All Have Their Fun.

Everything in nature INDUCES in
amusement of some kind. The light
nings play, the winds whistle, the
thunders roll, the snow flies, the rills
and cascades sing and dance, the
waves leap, the fields smile, the vines
creep and run, and the buds shoot.
But some of them have their seasons
of melancholy. The tempests moan,
the zephyrs sigh, the brooks murmur,
and the mountains look blue.

ANoT HER TERM FOR CLEVELAND,
EpIroR CoLuMBIAN.

EDITOR COLUMBIAN,
Sir 81 do not know, nor does any
man know who will be nominated by
the Democrats at Chicago. If Mr..
Cleveland should be, there will be
muttering and growing and bowling
by the Republicans about what they
will denominate third term, in will
ful forgetfulness of the fact that they
tried their best to give Gen. Grant
three successive terms, and Of the
further fact that the nomination and
election of Mr.. Cleveland would not
be three successive terms.
But even if it were, no man will
contend that the people of the United
States have, by any law or usage, cut
themselves off from calling to their aid
and making use of the services of an
honest and honorable and trustworthy
man for as many terms or years as
they may choose to employ him.
Such a usage or law would be foolish
in the extreme.
In the Legislature, in Congress, in
the Senate of the United States. no
such rule exists, and it is we'll known
that the longer man remains in his
place, the more efficiently and salts
factorily he can perform all the duties
devolving upon him. Mr.. Benton
was for thirty yerrs in the United
States Senate, consecutively, and
many gentlemen have been in the
lower House almost as long. Mr..
Monroe filled every legislative and
executive office, from the lowest to
the highest. Mr.. Adams did almost
the same, and returned to Congress
after his presidential term.
The people will insist upon having
competent public servants when they
can get them and keep them for two
terms, or three or FIVE if they choose
and no party cry shall balk theil
humor. AT present, Mr.. CLEVELAND
seems to be the logical Democratic
candidate, and the "Unterrihed De
mocracy' will be very likely to say SC
at Chicago, and if they do they will
go in and win. JOHN G. FREEZE.

PERSONAL NEWSPAPERING,

The modern newspaper is a power for
good OF evil. 1t is the great university from
which the masses Of the people draw knowl-
edge and by which they are educated to
think and form opinions. When this power
is debased the consequences for evil are in.
calculable.
The growing tendency manifested in GER
tain newspaper Offices to impale upon the
point Of publicity the personal character Of
mer in public life is a tendency which, if
persisted in, will destroy the power for good
lodged in the clean newspapers.
Fake journalism is in no manifestation so
abominable as in its reckless disregard of
personal sanctities. To satisfy prurient
craving for the most sensational features of
life, these sheets, some Of them boasting
circulation, do not hesitate to invade every
human relation and to hold up in winged
paragraph and pointed innuendo the most
sacred priyacies. II is little wonder that
men shrink from an honorable contest for
public ofhce when they realize that they may
become the victims Of one OF these all too
many newspaper vultures that infest the
earth. Criticism Of men or methods is ad.
missible, nay, imperative hut the line should
be drawn against the invasion of a mans
personal life unless in absolute defense Of a
public principle.
There is spirit of invidious personality
apparent in much that passes for great news.

This spirit should be watched, and no mis-.
taken sense Of journalistic courtesy should
prevent the honest newspapers from entering

Fakeism ought to he driven from every
