that they are in harmony with the expressed
Sutude Of the republican party upon the civil
service reform AS declared in our last national
platform. but they believe Its provisions have
been extended beyond its original intention, E"
and they want a modification ITO give more

platform with which they are "in harmony" re-
peats the pledge Of 1884, and declares that '.the

An event Of no little moment IN the history
Of cotemporary journalism occurred in the ap-
pearance in Chicago last week of the first num-
Der of a bright and handsome daily newspap er
entitled TIE EceHHlJ Post. Well supplied as
the metropolis Of the northwest is in able and
eLterprising Journals the new conner will
make for itself if it does not find field for
which i: is specially adapted since until now
Chicago has not had an afternoon paper of its
size and quality, that is, irst-class. eight-page
sheet, published at the low price of cents per
copy. Something like The EVENING STAR. for
example. Il Is, moreover. III the hands of
capable, experienced. and energetic men,
col James W. Scott. who's, sagacity and push
made the Chicago HrdH such a pronounced
success, being thu head of its management
But the new venture has another clai i to pub
/, favor. and one which will go far towards
assuring its prosperity. 1t keeps tn, following
notice standing at the head Of its editorial
columns:
The circulation books Of the Chicago Fi-e1 ina
Jy' are open AT al times 10 the Inspection Of its
advertising patrons
This is a new departure for beginner. It
i. indeed, an example which few old estab-
lshed journals dare follow. But it is the only
sIuare way to treat advertisers, who have as
much right to know what they are getting for
their money as has the purchaser of groceries,
cry goods, or any other commodity. TIE
EcsttHJ Post may not have at the start as large
circulation some of its old cotemporaries
aim, but it is willing It's customers shall know
what It IS all the time. That is long step in
the direction of honest journalism, and also. it
Lay be added, in the direction of permanent
and respected success.
