Col. Bob White of the Mexico
LEDGER says that an ADLER and bet
ter class of men than was formerly
the case are now editing the Mis-
souri, newspapers. This is a cheer
full bit of information. Many OF the
editors are undoubtedly a credit to
the state, but the newspaper profess
sion, like everything else, produces
some freaks. The man who runs a
newspaper largely for the purpose Of
advertising himself and puffs only
those who puff him has no more
business with a paper than Satan
has with a powder magazine. A
newspaper ought to give the news,
and when an editor imagines that
everything which tickles his own
vanity is interesting to his afflicted
readers, it is plain that he should
seek some other calling. Col. Bob,
who is a newspaper man in fact as
| well as in name and an all-around
good fellow, ought to write a paper
on this subject. He knows the
weak points in the profession and
could prescribe a tonic that would
doubtless tend to further elevate the
Missouri press.
