A La Grande professional man is one of the most tact ful music critics we ever expect to meet. In speaking of an event some time ago, he said music is a good deal like whiskey, and he had never experienced any really bad whiskey but some is a little better than others. We would be inclined to think some of these mornings that cliill'y blasts of winter still hold sway over the calen dar, but we saw a man buy a lawn-mower the .other day. And a man who'll do that the middle of March is either an optimist or a weather prophet or both. THE ADVERTISER'S PULL. What does your daily paper actually cost? It is obvious that tho several pennies you pay per day does not cover the expense involved in the writing and printing of this newspaper. What do magazines cost? It is reported the actual cost per copy of a famous weekly selling for 5 cents is ac tually '12 cents. Somebody pays for your newspaper and your magazine. This somebody is the ndvertiser. From this simple bit of logic, obvious to all, has come the popular fancy that advertisers control the editors. , Radical.4 love to mouth the phrase "the kept' press." i - And, of course; if the advertiser 'makes the paper pos sible, it would seem reasonable to assume that he controls the independence of the editor and directs the policy of the owner. JUit it is not in accordance with either logic or truth. Advertising makes possible your daily paper. Rut no in dividual advertiser makes it possible! The bulk of advertising carried in a newspaper makes possible the publication of that paper. Newspapers fre quently reject undesirable advertising. In doing so they not only assert their independence of individual clients, but enhance the lone, of the paper and increase the pulling power of the advertising columns. The advertiser's "pull" with the editor and publisher is a myth. The only pull is the pulling power of a well written ad in a reputable' newspaper. The average adver tiser knows this, and is content to help you enjoy for a few cents a real newspaper. HFflPK FOR 1UKS-CAKF.
