A tragic story was related some
time ago in the newspapers.
Passengers on steamship
which arrived from South Amer
lean ports saw a man shot to
death on the steamers decks.
Arthur ketehie, master. at
arms Of the ship, who did the
shooting, was turned over to the
police on arrival. His victim
was Theodore Sekt, an oiler, a
gigantic Swede reputed to be the
son of a wealthy match manu-
facturer.
There seems to have been a
row on board when a number OF
the crew left their forecastle to
90 forward to get a supply of
liquor they had located.
ketehie stopped them. A fight
threatened and Sekt intervened
to prevent it. He intended to act
merely as a peacemaker.
His good nature was said to
have been in accord with his
size, and he was very popular
among the men.
When ketehie saw the sixfoot
Swede approach, however, he
drew his aun and fired into the
group. The bullet found Sekt,
who dropped where he stood and
died in ten minutes.
Ketchie fled in a panic, the
crew pursuing him. Women pas
sengers tainted and men passen.
gers hurried to the cover Of their
cabins. ketchie was rescued by
the captain, who kept him a pris-
oner till the ship arrived in port.
This story illustrates what hap
pens when a man has a gun.
The captain did not know that
ketchie had one. II had been
lent to him by the chief officer
because there was a large ship
ment of gold specie on board,
without the knowledge Of the
captain.
A gun means death. When a
man carries a revolver it is for
the contingency of having to kill
somebody.
It ought to follow logically
from this that no man should be
allowed to have a revolver un-
less the law reposes in him the
power of executing the death
penalty upon his judgment.
We already have laws in most
civilized countries against the
carrying Of concealed weapons.
But il does very little good TO
make il crime to be in posses
sion OF a revolver so long as

BECAUSE HE HAD A GUN

there are plenty of stores along
the street whore reVolVers are
sold.
II is little short of ludiereus, IL i
were not so tragic, that while It
is criminal to own an instrument
of death anybody can walk into
store and buy one IN perfect
freedom.
At the present stage Of oiViIiza-
ton it is the state alone, the gov.
ernment alone, that has the right
to execute the death penalty, and
that only after due process Of
law. And that being the case, "
is the government alone that
should have the right 20 manu-.
faeture and sell instruments OF
death.
The sale of arms for hunting
and other purposes may be nee
essary. But the private sale OF
deadly weapons to the people
generally, and particularly Of re-
VolVers, is another matter.
The American people have al
ready abolished the saloon and
taken away from the ambitious
merchant the right to peddle poi
son to all corners.
And it is high time that it be-
gan TO consider "aats" and such
things as equally dangerous.

Chief among the means of creating
Demand is now seen to be Advertis-
ing. Wherever you find a big demand
for any product you find, invariably.
that the demand for that product has
been stimulated by human effort, and
chiefly through advertising.
Ii is obvious to any one who will think
it through that the present demand for
any product could be substantially
lessened if il were possible to eliminate
all forms of MISUNDERSTANDING
pictures. displays. and word Of mouth.
as well as printed and painted messages
land just let hat product depend on
the natural or unstimulated demand.
And it is equally obvious hat a de-
mand for any worthy product can be
created and stimulated by means of
Advertising.
This fact puts within the hands of the
business man the means of creating his
market. That would be the big
gest asset he could have-an assured
market for all he could produce.
