That the Tone of the Press is Not I'm

Your queries in relation to Newspapers
as they are and ought to be- have thought
over good deal, and will endeavor to an
swer as you put them.
l. think that the tone of the modern
press is not improving as the years roll by.
l do not think that an editorial column, or
any part of it, should be given up TO prize
fighters-how they live, what they eat and
drink, who Trey in the past have whipped
and who in the misty future they are going
to whip. l do not think that journalism
should make heroes of murderers and then
blame "sentimentalstsn for taking interest
in the idols journalism has erected. do not
think that four or five columns of paper
should be filed with tho details of dog,
cock, bull or prize fight, or with "A scandal.
l do not think that a respectable family
should be Inundated because ono of the
heads of that family was found dead in a
house of ill-repute by the publication of the
poor, weak creatures name. The moral of
the story was quite plain, and no one single
individual was served when that family
name was dragged through tho waste pipes
of journalism; on tho contrary, to many it
brought shame, blighted prospects and self
imposed ostracism. do not think that the
heads or our great dalllcS should WELD rapler
or bludgeon upon each other in their respec-
tive papers. If the head of the house acts
like a rowdy, what can one expect of the
rest of the familyi
q i think that the tone of tho modern
press can be improved by every one in it
acting like a lady or gentleman in public
places and with pen i'll hand; by no writer
penning vicious line anOnymously-or lie;
by no writer penning anything about any
individual he or she would not be willing to
be held responsible for; by writer's realizing
that the freedom Of the press" should not
degenerate into the "license Of the press
in a few words, living up to the good old
golden rule.
8. My ideal of a good newspaper is, one
that shall be ~ clean, e. able, c}lhonest, ~
brilliant. One that shall devote as much
space to literature as to sport of tho dog
fighting rat batting kind: one that Shall give
a dead plug ugly line If 1t is in the way
of news and dead man who has done some
thing in the world, for the world, many lines;
one that shall not wrong its readers TO please
its advertisers; one with some reverence,
some respect for good and great men and
things. Very truly yours, Russell Sage

Notwithstanding the old time practice of
relieving or changing valentines when some
one was drawn that was not quite SO pleasant
to the one who drew that name, there seems
to have been disposition to believe that the
person drawn as a valentine had some con-
siderable likelihood of becoming the associate
of that party in wedlock. At least, we may
suppose that this idea would be gladly and
easily arrived at, where the party SO drawn
was at all eligible from other considerations
There was, it appears, a prevalent notion
among the common people that this was the
day on which the birds selected their mates
They seem to have imagined that an influence
was inherent in the day, which rendered in
some degree binding the lot or chance by
which any youth or maid was now led to fix
his attention on person of the opposite sex.
1t was supposed, for instance, that the first
unmarried person of the other sex whom one
met on St Valentines morning in walking
abroad was destined wife or destined hus-
band. Thus Gay makes a rural dame re-
mark:
Last Valentine, the day when birds of kind
Their paramours with mutual chirpings find,
early rose just at the break of day
Before the sun had chased the stars away.
