Advertising is the force which has developed Western America, and more especially the Pacific Coast, so rapidly that its growth has been little short of miraculous. All of the advertising in the world caunot possibly make a permanent success of a proposition which is not what it surport.8 tobe. Misrepresent ation may sometimes bring tempor ary benefit, hut can never produce a permanent success. The advertising which has forced this western county forward so rapidly has been ground ed on the sure foundation of merit. Nature provided the stock of goods. The men who first came to realize the qualities of the stock in hand set about promoting i t The result is a stupendous triumph for the modern idea of publicity. Now, if you grasp the full import of my idea, you will understand that every one who has been in any way instrumental in building up the west has been to just that extent one of the promoters of this gigantic advertising scheme. The out reaching of this idea is So wide that it calls up many thoughts which have not occurred to the ordinary advertiser— thoughts which it will pay him to ponder in order to apply the principles to his own individual business. In the nature of things, you and I have not been so situated as to make our effort count for very much in the advertising propaganda of the West. Who have been the leaders in this work? First of all, I should No 32. circulation and a more careful read ing than is ordiunrily accorded to papers of like caliber. It has consequently enhanced many fold the advertising vslue of these publications. Our important papers give much more atteuliou to development news ,to write-ups of our advantages, to illustrations of our commercial enterprises, to articlrs bearing on business openings and possible in vestments; they give much more space to all this kind of matter than the same sort of daily in the East This is reason that they have been so valuable to their section. This is the reason that I feel that our important newspapers are in an altogether different clase from the Eastern publications. The local newspaper is the best advertiser of any community. The outside benefit which a com munity is to derive from such a newspaper depends, however, on gettting the paper into the hands of outside people who might perhaps be interested in the community if its advantages are properly brought to their attention. This phase of the matter has been very much neglected in most com munities, Sometimes a board of trade or other commercial body has seen to it that a certain number of copies of the local papers were mailed to eastern addresses. In a few cases advertising in Eastern publications has been used to secure the names to send these local papers to, but I am sorry to say that this practice is altogether too rare. It presents the only rational method ot placing mis vaiuauie loeui ad vertising matter in the right hands. I spy, then to every man who feels that be would like to have some influeuse in the upholding of the coast: Whether you live at a country cross road, or in a metro politan center, support your paper in every way possible, and help to circulate it where it will do your community good.— W.
