lag. Spasmodic advertising, biting at
arious advertising falc'ra spring and
spending money on this or that prop
osition simply on the word of some
professional fckiuner who does not
have the welfare of the state or city
at heart, is the '.eriest waste of
money. AH big firms' have a del-art
ment with an experienced mar. at
the head who attends to the advertis
ing. Do tho automobile firms spend
monov on this or that scheme some
grafter presents to them? They do
not Their appropriation for adver
tising is made in advance and it is
known just how it will be expended.
AH big firing have tried it and they
know by experience the haphazzard,
slip-shod methods of advertising will
not bring results.
Why should not the state ot Arizona,
which Is a big corporation, do ad
vertising along legitimate lines. Why
should not each city follow the same
lines and under the direction and with
thc aid of the state bureau which
uliould be established?
In some states laws have been
passed allowing cities to levy a tax
of a certain amount to create an ad
vertizing fund. This does away with
ibe subscription paper and it puts the
burden of the cost of the advertising
on all tho people who are benefited.
Tho systematic advertising of the
state is a matter that should be taken
up by every commercial organisation
in thc state and it should be investi
gated and pushed to a successful owl
A meeting of representatives of tbs
commercial bodies should be called
for this purpose.

AH that Is, or ever was needed to
cut special privilege out of tho larift
system is a majority of the voters plus
an honest desire upon the part of the
president and congress to abolish, at
once wore and forever.

there is to be any widening of its

The hope of the Balkan states for

ambition. Between the two great rivals
for primacy in the southeastern cor

EXTRA SESSION
FOR TARIFF REVISION.
President-Elect Wilson, before leav
ing on his vacation. gav oat a state
ment setting at rest the question ot a
special session of congress next year.
He will call a special session to meet
not later than April 15 for the purpose
of revising the tariff and redeeming
other promises' contained in the Balti
more platform. The statement of the
president-elect, of his intentions as to
the tariff is characteristically sound
and businesslike. He does not believe
it Is necessary to undertake tedious in
vestigations. Ho observes, truly and
dryly, that "every congress has inves
tigated." He might have added that
investigation has been, under repub
lican auspices, 'evasion. The tariff-
commission idea waa nothing-more
than a 'plot mon the part of shifty pol
