BRANDER MATTHEWS notes in the
Century that the French newspaper
is hardly paper containing news, but
rather one of criticism. "The childish
or unintelligent thirst to know what
has happened regardless of the impor-
lance Of the event has not yet been
developed IN France by the rivalry of
scrambling editors; and it may be as
serted without fear of contradiction
that even if they could have it with
out cost and without trouble, French
editors would refuse to print most of
the trivial trash which cumbers the
columns Of even the foremost Ameri-
can papers.
