There is ono marked difference be-
tween papers published in country
towns and those published in cities.
/ City papers get pay for all work done,
and no one expects them to publish
, complimentary notices no more than
they expect dry goods or grocery stores
TO furnish them with complimentary
goods. The country papers are ex-
pected to do large amount of work for
nothing-and they do it.

Clean Journalism ut a Pre-
MUM.

With a few exceptions. as is the
case in any line Of business, the
press Of Texas and of the South
stands upon a high plane of dignity
honor and usefulness. Novices or
mere tyros should never be permitted
to misuse the columns of a public
journal to vent their spleen or pre-.
jodice, and thus bring into disrepute
the high calling of legitimate jour.
nalism. One of the secrets of the
profession is to have tact and dis.
cernment sufficient to know what to
say, how to say it, and when to cay
it. In short, to know what to keep
out Of public print, and to publish
matter calculated to advance the
public welfare, free from passion
or prejudice. Consciousness or a
dogmatic spirit is unbecoming the
true journalist. Burke once said:
"Let me tell my youthful censor that
the necessities of that time required
something very different from what
Others then suggested" A dispas.
s%ionate, cool head, and a mentality
which has grown stronger under
the influence of wise discipline and
se~lf-reliance, slow to censurc, and
qnick to applaud every just and
noble aim in life, is the kind of
material best adapted for journalis-
tic work. The power OF the press
when logged in such hands has a
sphere Of usefulness second to no
other calling. The editor who
rightly c%omprehends the full meas
nre of his responsibility speaks from
the highest pulpit on earth. How
important tits that journalism should
be in good hands, and its u~tterances
have the force of law.-Jeferson
Iron News.

Observation-Disclosures the world.
n part of it strikes south Of the
Congo at the great northern bend
of that river, and the country en-
braccd within the big curve is
covered with a compact forest. the
towering and wide-spreading trees
shutting out q large part of the
sunlight. In these forests, complete,
" shut ont from the rest of the
world, live hundreds of thousands
Of people who are almost unknown
to the tribes living in the sayan-
IA region outside. Scattered through
the big woods, within the Congo
bend, are little communities of
Batwa dwarfs, of whose existence
the traveller has no inkling until he
suddenly comes upon them. Here
also, along the Sankuru river, are
the tree habitations described by
Dr. Wolf, where the natives lived
in huts built among the branches to
escape the river foods. 1t was in
great clearings made in these forests
that kuud and L~appenbeck discov-
cred some Of the most notable
villages yet found in Africa. 1t
was his account Of these villages
that led Bishop Taylor to choose
this part OF Africa as the goal he
wished to reach. Last year the
commercial company Which is in
vestigating the trade ~esource Of
the Congo sent its steamer, the Roi
des Belges, up the Ikatta river into
this great timberland, and the ex.
plorers described the country along
tho banks as covered with an almost
impenetrable virgin forest.

 PHoroGRAPnrc PRoGNosTICA TIoN.-The disaster to the war-ships stationed at Apia has reminded Mr. H. K.

Photographs of the sun are claimed to offer almost infAllible indications of atmospheric and subterraneAn disturbances at least twenty -four hours In advance. The photographs often show rings about the sun, and when these rings are unusually large and heavy, violent storms or magnetic disturbances will soon be perienced. The establishment of 6 photographic observatory at every ships station Is urged.
