The albany Argus, commenting upon
the recently reported remarks of the Hon.
Mr.. Seofeld, of Pennsylvania, that "the
daily press rules the country, SAYS truly !:
THE daily press cannot direct the country
contrary to its convictions. But the peo-
pie are growing more independent every
day, and determined to act solely upon
their own conscientious convictions, with
out regard to the impulses Of mere blind
partisanship. These convictions are based
upon their knowledge Of facts: and the
only method in which the daily press can
rule the country is by its publication of
the facts, and not by its oracalar utter
ances or partisan appeals. The enlighten-
ed Judgment of the people controls or
rules the country, and a newspaper
Astounding in news must necessarily shape
that judgment. And therein is the great
difference between an organ which dis
torts the news in the interests of its party,
and that portion of the daily press which
gives all the news of the day, no matter
what its political effect may be. The in
fluence Of organs and the effect of par
tisan sophistry is gone knowledge only
is power in the political field as well as
elsewhere; and newspaper which affords
accurate knowledge is power merely be
cause it does it. But nevertheless, it is
intelligence, and not the daily press, which
rules the country
