For some years past, says the
Salt Lake DAILY Herald, there has
been talk of class in journalism in
Cornell University, aud, indeed,
some special instruction has been
given, but only about six months
ago was the class formed aud the
experiment of training young men
for the profession OF journalism, as
modern newspapers" is under
stood, was tried. Information comes
that the trial has SO Ear been salts
factory, and the class will continue.
1t is intimated that in time there
will be journalistic chair, which
will be feature of the great eduea-
tional institution.
1t is difficult to understand just
how they would go about to teach
journalism; it is not an art or a
science to be taught by professors,
any more than poetry can be taught
by schOolmasters. What would we
think Of man who would under
take to teach one how to write poe
try? The peculiar qualifications
essential to success in the newspa-
per-making industry cannot be i'm
parted, no matter how learned
the teacher may be. The professor
cannot give the student brains and
Judgment, and these the journalist
must have.
There is one school, and only one,
in which journalism can be learned,
and that ia in the school of expert
ense where Greedy. Weed, Prentice,
RAYMOND, Dams, Storey and all the
great journalists learned. lmag-
inc college professor instructlng
Horace Greedy in journalism !!
Greedy had the brains as the basis,
and actual experience did the rest
for him.
While we have no faith in any
ssschool of journalism we still
think the college may do good SER
vice for the young men who expect
to engage in newspaper work.
They may perform this service BY
impressing upon the minds of these
Young men the Imperative necessi-
ty of being truthful, accurate, in
dustrious, enterprisiug and DIS
eliminating. No further, however,
can the course in journalism take
the student. Practice only can do
the rest.

Dealing with the Republicans.

The resignation of Samuel J. Randall from the
young men democratic association creates great
deal of talk in political circles in spite of the ex-
PLANTATION from Mr. Randall that he resigns for
purely personal reasons. The political situation
is such as to encourage the democrats to hope Tor
success in the next election. The young mems
democratic association and other straghtout or
ganizstions have therefore been disposed TO put
up full ticket of representative men. If they
could not accomplish anything more, they had 4
chance to gain a judgeshlp for this reason. Some
time ago Senator Quay had his cousin Judge PEN
nypacker, appointed to the Common Pleas against
the protests of all the party workers. De will
come up for election to the same position next
fall, and the democrats count on large republican
defections provided they put up a strong candl-
date against him. But Quay is actually scheem-
ing to get democratic Endorsement for Penny
packer. 1t is claimed Randals lieutenants have
already pronounced in favor of it. In the moan
time Quay does not disturb Randalls friend, Dam
iel NJ Fox, Superintendent of The Mint The
boys" have been putting these things together,
and they have about up their minds that Il
deal has been made between Quay and Randall,
whereby Pennypacker is to be reelected Judge
and Randalls friends in federal places are to he
cared for and they conclude that Randall'S resig-
nation from the young mems democratic IS ocia-
on is an effort to rid himself of entsnging alli-
ances, preparatory to the carrying out of this ar
