Since that trip of the Oregon few
OF the men who were on her at the
time have been calling him Fresh
water" Clark, but the name will not
go" The reason for it's existence is
to be found in the fact that on that
long voyage not one of the officers or
the men had drink of fresh water
while on the ship unless he stole it.
Soon after starting Clark put up an
order that only distilled water should
be used for drinking and toilet pur-
poses. The water that had been salt
was needed for what, to Clark was
a more important purpose. He needed
1t in the boilers of the ship, and into
the boilers 1t went. That did not serve
to make the captain popular, but it
made 1t possible for the Oregon to go
on duty with Sampson without going
into dry dock to have her boilers over
hauled. No ship ever made such
long voyage and was. able to go out
and make almost as great speed as
she did on her trial trip. The captain
also made the men in the engine rooms
do lot of hard work on the famous
cruise for which he received many a
curse while the ship was going under
forced draught through the tropics.
But after 1t was all over there was
no crew that had more hearty good
will for their commander than the
men of the Oregon had for brave and
brainy Captain Clark.

OGE VIEW or THE NEMSpApER.

The Knoxville Sentinel contains
the following very sensible edito-
rial on newspapers, and how q
certain class views them.
1t is astonishing how the public
looks on the newspaper as free
horse to be ridden to death. Peo-
pie will pay money for a band,
for lights, janitor, go to a Job
printing office and buy thousands
OF dodgers, pay boys to deliver
them, pay performers in the en-
tertainment, if they are profess
slonals, or pay some manager to
get up the affair and give him a
large percentage of the receipts,
pay all their bills, in fact pay for
everything and for every kind of
advertising except that which is
most valuable to them, to-wit,
newspaper advertising. And if
the newspaper is unwilling to de-
vote more notice to such enter
tainment than liberal news no.
tees, it comes in for much abuse.
And yet, why should not the news
paper charge for its advertising
space just as the owner of the hall
charges for its rent, the bill board
man charges for the use of his
bill boards, the photographers
charge for furnishing the posters,
the job printing office charges for
the dodgers and the outside par
ties charge for their services.
The newspaper has only two
sources of revenue. One is sub
scriptlon, the other advertising.
The subscriptions to newspapers
are so cheap that they little more
than pay the cost of the white pa
per. A newspaper would soon
suspend if it did not realize con-
siderable revenue from it's adver-
Using columns. A newspaper must
print the news in order to hold
subscribers. To obtain this news
is a very expensive matter. 1t

matter in order to yield a suffi-
Gent revenue for these purposes.
