Patent outsidos.

We were asked a few days ago what was
meant by patent outsides, as applied to
newspapers, and we proceed to answer it
through the ADVOCATE, as others may desire to
know also. A 'spatent outside is paper
that has its first and fourth pages printed at
some printing establishment that makes bus
mess of thus furnishing those papers that use
them. The printed paper costs but little more
than the plain white paper, and enables pub
fishers to publish journal al small cost.
The Office that furnishes them get part OF their
pay by the advertisements that appear in them,
very many of which are humbugs. The inside
pages-second and third-are printed at The
office from which the paper is issued and
these two pages is all that the publisher has
to edit and print With the ontside pages he
has nothing to do, and he never sees its CON
tents until few days before he circulates his
paper. The selections are not his, and they
may or may not be of the kind he would in
sert. But there is no help for him; he must
issue his paper whether the contents suit him
or not.
"Patent outsides" are a curse to journalism
and the printing business in general, and to
the people. BY using them the cost of pub
fishing paper is lessened about one-half, and
the editor has but little work to do, hence the
establishment of SO many newspapers. In
nine cases out of ten the paper that uses
''patent outsides'' is not demanded by the
community in which it is published. Not
being demanded by the interests of the peo-
pie, it is not sufficiently supported. To keep
his establishment mp the publisher is eontin-
ually boring people to subscribe and business
men to advertise. Both become annoyed and
the paper is regarded as more Of 2 nuisance
than benefit
s'Patent outsides' are readily detected.
Most Of them contain two Of three columns of
closely printed advertisements on the fourth
page, the picture Of Lydia Pinkham usually
occupying prominent place, while many of
the other advertisements hold ont great prom
ises, such as S77 week, $50 seek. S7I7
a year, &c.
Several of our exchanges with patent out
sides are valued ones. The papers are
necessity in their sections, yet the patronage
is not sufficient to warran, the outlay in en-
ploying compositors aud having their outside
pages set up

The Journalistic Craze.

The field Of journalism IS better filed than
thar Of any other profession. In fact in the
eastern portion Of the Onion II is overdone
There Is scarcely place Of thousand inhab-
itanis on the eastern slope Of the Alleganies

in three is needed. The Others are charge

the community in general.
In Maryland the printing and publishing
business is SO divided that but few publishers
are making much more than current expenses,
while many can scarcely eke ont IN exis-

in the line Of journalism are constantly spring.
ing up. Baltimore has witnessed the birth
and death of some four or Eve newspapers
within a year past. Not one Of the newspa-
pers lived six months, and the biggest ventare
did not exist more than two seeks. These
failures we're not due to the lack Of inielli-
gence and enterprise among Raltimoresns and
the people Of the state. The interests Of the
community did not demand them, and this,
coupled with lack Of talent and journalistic
culture and ability. was the cause Of their
failure. Capital was hacking, too. but there
is no sslrer way Of sinking capital than to
start newspaper in field more than well
filed.
Baltimore, however, has another iournalis-
tic venture. Tke Baiiimore Jowrnal, daily

is not confined to Baltimore. Il seems to ex-
ist everywhere, and men who have no fitness
or qualification at all take up the journalistic
pen with flourish and satisfaction that is
quite refreshing to the knights Of the scissors
and quill. Its about as sensible for man
to undertake TO preach or practice law or
medicine without proper study and Prepara-
ton, as il is to, undertake to successfully con
duet newspaper without previous training
and talent for its duties In fact II is piece
&c presumption. There are few men, how
ever, Of ordinary culture, but who imagine
they can successfully edit and conduct news
paper, and especially is this true of those of a
little learning. Yet, no profession demands
such trainingas that of journalism. No pro-
fession requires such extended and varied
knowledge. No profession requires greater
prudence and accuracy.
