TOO MANY NEWSPAPERS.
Only Just So Many Can Make | De
 cent Living.

cent LlFlQg-
 Two significant and wholesome newspaper changes Were announced in this state last week. says the Hart ford Courant. In Bridgeport the two morning papers. the Telegram and the Union. have consolidated and, begin ming to-day. are tue Telegram | nion: and in New Britain the News. q little local paper, has abandoned publica- tion.
 There are too many newspapers. too many for the interests Of newspaper publishing and too many for the good of the public \ community will spend only about so much on news papers. by way of purchase or of ad- vertising. If the papers are too nu merous, the amount distributed among them is too small to enable them to do their work to best advantage and they fall into unhealthy competition. scram- bling for sensations. more eager to as toniSh the public than to inform them. All this is delnoralizine alike to public and papers. There should be active competition, to keep papers awake and alert, but q competition that goes so far as to lower the tone Of the local press is a public misfortune. When ever signs appear that the extension of newspapers in communities well sup piled has failed. that fact may be talk en as a wholesome indication.
 It is q melancholy fact that the ten dency is always downwards. Print something off color and there is a dead rush for the paper. Not so very long ago hereabouts. when a gross i'm propriety was perpetrated through q typographical error in q local paper and efforts were made to suppress the edition, copies went up to two dollars apiece in a few hours. People who would go across the street to avoid hearing something improper will buy q paper that has it in print.
 That is what the conscientious edi- tor has all the time to contend with. He makes his paper as good as the public will let him. But he knows all the time that he would sell more pa- | pers if he made them not so good. and knows, too. that there are advertisers Y who regard only circulation and base ltheir estimate of success in journal ism entirely on the number of papers \ printed, regardless of what is in them |i5Or where they circulate. The more jpapers there are in community the [(gfeater the pressure to catch readers by a lowering of tone and by sensa- 7, fi0nalism. For this reason conSolida- { lions and valedictories are not signs of !; any backward tendency. Nobody need 1 ever fear newspaper trust. There ! are too many opinions in the world to l kermit that. But smaller number of 1apers and those larger and stronger. EleAnef and more Independent, will not fe feckoned change for the worse.

Percheron horse, and was brought to this
country in 1898. If you like to look at
4 nice horse, it will pay you to see this
one. Farmers who want to raise the

Last weeks Plaindealer contained an
item about the discovery of lead ore on
the Wolken farm, in Putnam township.
This discovery is no new thing. folly
Bump and some companions found spec
linens of the ore there over thirty years
ago. He says they picked it up by the
hatful. There are other places i'll the
county where lead has been fonnd. Years
ago, an odd old genius by the name OF
Wheeler lived in Greeley. He was quite
hunter, using rifle, and he made his
own bullets. When asked where he got
his lead, he said he got it "over among
the hills east OF town." but never gave
the exact location. 1t was, presumably
on w. H. McClure's farm. Some day, we
believe, mineral in paying quantities
will be found in Anderson county, The
indications are certainly good.

TIE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET,
Wheat Advances on the Reports of
UafayorabIe weather.

CHICAGO, June Wheat was strong,
advancing a cent, closing at the top.
There was practically no rain nor indi-
cations of any in the Northwest. Advices
from the Southwest continue less favor
able. Shorts covered freely, and there
was liberal commission house profit tax
ing. The market showed a broadening
tendency, absorbing the above sales
readily.
Corn developed considerable strength.
Shorts, however. were the principal buy
ers of July. There was liberal local buy
ing of September on the report that the
rainfall at many Western points this
spring is considerably below the normal
The strength in wheat was a factor.
Oats were strong. The feature of the
market was the heavy selling of Septem-
Der by the American Cereal Company
The market took these offerings splendid
ly, the buying being principally for local
professionals.
Provisions were about steady, held so
by the influence of stronger grain mar
kets. Notwithstanding the small decline
in the hog market, there is prospect of a
liberal movement next week. Aside from
some investment demand for lard, the
trade was mainly between packers.

so IT is said, to make any extra disburse
ment contemplated later in the year.

The general trend of prices in other
parts of the local list has been upward
during the past week, though not in an
important way. Fractions have been add
ed to a number of prices. Capital Trac-
ton bonds are quoted below 10S bid for
the first time recently. The stock. on the
other hand, is fractionaily higher than II
was a week ago. Telephone stock has re-
covered a point from the extreme low
price reached after the decision of the
District Court of Appeals was announced.
Lanston and Washington Gas are frac-
tionally higher. The graphophOne stocks
have been quiet.

stock market swung into a big Dun move

The reason for the advance seems to be
simply the desire of investors to get back
stock that they had sold out. a considera-
Bile block was sold as recently as the pan
ic in the early part of May. owing to losses
made by Mergenthaler investors in speeu-
Iation in New York securities. This sell
ing caused a break in the price that did
not seem in the least warranted by the
reports of the company's business. Now
what might be called the recoil Is oc-

company Is that its earnings are lncreas-

particularly interesting, as it was in that
city that the jump of ten points first

have had the lead of Washington in the
stock. On Thursday and Friday the sales
there amounted to more than 400 shares
and on the first of those days the price

account for this phenomenon, but none
