The II fluence OF the Press.

Justice.
Close observers have for some time
past noticed an increasing disregard
for the opinions Expressed in news
papers, and it is interesting to inquire
into the reason for this. A somewhat
careful examination has led us to be-
lieve that it is largely due to the prao-
tice which many newspapers indulge
In of selling their opinions and influ-
ence, to the highest bidder. 1t 10 of
course to be expected that a paper will
represent the interests of Its stock
holders where it Is published by q
stock company as many newspapers
are, and it ia well known that those
who represent corporate and other
financial interests which are constant
ly seeking legislative privileges
have Invested quite largely In news
paper property in order to advance
their schemes. They supplement this
with o liberal distribution of job
printing, advertising and FREQ pass
patronage, aud through these com.
bined Influences succeed in controlling
O very large proportion Of the press
of the country In their interest, which
in n great majority of cases Is opposed
to that of the mass of the people. The
msSSeg see and feel this. No amount
OF sophietry. can bind them, and
hence tho prees is gradually but surely
losing Its influence over tho people,
who have learned to distrust what
thoy zee in print instead of believing
it, and unfortunately this also applies
in a greater or loss degree to those
papers which really DO advo'
cate the interests Of the people
as against those of rings and
monopolies, and whose opin
iona are not for sale. Even the new
begins to be d~istrusted, and it only
needs u little further control over oul
telegraphs by tho great financial free
hooters of the age to make the peopl,
generally hkcptical an to the truth o
anything they aee In print. Their,
are two things which tho people Cal
do to check this tendency. First
sustain only those papers which advo
cato the public interest as agains
those of rings and monopolies, an,
second, let every citizen exert his in
f~lUencs to secure the adoption of
postal telegraph similar to that O

MRS. LANGTRY.
Fredd,e's Amour With Lengtry's
Wife.

One of the city papers in comment.
ing on Schwab's card TO which Geb-
herdt's name Is affixed relates the fol-
lowing of Freddie's amour with Lang
t1y's wife:
Mara is q discreet gentleman, Of
nearly twice Freddie's age and exper-
fence, an artist by profession, and re.
lated in a morganatic way with the
royal family OF Italy. He knew Mrs.
Langtry In London, and is regarded
as n of her confidential friends.
Gebhardt has cultivated an Intimacy
with him for some weeks, and into
Marra's ear doth he pour the torrents
that gush from his heated and unsat-
isfied soul. Maria smiles at the boys
folly, but does not rebuke It.. He
consented to make tho trip to Chicago
and act as Freddis's chaperon, becom-
ing responsible for his good behavior.
During the journey from New York
to Chicago Gebhsrdt created a good
deal of amusement for the passengers
upon the same train, all of whom very
soon found out who he was and made
it their entertaining occupation to
watch his movements. He was very
lavish with his money and demonStra.

remarked:
"You would have known he vas in
love by the way he acted"
Freddie kept his servant very busy
running between the cars and tho tel
egraph offices at the stations along the
route, aud used up whole block OF
telegraph blanks before he got to
Chicago. His messages, like those he
sent from New York, were
VERY LONG AND VERY TENDER,
and In the one he sem from Buffalo
he unloaded his soul. He notified
Mrs. Langtry that she was the sun
shine Of HIS existence, and all that
sort of thing, and informed her that
he could not live much longer out oil
her presence. This was the general
tenor of all the kilograms he cent, but

Chicago, 29.-Ihe movement which
has been organized to hold mass meet
ing of Irish Catholics in this city to pro-
test against the Pope's bull in relation to
the participation of bishops and clergy
in the Parnell testimonial fund, is caus-
ing some stir among Irish Americans
here. There is apparently q difference of
opinion as to the wisdom of such
course, the more conservative urging
that action be delayed until the full text
of the Pspal note is known. Other Of
the leaders insist on immediate action,
and q meeting will be held on Tuesday
next to decide whether mass meeting
shall be called. Priests being inter
viewed, join in urging that no laymsn or

against the head CT the church.
