We admire the ornate, the vigorous, the
expressive. We have respect for the
belligerent in journalism. The polished
style of the Western editors has ALWAYS
excited our admiration. There is a finish
and sharpness of detail and a relishable
pungency in the manner in which the
average editor tells a contemporary that
he is prevaricator that is very refresh
ing. Then, too, the choice adjectiyal ex-
preston to which our colleagues of the
prairies are given, their command of Ian
guage, the vividness of their personal
sketches, and their perfectly clear method
of describing the personal appearance, and
of indicating the character and manner of
their Western journalistic colleagues, is ex-
quisitely stimulating. Now here is an in
stance of incisive invective and free-hand
word-painting, from the Tecumseh (Neb.
Republican, that must excite the envy of
every Western journalist:

SAYS the editor of the atlantic Monthly:
We hear of people seeking by public adj
vertisement for a suitable partner in mar
rage, but who ever heard of anyone's
advertising for a friend? Yet, why not ~
Yes why not? As suggested, we all have
our ideals of friends, and why may not
these be filled in response to an earnest
search through the aid of an advertise
ment? Novel of course; but not for
that reason an absurd idea. The announce
ment of ones desire to form relation on
the basis of friendship springing from har-
mony of desire, thought and ambition, is of
no more questionable propriety tn an ad-
vertlsing for business partner-the COM
monest of transactions. The forces that
bring and hold men together in the bonds
OF friendship are more potent than those
that unite them in business concerns. But
what noyeltyIt would be, indeed, to find
In ones morning paper the detailed state
ment of qualifications one must possess to
unlock the secrecy of an unknown adver
tlser for friendY One of these suppo-
sitious advertisements the atlantic faci
tiously formulates, but the virtues specified
and the qualifications demanded are such
that responses there would be none, except
from the class who are blind to their own
defects, oblivious to their intellectual and
moral shortcomings, and impervious to
sarcasm. Still, one can imagine what a
revelation genuine correspondence, in-
duced by soberly advertised want for a
friend would be, for the world is full of
self-laudation and vain boasting. and all
manner of conceit. But there are gener-
Gus souls, and sincere hearts, and true ma
lures, and from among the many might be
some who would discern truth and harbor
no suspicion.
