DIRTY JOURNALISM.

The New York World last week
printed two letters, purportIng to come
from Rutland and TO give a. true histo-
ry Of Secretary Of War Proctor's Ca
reer.
The merits of the writer Of these let
tiers as a liar fairly entitle him to a
seat on that "bad eminence" where
his tutor .exalted sat-" They bear
the ear-marks OF journalistic tramp
and vagabond who used to infest Rut-
land and to abuse decent citizens of the
town and its vicinity, ex-Gov. Proctor
included. Finally he tried to procure
admission to the bar; but after invest
igating his character, committee of
the State Bar association, of which
Col. Aldace f. Walker was chairman,
decided that it was too rotten. He
then sunk into deserved obscurity.
Now for the paper in which the let
tiers appeared The World was once,
under TIE editorship of w. II. HUI
bert, an eminently respectable news
paper, clean and high-toned. 1t was,
however, too good for its constituency
and did not pay. Then it passed into
the hands of its present manager,
Hungarian rustler imported from the
wilds of St. Louis. lie was troubled
with no principle and hampcred by
nothing. He made the World the adj
vertising medium of all the disreputa-
BILE men and women of the metropolis
and provided reading matter which
would not weary this class. Like a
true democrat he went in "for revenue
only" OF late the paper has improv-
ed somewhat; but these are the meth
DDS followed in the building up of
journal which proudly calls itself
''great" newspaper.
Mr.. Proctor is not in need Of de-
fence at our hands or at the hands of
any one else but it is well that people
should understand what is the charac-
ter Of the sheet which prints attacks
upon him and what the standing of
their probable author.
But, after all, the World is not SO
culpable as a Rutland paper which re-
prints these libels on its townsman and
yet claims to be leading organ of his
party. The World may have been de-
eeived, but the Herald knows better
