Advertising Isn't a crucible with which ltrjr bigoted and incapable merchants can turn in-compentency into success but one Into which brains and tenacity and courage can be" poured and changed into dollars. It is only a short cut across the fields not a moving platform.

You can't "get there" without "going some." It's a game hi which the worker flot the shirktr- gets rich. By its measurement every man stands for what he is and for what he dots, not for what he was and what he did. Every day in the advertising world is another day and has to be taken care of with the same energy as its yesterday. The quitter cant survive where the plugger has the ghost of a chance. Advertising doesn't take the place of business talent or business management.

It simply tells what the business is and how it is managed. The snob whose father created and who is content to live on What vas handed to him can't stand up against the man who knows he must build for himself. What makes you think that you are entitled to prosper as well as a competitor who works twice as hard for his prosperity Why should as many people come to your store as patronize a shop that makes an endeavor to get their trade and shows them that it is worth while to come to its doors Why should a newspaper send as many customers yen in half the time it took to fill an establishment which advertised twice as long and paid twice as much for its publicity? This is the day when the best man win after he proves that he is the best man when the best store wins, when it has shown that it is the best store when the best goods win, after they've been demonstrated to be the best goods. If you want the plum you can't get it by ly ing under the tree with your mouth open waiting for it to drop too many other men are willing to climb out on the limb and risk their necks in their eagerness to get it away from you. It is a mans game this advertising just hanging on and tugging and straining all the time to get and keep ahead.

It is the finite expression of the law of competition which sits in blind-folded justice over the markets of the world. Copyright, 1909. by Tribune Company, Cfcietfo.) OF THE DJJ.

June 15. There is a possibility that the Fnglish system of credit letting may solve the problem which confronted the bookmakers following the passage of the Anti-Gambling laws, last week. This cannot te done without risk of arrest, but it will be only in the payment of wagers that any danger will be encountered. Assistant District Attorney Elder today said that, while he is as determined as ever to stamp out the gambling evil at the tracks, still there are some point which cannot le ignored. He wild that to get a clear case against a bettor or a bookmaker there must be a posting of odds, the passing of money or the consummation of some sort of a contract.

Cnles that could be proved, there would be no case against any person 'arrested on a charge of violating the Anti-Betting laws. REVOLT Of SULTAN TROOPS. Four Thousand Wen in Abd-el-Azii's Army Have Mutinied. ftvtm by Special l'C. Tangier, Morocco.

OIKS SURE OF TAFTS 0L1I1TI0I Are Making Preparations for an Impressive Demonstration at Cincinnati.

vr QUESTION CME UP TODAY Demonstration Wilt PUcc When Notification cf bo nina- tkn is Conveyed to' Him. Associated IYe rfcpatch by Special Wires. Chicago. 111., Juno 15. The Ohio continent accept the Taft nomination as such an accomplished fact that thoy are making preparat ions for an impressive demonstration when the notification of his nomination is formally conveyed to him.

The question came up today, when the delegation considered names for the various committees and agreed to ask Charles P. Taft, brother of the Secretary, to serve on the committee of notification. Secretary Taft will go to his Cincinnati borne at the time of the notification, and it was felt to be appropriate that his brother. Charles, should nave the honor representing Ohk when the notification of nomination is conveyed. Mr.

Taft did not share in this view, however, and felt that his relationship to the Sccrrtary should eliminate hrm from' the committee of notification, so the delegation turned to former Governor Herrick. who doubtless will be named on this committee. Absolute hmiony, so far a surface indications went, characterized the caucus of the New York delegation. A resolution was adopted unanimously, on motion of Representative" Parsons, requiting General Stewart L. Woodford, as head of the delegation-at -large, to present the came of Governor Hushes as the choice i the State for President.

There was no mention of the Vice-Presidency, por of any of the New York State men vhoe names have been mentioned in that connection. A movement was sprung among the California delegates today for the nomination of George A. Knight of San Francisco for Vice-1 "resident. Several of the leading Republicans of the state have been urging Mr. Knight to enter the ra, but.

he has not yet given consent, to the us of his name, National Comroittman Hart of Iowa today sent the following telegram to Secretary Taft: "Please discourage talk of Dolliver. It means practically anarchy in Iowa "and almost certainly a Democratic legislature. You ean afford to up.et a strong Republican State." -The New delegation will vore for Fairbanks for Vice-President, if his name-comes before the convention in that connection-, according to an authoritative statement today. If Fairlvanks is not a candidate for Vice-President, the delegation will likely follow the lead of the New York delegation. The sentiment of the-delegar ion is strongly opposed I to an anti-injunction plank in the plat- form.

"After had been held todav by several delegations which have leen charged with -harboring sentiment for the renomiaation of Roosevelt regardless of their instructions for Taft, the pos sibility of a stampede in the convention does not seem so strong as it did last night. The West Virginia delegation met today, and no "suggestion of a iola-tion of Taft instructions was rr.ade. 1 he delegation decided to have badges printed, bearing the words; "Scott for Vice-President." The Georgia legation had a conference at the Grand Pacific Hotel, and later the members threw cold water on the story that the delegation, which is instructed tor Taft, would join other delegations in an effort to stampede the convention to Roosevelt. Members of the Alabama and Texas delegations also denied that they would do anything to start a stampede to Roosevelt. Tarn qaenion whetcer Speker Cannon can eliminate the anti-injunction plank from the Taft platform and the inability of anyone to answer presented the platform problem of the ay.

The speaker is in as to his ability to erat-e or even modify the plank, but this fact a'so series as a stimulus to the eJfort he is making. Hii active lieatecants in the fight are the Congressional coterie. Applications from representative. of labr organizations to le given hearinjs on the p'ank came to Wade Eliis throughout the mornicfr. II.

K. Fuller, the executive repre-en'atne of the lail-way in akinir to be heard, confessed he was unable to extract any ffieaning fiom th plank which gave beneiicial promise to labor. The interpretation placed on the plank by several prominent lawyers in Centra a who are now her was that it eoilld easilr be taken as an indorsement ef th Payne, the Hepburu, th Sterling and all ether Ami-Injunction bills leading before the last Srsdoa of Congress. Action for tin season was prepared cn all these measures as the result of a caucus of the Republican members. While differing in degree, the one thing aimed at- in all tiu-ee measures was to prevent the! ue of injunction without a preliminary hearing, except in cag where irreparu.b damage was cert in to result irom failure to enjoin.

The defenders of the plank insist there is nutting in its terms to be feared, ilany comerenees on the subject weie in progress throughout the day, but the actual situation as to the ability of the Taft forces to embody the plank in the platform, or of tte opposition to el minnte it, will net I knwn until the personnel of the committee on resolutions i finally determined.
