Editosfsi Philosophy.

The address % Col. Elliott f. Sheppard
OF the Mail and Express. before the an
nual meeting of the National Editorial
Association at Detroit, contained some
very good points besides those of exela-
nation. Ii was. M whole, somewhat
contained two or three good ideas. His
idea Of editorial philosophy WAS that it
was embraced In a free and unshackled
press. According to Col, Shepard 1t was
within the power of the press
TO either build up or tear down the
American Union. the marriage institution,
the rights Of labor and capital, which are
one and the same thing; the common
school, which Is the bulwark Of our liber-
ties; the Constitution and laws of the
country; IL is in your power to increase
or diminish intemperance, robbery,
bloodshed, perjury, or truthfulness, equal
political rights, religious liberty, so
briefly, the sacredness Of human life, hon.
or; 1t Is In your power to foster or to de-
press agriculture, manufactures, arts,
commerce, transportation, exchanges; it
Ia In your power to made or break reputa-
tions, combinations. competitions, associa-
tions, corporations, institutions, to spread
education or ignorance, content or dis
content, brotherly love or diabolical NAL
Ice truth or falsehood, patriotism or dis
loyalty. peace or bloodshed. In
saying which he showed the almost ON
nipotent power OF the press, and in no
particular was 1t over colored. Such be-
Ing its power II was the true philosophy
to exercise In the conduct Of every paper
the principles OF love to God and love to
man. Proceeding from this Col. Shepard
made some very timely remarks on the
manner Of conducting political campaigns.
and said that systems should he at
tackled, not men; and the throwing
Of mud and javelins should be put
an end to. Abuse always rebounds
and cuts the hand that throws the weapon.
The late Presidential election was a
rare instance Of the absence of personal
never since the election Of Washington
and the second election Of Monroe, which
he carried unanimously on the theory and
cry that "rhis is the era Of good feeling"
has there been national election with so
little bitterness and vituperation, and thus
is to the credit Of the whole press Of the
country--bcth Republican and Demo-
cratic. There are some subjects
that an editor must discuss which do not
lind their way into the platforms Of either
party, and which II he did not discuss
them he would be proved to be
entirely void Of editorial philosophy.
Among these are the negro question, the
sectional questions Of the country. and the
Romanist question. These should all be
treated candidly. fairly. impartislly and
in the splrit Of broad philosophy and a
deep sense Of public responsibility.

Mr.. Edwin Reed has written brief
treatise which he calls, "A new view of
the temperance question: the object of

to be brought about by prohibition or
moral suasion or by an, of the methods
which are commonly advocated.
He contends that the craving for
stimulants is unnatural and is due to the
lack Of sufficient nourishment, and he
argues that sufficient supply of proper
food would do away with intemperance.
Mr.. Reeds argument is ingenious and
novel. his style IL very good. and if he
has failed to discover final solution of
the temperance problem he has certainly
made an interesting contribution to the
controversy.
