PRINTING the News Not the NeWspa.
per's Sole Duty.
Charity and Children.

Printing the news is one of the
things a paper must do, to be sure,
but not the main thing. No matter
whether the paper be city daily or
a country weekly, in essence, though
not in degree, their mission is the
same-and that is to help the right
and crush the wrong. Not to follow
public sentiment but to lead and
make it. Not ofawn and futter be-
fore corporate power but to carry a
big stick and use it when corporate
power becomes insolent and over
bearing. Not to truckle to a base
and unworthy sentiment, no matter
whether that sentiment is dominant
among "the people, or 1.-The pluto
Gratis" but to stand up for truth
anywhere and everywhere. 1t is no
little thing to occupy a worthy place
in journalism, but it is a very little
thing to run a sheet with no more
color than a gate-post, and no more
conviction than caterpillar. AS we
have said before, there are newspa
pers published in North Carolina in
small towns and with a limited cir
culation that are terrors to evil-dOers
and towers of strength to the cause
of Righteousness and truth. There Ii
no telling what the influence of these
papers is worth to the world. Thei
editors are men and not sticks, ant
that tells the whole story. Let th'
papers be diligent in printing tn
news at home and abroad; that j
their province and source of thei
| strength and usefulness, but let non
, of us get it into our heads that ou
mission ends there or that it is we
( begun. Any tattler in the neighbol
hood can run around and tell tn
, news, but the man who can guide hi
, fellows into right living and righ
= thinking, and be soldier with hi
: armor on battling for the truth,
