to
tell him of current events and to pre-
vent in every way the man from
thinking clearly about the solicita-
ton. One Of our solicitors always
carried with him a big copper half
tone-an illustration Of q public
building-and always placed it 20
the advertiser was bound to pick it
up and ask questions about 1t.
The edition finally appears. The
collector loads buggy with all the
papers 1t will hold and starts out
after the money. He has the mer-
chants contracts. which have been
carefully indexed so that it IL easy
to locate the various advertisements
in the paper.
Finding q certain merchants small,
two or three-inch advertisement in q
16-page paper containing from four
to FIVE hundred similar articles, and
locating 1t Immediately so that the
customer does not greet you with the
remark. mo one will ever find tt
can't even nnd it myself and I am
looking for It," seems a dihicult task,
but not SO with the specialization
man. He has painstakingly looked
through the contracts and papers and
his checked the article and noted on
the margin of the contract the page
and column where the advertisement
is. When the collector walks in he
has previously noted the index on the
contract. knows the exact location Of
the article and of course it is easy for
him to casually turn to the proper
page and place his finger in the
proper column. While the merchant
is looking through the advertisement
he is interrupted with, "Shall I mark
this contract paid?" and usually be-
fore he realizes Just what he is doing
or stops to complain he has reached
for the check book or cash drawer.
OF course this does not always apply.
but 1t does in by far the greater ma
jorfty. When a man does complain
it is sometimes hard to show him
why q small confectioner happens to
have a bigger and better story than
the leading manufacturer or why a
saloon keeper is more prominent than
a banker.
The specialization man usually
takes in all the papers ordered so as
to impress the merchant with the big
volume Of circulation. After he has
the money he remarks to the mer-
chant that most of the advertisers
want the publisher to distribute the
papers for them-that they can do
1t so much cheaper, inasmuch as they
have a rate of one cent a pound. and
that II the merchant mailed them
himself he would have to put two
or three cent stamp on each copy.
The merchant admits this to be true
and ends with the remark that he
wants about dozen copies for his
own use and the publisher had better
distribute the balance in that vague
place "where they will do the most
good"

question of the community's senti-
ment positively fixed.
He made the issue clearly non-par-
tisan. Whatever suspicious Of seek
ing party advantage were felt Of him
by partisan opponents when he start
ed have been dispelled. Increasingly
the audiences accepted his appeals -
for the good Of the country and not
for any party or for himself. At hrst
the Germans we're inclined to stand
out on this, but the great demonstra-
ton In st. Louis showed that even
they had accepted his sincerity.
Political Features Indirect.
The political features of the trip
have been more indirect than direct.
Despite the declared non-partisan
purposes of the trip, it was realized
that when the president left Wash
ington his own party leadership and
his chances to make an aggressive.
winning fight against the Republic
ans next fall both hung in the bal
ance.
He had to take Bryan and Roose-
welt, at the two opposite ends OF the
question of which he could control
his own party, and to lay founda-
ton that would give him strong
ground against the charges Of betray-
ing the national honor and interests
in his efforts to preserve the peace.

EXPERTS MUST BUILD ROADS
Explanation Of Failure Of Authorities
Generally to Maintain Roads
and Streets.

The astonishing results OF a censua
taken recently on a secondary thor
~Dughfare leading out OF London
showed only 3 per cent OF horse-drawn
vehicles. The exact count was 10 We
hicies OF the latter class to 500 ve'
hicles propelled otherwise than by
horses. Herein lies both an explana.
ton OF the failure OF public authorities
generally throughout the world to
maintain roads and streets in good
condition, and also a presentation Of
the difficulties that road constructors
now confront.

 The rapidly increasing number of employees in the Remington plant has necessitated the services of two phy- s1cians besides a night and a day nurse and orderlies This may seem a rather formidable staff for private il. s1ustriaI hospital but when the en1- ploves number close to 10000 and ev- eryone is required to report to the hospital for treatment of the slightest scratch, the staff will be seen as none too large.

In urging an 'ap- peal to arms he said: They tell us. sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and in action2 Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying su- pineIy on our backs and hugging the deIusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?'' He concladed: .tIs life so dear or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? For bid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!n
