cater for herself as far as sugar is
concerned, but has begun to success
fully compete with French and Aus
trian sugar IN the Levant markets.

VENDETTA IN CORSICA.
ancient, Bloody Custom OF That Coun-

Persons who derive their ideas Of
Corsica as 1t Is today from Prosper
Merimee's novel, Colombia" Will be
doomed to some disappointment. Man
ners and customs have changed great
deal in the island since the date,
shortly after the battle OF Waterloo,
when the gallant British officer and
his daughter visited Colombia in her
ancestral castle at Pietranera. The
vendetta, which is the theme Of that
thrilling story, has greatly dimin-

Gov. Beckham assigned reasons
for pardoning the noted gambler

reflected on the court and prose

do we think competition verv com
mendable iu the way of violating

TERMS ANNOUNCEMENT.
HOW TO ELEVATE
THE PRESS

Rev. Lyman Aooott- he
proprietor must put influence
above commercial success. lose
cure this influence the editor must
have both definite and intelligent
convictions on the subjects on
which he wishes to exert influence
He must be fair to those who do
not share his convictions. He
must convince his readers that he
is seeking the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth,
not a personal or sectarian advan-
tage. He must deal with topics
which are both OF real interest and
of real importance to the public.
Cardinal Gibbons-"Ihe intiu
ence of the press would be much
increased by strict adherence to
facts in recording events and by
scrupulous accuracy in reporting
the expressions Of public men.
Andrew Carnegie-"The paper
which obtains a reputation for
publishing authentic news and only
that which is fit to print, and which
editorially writes temperately, al
though always decidedly, will
steadily increase its influence.
Bishop Henry c. Potter-"By
the education and elevation Of its
readers. A decent, intelligent,
thoughtful constituency will com
pei a decent press.
By inference the kettle would
call the pot black. Remove the
beam from thy eye, brethren, that
you may better see the little mote
which is in thy brothers eye. For
twenty years and more we have
been identified with newspapers,
their publishers and editors, and
during that time we have taken no
tice of the conduct and methods Of
our brethren Of the quill and we
do not believe that they as body
in any way try to evade the truth.
But then there are men of the
highest calling, brethren of the
cloth, who in their sacred dealings
speak without sincerity, and the
most damaging phase oftheir work
is when called on to preach the fu-
neral Of man who has all his life
ignored the gospel teachings, but
because ofrespectable family con-
nection be lauds his works and car
ries his spirit up and above the
clouds, far beyond the stars, aran-
somed soul. on the theory that
may be, some how, somewhere he
accepted the gospels way This
in face Of the scripture, If you do
not confess me before men ! will
be ashamed of you before my Fa-
ther." Such talks are hurtful to
the high calling, and if hurtful here
are also to the religious and moral
sentiment of our country. II the
preachers would call things by
name. if they would talk of hell as
the lake OF fire and the unbeliev-
ers as lost and for ever damned in
that hell, there would be more Sc
riousness on religious matters, the
truth would spread to the earth $
remotest bound and every member
Of the Church Of the Living God
would be glad to be an active ad
junction to His kingdom Such
preachers are exceptions and of
such we write. And OF the rich
we would say lgclean thy own
premises, give unto those who
have not. The managers Of the
great journals would have nothing
but facts. It's for this they pay
out their money.
