discovers that the chief executive of
the town wants the streets cleaned. he
prints something like this.
Mayor So-and So calls our atter-

clearing mp and the weeds need cut

selves, and right in this direction we
desire to say that if some of our lazy,
good for nothing citizens don get out
and hustle a little bit this spring, the
city will send around somebody to do
the work for them. and a big, husky
sense in letting this town go to seed. -
There you have as honest an express
ion of purpose and opinion rs could
drip from the pen. The editor means
it, and ne doesn't care whether the
mayor belongs to his party or not.
When the mayor of a larger city
makes request for a general cleaning
up of the city, one paper comedies
with him regardless of everything in
the nature of politics, another comes
out and says there is graft in the
street cleaning department. another
thinks 1t is an opening wedge to
smuggle a new alderman into the
council and another is wary of the
proclamation on general principles.
All of this grows out of the new poll
cy of indirectness and misIepresenta
ton.
For concentration of honest effort
and the maintenance of true civic
pride, the weekly papers still hold
the lead over most dailies. Denver

THE SPIRIT OF WEEKLY PAPERS

There is something refreshing about
turning away from pile of daily
newspapers and taking up weekly and
semi weekly issues from smaller places.
The dailies from larger centres of
population have all become more or
less inoculated with the virus of
yellow journalism, with few notable
exceptions.
The pile of weekly exchanges, how
ever, indicates that the country editors
have grasped readily that part of the
new phase of yellow journalism, which
might be termed enterprise, but have
refused to follow the sensational and
unreliable methods of the larger sheets.
The type is cleaner and brighter than
before; pictures are frequently used to
make the pages attractive; more atten-
tion is paid to a proper display of ad-
vertisements, and the press work is
much better as a rule.
But through it all, the weekly
paper has remained true to its princi-
pies and its editor has his fore6nger
upon the public taste pulse. When
the editor confers with the mayor and

PRACTICE MORE POTENT THAN
PREACHING

Within the past few years many
men, many women and many organi-
cations that have made the moral
welfare of the people their chief con
cern have spent much time and money
besides racking their brains to over
come the liquor traffic and its attend
ant evils, their almost exclusive
method of attack being an appeal to
the sentimental side of mems natures
Men, who on account of strong drink
have sacri feed their business desert
ed wives and children or committed
murder or some o.her terrible crime,
have been held up in all the strength
of their iniquity and used as terrible
examples just as some revival preach
ers persist in shaking their hearers
over hell apparently for the purpose
of soaring them into the straight lane
of peace and righteousness.
But while this appeal to mans s
sentiment had some good effect the
results We're far from satisfactory for
the reason that men whom the lectur-
ers tried to reach through the emo
tions could never realize that they
could ever become the poor, besotted
unfortunate so graphically pictured
in the lecture. And so the appeals
made to man $ sentiment and to his
moral obligation have not been suffi-
cient 10 insure temperance to any
great degree.
But recently a new and more prac-
tical factor in temperance work has
been brought to the front. This is
the promulgation by the railroads of
rules prohibiting employees from in
dulging in liquor or frequenting sa-
looms while on duty. This rule is
now generally enforced by the rail
roads throughout the country and
within the past few weeks the Chica.
go and Alton company has passed
rules which will prevent the officials
of the road from carrying liquor on
their private cars while on tours OF
inspection or transacting any other
official business.
Thus, instead of appealing to senti-
ment the railroads are holding up the
example of men discharged from ser
vice because they have not sense
enough to keep sober, or, worse than
this, because they frequent saloons
contrary to the rules. In other words
the practical lesson-the lesson of dol
lars and cents-the sight of men dis,
charged from service because of nc
other fault but drink, and the desire
that the wits of the paymaster may
continue is having greater effect in
accomplishing results than all the
fearful appeals of all the temperance
lecturers in the world
