JOLTS AND JINGLES By Ad Brown In his message to congress Taft savs that when he vetoed the tariff reform bill he was "not possessed of ado-J quate knowledge to determine whether or not the proposed act was in accordance with his pledge to support a fair and reasonable tariff policy." Was Taft possessed of tho "adequate knowledge" when ho signed schedule K of the Payno-Aldrioh bill which he has been forced since to admit "indefensible" and which his own board shows an outrage? Hut Taft's tariff board does not recommend any par ticular nit os of duty and Taft now asks congress to reduce tho duties on wool and woolens. So it is once more up to congress whoso conclusion on tho tantt. had been embodied in the bill which Taft vetoed, because it was a democratic insurgent measure. Taft blundered when ho signed the Fayno-Aldrich tariff bill and has been foYeod to admit it. Tho tariff board s report proves that ho blundered again whun he vetoed the tariff reform bill. lit IW iinutncllou of a u'i'lalif iUntlt of l-onl.

Any competition that gets the business must be recog nized, and the competition met. The principal reason the farmer sends liis trade to the catalog bouses is the patent one that he believes their prices are lower than can be obtained from the local mer chants. If he is right in his belief that the mail order prices are lower, then the dealers aro to blame for letting this con dition obtain. On the other hand, if he is wrong, if tho prices in the local stores are as low as the others, then the home dealers are at fault m not taking aggressive steps to convince him of it, steps such as the mail order houses took to convert him to their side. Successful merchants keep in touch with the rural pop ulation and show that trade is appreciated.

The news matter is home print and speaks well not only for the enterprise and ability of the publisher, Rex Lampman, but also for the merchants and business men of that thriving city. To print a 20 page paper in Gold Hill is an achieve ment entailing difficulties appreciated only by those fa miliar with the limitations of the country print shop. As the editor remarks: "The Christmas number of the News probably repre sents a greater effort, comparatively, than was expended by the Portland Oregonian on its great anniversary num ber, or than will be expended by the Medford Mail Tribune on its big New Year's edition. Ilindcrcd and hampered by a lack of labor-saving machinery and adequate equipment, and crippled by the financial inability to employ compe tent help, the average country publisher must of necessity, if his paper is to make a creditable showing, work harder every, dayjn the year than tho. city newspaper man. who! has (ivovy high-priced aid at his fingers' ends. Then, too,) there is no "division of labor" in a country printshop, as lliere is in a eitr office. The country publisher compos itely takes the place of all the big salaried men in all de partments on the city paper. He leaves an editorial on the iniquitious tariff "up in the air" to kick off some dance bills on the job press. However, he is "on the job" be cause he likes it, and this is a plain statement of fact rather than a complaint. "The reader will find these twenty pages filled with clean, timely reading matter, and will note that the adver- r.isovK linvft "enmf! fln,mio,li" rrmiorniiKlv. Advertising patronage is the sinews of war of all legitimate news-! papers, and it. will almost invariably be iound that the excellence of a country newspaper is in exact ratio to the amount of advertising it carries. In other words, the country publisher makes as good a paper as he can afford to make and often better." ;1- And in this case, at any rate, the editor has succeeded. ealorlflr power of n fl nil wo urv lilt to tlttrmlitu llio oll ittimMr or boat ttttlU vyU'Ult It wl't WW upon tinllluic wllh tho Ostium of Ihh air ThU calnllfK p rout lh hiteonUory xtautlpoltu hi ovr ralNcl In iirm'tti'o, h n it th.n- W u"i dottul but Unit hi our rnuh' rniiiilno mtn i aouroolj rcnltko "(I jhm run l lb flifl vuluo or tho oil.
