The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-06-01

We observe that the Tribune tactics of
boycotting the advertising columns of
newspapers, whose editorial policy does
not conform to the views of the advertiser,
obtains no more favor in. the capital of
Idaho than in Salt Lake Because the
New Y ork World had views on the silver
question that did not square with those of
the Tribune, that sheet advised the real es-
tate men to refuse 1t an advertisement,
conceding at the same time that the World
had a circulation of nearly 100000 copies a
day. In Boise much the same thing came
up on the question as to whether the board
of trade should place any of its advertis-
ing with THE SALT LAKE HERALD, sew
eral members Directing on the ground that
this paper had opposed statehood for Idaho
to this the majority very sensibly replied
that it was the circulation of The HERALD
that the board of trade wanted, not its edi-
torial views, and THE HERALD was placed
in the advertising list. Followed to its
legitimate conclusion, the effect Of the Trt-
bune reasoning is that the editorial utter
ances of a newspaper should be shaped by
its advertisers, which may be well enough
in an Office where mortgage blanks are the
principal stock in trade, but which will
hardly do for paper that aims at any thing
like independence and attempts TO deal in
the news of the day.

BOOMING THE WORLDS FAIR,

Chicago seems at length to have taken off
her coat, rolled up her sleeves and grappled
in earnest the problem of how to handle
the worlds fair. During the past week
THE HERALD, and we suppose the larger
papers elsewhere throughout the country,
also, have been II receipt of gigantic pros
pectuses of the Worlds Fair Publishing
company, with requests for rates on large
advertising orders, of the half and quarter
page order. a half million dollar company
has been organized to push weekly illus
trated periodical, known as The Illustrated
u-orId'S Fair, the aim of which is to make a
high class magazine contributed to by the
best of writers, but devoted first and fore
most to booming the Worlds Fair. The
publishers give away over eighty thousand
dollars in premiums to their subscribers to
start the scheme rolling, the plan being to
allow each subscriber to guess on the popu-
lat1on of the whole of the United States,
any state or territory, or any of the big
cities, the best guesses to receive the high
est prizes. Chicago will handle the Worlds
Fair as she does everything agniiicently,
and her first step shows she fully realizes
the magnitude Of her task,

UNION PACIFIC EXTENSION.

TIE HERALD learned long ago to place
very little confidence in what railroad men
say concerning railways, especially when
they are speaking of roads in which they
are interested. The average official seems
to regard it as part of his duties to mislead
newspapers and the public concerning his
road, and if he should ever. through for
getfulness or indiscretion, tell the exact
truth, he is very apt to deny it fatty, or
swear the newspaper reporter to secresy
We don't know why this should be SO, and
never hope TO learn; we only know that it
is so.
Because of this popularity of railway
people, we take no stock in what Mr..
SIDNEY DILLON said to our New York cor
respondent on Friday, the conversation be-
ingreported in Saturday sHERALD, concern
ing the Union Pacific. Mr.. DILLON said
that company was not going to build to the
coast, that the company ''has enough to at
tend to what it has at present." and SO on.
Taking the gentleman "by contraries," as
we have the right to take him, the Union
Pacific will go to the Pacific and to San
Francisco about as rapidly as it can con-
struct line with due regard for economy.
Indeed, is tnot already going west at good
speed. about twenty-five miles of grade a
month being thrown up2 To say that the
line will be extended to Phoebe and there
stop short is to say that ignorance and in
competency are in control of the affairs of
