the day as the formally endowed represent
alive of the empire. Change of admins
tration is brought about by the will of the
people, and The Times, in accommodating
itself to popular will as expressed at gen.
eral elections, maintains its high stand as
THE Thunderer" of the nation. But, just
as the people change during the unceasing
march of politics, The Times is not servile
to the powers that be. 1t reserves the right
to criticise and attack, and is often as bold
and incorporating toward government
measures as the strongest opposition jour
nails. Statesmen bow their heads when
'The Thunderer" roars and take speedy
steps to patch the holes in their statesman
ship.
Editorial work in England is not as per-
feet as it is in the United States. The
British editor rarely troubles himself with
the details or general appearance of his
paper. After he has mapped out the days
programme he is content to leave its elab-
grafton to subordinates. These are care
fully chosen of course, and as well able to
take care of the task, but even they do
not evince the same painstaking care to
produce good paper as our night editors,
city editors, telegraph editors and copy
readers. Copy reading is in fact an un-
known art in the English newspaper Office.
Manuscript is simply glanced over to as
certain its value and fitness. Its obscurities,
photography or vagueness of punctuation
receive no editorial revision to speak Of
The compositors and proofreaders have to
attend to those matters, and really do work
usually performed in the editorial depart
ments of our newspapers. In many in
stances bad manuscript is given to the
printer to set up before the matter is
passed upon by the editors, who are unable
to decipher it.
Some of the leader writers, correspond
ents and reporters write miserable hands
They despise anything in the nature of
punctuation, and contract words in way
that would drive an American compositor
to distraction. Everything has to be recti-
fed in the composing and reading rooms.
The compositor is held responsible for
outs" repetitions and ordinary gram
NAUTICAL blunders. If he has sporting or
commercial leases" he frequently has to
make tables out of straight matter. Rules
about spacing" are very stringent. An
EN- quad and thin space are the most
that is allowed in the worst emergencies of
making even"
One or two sub editors look over the copy
at night and write brief summaries Of
news Their duties, thanks TO the intelli-
gent compositor and proofreader, are very
easy. In ordinary times not more than
two or three columns of telegraphic news
is received; the bulk of the work Of the
provincial correspondents comes by express
in time for use. Bills for Geographic serv-
ice are Insignificant compared with those Of
American journals. At times, however,
those tolls jump to enormous figures.

ton in South America The London Times

s.. Lou,s to Colorado VI. wiehlta.


Commencing Sunday, July 1880, the
Missouri Pacific railway will run through
sleeping cars from st. Louis via Pleasant
Hill, Rich Hill. Fort Scott and Wichita to
Geneseo and from thence to Pueblo. Colo
RADIO Springs and Denver. This change
was made on account of great many peO-
pie from the east going to Colorado being
DESTROYS of going via Wichita. The train
will stop here two hours, giving all a
chance to view the Peerless Princess" and
still land passengers in Colorado same
time as if they had gone via Kansas City.
1t also gives the citizens of Wichita sleep
ing car service from here to Colorado. Re-
turning, it gives us through sleeping car
service Wichita toSt Louis, and gives the
Colorado people a chance to go east via
Wichita. This change will undoubtedly
be appreciated by the travelling public, and
especially by the citizens of Wichita. If
you are going east or west go via the pop
ular new through route. Through chair
and sleeping car service. New route just
completed between Fort Scott and Rich
Hill goes through the finest mineral and
agricultural country in the west. Don't
forget the new short line to st. Louis or
Colorado.

Inc same oreary moRoUony Is carried
through every department. 1t appears as
if the reporters were furnished with print
ed blanks and had only to fill in names,
places and results in order to furnish their
daily copy. But, as already set forth, this
is the class of journalism which the En-
glishman requires; if there should be any
variation from those monotonous preludes
he would send an indignant protest to the
editor and probably stop his paper on the
ground of mischievous innovation, which
might disturb the peace of the island. I'M
aginative writing is only tolerable in for
eign dispatches and accounts OF battles,
and even then It must be tempered so as
not to shock by vigor or displease by ex-
uberance. The Britisher wants but little
fancy here below, nor wants that little
strong
English journalism resembles our own in
one respect-it is aggressively partisan
when occasion requires. Politics runs wild
at times in Great Britain, and broken heads
and noses are quite common on election
days. tits then that the Englishman braces
himself to listen to hot invective and abuse
of his opponents, butte inthose supreme
moments his newspaper cannot forego its
dignity or completely dispel its dizziness.
High sounding epithets are often employed,
but they are carefully chosen and their
edge taken off by judicious qualification.
The British journalist has a wholesome
fear of the law of libel, which is by no
means a dead letter in the old country,
where juries are uncoE1monly pig headed
and take vicious delight in sitting upon
daring journalists. Libel suits invariably
60 against newspapers, and editors are
forced to restrain themselves at the very
time when their readers are prepared to
enjoy departure from the beaten path Of
dizziness.
The Times of London, which is still
"The Thunderer" of the British empire
despite its unfortunate experience in the
Parnell matter, adapts its politics to that
of the administration of the period. 1t is
Liberal when the Liberals arein power and
Tory under Tory rule. While inconsistent
on its face this policy has its good features.

ish people it supports the government of
