June III, 1907
| am here in the vicinity of the gold dig
gings, nearly half way across the continent, but
not half way through my journey. / have a
lame leg, caused by an upset in the express
wagon, which has bothered me good deal, and
will keep me here for the next week, but / am
going now to devote myself to caring it. Up to
this time, have had no chance | have been
riding almost constantly since my accident,
and have spent the last three days climbing the
Rocky MountaiNs, and looking through the
new gold diggings and my conviction is, that
there is no mistake about it. There is gold
here, but it is harder to get it by digging than
in almost any other way. A few will make
fortunes here, while many will lose all, and go
away utterly bankrupt.
But the glorious Rocky Mountains are
themselves worth visit. They are not a range
merely, but chaos of mountains three hun
dred miles broad, with their forks, their snowy
peaks, their grassy hill-sides, their ravines, and
their glorious forests. Such clean, sweet miles
on miles of fragrant, softly-whispering pines,
you never imagined. The air is gloriously
pure, the hill-sides dotted with springs, the
ravines musical with running streams that
never dry up. l wish l had one friend to go

Editorial Convention.

We hope to see every editor and ex-ed
itor in Northern Indiana here on the 14th
proximo. The reunion cannot fail to be
beneficial in promoting good feeling a
mong the members OF the craft, and by as
sociation learning from one another the
means necessary to be adopted by each one
TO make his business profitable. if nothing
more and probably this is all that should
be attempted. But when we all get to-
gethcr every one can make known his par
ticular views. and introduce such measures
as he may judge proper.
The South Benl Register suggests that
"Dr. Ellis, John Millikan. John A. Ora
ham and /. Mattingly, who have had the
longest experience of all the craft in North
ern Indiana. be requested to designate one
of their numbe- to deliver an Address at
the opening of the Convention" We
highly approve of the suggestion. and
would designate Dr.. Ellis as the indivilu-
al upon whom that distinction should be
conferred Mr. Millikan having already
sisniied that DIR. E. is his choice, it only
remains for Mr.. Graham to assent and
that matter viii be settled.

The Sentinel of yesterday deyo;es a col
umn Figures and political history to the
'lnty of -exeulpating the Democracy OF
Massachusetts, from any participation in
the adoption of the unjust Amendment to
the constitution, which excludes natural
ized citizens from vo:iag for two years.
The labor is well done, but the result i,
not secured. The figures of the prcsidcn
iial election which it produces prove moth
ing as to the respective strength Of the
three parties in that State, for we express
ly stated that on national questions the
Americans and Republicans, united. The
vote on Banks for Governor proves moth
ing either, as the .SeTtinei well knows. for
Banks has been, notoriously, decidedly
American. in feeling from the first, and
was the only lea'ling Republican who did
not distinctly avow his hostility to that
unjust amendment. He carried larger
American vote for Governor than any 9TH
err Republican could. Take from Banks
that American strength, and his vote will
show that the Republican strength stands
where we placed it. larger than any other
one party, and smaller by far than the
other two. SO much for the figures. All
that can be made of the fact that. the
Americans and Republicans in the Legsla-
turc acted together to submit this unjust
amendment to the people. the Sentinel is
entitled to. We put in no defense, and
no exculpation. 1t was wrong. But that
wrong has not been sustained by the Re-
publican masses. We dcspise all wire
drawn arguments, and evidences that have
to be Ding out with sharp misconss ruetion
as a pick-axe, and we place the position OF
the Republican masses in Massachusetts,
on the plain, inteIligihle fact that the Re-

Newspaper Credits.

In noticing the suspension of the Madi-
son Connty Journal. from want OF sup
port, the Indianapolis Journal makes, the
following sensible remarks: ~
All newspaper expenses are to be met in
cash, and the man or men who expect to
succeed in the business of Publishing on
the credit system, will be deceived by a
few months experience Publishers OF
country papers arc fast learning that they
cannot get along with promses-that it re-
quircs something more substantial 20 keep
things sqnare." Without strictly cash
system they cannot make their ralcula-
tions Of an income to meet liabilities
The system must apply to every depart
ment--job work, subscriptions and adver.
Using. The city press have founl it ne.
cessary to adopt and adhere to the casl
rule. anil our country contemporaries will
have to do the same to save themselves
from loss and continued poverty. a
newspaper Is worth the money that is ask
ei for il If it is worth any thing. and il
any one wants it he should pay for it as
he would for pound of sugar or barrel
Of four. The use Of its columns is worth
the full price charged. and should be paid
for as a mechanic is for his work, or a
lawyer for his professional services. There
is 40 reason why the publishing business
shonld not be made strictly cash bust
ness. while there is every reason that il
should be. If our country friends adop,
the cash system there need be no losses
sustained when compelled. BY inadequate
support. to suspend.
For one we have concluded to a.lopt the
above suggestion. Some Of our friends
think it will not work. We know the
kredit system does not, so that we will Lc
in no worse condition should it fail. Our
pecudiary affairs will not admit of our pub
lisllips a paper unless it pays, and If the
Republicans of Marshall will not sustaip
US we viii have to move our quarters OF

not lie such great hardship for subscri-
bcrs to pay in advance for their papers
