TEM FORMATION OF PUBLIC
OPINION.

IN presiding at the. annual dine- of . the.Newe-
paper Press / undethe Chancellor of the t_z-
chequer made some pertinent remarks on the
subject of the influence exercised by the news-
paeer pri'ss in the formation and expression of
of public opipien. it is not surprising that he
ts flitted to notice some aspects of the question,
for of al the development in the unofficial
public institutions of this country, that made
by the newaneper is among the most remark-
able and successful.' In no department of •com-
tnerce probably has the competition been so
keen tied the growth so great. Without hav-
ing recourse te that interesting individual the
"oldest inhabitant," there are a great many
people who-cau remember with what interest
wid anxiety they awaited the result of import-
aat divisions in the House of Parliament, the
aows of whieh took nearly a week to reach
someaf the remoter parts of the country.' Aril
-there-is a very pathetic side to the delay which
eccured between the announcement of a decisive
battle arei the ,pnbacatiou of the lists of killed
Ind wounded. Not only were the 'fates of
uttions trembling in the scale, but !malts were
torn.withetrief and anxiety while tho days wore
sway and-no news .of the loved ones- doing
'battle for their countty in those tronblous timee
eould be obtained. If only in :this respect, the
enterprise which is new exhibited by newspapers
,has conft-tred a bcori upon the public which- can
-nay be appreciated by a contetnp alion of the
landitions of life in days • when the, existing
.aciiities for the publication of news- were lack-
ing. These are considerations which can
-oe valued by all classes.of people. Bat to cpm-
eerciel IntAl the newspaper :has become iodie-
eensable. Without the daily votetions of
ottocke and markets teacle would be et a said-
still.
.and the laws of eupply and demand become
inoperative. In recognizing the importartee ef
;_tie.;e 'considerations a feeling svenne ti have
gatio-Al ground in some quarters that the news-
paper has lost its influence in matters ef opinion
Ibis probably arises from - the circumstance
that at one time the pronouncement of a par-
ticnlar organ was one of the . most. important
teeters in political and public life generally.
. The multiplication of newspapers has tak, n
.tway that eharacter of' authority from the
opinions of the two or three jeurnals which not.
to to, g ago were the oely Means of diffusieg
political kuowledge throughout the country.
But in this, very onflict of authority is the

finance of the Press has at no time been so
great as at the present. By - turbo every ebb-
ject which can interest and effect mankind
comes tueder notice. Like a' Nitsmyth hammer
it can crush a bar of -iron or crack a nut,
Whether it be a change of Pletniers or a ques-
tion of paving, the' Press, regarded as a whole,
brings into a focus ad the light tnat can be
thrown on the subject. After ail, perhaps, its
west :important service is thet which-it renders
as a morel policeman. There is no doubt that
the a:most entire absence of what is known US
jobbery in the proceedings of public bodi‘s is
due to the fear that the tuost s:Tret things are
made known, and that abuses of public trust are
unsparingly exposed. Such a subject is re-
moved from the charge of displaying, egotism;
the newspaper is bnt'the refitet of the public
mind in its matiy-sidedness; it is not Only “the
abetract and brief chronicle of the times." It
must, therefore, be it matter for sstisfaction to
every right-thinking man that the journals if

leases no. ground. for objection, their columns

and the record Of etiblic eeente. Every news-
paper reader becomes a critic as to fact, style,
or opinion-; and the knowledge that every state..
went undergoes eti.Ai extended and careful scru-
tiny, must tend to the exercise of' kemperath

wonderful power of assimilating as well as of
developing all that is best in a people. Men,
may, thektfore, easil; judge what they are by

THE 111(,)N TRADE
BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY.

The iron mark:A was fairly animated this after-
noon, inquities being more numerous in all depart-
ments, th .ugh sales were not much in excess of the
lucent av,rage. Manufacturers' quotations were
rather firmer, hut actual prices were not eppreei-
atly altered. There was a well-sustained demand
for galvanised .shiets for Aust, alia and South
America, as well as for home consumption, and con-
s quently plain rolled steets were in better request
1.. y the galvanisra. MPflufae,ure;s, however; were
Ituatile to secure any better terms.
and engineering iron was freeiy demanded, and gas
strip and nail rods were disposed of in fairly large
lots. Pig iion was in sttady though nut active
r.'quest at unchanged pritlea. The coal trade con-
tuti, a qu:et, ani prices slightly drooping. There
is an absence of demand for house fuel.
