of his stage talents TO interrupt his study of
the other art. The excellent portrait of Mr..

INDEPENDENT EEwsPAPERs.-In this
day of cheap hireling newspapers, it
is refreshing to read the following
clear cut. sensible talk in tAe Oregon
ian: 1T Is vigorous quality of fear
less independence OF speech, as dis
tinguished from reckless cepsorious-
ness, that makes even newspaper of
narrow circulation a blessed power in
the state. A newspaper that other
wise upright and self respecting takes
the stand that it does not care what
Mr. Robinson thinks, if Mr.. Robinson
Is wrong, will soon discover Mr.
Robinson is quite apt to seek the
paper that scorns to seek Mr.. Robin-
son. Only on this platform does a
newspaper nowadays take firm root
and grow; only when It's plants itself
sqHarely on this platform and stays
there will it attain the full altitude
of moral influence that belongs to it.
An editor needs above most men to
possess moral courage, for he is often
er in daily temptation to swerve from
the sternest right than most men, and
above all his fellows an editor needs
to fear nobodytbut God. The "enter-
prize" of collecting gossip, of en-
phasizing scandal, of ploughing foI
garbage, of playing polecat to the
crowd, he can afford to be without
but he cannot afford to be without
that public courage of opinion that
growls like mastiff when the state
is in danger of being scuttled by
knaves or stranded by fools What
is wanted is plain, uncompromising
speech, that, without and spite OF
private malice. or personal prejudice
discusses all public questions of con-
sequence with no suspicion of re-
straint because of this or that public
man, who is behind the measure
There is plenty of bitter, brutal wal
of mere personal blackguardism
there is pRnty of miserable seDsa-
tionalism, but there is not enough OF
courageous contempt for the enmity
of individual or corporate power
The press that would lead rather
than follow the people shows its color
of true independe not by base
less Yilification of men and and things
to feed gossips and satisfy the igno-
bic eaters of scandal. but by dealing
with public men and measures in the
spirit of the sternest. and simplest
justice to the public. Where the
limo is fairly drawn between salutary
freedom of journalistic speech and the
mere blowing of sidewalk scandal and
low sensationalism into dirty soap
bubbles, is exactly where It is drawn
