csrasmss NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING MAKES MANY FORTUNES Is the Best Method for Trade-Produc- ing Results. I It Is Properly Handled. Duluth Herald: The man who has something to sell wants to sell it as quickly and as profitably as possible; that is what he is in busi- ness for. The old way was to put the stuff in a store and wait for people to come and buy it. The new way is to push its sale by adver- tising. Wholesalers and jobbers push their sales by employing com- mercial travelers to visit dealers, but the retailer has that system beaten to a pulp. He can put an advertise ment in a newspaper, and if it is the proper kind of an “ad” and his advertising system is up-to-date and effective, he can bring his goods to the attention of thousands while the commercial traveler sees one. Advertising, these days is a good deal of a science. Itemploys experts and these experts have attained the highest degree of skill in the art of salesmanship through pudlicity. Those whose business does not warrant the employmeat of experts take borrowed advantage of the originality and ingenity of experts and build their businessup so that itwill warrant the employment of experts of their own. By far the greater part of modern advertising is done through the newspapers. There are other ways— magazines, billboards, hand bills, etc.,—but the magazines reach a few while the newspapers reach everybody, bill-boards are a public nuisance and annoy more than they attract while handbills and circulars are thrown away without being read. The newspapers goes into the homes and in the case of the evening papers, are read thoroughly by all members of the family at a time when there is ample leisure. The newspaper is the greatest adver- tising medium, and the evening newspaper isthe best newspaper to advertise in. Many merchants spend fortunes each and every vear in advertising. For nstance, Gimball Bros., owning a Philadelphia department store, spend $600,000 a year, or $2,000 a day, in newspaper advertising. They do not spend a fortune in a week and rest upon their oars thinking that their trade will continue as a result of this publicity; but they spend every day in advertising, and the trade that advertising built up, ad- vertising maintains and increases. There are several well known stories of commodities that systema- ticand ingenious advertising has built up a large sale for, and whose sale slumped immediately upon the suspension of advertising, an action taken upon the mistaken assumption that the business was established and a demand created that would insure permanent prosperity. In every casethese commodities dropped out of sight, and it was harder to build up the trade a second time than it was the first time. The obvious moral of this is that one of the secrets of successful advertising is keeping everlastingly at it. When the articles offered for sale has merit and when the advertising is artfully and continuously done, money put into publicity affords returns upon the investment that are possible in no other form of invest- ment. The more you put in, the more you get back. Many of the largest fortunes of the country, below the Rockfeller rank, have been built up purely by advertising. The articles whose sales made these fortunes wouldn’t have supported a peanut stand, good though they were without advertising. Notice to Our Costomers.

Body of Paul Sullivan Buried. The postmorten examination held yesterday after noon by Coroner Marcum over the body of Paul Sullivan, who was found dead in his pop-corn stand Wednesday morn- ing, developed the fact that Mr. Sullivan had died from eudorarditis and inflamation of the inside of the heart, probably caused by rheuma- tism. The telegrams which were sent to Necedah, Barren and Chippewa Falls, Wis. in an endeavor to locate “Not there.” A search of Sullivan’s stand and clothes showed that he had about $70 in cash as well as a fair sized stock. A special administrator will he appointed to take charge of Sullivan’s affairs. Funeral services were held this afternoon and the body laid to rest in Greenwood cemetery. Dr. Sperry's Lecture Good. Dr. Lyman P. Sperry, who came here in the interest of the Bemidji Summer school, gave a very interest- ing lecture at the Methodist church last evening. Dr. Sperry lectured on the topie, “Travel” bringing out the ided that we should devote more of our time in the educational line by traveling. He also demonstrated that by a little sacrifice nearly everyone could do some traveling each year. ‘This morning Dr. Sperry gave his lecture and talk on Physiology and Hygine, to the teachers in attendence at the summer school. All those fortunate enough to hear him at one or both of these lectures pronounce Dr. Sperry among the best lecturers they have heard. Dr. Sperry left on the afternoon train for Bagley and will speak at that place tonight. Red Men Meet Tonight. All members of the Red Men lodge are requested to meet at Eagles Hall at 8 o’clock. C. Christenson, Sachem. GOVERNOR R0B T B. GLENN Beconds the Nomination of Mr. Bryan at the Democratic National Convention. Governor Robert B. Glenn, of North Carolina, seconded the nomination of Mr. Bryan for president. After speak- ing of conditions in the south and ar- raigning the Republican party in unmeasured terms, he said, in part: “North Carolina has no candidate for president on the Democratic na- tional ticket, but 1 arise in the name of my state to wost earnestly second the nomination of that profound and e statesman, brilliant and persuasive orator, patriotic and law- abiding citizen, and true and humble christinn gentleman, William Jennings Bryan, of Nebraska. But I hear some say it will never do to nominate Mr. Bryan, for he is narrow inehis views, socialistic in his principles, contractea in his ideas of statesmanship, and has twice been defeated for the presidency, and, therefore, cannot, as our leader, command the votes of the people and lead us to victory in November. Let us faithfully analyze these charges, and, if true, let us demand a new champion of our rights; but if false, let us rally still more determlnedly under his standard, and compel a rec- ognition of his policies, “Mr. Bryan stands for the widest, broadest, most progressive and sound- est principles of Jeffersonian Democ- racy; so Democracy must be shallow, else Bryan is intensely profound. If to be narrow is to stand for ‘a gov- ernment of the people, by the people, and for the people, glving ‘equal rights to all and special privileges to none,” then Mr. Bryan is narrow, for he believes in protecting the poorest, humblest creature, “If it Is socialism to seek to destroy trusts, to prevent the rich from crush- ing out all competition by the weak, and allowing no individual or corpor- ation, by combination, to control or monopolize the entire business in any one commodity, then Mr. Bryan Is a socialist; for with no uncertain voice, in the name of Democracy, he has de- manded that, while every business shall be amply protected and en- couraged in the enjoyment of all its privileges, it must and shall not lay the weight of its finger on any smaller concern or individual to elther destroy or lessen its producing power, else it, too, shall be controlled, even though it be necessary to blot out its existence. “If it is to be contracted to belleve in state’s rights in its widest sense, giving the state government absolute control of all its own affairs and for- bidding Federal interference, only al- lowing such authority to be exercised in cases where state courts can glve no adequate relief, then Mr. Bryan has a contracted mind, for he advo- cates a state controlling its own affairs, free from Federal court injunc- tion and habeas corpus, only granting the right of a centralized court power fn cases where no remedy can be offered by the state, as in the matter of the prevention of monopoly, the regulation of interstate commerce and the preservation of interstate re- sources. “It is true that the Democratic party has twice placed its banner in Mr. Bryan’s hands, and it is likewise true that he did not carry it to vie- tory, but, as he said of himself, he kept the fajth and returned that ban- ner to us four years ago unstained and unsullied, and today, though twice de- feated, has arisen stronger and grander than before, and is remem- bered and beloved, while his traducers have ‘long been forgotten. The very fact that from every section comes the cry, ‘Bryan! Give us Bryan! shows he is not dead, but still lives deep in the affectionate hearts of a grateful people, who are more determined than ever to nominate and elect him presi- dent of the nation. “And now, once more voicing the wishes of the nation, as well as my own state, that first had the honor of suggesting him for president, in 1896, and has remained loyal to him ever since, I again second and urge the nomination of this peerless, brainy, towering, intellectual giant and states- man, beloved at home and honored and respected abroad, the great Commoner any relatives were returned marked of the world—Willlam Jennings Bryan, af Nohragka : = 2 LABORANDRALROAS = WOULD MODIFY INJUNCTIONS Recommends Physical Valuation of Railroads as a Basis for Efficient Regulation of Rates by Commerce Commission. Denver, July 10.—Following is the full and correct text of the injunction plank as adopted by the sub-com- mittee of the committee on resolu- tions: . “The courts of justice are the bul- wark of our liberties and we yield to none. in our purpose to maintain their dignity. Our party has given to the bench a long line of distinguished fudges, who have added to the respect and confidence in which this depart- ment must be jealously maintained. We resent the dttempt of the Repub- lican party to raise a false issue re- specting the judiciary. It is an un- Just reflection upon a great body of our citizens to assume that they lack respect for the courts. “It is the function of the courts to interpret the laws which the people create and if the laws appear to work economic, social or political injustice it 1s our duty to change them. “The only basis upon which the in- tegrity of our courts can stand is that of unswerving justice and protection of life, personal liberty and property. If judicial processes may be abused we should guard them against abuse. “Experience has proven the neces- sity of a modification of the present law relating to injunctions and we reiterate the pledge of our national platforms of 1896 and 1904 in favor of the measure which passed the United States senate in 1896, but which a Republican congress has ever since refused to enact; relating to com- tempts in federal courts and providing for trial by jury in cases of indirect contempt. Rigid Impartiallty Demanded. “Questions of judicial practice have arisen, especially in connection with industrial disputes. We demand that the parties to all judicial proceedings should be treated with rigid impartial- ity and that injunctions should not be {ssued in any cases in which injunc- tions would not issue if no industrial dispute were involved. “The expanding organization of in- dustry makes it essential that there sheuld be no abridgment of the right of wage earners and producers to or- ganize for the protection of wages and the improvement of labor conditions to the end that such labor organiza- tlons and their members should not be regarded as {llegal combinations in restraint of trade. “We favor. the eight-hour day on all government work. . “We pledge the Democratic party to the enactment of a law by congress, as far as the federal jurisdiction ex- tends, for a general employers’ liabil: ity act covering injury to body or loss of life of employes. “We pledge the Democratic party to the enactment of a law creating a de- partment of labor, represented sep- arately in the president’s cabinet, which department shall include the subjeot of mines and miring.” The rallroad plank, &s adopted by the full committee, is as follows: Plank Relating to Railroads. “We assert the right of congress to exercise complete control over inter- state commerce and the right of each state to exercise just as complete con- trol over commerce within its borders. “We demand such enlargement of the powers of the interstate commerce commission as may be necessary to enable it to protect persons and places from discrimination and extortion-and to compel the railroads to perform their duties as common carriers. “We favor the eficient supervision and rate regulation of railroads en- gaged in interstate commerce. To this end we recommend the physical val- nation of the railroads by the inter- state commerce commission, such val- uation to take into consideration the original cost of construction and all elements of value that will render the valuation made fair and just. We fa- vor such legislation as will prohibit the railroads from engaging in busi- ness which brings them into competi- tion with their shippers, also legisla- tion which will assure such reduction in transportation rates as conditions will permit, care being taken to avoid reduction that would compel a reduc- tion of wages, prevent adequate serv- ice or do injustice to legitimate invest- ments, “We heartily approve the laws pro- hibiting the pass and the rebate and we favor any further necessary legls- fation to restrain, correct and prevent such abuses.” The last plank to be acted upon by the committee was the demanding of a system for the guarantee of depos- its in national banks; an alternative provision was inserted recommending the establshment of postal savings banks in the event that the bank guar- antee provision is not carried into sffect. Guffey’s Successor Chosen. Denver, July 10.—The Pennsylvania delegation, at a caucus in the conven- tion hall, elected James Kerr of Clear- field national committeeman. L. Me- Questin was elected chairman. Forty- one and & half votes were represented, the Guffey delegates refusing to attend the meeting. - HEFLIN LAUDS BRYAN Beconds the Nomination of the Nebras ka Statesman for High Office of President. The Hon. J. T. Heflin, seconding the nomination of Mr. Bryan, said in part: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen ~of the Convention—I congratulate the party and the country upon the out- look for Democratic victory in Novem- ber. In the interest of constitutiona) differences ana today we present a solid front to the enemles of Democ- Tacy. “We have met here to renew our al- the principles of the Democratic par- ty—to write a platform and to name as our standard bearer the next pres- Tdent of the United States. The coun- try is tired of the Republican party. "Under that party’s management the federal government has become the handy instrument of predatory ‘wealth. The rights and liberties of the masses are no longer regarded or respected by the Republican party. “Mr. Chairman, trusts have flour- ished . unrestrictedly and there are more among us now than when Mr. Chandler predicted what would come if they were permitted to flourish un- restrictedly. His prediction has come true, and trusts have destroyed com- petition as a business principle and they are exerting a powerful and cor- rupting influence in politics and today the soul of individualism cries out from every quarter of the republic, ‘My country, how long will this form of tyranny be permitted to exist? “The cause of Democracy is the cause of the people and to the Demo- cratic party the people of America are looking for deliverance from the Re- publican evils that do now surely af- flict us. I‘'rise to second the nomina- tion of a man who is, and has been for a long time, the idol of the Democratic masses. “He is the intellectual giant of the United States. He is less misun- derstood and more misrepresented than any other statesman in our history. So frank and fair and fearless that he cannot be misunderstood—so true is he and so uncompromisingly just that his political opponents and the great trust controlled dailes dare not play fair or fight him in the open. Statesmen, world diplomats and kings have paid him tribute. “Mr. Chairman, we are told in the Holy Writ that King Darius sought to make Daniel chief of the presidents in his kingdom because ‘an excellent spir- it was in him.” Democracy's able and fearless leader, in whose manly breast dwells an excellent spirlt will, in my judgment, be elected president of the United States. Pampered by no power and pensioned by no class be will break down the trust idols in the tem- ple of liberty, just as Daniel of ola broke the gildel images of Babylonish idolatry. And above the panic-stricken genius of business will be heard the hum of wheels and the voice of a healthy industry. Today, when the whole country is looking for a man to stretch forth the healing rod as did Aaron of old to give the land deliver- ance, William Jennings Bryan sur- rounded by the hosts of Democracy re- sembles a mighty cliff emerging from the sea. The waves of calumny have beat against it, the winds of hate have howled around its massive form; the lightning bolts of sarcasm have de- scended upon its brow and the clouds of misunderstanding have hung round its splendid head; but look! the waves are calm, the winds are hushed, the sky is clear; the clouds are gone, and lo! the rock is there, supreme and in- destructible.

W. Powers, of Salt Lake City, seconded the nomination of Mr. Bryan. He said, in part: “Mr. Chairman: TFew sovereigns have greater power than the president of the United States. By reason of our constitution, our chief magistrate ‘wields a power but few comprehend. He moulds our laws and controls our policy. This office is one requiring the loftiest statesmanship and the severest self-abnegation, The office should be filled by a man so clese to the people that he can hear their heart-beats and understand the longings that throb with the pulsations of their earnest life. “Deaf to the voice of flattery, his ear should be quick to discern the moan of distress from the lips of toll. Blind to the dazzling jewels of wealth and power, his eyes should see that our strength and influence depends upon the well-being of the millions who fight the unending battle of existence. Be- lieving in our institutions, his motto should be ‘America for Americans.’ He should declare that upon this continem ‘we have the right to legislate and to advance internal improvements and to protect the property we create without let or hindrance from abroad. Eec should believe in the Monroe doctrine and be ready to defend it. He should recognize that wherever our flag is raised over our own territory that it is raised by virtue of the constitution and that no discriminating taxatior can be permitted, even though de- manded by the concentrated power of unlimited capital. He should scorn all entangling alilances abroad and resent all foreign interference with the affairs of this continent. “Such a president must come from the ranks of the people. Such a president must of necessity come from the Democratic party whose principles were erystalized from in- nate longings in the human heart for liberty. Such a presidnt was nom- inated at Chicago in 1896, when the Democracy of Jefferson was rein- carnated and the roar of human ac- <laim that greeted his name swept out of the convention hall like a tidal wave of hope and bore upon its crest the suffrage of 6,000,000 of unbought votérs who named him as their choce. “He rallied a well-nigh hopeless party and so well did he endow it with his lofty courage that it met defeat without faltering and again proudly holds -his name-aloft as a beacon of promise. He is today once more the choice of the Democratic party for president: He is today the choice of the common people for president and in their name and in the name of the state of Utah, I second the nomination of William J, Bryan.” legiance to, and proclaim our faith in 4 ‘tions and at times imperil the advance DUNNNAVES BRI Places Nebraska Man in Nomina= tion for President at Denver Convention. MANDATE OF THE DEMOCRACY pualker Says He Obeys That Com- mand When He Presents the Nawe of William Jen« 3 nings Bryan. Ignatius J. Dunn, the well known Omaha lawyer, placed William Jen- nings Bryan in nomination for presi- dent at the Democratic national con- vention. Mr. Dunn said: “Mr. Chairman, Gentlemen of the Convention—Crises arise in the life of nations which endanger their institu- of civilization. Every people that has left its impress upon history has faced such crises. In most instances ‘where grave dangers have threatened the safety of the state some great char- acter, some master mind, has been found, produced, as it were, by the conditions themselves, with capacity to direct aright the energies of the peo- ple. “This was true of the ancient world. It has been true of the modern world. It is true of this republic. We have such a crisis to meet today. The fa- vor seeking corporations have gradual- ly strengthened their hold upon the government until they now menace popular institutions, The question is ‘whether this government shall be re- stored to the control of the people and be administered in the interest of all or whether it shall remain an instru- ment in the hands of the few for levy- ing tribute upon all the rest. “In his special message to congress last winter President Roosevelt de- clared substantially that certain wealthy men who have become enor- mously rich by opposing the wage- earner, defrauding the public and prac- ticing all forms of iniquity have banded together and by the unlimited use of money endeavored to secure freedom from restraint and to over- throw and discredit all who honestly administer the law; that the methods by which these men have acquired their great fortunes can only be justi- fied by a system of morality that would permit every form of criminali- ty, every form of violence, corruption and fraud. “For many years, and especially dur- ing the last twelve years, these very men have been in control of the Re- publican party. They have financed every campaign of that party for a quarter of a century. These explolters of the people, whom the president has so scathingly denounced, have given their enthusiastic support to the Re- publican candidates and policies. They laid their hands upon the trust funds of insurance companies and other cor- porations and turned the plunder over to the Republican committee. The money thus filehed from the innocent and helpless to purchase Republican victory has not been repaid. “And where do we find these men to- day? Where are the ‘swollen for- tunes’ of which we have heard so much? Just where we would expect to find them—supporting the Repub- lican ticket and furnishing the sinews of war for the Republican committee as usual. “The platform adopted by the late convention shows what the Republican party in truth represents. In framing the platform every genuine reform which the pr dent has advocated was scorned and repudiated. The Wiscon- sin delegation asked that one or two reform planks be placed in the plat- form and for its pains was denounced as Democratic. The convention by a vote of 8 to 1 refused to approve these policies which the president for four years has been urging upon his party. The mask of hypocrisy has been torn from the face of those who pretend to favor the reforms advocated by the president and it is now apparent why the ‘system’ admires Taft and hates the senator from Wisconsin. When compelled to choose between an ap- peal to the conscience of the nation in defense of its platform and candidates, on the one hand, and the millions that the special interests may be depended upon to contribute on the other, that convention rejected the people and continued its alliance with Mammon. “If the charges made by the presi- dent are true, and they are true, we are indeed face to face with a situa- tion as grave as any in our history. How shall it be met? The good sense, patriotism and united action of the peo- ple alone can remedy present evils. “To wage a successful fight we must have a leader. The Republican party, dominated Dby the seek: privileges, cannot fur Re- publicans who really desire reform are powerless, The efforts of the presi- dent have been futile, “The Democratic party must furnish the leader which present conditions de- mand, and he must be 2 man known to be free from the influences that con- trol the Republican party. He must be a man of superior intellect, sound Judgment, positive convictions and moral courage—one who will meet the forces of plutocracy with the naked sword of truth, one who knows no surrender. ‘e must have a genius for statecraft. He must be a man of wide experience in public affairs. He must have ability to formulate policies and courage to defend them. But, above all, he must have faith in the people. He must not only believe in the right of the people to govern, Lut in thelr capacity to do so, and he must be a man whom the people know and trust. “The Democratic party has many distinguished men who might be chosen as our standard bearer, but it has one man whom above all others possesses the necessary qualifications and is eminently fitted for this lead- ership. He is a man whose nomina- tion will leave no doubt as to where onr party stands on every public ques- tion. His genius for statecraft Is shown by the constructive work he has done in proposing reforms and by the positlon. ~But we Ay Fo Turthe “A few monthg ago he visited the principal nations of the world. He came in contact nvith the leading minds of Christendom, and the world abroad recognized his greatness and paid him that' tribute justly due to men of high attainments. In the most distinguished peace conference that has assembled in recent years he pro- posed a plan which, if adopted, would prove more effective than any arbitra- tion treaty that has yet been made, and by his influence he secured its approval by’the representatives of the twenty-six leading nations there as- sembled. 5 “Is he thoroughly informed regard- ing the issues of this campaign? Read his speeches and his writings, which for nearly twenty years have been a part of the political literature of the nation. Is he sincere, brave and de- termined? Even his political op- ponents now admit that he is. I have had a close personal and political ac quaintance avith this man, whose name Nebraska presents, since he en- tered political 1life. I can testify from observation as to his political conduct before he was known to fame. He was honest, brave and unyielding then. He is honest, brave and un- ylelding now. Honesty is inherent in him. He was an honest lawyer before he entered politics, he was honest ir his political methods before his states- manship was recognized by the nation, and he has been honest throughout his political career. “His convictions have been his political creed. He has impressed these convictions upon others not by dictation, but by arguments addressed to the judgement and the conscience. Believing in the ultimate triumph of the right, he has never examined ques- tions from the standpoint of expedi- ency. He has never inquired whether a political principle was popular. It has been sufficient for him to believe that it was right. He has been a con- sistent champion of the reserved rights of the states. He favored the election of senators by direct vote before the house of representatives ever acted favorably upon the subject. He championed tariff reform when the west was the hotbed of protection. He favored an income tax before the income tax law was written. He at- tacked the trusts when Republican Teaders were denying that any trusts existed. He advocated railroad regu- lation Dbefore the crusade against re- bates and discrimination began. He has always been the friend of labor and was among the first to urge con- ciliation between labor and capital. He began to oppose government by Injunction more than a decade ago. He announced his opposition to im- perialism before any other man of prominence had expressed himself on the subject and without waiting to see whether it would be popular. “When a Wall street panie burst upon us a few months ago lic promptly proposed as a remedy the guarantee of bank deposits, and so popular has this plan Decome that it is today a national issue and supported by the masses of the people. He has long advocated legislation which will secure publicity as to campaign contributions. He believes in peace, in universal Christian peace. He believes the destiny of nations should be deter- mined not by wars, but by applying the prinefples of justice and humanity. Though these principles have mot with uncompromising opposition from the special interests, he has remained true to the cause of the people. With clear vision and with unfaltering trust, seeing and knowing the truth, he has never lost faith in its final vietory. “Through years of unparalleled political warfare, his loyality to his ideals and to his fellow men has been abundantly shown. His refusal to surrender his convictions, though sub- jected to abuse, denunciation and vin- dictive opposition such as few publie men in all history have been compelled to withstand, is ample proof of shis superb courage. His career proves that successful leadership Is deter- mined by the success or failure of great principles rather than by elec- tion to high office. “We have met to plan the eampaign and to commission the commander un- der whom the masses will enlist. We are not here in response to the voice of expediency. Neither political bosses nor corporate masters sent us here. We are here at the summons of the rank and file of that political organi- zation which is the special defender of the right of the common people. We are here representing all that Is best in the traditions of our party. We feel again the spirit that animated the Democracy in the days of Jefferson and TJackson. The voters have spoken, and we assemble to give expression of their will.
