MODERN JOURNALISM.

There are great many fOSSiliZed rel
les of humanity in every community
who are absolutely stunned by what
they call the audacity of modern journal
ism. Nor is it surprising that they
should be. They have been unable to
keep up with the march of progress in
other departments of industry, and it
is hardly to be expected that they should
be even within sight of the point which
has been reached by the progressive
Journalism of to-day. 1t is recognized
fact that within the last ten or fifteen
years wonderful change has come over
American journalism. The newspaper
of to-day is entirely different affair
from what the newspaper was a quarter
of century ago. The old journalistic
ideas have passed away, and new era
has dawned upon the world of journal
ism.
The first impulse toward the new
Journalistic diSpenSation was given by
GREELEY and the elder BENNETT, and
yet if they were alive to-day, they could
scarcely realize the rapidity of growth
in the ideas which they planted. 1t was
the success attained by the elder BEN
NETT which gave the immense stimulus
to the news-gathering feature of mod
ern journalism, and he, more than any
other man, is entitled to the credit of
having initiated the era of the modern
newspaper.
In the olden times the newspaper
was pretty much everything except
what tho form inIioafoc naiI morn
or less attention to everything, except
the news. The paper of those days
consisted principally of series of eS-
says on political, economic and religious
subjects, generally more politics than
everything else combined. The result
was that every man who aspired to lead
in politics had his organ and it became
his mouthplece. 10 those who grew up
under that condition of journalistic af-
fairs the methods of the journal of
modern type are wholly Incompetent
sible. Their minds are too befOgged
by the fossilizing effects of too long
tutelage in the old school to discern
the changes which have come in with
the new era.
The newspaper of to-day is what its
name implies. 1t is the gatherer and
dispenser of news. The modern news
paper has happily been denominated
1.-The history of the world the day be-
FORE" The news-gathering system has
been brought to the highest perfection,
and consequently corresponding
widening of the area of topics which be-
long to legitimate newspaper discus
sion. And nothing is more certain than,
that as has recently been remarked by
contemporary, sin the evolution of
journalism, the new, alert, progressive
and Independent type of newspaper is
destined to supersede the old"

seems to point otherwise. Of course, you
have got boss, and his name is Doran, and
he is on top and the GLOBE will submit to

MEN WHO TALK.

Col. w lila m / regard the protec-
ton of our primary
Crooks, ST. elections as one of the
greatest American ne
Paul. cessitieS in the pres
ent age. The original
principle of the primary was developed
with the growth of population, which
made it impossible for an entire CON-
munity to have voice in the proceed
ings of political convention. Thus
arose the primary, meeting where the
people might select those who in con-
ventions assembled should speak for
them. Necessarily the very basis on
which the primary is founded demands
that every safeguard be thrown around
it, and that its conduct be for free eX-
preston of public sentiment. When
they are subordinated to personal ends
they cease to be the machinery of the
people, becoming degraded to the level
of foes to the purity of the ballot.
Col. Balm, of 1 think no one ap-
preciates as fully as
kentucky. public speaker does
the arduous duties of
a newspaper man. A public speaker
who has in him any modicum
of the milk of human kindness soon
comes to understand that the news
paper man is his best friend. He sees the
disadvantages under which he labors,
the unnatural hours of his work, the
high pressure under which he must live,
l. 10
many errors creep into the newspapers
but so few. 1t is marvel of the
nineteenth century THAT our news
papers come so near the truth, and not
so far from it. l can add here that
prohibition will bring to the newspaper
men some new strength. I know that
all newspaper men do not drink, but if
l could say that all did not, then the
world would be better for it. Prohibi-
ton, in removing the temptation to
drink, will aid many journalist in his
hard climb up the ladder of fame to
success. Thinking men-men who use
their brains-cannot afford to drink.
The temporary strength liquor gives
them is soon enough replaced by de-
preston, loss of energy that more
than counterbalances the first gain.

declination. This same Livingstone de-
clares that Alger has the SinewS of war
to carry the state and he alone must
reap the reward. Senator Palmer sees
that the Alger presidential boom is
fructifying and he lays down before it
with seeming cheerfulneSS. Mean
while the Democrats here representing
Michigan say that they have the Re-
publicans on the run, and Congressman
Ford, before leaving for New York,
said: "Our Democratic candidate for
governor is not only popular and able

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-Commission-
er Stockslager, of the general land
office, has rejected the application of
George Ii. Gamble to locate Porterfeld
scrip on about three acres of land in
Private Claim No. 135, commonly known
as the village cemetery in Sault Ste.
Marie, Mich. This land was originally
plated as cemetery lot on the map of
the village made under the act
of 1850, and was used as such for
many years, when, by decree of
the court, at the instance of
the village authorities, the cemetery
was vacated and new site selected.
Gamble claimed that when the site was
vacated as cemetery the land reverted
to the public domain, and as such was
subject to his location. The improve
ments on the land were valued at up
wards of 100000. The office held that
the action of the village authorities did
not work an abandonment as to the
benefciaries, and if an abandonment
was shown reversion would not occur
until forfeiture had been declared,
and that under the original dedication
the complete title passed to the village.

CONKLING BETTER.
The Ex-senator Much Improved
---CauSe of the Illness.

New YORK. April 7.-ROscoe COnk-
ling passed a comfortable night and is
reported to be very much better to-day.
He had the first good nights rest last
night which he has had since the b agin-
ming of his sickness, week ago Friday.
The greatest pains have been taken
both at the senator's residence, 9 West
Twenty-fOurth street, and by the physi-
clan in charge, to keep quiet the re-
port of his patients sickness. 1t was
desired to save his friends from unnec-
essary anxiety. The.senator, has been,
however, very sick man, and has suf-
fered acutely. The trouble is an alb
scesS in the region of the right ear,
deep in the head. The symptoms
developed into inflammation of the
membrane of the brain. The discharge
from the seat of the trouble came
through the right ear and was very pro-
fuse. This seemed to relieve the pa
tient considerably. He got little or no
sleep until last night. The sickness
was superinduced. it is thought, by at
tending hearing last week at which
the room was kept very cold. In addi-
ton to this it is thought that the sena-
tors experience in walking home on
the afternoon of the late blizzard had
much to do with weakening his system
and making him liable to such attacks.
His condition this evening is much i'm
proved and his physicians expect that
he will be much better still tomorrow.
They continue to prescribe complete
rest and quiet and during the day he re-
ceived no visitors, not even his most in
innate friends.
