THE NEWSPAPER,
What Is Expected OF It by the Insist
ent Public.

Adrian (NIich) Telegram.
The public is insistent in its
demands. 1t expects the news
paper to be a pack horse, a d1 ay
team, a ditch digger, a gas IN
spector, a water testor, a special
policeman, a detective bureau,
dog chaser, a sidewalk hxer,
COW finder, a thiefcatcher, a bust
ness maker, a city pusher, a house
seller, a paving Inspector, sew
er director, pocketbook finder,
lost article hunter, council reg
ulator, fraud discoverer, panic
preventer, obituary preacher,
chief tahy pourer at weddings
and social functions, sporting
mascot, fish liar, big egg prevari-
Gator, snake story expander,
Judge on earliest gardens, bust
ness boomer, husband finder,
sweetheart securer, and general
all round man for the commu-
nifty. +
"In fact, if there is a single
thing Of importance to human
life ana human@happiness that
doesn't go through the news
paper it has never>yet been dis
covered, 1t touches every feat
ure of human endeavor from the
cradle to the grave. It smiles
with those who smile and weeps
with those who mourn. 1t IS
everywhere all the time the most
busy, the most useful of all pub
E1ic agencies do. Sometimes it is
dishonest. But it stands out so
in the glare of the. arc light OF
publicity. chat it can but half
succeed if dishonest, and then
only for a brief time .
Is this a plant? Not at all. 1t
is a psalm ofrejoicing. Thenews-
paper likes it. 1t enjoys the
work. It has no desire for rich
es, 1t has no ambition for place
or power. Thes>true newspaper
is not an office hunter or aspoils
grabber. 1t hasno use for wealth
because it would have no timeto
spend and enjoy the spending.
The real newspaper has one alb
sorbing ambition, one constant
aim, one ardent desire, and that.
is to he ueeful, helpful to the
community. It wants 10 be the
servant of the people, 1t wants
to make itself a .powef by the
service it renders. by tic good it
does. And yet there; are times
when even the newspaper rebels.
1t grows tired of service, wants
to take a day off and go fishing
and this season of the year al
ways brings around that tired
feeling that nothing short of an
outing will relieve. And that
shows that the newspaper is
human after all.

Arthur I. Dodge the 'Sentinel's
Washington correspondent, has
this to say concerning United
States Senators Spooner and
Quarels and Representative
Brown of this Congressional dis
trict:
The growing influence Of North
western senator's and represent
atives on national legislation
was strikingly manifested in the
session of congress which has
just adjourned. In the West.
seats in both houses of congress
have been for years distributed
as party honors, and only in is
olated cases have men from the
Mississippi river country and
the far West been honored with
more than two termsln the low
er house Most of the North
western delegations as as at pres
ent constituted are composed OF
men who have been here for sew
eral years. Their continuity of
assrYice. and legislative expert
efice placed then on important
committees, and as a result the
great North west has voice in
all of the important problems
presented for solution. The
name of Senator John G. Spoon
er has become a houseko hjword
in the United States during the
lpast few years, He was I'M
doubtedly the most CONSPICUOUS
figure IN the senate during the
session. His speeches were.wide-
ly read, and on all Important
questions ofparty or administra-
tive policy his CONSUL was
sought. He offered a compro-
mise on the Cuban bill, and his
amendment for solving the canal
questions was adopted. The
junior senator from Wisconsin,
Mr.. Quarles, although he las
served but two years, made a
splendid record during the. ses-
sion. He took an important
part in the. passage of the anti
.oleomargarine bill, the depart
ment Of commerce bill and the
important committee on census,
of which he Is chairman, report
ed the measure making the census
bureau a permanent institution.
Mr.. Quarles gives promise. of a
very successful future in the up
per house OF congress. Repre-
sentative Brown of Rhinelander
is the most recent acquisition in
the Wisconsin delegation. Mr..
Brown has medestly refralned
from participatingin the debates
on great legislative problems.
He has DEVOTED his probationary
period to . strict attention to
tREal matters in which his dis
Irict is Interested Wausau Rec

President Said to Have Dis.
approved Of Some Of Sec
retary Shaw's Acts.

Washington. Sept. 26.-There have been
frequent rumors of late that Secretary
Shaw was about to resign from the cabi-
net, and as frequent denials from the
secretary himself. The report of his plan
to retire was published the other day and
emphatically denied by him.
A special 20 the Evening Sun last night

Mr.. Shaw to retire, and he is not anxious
To leave the cabinet. there is undoubtedly
friction between them which may lead
to open rupture.
Specific cases were given where the
president did not agree with the acts ,r
policy of his cabinet officer. To this MIR.
Shaw made this reply yesterday;
THE president and the secretary OF the
treasury are in thorough harmony. OF
this there need be no doubt, II the
speeches made by the president and the
secretary will be read and compared. in
stead of the headlines
In spite OF this denial there are many
who believe that discord does exist and
that 1t will soon manifest itself. 1t is
| said that not more than three months
after the appointment OF Mr.. Shaw as
head of the treasury. those In close ad-
| ministration circles suspected that tn,
president was not altogether pleased with
! the way in which Mr. Shaw was
conducting the affairs of his office.
Decisions concerning the personal bag
