OUR CONTEMPORARY, THE
DAILY NEWS.

After two days deliberation, the Daily
News decides that it did not misrepre-
sent Mr.. Bryan, or in other words that
it did not say that what it said was
so. But let the News speak;
The Journal should be able to find
enough in The News's political philo-
sophy to disagree with and complain
about without misquoting and misrep-
resenting as for instance the assertion
that the News contained a statement
to the effect that Mr.. Bryan had de-
clared President Roosevelt to be the
greatest president the country ever
had"
The Journal went back to January
il to get this morsel to chew on.
but got 1t wrong. The matter quoted
In the News Of that date was to the
effect that Mr.. Bryan had spoken of
Roosevelt as one who could be re-
garded as the greatest president Of
the United States" That is not say
ing that Mr.. Bryan so regarded him.
The News adopts a rather round
about way of taking back what it said.
but that way is better than none a:
all, and is really better than the News
usually does. If the News had stop
ped with this, it would have done itself
credit, but it goes on to say:
The Journals statement, however.
that The News has always been a
regular and consistent imitator Of the
policy of its Chicago contemporary" is
frfU01nnc a 4 l.
to merit discussion.
However, If the News were dis
posed 10 seek political wisdom from
some source, 1t would about as soon
receive il from the big Chicago daily
as from the weekly publication eman-
ating from Lincoln, Nebraska, from
which The Journal will not deny that
it gets its inspiration.
This is a candid, though hardly a
creditable admission, that the News
would prefer to derive its political in
SEPARATION land Heaven knows it needs
inspiration Of some kind from a re-
publican rather than a democratic
source.
As to our contemporaries question
as TO why in fact should The Jour
nal insist on making an ass of itself?"
we have only to say that if it is i'm
possible to refer in any way to the
Daily News without laying oneself
open to the charge Of asininity land if
that is what our contemporary means
we really won't dispute its PROPOSE
tion,) The Journal will hereafter con-
fine itself to more dignifed and less
ssinine subjects

THE THEATRICAL sYNDIcATE's
DOUBTFUL EXPERIMENT.

The theatrical syndicate of New
York is just now engaged in the doubt
full experiment OF trying to shut out
from the theatres which it controls,
a certain newspaper theatrical critic
whom it does not like Commenting
on the case the Birmingham Age-Her-
aid says:
James Metcalfe, the editor and dra-
matte critic of Life, has been shut out
of all the theatres controlled by the
theatrical syndicate, and the battle
that has arisen between him and the
trust is a battle for the freedom of the
press in which all are interested.
Mr.. Metcalfe will no doubt test his
right to occupy seat he had paid for,
and the decision of the courts will be
awaited with interest. The trust is
advised by its lawyers that it can sell
a ticket calling for admission and the
use of particular seat, and yet re-
fuse the bearer from gaining entrance
TO the theatre in question. The ques-
ton is to be fought out in the courts.
Mr. Metcalfe will be fighting the bat

should be honored at the door.
The broader question relates to the
right of criticism in general. II the

shall criticise the plays presented by
them We will have reverted to Rus.
sian methods and Russian backward
ness. The real question seems to be-
is this Russia or America?
Mr.. Metcalfe will not abate or com,
promise his claim to admission when,
ever or wherever he buys a ticket,
and when hts case is decided we will
all Anow how much power the trust
has over theatrical criticism in this
alleged land of the free.
The case is one in which the whole
country viii take a good deal of in.

ever the result, the theatrical syndi
cate-or Syndicate, as It might more
properly be ealled-will wish it had
let Mr.. Metcalfe alone. Previous to
his exclusion, it had only the one man
to deal with. Now it has opposed to
it the vast preponderance of public

Death has entered its eaectual nolle

charging G.. T. Beckwith, president OF
the defunct Citizens National Bank

banking laws. At -, same time,
with grim irony. it has made doub--

whose borrowings ruined the bank
and its president. 1t is a tragic end

Moral weakness in man is p2etty

It is a story pitiful in its tragedy.
An old man dies broken-hearted,
