VVr have often wondered, if lt eu.st ;
them Kouiutliing in reid money, hew |
many real prohibition advocates there
I
v.?iilii lu- In this country; or. If In
stead of jual working their bazoos, or1
talking, shouting and tearing their'
shirts for thc betterment and uplift
of the community in which they liv
ed, all thone fellows had lo pay home-1
thing for the privilege, to wliut extent
would titelt enthusiasm run.
And ulong tills linc we recall u '
??tory that will perhaps not be amiss. '
A great preacher wau closing a cam-j
p.'ilgn once for missionaries to KO to
foreign fields. He bad pictured the!
great need of workers, and. to gol
TO lite crtl.x of thc story, mad - a mas-'
terful plea for volunteers. The ef
fort seemed fruitless, however, until
tito very lasl minute, when thc miff*-1
brier's daughter, a beautiful young
/!rl Just out of school and with thc
ldc om of youth in her eyes and j
checke, walked steadily up to tit?; ?
iron- and said: "Father, I'll go." |
"Oh. my ('od! daughter, I didn't!
mean yon!"
Anti that's thc way lt ls willi a great
meany of us. We are strong advo
cates of reform and We believe in
most anything for the betterment ai
the (on.munily so long as somebody
UH? is paying for it or doing the
work. Bvcr think about it?
!!ov; much dcos il COHI you in real:
money lo be a prohibitionist?
The newspapers, mayl; ., look at '
the'jc thing* from " different angle.!
j but little us you may think about lt.
tho press of this country (and it is al
I ways In the forefront when graft In i
'public offices and misappropriation of.
public funds arc brought to the alton-1
lion of the public; when suloons and !
rumbling dens are driven out of thc
I community, and various other evils,
put on the blink) always bas to pay-}
is some way or otber-good money!
for the privilege.
Toko for lnstunce the stand the An-j
I demon newspapers have taken in re-1
gurds to whiskey adv.- Using. They
are not carrying a linc moro of local I
advertising since they cut it out. than
they did before. Some few people J
have comtnend?d them for passing lt
up, lt ls true, but other than ithe In
visible, Intangible "reward that comes
for duty well done." with which the
public cortnlnly has. nothing .whatever
to do, wc doubt seriously whether
they oro one blt better off. or are ap
preciated any more than they wen
when they were putting before tho
men and boys cf tho community every
day "four quarts of pure old so and so
express prepaid for $2.98."
Hut overy few days wc re?oive- from
some advertising agency a letter
ucn'cth!ag like thc following, which
carno to'thia olilcc yesterday?
- "We afc placing tliovdsnd? of col
lars wottli of Usiner advertising,
che eli with order, and wondered It
sume would bc acceptable (o you, and |
i rust Hint we hear ft om you by re
turn mull."
And lhat ls not all. Tltesc santo
newspapers have resolved within tho
lust few duyn from. one of tho most
reliable agencies in 'The country a let
ter reading as follows: .
"V/o will bo in position soon to
need you some advertising, solid plate,
(no. typesetting). This ls mail order
advertising ard before sending you
Ibo order we want to know that you
accept'matt order advertising. Thc
copy is high class lu character."
NEWBI'AyERS EMU A Hilt A HMM)
' Newspaper publishers throughout
ho country are today facing one of
thc most embarrassing situations with
which they have -been confronted
since the Civil War. Not only have
j price.; of materials used in the getting
j out of ? newspaper advanced from 10
I to SO percent in price, but a famine
! in Some lines of supplies is Impeud
? lng. If prices of t tieso materials con
j timm .to advance, nccempsi?ed hy
[ diminishing supply, therein no telling
I n-hct thc result will be. As a rule,
[newspaper publishers arc tho last
'class pf business mea to give vent to
tho'r troubles,' pr cf erin g to keep their
woe? td themselves and present at all
ipr tea a pleasing front.'
The layman perhaps will be inter;'
sated in. details: of the situation now
I a-in g tho newspaper bus I neus, and
fe - that tesson a few Instances of the
hardships wo aro up ?galait will be
cited, inthe matter ot paper Btoik'
alone, there has been a very ; sharp TUT
yance ia prices' Itt the pa?t thirty,
days. A carload ot paper , stock por
chaSed today would cost approximate
ly $210 more, than the same cost a
month ago. A- carload of newspaper
lasts this paper about eight or tor.
weeks. This representa an Increase
in operating expense ot something
lise ?120 a month in one Une per
month alone. 'rj
Newspaper publia! io rs are indeed
hard blt by var conditions in many
Vh ' *r: ' . ' .' . '
Uber Heins of kuppllcs besides that
ol paper stork, luke, owing io the ad-j
vance in thc cost of acids and dyes.
have increased in ? OKI from ;;0i* lo !
i
'{.Oeil percent. Type, owing to the in-j
crease in th" .ort of lead, tin and'
antimony, hus taken rapid ?irides up-]
ward. Rubber and felt blankets used!
on the rollers of.the press add their
quote of increased expenses under I
which the daily newspaper is pub
lished.
The situation with publishers!
abroad, particularly in England, I -
more serious. Last month one of Lon-,
don's greatest newspapers-Ute Daily i
Standard-was forced to suspend pub
lication on ac count of shortage lu pa
per stock in that country. Thc read
er may wish to know what ls rcpor.-j
sink? for thc advance in the cost of
these material?, lt is because certain
supplie:! used in thc manufa< turc of
rev. paper stock arc decreased by war
conditions, nari la ?cine cases have
been practically shut off. Chemicals
uacd la bleaching paper produced by
sulphuric acid anti alum are being
consumed by manufacturers of explo
sives. Au embargo uu exportation of
wood pulp from Norway and Sweden j
has been declared, wbils Canada shut
oh cccesR lo lier vast resources sev
ero! months r.-;o.
The situai ion is indeed a serious
one. Mn ny other businesses are suf
fering ono way 01 another on ac
count of war conditions, but m.viy of
them ?lave been aldo to protect them
selves by Increasing 1 he retail price j
cf thc commodities lu which ithey deal.
For example, as is generally known,
prices of many kinds of drugs have
soared skyward. Hut druggets are
able to protest themselves, in a meas
ure; by charging more for those par
ticular drugs than they used to. Dut
the newspaper has not advanced au
set thc prices on its commodities-tm
space, which ls it:; principal stock In
trade, and Its subscription price
these remulnlng thc ramo. How much
lunger they are going to bc able to
keep thia up. there's no telllnr.
