editorial cap city. lie was anxious TO
do his best in every emergency, and
leave the consequences to a higher
power. From the standpoint of per
sonal comeor. it would have been better
for this brother of ours not to have
been buidened with gentle spirit
sensitive to unjust attack, and con-
seriousness of unfeeling neglect. lie
could fight like the mailed night at the
sepulchre of his Lord in vindicating
his convictions or defending the charac-
ter OF one wrongfully assailed, but he
could not escape the fortunes inflicted
upon sensitive nature by the despite
able II ge ,uity of petty meanness. lie
was Strong enough to do the right as he
understood the right, by friend or by
foe, but was never proof against the
stlngs of selfishness and ingratitude.
His great soul shrank not from the
demands OF duty be the cost what it
might.
Mr.. Meyers was particularly strong
IN the sturdy editorial virtues of
honesty aud courage. He always told
the truth as he saw it. AS man wise
in his generation he did not assume to
tell the whole trnth-editors could not
do this and live-but he would not for
his party or for any personal advantage
depart from strict line of veracity.
He had no patience with shams. He
could not endure hypocrisy. lie never
used language to conceal thought. He
never posed. One of the most fearless
of editors, he was never foolhardy nor
h'ppant. His independence was never

Mr.. Meyers came directly to Denison,
where he bought the Review, and be-

OF Importance in his adopted state. In
both fields he was a unique figure His
vigorous writing, his independence of
thought and marked Individuality was
unlike anything conspicuously current.
His frank, blunt expression was not
always understood. While he always
meant to be right and never unreasoii-
able, he could not accommodate him

orders from any committee OF any boss.
lie insisted upon the right to exercise
his own judgment within the lines of

yield more gracefully. When the great
fight for prohibition was OH in this
