A SuccessfuI Newspapers.
From the Findlay Ohio Republican.
One of the thriving newspapers of the
east is The Evening Star. published in
Washington, d. c. The management has
just completed large and welItequpped
building, which Is to be ths9future home of
this enterprising journal In its announce
ment editorially The Evening Starysays tina t
1t has adhered to a high Journalistic stand
ard and proposed that it's influence upon
the community in which 1t was printed
should be wholesome and to this end while
ton to print the news, its policy has been
scrupulously to exclude objectionable mat
ter from all parts of the pa per, from atiyer-
Using, news and editorial columns alike
1t is gratifying to note that there is a
gradual improvement in the moral tone of
newspapers. 1t is a mistaken notion on
the part of many publishers that readers
want the sensational in preference to facts
readers do not want the happenings of the
day related in distorted, dramatic express
sions and mutilated grammar. The Star
does not do this. hence the success and
popularity of this newspaper.

Dignifed. Conservative, Ably Con-
Quoted.
From the Army an. Navy Register.
The Washington Evening Star one of the
most dignified. conservative, respectable
and ably conducted journals In the United
States. has completed new building which
will be occupied by its editorial and me-
chanical departments. The structure itself
is quite as much an architectural adorn-
ment to the nations capital as the paper
is q credit to the journalism of the coun-
try. Were all newspapers conducted on the
broad, liberal and just lines which charac-
terize the editorial policy of the Washing
ton Evening Star there would be less oc-
cas1on in our country to feel that the influ-
ence of the newspaper Is waning or that it
is less a molder of public opinion than a
purveyor of sensational slush. The Wash
ington Evening Star has been especially
fair in its editorial treatment of service
topics and reliable and intelligent in its
chronicling of service news. The success
which has attended the paper is eminently
deserved
