"should paid announcements Of can
dldates be accompanied by compli'
mentary n~otices7" was the topic
treated at q late meeting Of the North
eastern Missouri Press Association By
R. A. Wilson, Of the Moberly Monitor
brother Of e. 8. Wilson, OF Mexico.
Mr.. Wilson took the ground that
they should not; that the practice Of
indiscriminate putting was dishonest;
that II crippled and c~heapened the in
huence OF a newspaper, and emascu-
lated sincere and honest compliments,
This paper brought out quite q spirited
discussion, the majority taking the
ground that the practice OF paying
compliments was carried to excess,
and that there was much room for i'm
movement.
