The changes made in the STATS of
leading newspapers as those at the head
of them die or retire from active SER
vice illustrate the transformation that
has taken place in Journalism. Men like
Greeley aud Bennett and Raymond and
Medill and Dana no longer build up
great enterprises by the force Of
strong personality. The newspaper alb
serbs the man: and work as excellent
as that OF these giants of the earlier
time Is done by men whose names are
little known outside of the city where
they live. Few. perhaps. outside of
their own Offices know who is now the
editor of the st. Louis Globe Democrat
or the Chicago Tribune or the Chicago
Record. The retirement of E. l.. God
kin from the New York Evening Post
leaves a man almost as weliknown, Mr..
Horace White, as its editor in chief.
His associate. who will no doubt in time
succeed to the post of supreme COM
mand, is one OF the best equipped and
most thoughtful editorial workers in
the country, Mr.. Edward p. Clark. of
Brooklyn. Mr.. Clark is Yale man,
trained in journalism on the Springfield
Republican under Sam Bowles. and has
been with the Evening Post for fifteen
years or more. He has done some
splendid work both as writer and In
the amassing Of facts that bear upon
current issues and controversies. Wide
ly as we differ from the Post In our
outlook upon politics and life, we recog-
nize Its high standing and great ability.
In the rise of men who can make great
newspapers without assuming greatness
for themselves is seen not the decline Of
prodigies but the wonderful elevation OF
the standard Of excellence and the level
of the highest proficiency in all profess
sional work in this country.

OF the people. he must have either su-
pineIy submitted. which would have
been a betrayal OF the interests which
the people had committed to his hands,
or have met the revolutionary conspir-
acy. conducted under the forms of the

doubtful constitutionality. As a man of
fierce and courage, feeling deeply the
responsibility OF the position with which
nc had been intrusted. he has chosen
the latter course. Whatever may he
the result OF the conflict in Kentucky.
the sole responsibility lies at the door
of the partisan majority in the Ken

the will OF the people and to usurp pow

ed and installed, and electing another
man to that high Office.

Bliss for Vice President.

OF the gentlemen who have been men
toned with favor by Republicans in
different parts OF the country as possi-
BILE candidates for the vice presidency,
none could command a heartier or more
enthusiastic support by the voters
OF the party than Cornelius N. Bliss,
formerly secretary OF the interior.
We are convinced that Mr.. Bliss
IL in all respects an ideal man for
position whose dignity and Importance
have not been lost despite its relatively
small influence in shaping legislation.
Mr.. Bliss Is man OF whom even his
enemies. II he have any, cannot say
derogatory word. He is business man
OF fine ability. He Is a courteous and
polished gentleman. He is a man Of
great executive force. and would be at
his best as presiding officer of a digni-
fed deliberative body. He has the COM
bination In his disposition OF firmness
with gentieness and consideration that
enables him to win the respect of politi-
cal friend and foe alike. His service in
the cabinet is another high qualifica-
ton, and his intimate acquaintance and
sympathy with the West and Its inter-
ests would make him more acceptable
to Western voters than any other East
ern man whom the convention might
select.
Many Republicans are of the opinion
that to New York should be assigned
the second place upon the ticket. and
Mr.. Bliss il clearly the most available
man from that state. Gov. Roosevelt
does not wish II. and Secretary Root
believes rightly that his place is at the
head Of the great department which
he is administering with such skill and
fidelity that no word OF criticism Is
heard even from a rancorous and UNI
scrupulous opposition. Mr. Bliss is the
only other New Yorker who could be
considered: and in case OF his nominal
ton the honor to his state would he
matched by the satisfaction OF this part
OF the country. which feels almost as II
II might claim him for its own. No
other man has been suggested who
seems to us 10 combine so entirely. both
personally and politically, the elements
that would give strength to the ticket,
dignity TO the office and pleasure to the
people.

ASSASSINATION IN KENTUCKY.
Leading Democratic Newspaper
Comments on the Deed.
Brooklyn Eagle.

Brooklyn Eagle.
ANY comment at this time should go
with the fact that Kentuckians. whether
Republicans or Democrats. and Republi-
cans quite as much as Democrats, num-
Der the determination of opponents
among the resources of political strife.
when In that strife is involved, in the
opinion of those concerned. either right
or Honor" The chief judge OF the high
est court in Kentucky was, not long ago,
killed with a rifle in open court by an
incensed litigant, and his murderer, IL
he received any punishment at all. was
soon thereafter set at large. The Repub-
licans of Kentucky have not dissembed
their resolution not to be robbed OF the
election, and not to let the men whom
they elected be counted out. In hardly
any other American state would the ef-
fort OF intention to count out really elect
ed opponents be more likely to be tenn
pered or chilled by the probability OF as
sassination.
Awful and deplorable as the event is,
complicating and tragic as the further
consequences of 1t may be- any news
paper would fail in its duty which did
not point out that the man shot today
himself inflicted death on political OPP
ponent in political quarrel not a long
while ago. That opponent. man named
Sanford, wrote or caused to be written
an arraignment of Goebel In a Covington
newspaper. for which Goebel called him
to account. When they met Goebel killed
him. and the explanation was that he
believed the man was In the act of draw
ing a weapon upon him" AS investiga-
ton showed that the man had no weapon
on his person the claim that he intended
to draw one was not sustained. Never
theless. Goebers popularity did not seem
TO be impaired and his leadership of des-
perate and reactionary forces In the Ken
lucky Democracy was apparently
strengthened.
He was also the author of the election
law which bears his name. 1t was a
close copy of the act by which the votes
of Louisiana and of Florida were stolen
from Samuel j. Tilden in 1876 and count
ed for r. B. Hayes. 1t is. as its Repub-
lican originals were, probably the most
internal formulation of power for office
stealing purposes which the ingenuity of
nen and of devils has been able to de-
wise for use on the earth.

"Nonpartisan Reform

Alas for the vanity of everything I'M

san" movement The ears OF our peo-
pie have been belabored with the pro-
testations OF these persons. insisting
that they had cut loose from the old
parties because those were not virtu-
Gus enough for them. They had to flock
all by themselves in order to make sure
OF an atmosphere of purity delicate
enough for their superior virtue. They
could not get good government and
clean politics without getting away
from the old organizations and all their
wickedness. And now we learn that
they have been working the First ward
with all diligence and with a method
that no political party would dare to
adopt.

than the arrogance OF any party ma
