DOES ADVERTISING IN THE CITIZEN
PAY KEY WEST FIRMS

A citizen of Key West came to the
brink of disaster last week, when he ap-
preached the editor of The Citizen and,
vertising, asked us: "Do you really be-
lieve in advertising for the merchants in
Key West as business proposition?"
We wondered whether the emphasis
of the questioner was accidentally on the
word really in order to suggest that our
opinion of advertising in The Citizen was
piped up by the profits that come out of
it. However, we passed that over, because
we instantly realized that the only reason
the speaker ever thought of being in bust
ness, or of doing anything, was to get the
money.
However, the question can be fairly
asked by many merchants of Key West
who might put it this way: SIS advertis-
ing profitable business investment for the
merchants of Key West?"
To answer the question theoretically,
as it is asked, eliminates from our argu
ment the proof that is furnished us by sue
cessful examples of the use of advertising
in The Citizen and causes us to discuss, in
an admittedly hurried way, the query that
comes to every business man, as he con-
templates the expenditures he makes for
advertising.
The returns from advertising in The
Citizen are two-fold There is the direct
return, as for example, when a sale of
shoes brings customers into a store to buy
shoes, and there is the Indirect but pos
sibly as valuable return, which comes in
increased prestige that grows upon the con-
3ciousness of the reading public and causes
them to appreciate difference between
the regular advertiser and the non-adver-
tiser. This can be illustrated by bank,
offering ostensibly the same service as
other banks, but which, nevertheless,
through the medium of series of adver-
tisements Identifies itself, in the public
mind with modern, up-to-date, efficient
business policies.

20 LYNCHED-84 SAVED

The annual lynching statistics of
Tuskeegee Institute, one of the outstand-
ing cOlOred educational institutions in the
country, have been made public for the
year 1885
Twenty persons were lynched in the
United States, seven of which were in Mis-
sissippi and all except one in California
were credited to southern states. Two of
the victims were white men.
An encouraging factor is that this re-
port shows that eighty-four persons were
saved by officers from possible harm at
the hands of mobs, and of these sixty-seven
were Negroes. This means, according to
the Tuskeegee figures, that in four cases
out of every five in which mobs sought to
injure Negroes the white officers of the
law protected the Negroes.
Of the twenty lynchings one over half
took place in Louisiana and Mississippi
leaving only nine which occurred in other
states. Florida, Georgia and Texas were
the reported locations of two each and
California North Carolina and Tennessee
one each. These figures indicate that pub
lie sentiment is fairly generally opposed to
the crime of lynching.
