oRAw,Ke THE CROWD.

Sensationalism is not a monopoly
Of the newspapers and yellow pulpitees-
ing is quite as common as yellow jour
ualism. DR.. Parkhurst of New York. is
an Illustration of this allegation. His
latest bid for notorlety was made in his
sermon last Sunday when after saying
many excellent things he attributed the
Chicago theater calamity to the AL
mighty as Gods fire." DR.. Park
hurst knew better than that. He knew
that the tender heart of the word
would repudiate an assertion that the
names which destroyed nearly 700 peo-
pie and cast shadow of personal grief
over thousands of homes was an act
OF the power which created them. II
d Incredible that DR.. Parkhurst be-
lieved 1t true. Apparently he needed 4
red line across the first page of his
sermon and with the instinct OF the
sensationalis, seized his opportunity.
Sensational sermons and assertions
are TO the pulpit what staring head
lines are TO the sensational press. They
nGtrxets attention and cause talk, ana
talk and attention are the goals OF the
advertiser in one f,eld or another. They
draw the crowd. But they fail to create
4 confidence or breed respect.
The rostrum and the press are tn )
two great vehicles OF publicity and
opinion. The newspaper should be
truthful in its daily record of events,
honest In its estimate Of men and MAJ
tiers and sincere in its opinions. Its
editorial expression should be beyond
purchase by present payment or flu
ture promise. There is no place in the
columns OF the high class newspaper for
the bass drum banalites OF the cheap
sensationalist.
So the preacher. The cheap meth
DDS Of the street fakir are not for thu
pulpit His position as teacher denies
him the tambourine and the triangle.
To traw a crowd is not the real mission
OF the pulpit or OF the press. Their
freedom Is given to teach not to amuse
and bold sensationalism is a crime
against the higher duties OF an edu-
Gator.

WILLIAMS pRonunc,Amexro.

John Sharp Williams, congre ssman
from Mississippi. and the acknowledged
leader of the minority of the house o,
representatives, contributes to Every
body's Magazine, an article on the is-
sues likely to be raised by his party in
the next presidential campaign. Mr..
reinstatement may be taken as au-
thoritative, coming as 1t does from the
manager OF the active democracy ana
will be OF interest to politicians and
people. irrespective of party affilia-
lions. Trusts, the tarifr and the Phil
ippines. with an arraignment of the
international policy OF the government.
more especially in the matter of the
Panaman revolution, make up the list
Of major issues upon which the democ-
racy will base Its appeal for power.
Mr.. Williams reasserts the demo-
cratic belief that protection is wrong
in principle-"morally wrong-a pros
titution Of government to private ends,
system Of taxation, whereby many
are robbed in order that few may be
hot-housed by legislation into artih-
clal prosperity"
The ultimate good of democratic
striving Is toward tariff for revenue
only. The ideal democratic tariff, ac-
cording to Mr.. Williams. ",sould con-
sist in levying import duties upon all,
or nearly all. imports. dividing them,
however, into three classes: first, ne
eeasaries of life and necessaries of in
Austries: secondly. comforts; and
third. Injuries" Still Mr.. Williams
would move carefully and mot strike
down in q revolutionary way over
night as the Germans say-all the
scafYolding which the false system has
erected"
The effectiveness and activity of the
present republican administration has
evidently embarrassed Mr.. Williams.
HIS manner is mild and almost apollo

Republican that i, is making 8, dam
gerous admission when it asserts that
a man who wants 10 boom his property

tior Canada The facts are against the
Republican,. for the Canadians are all
stiff tariff men and are dead against
free ,rads with the United States
which shows that they do not share
the Republicans view. The farmers OF
! Iowa never favored free trade With
Europe In order TO boom Iowa land,
WAY should the farmers of Canada, or
Hand owners in Canada. favor free
trade with the United States In order
20 boom Canadian land? The Repub-
Iowa republicans who favor Canadian
reciprocity is prama facie untenab!s.
