Not a grocer in the town is ad vertising at tho present time, and but a few other dealers are, Riiys the Daily Heview. Tlte mail order houses never let up. - The Review was in receiptor a proposition from a Kansas City concern Iat week and another for a $120 "ad" per year fro in a St. Louis house this morning. We have repeatedly turned down Chicago concerns that carue in competition -with our home peo ple, nave declined business from neighboring towns n either side and have always stood for home. Hut a single institution or a single individual can not make a town. No institution can exist without supiMirt. If this support js not given by home patrons it must either get it from other sources or quit Ilich Hill and go elsewhere to engage in business. This town has a daily and two weekly newspapers t hat have al ways Mood for Rich Hill the Review nnd Tribune - and every business in;iu should carry soini' kind of advertisement in each of theso papers the year round. The prospects far the town are now better than they have been for years, but the prosperity outlook for the newspapers is not. The price uf everything they fonsuine is higher than in many years, while their output from furco of outside competition Is lower. The Review has supplied work to an avemgoof a dozen persons for 20 years -a third of them heads of families. In has pat ronized it's homo town in every thing thut coiTtd be had here, and has put up several thousand dollars lor local enterprises, not to mention charitable projects. It ha helped lo build, seul and su.sUin every cliurcli aud school in Hie Uitvu and surrounding country, and in the lneud ol every legitimate institution and every decent man, woman aud child in the town. It believes all its ieupie are lneuuiy toward it but MMitiiueutal friendship doewu't pay bills. Neither will the mere subscription price of a paper go very lar toward it. It takes adtvriiii.g find the Rich Hill papers are ail sburl on that. If the merchant will .advertise right, and keep everlastingly at it, it will pay him. And 11 is the only way to combat tUo mail order houses.

By pushing this matter as the other fellows do, they could soon over come the outsider. Rut unless they do something. of this sort, the mail order hobgoblin will eventually get 'em. I In conclusion, gentlemen, the Review wants more business. It wants you to get more business. It will help you to get it, if you'll give it a chance. It proceeds on the plan that if it can help you, it will help itself in the long run. Advertise in the Review or if you can find a better, advertise in the other - but advertise. What is said by the Review in the above applies with equal force to the Thibcnk. Everybody knows that the mail order houses are persistant advertisers and that they .quote -prices and dial lenge comparison. They do not stop at one plan of advertising but use all methods and always to the help of the printers of the community where they live or carry on their business. They never stop when times are dull but in their liesure moments plan when, where and how best to teach other customers. In the.se later days, a -town '-without a newspaper is decidedly behind the times. The better the town, the better the newspaper. There is no mouthpiece like a well-conducted newspaer. It speaks by the column forthorpUceof its pub licaliuu aud its well tilled pages of advertising spreads tho gospel of enterprise to all the regions roundabout. The mail order houses know this and profit by their knowledge. To every mer chant and business man in Rich llul, we suggest that you learn wisdom from your eueinies and heed the suggestions of your best friends. The Richmond Missourian is right when it says: "The mer chants of a town are known just iu the degree they make them selves known."

Speaker Cannon dropped into Washington this week, and his coming revised talk of tariff re vision, not that the venerable Speaker is a tariff revinionist by any means, but simply because he is the one man who can block revision if he chooses even against the will of the President, and there is considerable specul ation as to whether he may or may not choose. Uncle Joseph is avowedly against any tariff tinkering. His friends say this is a conviction with him. Ilia enemies, on the other hand say that it is a matter of policy and the speaker thinks he will stand a better show for campaign con tributions from the big tnonied interests of New York in case of his nomination for the Presidency if he sets his - f.iri f"in against any tinkering with the tariff. In one respect at least, he has the reasonable side of the argument. He says that the tariff cannot be touched at all without going through the whole list and doing something to every schedule. This is quite true. The manufacturing interests of the north, the farming interests all over the country, the steel makers of Pennsylvania and Ohio, and the cotton men both north and south will all want con sideration. Each one thinks the tariff can be arranged for his own locality and tho rest of the country let alone, but when everyone thinks this, it is plain to see that it means tariff doctor ing for all sections of the coun try. The rearrangement of all the schedules will be a whole session's job. It is said that the President believes revision is necessary and is in sight, and that ha has advised Speaker Can non that he had better prepare fore it. Perhaps even a majority of tho Republican party feel the same way. But it is doubtful if more than a start will be made at the coming session. A com mittee may be appointed to sit during the recess and take testi. mony, but the practical politi cians are against touching the tariff on the eve of an election mms tl V7"7 : " ' I'rooaoie that th ',U h b'8 "d T f WtJ th da t,,!

Arrangements are being made as rapidly as possible for the Presidents summer vacation, furniture and ataiionary are be shipped from tho White House for the temporary executive ofticcs over tho corner crocerv ! storu in Oyster Uay.

The present program is to atay two montlis, and perhaps longer, and it has been announced firmly and sternly that there will bo few visitors at Sagamore IlilL and those only personal frieuvis of the family. The result probably will bo as usual, political and business callers every day and just about as mueh official work transacted as though tne Presi dent were in "Washington. Hut ha will have at least the beuefit of a change of air and actne. Ttii is thj beginuir.g of the two year tour of duty for tha troop la tho Philippine, The lour formerly wei thrc-s yitrt, but it had Wen. reducrd in the in trust of the health of both officers and men. The insurrec tion as snch is over and . there is but little organised fighting. But there is always trouble with the more or less well organized ban dits even in Luzon and nickering of fighting throughout the remote islands. The result is that the officers now going out are taking the advice of those coming home and preparing for emergencies. This preparation nsuallj consists in buying light gun that will shoot soft 'nosed bullets. Of couse. this is against the rules of wai and contrary to the regula tions. But the fact is that the army six shooter is a heavy affair and a light pistol while it will kill eventually, will not stop the rush of a fanatical Moro or Tacalo. Therefore the most of the out going officers are arming them selves quite unofficially with very light guns that carry a mnsh- roon bullet, the sort that make a i bole the size of a lead pencil1 where they . go in and a hole the site of a football where they come out The enlisted men, of course, cannot indulge in th-i luxury of special arms, and! have to rely on the small bore bpringneld with the steel jacket ed bullet. But as far back as the Cuban campaign the men learned that if you scratch the nose of a steel coated bullet with a knife, it will mushroom just as effectively as though it were in tended to act that way, and it is said that there are few of the old enlisted men who do not carry a special dip of scratched car tridges for emergencies. These things are just mentioned to show that there are ways of ob-ying the regulations and evading them at the same time. Also there are still more things doing in the Philippines than al ways get into the newspapers. Mrs. Laura Howie, Secretary of tho State Library Board in Helena, Mont, is experiencing the practical disadvantages of be ing without the ballot. The At torney General has given as his opinion that she is not legally qualified to hold a state oSice be cause bhe is not a voter. Mrs. Uowie has been secretary of the the board for years and has given satisfaction. Now alio and all the other women serving on state boards find their positions endangered. A test case will be made and taken to the Supreme Court as soon as possible. J. V.
