swapping at The JOURNAL because it
asserted it's independence Of party

being the Press, Of St. Paul. That

THE LION AND THE LAMB.

THE LION AND THE LAMB.
The surprise of the year was the
consolidation Of the St. Paul Pioneer
and Press, the two papers appearing
last Sunday morning as one paper,
the Pioneer Press. 1t was like clap
Of thunder in a clear sky and all that
sort Of thing. Nobody was expecting
it. Even the employees Of the two
papers did not know anything about
the proposed change until Saturday
evening.
Politically, the fusion is rather
q strange one. The Pioneer was one
third Democratic, one-third Republic
can and ene-third Independent. The
Press was fiery Republican. The new
paper announces itself as strictly "In-
DEPENDENT what that means
time will be required to tell. Mr..
Wheelock and Mr.. Blakely, the
editors-in-chief, hold the most d.
ametrically opposite opinions upon the
leading political and economical ques-
tions of the day, and both are able
men and both are tenacious of their
opinions. Just how they are to har-
monte these differences they doubt
less understand, but to the outside
world it looks very much like an at
tempt to get up a satisfactory combi-
nation of oil and water. Mr.. F. Dris-
coll is Manager of the united estab-
lishments, and more successful one is
not to be found in the country. MIL.
E. Fisher, is Managing Editor c. L..
Yale, Commercial Editor; A. G. Jor-
dan, Night Editor; E. Richards,
Local Editor; Alex. johnson and S.
B. Woolworth, Reporters Martin
Williams, Black Hills correspondent.
The capital stock is 100000, said to
be held equally by Messrs. Wheelock,
Driscoll and Blakely.
Financially and in point of energy
and ability the new paper will be a
very strong one. 1t holds undispu.
ted possession of the morning field,
and doubtless will continue to forsome
time to come. To establish a new
daily paper, and especially morning
paper, requires a greater outlay of
capital than most men are disposed
to venture.
The consolidation leaves both DO
litical parties without at present an
acknowledged organ at the capital of
the State. The loss, however, is more
in name than in fact. The Pioneer
had not been an avowed Democratic
paper for some time, and the Press
was out of favor with a majority of
the Republicans of the State. 1t is
now more than probable that the
Dispatch, which has been growing more
and more decided in its Opposition ten
denotes, will boone, to all intents and
purposes, Democratic paper, and in
sense the organ Of that party; while
we do not feel guilty of any breach
of confidence in saying that the Pho.
necr-fress will, in most cases, support
the nominees of the Republican party.
But, even if worst should come to
worst, and neither party should have
an organ at the capital, the State
might possibly survive.
