THE REAL ISSUE
I IK history of KuglmuHs the ohl story of privilege
stvivinir to perpetuate itself.
For centuries tho struggle was tho orown vorsus tho
bnvons. "When tho barons liad killod thoinsolvos off fight
ing for the orown, the orown evented a new baronage, and
it "became the orown versus parliament, which emerged
triumphant when Charles the First fell.
The restoration restored privilege, but the orown never
regained its prestige and lost its remaining power in the
revolution of U70 when "William of Orange was oalled to
the throne to replaee the banished .lames the Second.
Since tho time of the groat Dutchman, the power of tho
kingship has atrophied. No king has mixed in party af
fairs and tried to dominate polities without disastrous
results to himself and the nation. George the Third alone
persisted in it. And now oomes another Ueorge repeating
the performance. To the king's meddling is duo the mud
dle of home rule, the reinstatement of disloyal officers and
the crisis which is likely to wreck the Liberal coalition.
' For centuries England has boon exploited for the ben
efit of tho all-powerful classes. IFor farm lands have boon
withdrawn from agriculture to make hunting grounds for
the nobility. Along with a brigade of peel's, she has pro
duced an army of pnupors. The real needs of the people
seem comprehended alone by Lloyd George, the greatest
constructive statesman of the day.
"Ulster is simply the excuse for a rallying point for
privilege. The attack on the landed interests, on the
llouse of Lords, the curtailment of aristocracy's power is
the real issue. Home rule is, of course, obnoxious to privi
lege, but the cause of Ulster would not cause king and
army to intercede, were it not that the citadel of privilege
itself is assailed along the line.
' The British people are ultra-conservative and full of
religious bigotry. It may require several veal's more of
effort for the Liberal policies to become successful but
that they will eventually, no one who has studied Knglish
history can doubt.
The death knell of privilege is sounded, but it will be
many a year before the funeral is held though King
George may hasten it.
How Merchants Put Outside
Competitor "On the Run"
This is no theory framed up in
onto city guy's office. Here is
something that aetunlly happened.
That is, here in how one merchant
put his out-of-town competitor on
the run, says T. J. Miline, president
of the National Indoor Game n-oci-ntion.
It happened in n country town in
Ohio. Two carloads of good sta
ple necessities of lift were stand
ing on the side track. They had
been shipped in from Dayton to fill
a demand, supplied by an outside
snlesman who had- happened to be
in town with the projier bunco to
"get nwny with the orders" and
thnt, too, at prices a shade higher
(plus the freight) than tho local
merchant' quotations on the same
articles delivered at the customer's
door. This struck me as rathet
amnzing, and I thereupon investigat
ed the cause of the unfortunate sit
uation. Dropping into the lending grocery
store of tho town, I inquired why
they didn't stop this intrusion into
their trade. "How are you going to
stop itf" growled the "boss." "Ad
vertise!" I retorted. "Advertise?"
replied the grocer, 'why, I'm one of
the bent customers our local paper
has. I think I've had something in
every week for nigh on twenty
years, but I don't see as I realize any
difference. My name is known nny
wlierc within trading distance ol
here, anyhow. Then I lit into Irin.
"Now, my friend, thai is jut it.
Your name is known well enough.
Hut how about your good I You
know there is advertising uud then

The Disloyal Ulsterites
and Ireland's Home Rule
(Sacramento Dee)
I 'or centuries Ireland hag been tho
N'lobo of Nations. With tears for
matins, slio has supped on sorrows.
In all tho world annals, there may
'not bo found another such example
of atics of persecution and of In
famous cruelties, on tho part of tho
governors and pathetic patience on
that of (ho governed.
Tho badge of tho Irish has been
sufferance and patience,
Kngland murdered their priests,
boycotted their religion, throttled
their language, strangled their in
dustries. And yet tho men of that raco
smiled through their tears, and pa
tiently and persistently struggled on
gud on toward tho heights where
Freedom stands glorified.
And now, just when they eco tho
Light, men claiming to bo Irish, Im

behind your name. There is no u
of your paying the local paper for
telling the people what vour name i.
What you want to do is to st niulnle
an interest in your goods. Put out
a 'leader' every week. Make the
price on one particular commodity so
attractive that it will draw custom
ers into your store. Onee in, thej
will see something ele they need,
won't they!
"Feature your 'leader' in the lo
cal paper in a different setting. He
sure now. Make it different. You
know, the copIc never think of
looking for your, old ad, and they
couldn't find it if they did. It is ob
scured by its uniformity nnd utterlj
buried in a crowded mass of other
matter of identical lyic ami general
appearance. And then what's the
use? The people already know yout
name. Therefore, jut for a trial
of six weeks, buy four times tin
space. Leave a good vacant margin
around yourself just for aecentun-,
lion, that is, just to make 'cut se
you. Am above all things, give
prominence to the article uud the
special price. Make it appeal to tin
shopper' frenzy for bargains, tint
they will come with a rush. Nevei
mind your name. They won't rota

special 'leader' will monopolize youi
whole front window. They enn't get
