PUBLIC OPINION.
What Some of the Boys are Saying on
Topic9 of the Day.
. Speaking on the shipping bill the other
diiy, Senator Frye Hai J : Now, this is a
lireut nation. We boast of it immensely,
We are complimenlinir ourselves hugely
over the census returns, over our wealth,
over our manufacturing industries; and
yet to-day we are fulling into the con
tempt of the whole world because we, a
maritime nation, have no ships on the
ocean; uijfa we are- entitled to that con
tempt, too. We are a giant, but we are
bound. We are a Sampson, but our
locks are Bhorn. Why should we pay
$150,000,000 a year to foreign ships for
carrying our cargoes? Why should we
carry our mails under a foreign flag?
Why should every paHsenj?er who de
sires to sail from America ubroad be
compelled to sail under a foreign flag?
Why should we, witli our immense
wealth and our great power, our ship
yards and mechanics, our enormous
count-line, depend upon foreign nations
to do all of our foreign carrying business
for us? Why should we permit them to
pay subsidies, as England lias for fifty
years, and quietly surrender the posses
sion of all this business? Why yield to
Spain and Germany and Italy and Hol
land and the Argentine Republic?
Ihifiiness pluck is necessary for the
development of tho resources ot any
community. It makes little difference
how advantageously any point is situ
nted, if those interested in its growth do
not exercise enterprise and energy the
town w ill die and allow other cities to
reap the advantages which it natnrallv
possesses. If we had the business grit
of Spokane rails, Ilakur t it v or even
l'endleton, steamers would now bo mak
mg daily trips to and fiom tho upper
Cascades, and tho railroad company
would be tho suppliant instead of the
business men of Tho Dalles cringing at
every movement and craving the least
favor from 'the heartless and greedy
monopoly. If Tho Italics will rid itself
' onhoHSbac'Uisin it may yet siirvivo and
be a leading city of Oiegon; if not, it
will die of inertia. The Dallei Timet-

A petition comes from Colorado pray
ing Congress to buy the historic field of
Valley Forge ami make it a public park
There is nothing in all the daily records
of events more encouraging than these
occasional ami unquestionable evidences
of patriotic spirit. There is not a more
thoroughly material state in nil the
Union than Colorado; its history is only
tho story of yesterday ; it was settled by
adventure and bus been built by a
thoroughly speculative and practical
class of people, yet it is from Colorado
end not from Massachusetts or Virginia
that this appeal comes. As the years
go by the impression grows that truo
Americanism lias followed the star of
empire to tho west. Detroit Free Press.
Tertland wants the Press association
there this year. The association meets
in August, and ubout fifty editors expect
to bo present. The best thing 1'ortland
business men can do is to give tho boys
a big string of good-paying "ads." for
six months or a year. That would hit
the boyi better than for the business
men to spend $1500 or 2000 in stuffing
them at the Portland hotel. Oregon
editors are not after the grand ; they are
chasing tho substantial only. Issue
"ads." to the boys and let them provide
their owu frugal rations. ailvtrtan
Appeal,
Senator roster, ot Louisiana, in a

"I say, sir, that if Louisiana cannot per

educate her children and support her

from her her sovereign rights as a state
and place her under tho control and pro
tection of the Federal government or
Dome other government savo the govern
ment of the lottery company."

it doesn't pay and he can't afford to ad
vertise, sets up his judgment iu opposi
tion to that of all the
beet business men of the
world, says an experienced ad
vertising authority. With a few years'
experience in conducting a small busi
ness on a few thousand dollars
of capital, the man who
thinks that
ADVERTISING DOESN'T PAY
assumes to
know more than thousands
of men whoso hourly transactions aggre
gate more than do his in a
year, and
who have made their mil
lions by pursuing a course that he says
is unprofitable.
DON'T II F: A Ml'D.TlltrLE,
If advertising
doesn't pay, why is it that
the most successful merchunts of every
town, large or small, are the
heaviest advertisers? If it doesn't pay
to advertise, why do the
heaviest business firms in the world
annually spend millions that
way ? Is if because they wartt to donate
those millions of dollars to
the newspaper and magazine publishers,
or
because they
don't know
as much as
The short-sighted merchant who
says money spent in adver
tising is thrown away, or is
donated to the men to whom
it is paid? They advertise
for the same reason that
they buy at wholesale and
sell at retail because there
is money in it. Advertising
may not pay to
day or
to-morrow, but
sooner or later it is sure to
bring a stream of the "dollars of our dad
dies" to the merchant who
uses printer's
INK. These
are facts that
cannot be denied, and you
are perhaps one of those who are reaping
the profits of advertising,
but here's a
word
In your ear: Thore are a whole lot of
butichgrnss farmers who must trade
somewhere; perhaps they trade
with your neiglibor. They read the
lliDOKT, and if you had nn ad
but you see the point, don't you?
DON'T BE A CLAM.
