The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1903-06-03
Editorial Department
by F. w. Meyers
A VETERAN EDITORS IDEALS.

The Denison Review last week paid
for over twenty years was editor of
that paper. The son who is a worthy
successor of the esteemed veteran whose
memory is so dearly cherished, has
shetched with delicate pathos the salt
ent features of j. Fred Meyers AS we
recall the most noticeable phrases of
the editorial work Of j. Fred Meyers,
we do not classify him among the "old
school of Journalists, type rapidly
passing" He, on the other hand, lived
ahead of his age. He was a prophet
rather than an antiquarian. His style
of country journalism conforms more
with the present vogue than the past,
and his ideals are being attained by
those who in his day failed to conceive
his lofty ideas of newspaper ethics.
He had high conception of his call
ing as an editor. He believed an editor
should be a thinker and a philosopher.
He should give public questions his
best thoughts, and conclusions should
be set forth with the most conscien-
tious regard for truth and logic. He
believed that the editor of country
weekly should be able to rise above the
average man and become teacher and
leader along lines of thought and in.
telligent direction of affairs. Nature
had dealt munlfcently with him, and
he was able to reach many of the heights
he sought to attain,
As the years go by country news
papers have continued to go in the di-
rection he pointed out. They have
come to pay more attention to public
thought, and their editorial columns
have gained in Importance in the dis
cussion Of public questions, j. Fred
Meyers was no dreamer when he insi: t..
ed that the avenues of thought to aud
from the masses of the people We're
through the weekly newspapers of our
state,
He took serious view Of his editor
ial work. He realized the grave re
sponsibility thrust upon a leader of
public sentiment, as he thought him
self to be, and he had neither space nor
disposition for levity When testing
brother wrote a parody on Mary Had
a Little Lamb, and credited the same
to his paper, he cut the paper off his
exchange list. He was not thin skinned:
he had lofty ideas Of his WORK as a
country editor, He felt Inundated to
see the doggeral make the sounds cred
tied to the Denson Review.
He knew what it was to beware Of
