want Paid Hunters.

a. perusal Of letters received BY
Secretary Of State Kozer indicates
that the greatest opposition to the
bounty bill comes from those coun-
ties bearing the heaviest burden
Of county payments. These would
abolish the bounty law entirely,
turning to paid expert hunters
and trappers as more efficient
means for eradicating the preda-
tory animal pests. Other counties
favor an amendment to the pres
ent law making the payment Of
bounties optional with the coun-
ty court Of each county. A meas
ure~ TO this effect was introduced
into the legislature of 1921 by
Representative Gallagher of Nal
heur county. 1t passed the lower
houses but was defeated in the
senate.
From the counties along the
Nevada border come complaints
that many coyotes and other ami
mails which have been killed across
the state line are brought into
Oregon for the purpose of collect
ing bounty. This charge seems
to be borne out, in measure at
least by a comparison of the boun-
ties paid by the various counties
of the state in which it is seen
that the border counties-Mal-
heur, Harney and Lake are the
hardest hit by the bounty collec-
tors.
Costly to Many.
A summary of bounty payments
by counties in the 13-year period,
prepared by Secretary of State
Kozer, follows:
Baker, $15.S33.39; Benton,
$481.46; Clackamas, $2209.83;

CUSTOMERS VIEWPOINT.

1t is idle folly for the merchant
to go at the problem of business
building without considering the
customers viewpoint.
The customers differ wonderful
ly in their ideas, their likes and
dislikes; but the minds of the Gus
toners act much alike in q general
way. They anslyze things in much
the same way and have much the
same viewpoint. Were this not
true the problem of advertising
would be impossible of solution, as
the advertiser would then be COM
PEELED to have as many different
kinds of appeal as there are indi-
viduals. But human nature is
much the same, and the problem
for the advertiser is to strike a char
acter of advertising his goods that
appeals to most of the people and
his success is assured.
There is nothing more useful for
the advertiser than to put himself
in the customers vision of things.
The advertiser thus learns why the
customer wants the goods and why
he buys the goods, all of which is
essential to the advertiser in prop
erly advertising the goods
A most valuable advantage to the
advertiser is to have the article ft /
sale used by few who heartily
recommend it. This is the best
kind of argument to induce hosts
of others to try the article. People
want to know an article is in COM
mon use, and then they rush for it
simply because it is in common use.
In this way the advertiser corrals
the customers viewpoint.
A merchant may fill his ads with
high-sounding phrases, giving cut
prices, etc, but if he does not study
the conditions of his prospective
customers, construct ADVERTISE
mepts that attract the customers
attention, and interest and con
vince him by advertising from the
customers viewpoint he cannnt be
at all certain Of his resnte.

dering vagabond, as he is in many
cases The educated negro who
reads, thinks and understands is
becoming plentiful in the north;
the most of them, as shown by the
census reports, have white blood
in them. They are getting away
from the idea of being q chattel of
the Republican party, getting only
the political husks and never a bite
from the first table of the party
When Harding came in with a ma
jority of unheard of size, in both
branches of Congress, the negro
knew that the platform promise of
auti-lynching legislation could be
redeemed if the white Republicans
really had much interest in it. 1t
is two years since the promise was
made and no prophet has the cour-
age to attempt to visualize the final
enactment of the law, poor and un-
constitutional as it is. Is it any
wonder our brother in black is get
ting cold feet? George E. Wibe-
can of Brooklyn, one of the ablest
leaders of his race, refers to the
political betrayal of the negro in
the north, and thinks the negro
should divide up along political
lines. He thinks the negro has

publican party far enough after
having been betrayed by every Re-
publican administration from
Hayes to Harding.
Confusion, disappointments and
quarrels are the daily portion of
the Republicans. They have
reached the point where each Off
cial is blaming the other; the Mem
bers OF the House are railing at
the Senate and the Senators are
criticizing the President and the
Cabinet, while Cabinet members
and their assistants are ready to
quit if they can't have their own
way, The quarrel between Secre-
tary Fall and Secretary Wallace is
acute; that between Assistant Sec
retary Dover and Commissioner
Blair is torrid, while Chairman
Adams of the National Committee
has fallen afoul of half dozen of
the big.wigs in Office. Adams is
demanding jobs for the faithful,
while the efficient Democrats who
are in the jobs can't be spared. Re-
Gently Harding appointed a new
lot of employees at the Bureau of
Engraving; some of them are about
to have their lives barred in court,
while one of the men fred, who
had been drawing FIVE thousand
per year, has gone to England to
take twenty-thousand Job. II
these that Harding put in were in
such demand as that, the fact has
not leaked out.

No single explanation is ade-
quate to make plain the cause of
the Republican breakdown, for
such it is, for the general opinion
among business men of all politi-
cal shades is that such an exhibit
ton of discord and incapacity has
rarely occurred, certainly not in an
entire administration where all
branches were of one party.

Especial News Correspondent.

10 nVUOhl pb vi we pdIG OI group
OF shipping magnates to get away
with the peoples three. .billion-dol-
lar steel fleet is not meeting with
enthusiasm. A number of Repub-
lican Congressman have heard
from home aud are going to have
to vote against the bill, no matter
how indignant the President may
become. The bill is not helped,
nor is the tottering administration
aided by the fact that Lasker, of
the Shipping Board has permitted
the ships to sell whiskey to pas
sengers-with fully equipped bars,
union bartenders, mirrors,s fancy
bottles and all of the old-time
trimmings. 1t is now up to Hard
ing to decide whether it shall con-
tinue. 1t seems to take him some
time to decide very simple ques-
don. 1t is not a question as to
whether or not we should have
passed a prohibition law; it is a
question whether the Government
is willing to set the example of do
ing thing which it prosecutes as
a criminal act when committed by
an individual. If the President
sets this example, then all people
lose all respect for ell law and the
reign of law is at an end.
X Y y
Every few days we hear of.anoth-
er Republican Congressman who
suddenly discovers that he has
been neglecting his private busi-
ness too long and that he can't af-
ford to remain in Congress.
Slemp, the one Republican Mem
Der from Virginia, is the latest.
He needn't bother-whether he
runs or not he will be able to give
all of his time to his private bust
ness after next March. The Vir-
ginia Democrats have the jinx sign
on that district, and 70 Republi.
can is going to represent it in the
next Congress. BY the way, the
best information can get from
New York is that the greater city,
with it's twenty-odd districts, will
probably not send single Repub-
lican to the next House. A strik-
ing thing occurred in the city at
the mayoralty election a few
months ago-fully half of the ne
gro voters voted the Democratic
ticket. The heaviest negro pre-.
cincts returned Democratic major
tiles. This nsw ailment is report
ed to be spreading in the north and
east, led by the most intelligent
members of the black race. The
Republican party platform of 1920
promised the end of lynch law;
the Dyer Anti-lynehing bill, SEEM
ingly hopelessly hung up in Con-
gress along with the bonus bill, is
the only result Of the promise.
Dyer and everyone else concerned
in the bill know full well that it,
il enacted into law, would not stand
a ghost of show before the Su-
preme Court. Republican Mem
bers have said so on the floor of the
House; some have refused to vote
for such a piece of hypocrisy.
Judge Hersey of Maine denoupc-
ed it as a fraud and filed minori-
ty report against it. Of course ev-
ery one knows that the piling up
of laws will not stop the white man
when his home is defiled; that is
one of the reasons why the white
man has always been supreme
The oaly way to stop lynching is
to stop. the cause of it, and the
cause seems best approached in the

DUNCAN
dies in CANADA
Former Head of Delaware
Hospital and Overseas
Nurse
DEATH ATTRIBUTED
TO WAR SERVICE

Word was received here today Of
the death on Tuesday of Miss Jean
cite Duncan, former superintendent
of the Delaware Hospital, at the
home OF her sister, Mrs. r. f.
MacKay, at Ontario, Can. Death
was attributed TO a breakdown OF
health caused by her service over
seas as nurse with the Canadian
troops.
Miss Duncan came to Wilmington
from Montreal, Canada, In June 1908
and accepted the position OF head
nurse at the Delaware Hospital. She
was a graduate Of the General Hos
pital in Montreal and took a post
graduate specialized course at Johns
Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore. She
was appointed superintendent OF the
Delaware Hospital in the latter part
OF 1908 and remained in that posi-
ton until August, 1914, when she
was granted a leave OF absence and
went overseas as a nurse with the
troops from her native country. She
was abroad eight months and on her
return took up her duties as supsrin-
tendent at the Delaware Hospital
When the United States entered
the war In 1917 Miss Duncan I'M
mediately volunteered as a nurse and
was assigned TO duty at Camp Dix.
During the epidemic of influenza
that swept Wilmington. four years
ago, Miss Duncan was assigned to
this city and established the emer-
gency hospital at the New Century
Club. After the war the effect OF
the breakdown OF her health while
overseas became very evident and
her sight became seriously impair
ed. She lived for awhile at The
Blind Shop and last April went TO
Ontario where she had .sincs made
her home with her sister. She has
many friends in this city who will
greatly regret her death.
