"When 1 met Mr. Itrnndeis the other dsy I was glad to hear him say -and he meant II, too that he attributes the build ing of hla successful enterprises In Dmahii largely to a policy of consistent advertis ing consistent not only In the regularity of Its appearance, hut In its statements also, which Is more important even than regularity, localise without It the conli den.'e and support .if the community cannot he secured.

"The name of Stern Hros. stands very mRh in ,,,p commercial world and Mr. tt.snneis is gre.my impressed wiui inn me: " 'Nobody recognizes more than I do the power of newspaper advertising. I applied It suecessf uly In Omaha and it ran be spplied snccessf nlly here.

II. lulleves thai instead of letting tho governor apilnt the other of flclals it should be specified that the governor, lieiiicnaut governor and lint three rail way commissioners, or, in other words, the elective officers, jointly agree upon the appointments and be collectively responsible for them. Another objection Pr. Foster makes is to the provision, which, he says, "provided no district shall I ,IHV' more than one senator nnd one rep- i '' sentatlve He takes that to mean that counties like Douglas could be dllded Into twelve representative districts and five .senatorial districts In order to give each district one represent hi ivo and one state senator. "1 ,f.ee in letting the represent;!! I es and senators represent the county at lsrt;e," said Dr. Foster, "and I could hi-p no reason for cutting the county up Into many districts." shorl Henry ('.
