St. Paul daily globe., 1889-02-17

The GLOBE is all right, but prize fights,
log fights and similar news should be
lone away with. The papers are all
tlike in that respect.
Mart Williams-It would increase the
GLOBES circulation Ito the extent of
one copy if they would deliver it to me.
Candidly, l think it would be hard to
improve the GLOBE.
Charles F. Haney-Better deliver me
a copy here free.
e. A. Taylor-All the papers here are
too cautious about denouncing great
corporations. In the East all the papers
would be printing columns of editorials
If the street car companies were allowed
to salt their tracks, but here they do it
undisturbed.
John F. Calderwood- Change it's poll
tics. That's all.
that would make a special feature of
secret society news would increase it's
circulation largely.
John BaXter-Well, they better keep
on roasting the police commission and
not forget to rub it into the city council.
Terrance COnnolly-If they would
give this city council hi with a big II
it would increase the papers popularity
a great deal. thought the old council
was bad enough, but this one is good
| bit worse.
A. T. Ankeny-I think the GLOBE
| would increase its popularity, and do a
good thing for itself as well, by moving
into its new building in Minneapolis
and making this its headquarters.
There is thing that the GLOBE does
do. l think, more than any other paper,
and that is it gets opinions of prominent
citizens, but they are often not matured
opinions. 1t think it would increase it's
popularity if in getting opinions it
would give the person time to think of
the question, and set forth his reasons.
| For instance, you ask me what think
OF board Of public works, and say l
| think it is good thing. That doesn't
amount to much, but if wrote articles,
or gave to you my reasons for it. and
| another man gave his reasons against
| it, that would be worth something. Get
matured opinions.
E. NJ. Wilson--There is one thing in
which all newspapers are deficient, and
that is I'D the matter of accurate court
reports. If the GLOBE would, by some
means, get the issues and real decisions
particularly it would be an extremely
popular paper among the lawyers. 1t is
now. for that matter. Yesterday morn
ing noticed that a referee in a certain
case had made decision which involved
$E0. GOO, and found atterward that no
decision had been made. This was not
the GLOBE, however.
j. w. Lawrence-Just keep on being
good newspaper. You get the news,
and don't forget the sensations. Con-
tlnue in that. There are few things
that need showing up in the city ad-
ministration, the failure to reduce ex-
penses, etc. You have been showing
that up, and it does good. Always
watch for such things and you will be
popular.
A. NJ. Allen-The GLOBE to increase
It's popularity among certain class
should run page each day OF news free
OF OutlandiSh cuts, and keep on getting
the same amount of news. 1t has q
good force, and is energetic, but good
many people object to the light stories
and pictures.
Carmin N. Smith-The GLOBE can do
nothing to Increase its popularity better
than changing politics; that's all it
needs. Well.noW in earnest, should say
that it would make the GLOBE of great
value to the lawyers if they would keep
| a watch OF all the new cases that come
up, and print them with the names of
the attorneys. 1t would be of interest
to lawyers, also, if each morning the
Minneapolis page bore the calendar
call.
Byron Sutberland-C Change your poll
ties. Now look here, you remind me of
story | tell to the boys of the rabbit
who went to an ola witch who lived in
the woods to get her to tell him how he
could be smarter than any other of the
ANIMALS who lived in the woods. He
feared he might be falling behind. She
told him to bring her rattIesnake skin
and live squirrel. Thereupon he in
vented schemes and finally gained them
and brought them to her. Whereupon
she said, MY dear rabbit. think you
are now smarter than all the rest.''
| Can you see the application
a. c. Austin-Our schools are in
