Editorial Influence.

Under the conditions of life in the
modern civilized world, there is no vo-
cation which offers to those in it one
1.-THE of the power and influence that
journalism offers to q man of force,
ability and conviction. The lawyer
speaks to the limited audience of the
court room, and to win the particular
case upon which he is engaged is, as a
rule, the goal of his efforts. Even the
most popular minister addresses his
thoughts to congregation that rarely
reaches thousand. And the voice of
the orator and politician dies out in
faint echoes from very narrow hori-
zon, unless it Is reverberated by the
newspapers. The audience addressed
by the Journalist is immeasurably wi
der, and he has the advantage of reach
ing it day after day and week by week,
with the multiplied force and effect of
what Shakespeare called "damnable it.
eration." No sane man in our day
doubts the influence of the journalist,
