CORPORATION NEWSPAPERS.

There is some disposition on the
part of our contemporaries to find
fault with us because we have drawn
a distinction between newspapers
which are corporate property, and
newspapers which are Individual prop
erty. In regard to the influence
which a newpsper has, or ought to
have, which is run by corporation
and one which is run by an individual,
we havs this to say; that as gathereT
OF news the corporation paper in a
large city is generally the equal if not
the superior of the newspaper owned
by the individual, but as a safe guide
and adviser the newspaper of the IN
dividual is generally far in advance
OF the other. A newspaper run by a
syndicate has editorials written &C.
cording to order, it grinds them out
machine fashion, 1t has no convictions,
no individuality, no fixed policy, no
independence of thought or action.
Ii today corporations wish q certain
policy advocated the corporation paper
will advocate it. 1t can take money
to advocate editorially or by adver-
tisement any scheme, any doctrine.
any policy. No one can complain.
The newspaper is out for profit. II
one editorial writer does not suit it, it
secures one that does. The editorial
writers ask the manager which side of
this or that question they must write
upon. The staff meets say. every
and discusses the future pol
icy and conduct of the paper, whether
it has been too rash in this advocacy, or
not rash enough. whether it is popu-
lar to do this, or that, and finally which
side Of question will yield the largest
profit to the paperp
1t Is Henry Watterson who has given
by bis personality strength to the
Louisville Courier j Journal, Dana gave
t to the New York Sun, and Henry
W. Grady to the Atlanta Constitution.
Now these papers may have been print
I'd by a company, but It was recogniz-
ID that their policy was dictated by
The great men at their head, whoever
their real owners. But when men
whose principle business is managing
railroads or banks are known to own
Ind dictate the policy of newspapers,
What is there to make any one read
he editorials and look to them as the
roper guide? What is there to give
hose papers following, or make them !
