METROPOLITAN JOURNALISM

A copy Of the REPUBLICAN LEADER, of
ST. Louis, Michigan, has been received
containing marked editorial in which
the editor of the News and Express i
sharpl, lectured for being the author of
a paragraph found in another paper,
with which the News and Express
had no more TO DO than did the REPUB.
LICAN LEADER man. In this case a
with his extreme free silver ideas our
friend Chase Is wrong in his asSump-
ton and therefore wrong in his couclu-
sions He is in earnest and hour,t,
but the possession of such charactcris-
tics only increase the degree Of his
wrong standpoint Cadillac News and
Express.
Well Brother Powers, we are glad
that you accord to u the virtues OF
honesty and earnestnesS, if you do give
Us the left-handed compliment OF being
wrong-headed. We are sorry that we
cannot accord to the great majority Of
metropolitan press the same virtues
This is not intended to hit you, Bro. Pow
ers for We can hardly speak of Cadillac
as metropolitan, if it does assume some
city airs. All you are accused of is of
being in bad company; your motives
are not questioned But it is the
shame of modern journalism that the
editor of the average metropolitan sheet
is mere tool used by the master build
Ell IN the financial office. The financial
head dictates everything. BE he mil
lionaire baker, millionaire gambler,
or millionaire scavenger, it matters not;
he has the dollars, and every energy is
bent to get more dollars. In some
cases it is by pandering to low taste
which revels in filth in others it is by
brazenly prostltuting the editorial col
umns, by selling them to the highest
bidder. 1t is vain to call this mud
Singing, vituperation, etc. 1t is the
truth which should be declared from
the house tops. Shylock has prosti-
tuted the metropolitan press with but
few notable exceptions. Think of the
magnanimity of the money power that
it should buy such great newspapers
as the New York Press and the Chicago
Times-Herald because they were lead
ing the people wrong on the money
question! 1t was, of course, the love
of the people that prompted Shylock To
do do this thing. The head baker OF
