BRITISH PRESS CENSORS.

| RIIlSH military authorities have complete con-
} troll over the telegraph lines connecting South
Africa with the rest OF the world and accord
ingly can regulate the transmission OF news to su;t
themselves. They have established censorship
which amounts to almost complete suppression OF
news, and as result very little is known concerning
the progress OF the war and the comparative sue
cesses OF the two forces
When press censorship was established by our
military authorities during the war with Spain the
British never weared in pointing out the follv of
suppressing the truth They condemned the cen
sorshp with all the warmth and zeal of candid friends
They informed us again and again that no such cen
sorship would be permitted to British generals by
the truth-loving British people. Very quickly the
tune OF the critics has changed American censor
ship was mild IN comparison with the extent to which
the suppression OF news has been carried out by the
orders OF General Butler, and yet the British public
that was so clamorous against the American military
authorities is silent impotent under the denial ~

in which that public is far more interested than it was
in the fight between ourselves and Spain
What the British officials hope to gain by deprivine

about the war is not wholly a matter Of conjecture

not popular. strong party in Great Britain. COM
prising not only the Liberals who were naturally
opposed to the Salisbury Ministry, but host OF men
OF emInence in science, art and letters was by no
means pleased with the aggressive tactics OF Chamber
LAIN, and was engaged in active campaign OF edu
cation among the people when the war broke out It
has therefore been felt necessary by the Ministry 70
avoid anything likely to make the war unpopular
When Parliament was called together TO vote sun
plies care was taken not to ask for an increase Of
regular taxes or the imposition of war tax lest that
might render the taxpayers unwilling to proong the
conflict victory would of course stimulate en-
thusiasm and make the war popular nothing else

THE CALLS POSITION
ON THE PACIFIC COAST
.'Pacinc Coast Advertlsing."

The Call as an advertising medium for
legitimate goods is without superior on
the Pacific Coast, for the reason that II
offers quantity and quality. The daily
average Of circulation during the first six
months Of lss9 was 1882, almost entirely
in the homes of people OF discrimination.
The paper, IN the point OF artistic ar
rangement and the selection Of literary
attractions. is easily in the lead Of all
competitors. The Sunday edition OF The
Call presents each week pages Of half
tone illustration which is not exceEled
even in the best monthly magazine. In
every issue The Call is foremost in tele-
graph news service. Its great scoop In
regard TO the Samoan Commission agree
ment was one Of the most brilliant pieces
OF nevys-getting on record. The Call dares
10 tell the truth at all times, TO print all
the news that is news; stands for pure
politics in city. State and nation.

st. Patrick was humanitarian in
the broa1est sense, and all the lands
and annui.ies bestowed upon him land
they were great were devoted to
charity and the founding Of churches,
monastic schools and cloisters, Of which
both sexes were the beneGciaries with.
out distinction.
One Of the customs religiously bo-
served on the festival is to wear sprig
Of evergreen, green ribbon or some
thing of that order on the lapel OF
the coat, emblematic Of the fact that
the memory Of the great Irish patron
saint is still fresh in the hearts of the
Irish, and out Of respect to the Irish
people themselves, who so ardently
revere and love his memory.
There are many foolish traditions
regarding the miraculous powers q
the patron saint, but most OF these
have given way to higher apprecia
tion Of his character and life work
until the present age has come to re
gard him only as great Humanitarian
who devoted his life, fortune and tai

race from a state OF barbsrism.
