A newspaper is in no sense d
child of charity. 1t earns twice over
every dollar it receives, and is is
second TO no enterprise in cOntri-
buting to the upbuilding Of COM
munity. Its patrons reap far NOR
benefits from its pages than its pub
fishers, and in calling for the sup
port of the community in which it
is published, it ask for no more
than in all fairness belongs to it,
though generally it receives less.
Patronize and help your paper as
you would any other enterprise be-
cause it helps you, and not as an
act of charity.

The recent conviction of the
leader of a lynching party in
North Carolina was a most
wholesome lesson to be admins
tered to those who are so ready
to join mobs. The offense of
that mob was peculiarly vicious,
because there was absolutely no
excuse for mob violence. The
act charged against the negroes
was not that one which of all
others most infames the public
mind, and which, while it does
not justify, to a certain extent
mitigates the offense Of the mob.
The negroes had murdered, or
were charged with having done
SO, man and his wife and child
whether for purposes of robbery
or revenge was not clear. 1t was
a brutal murder, but not more
atrocious than many such that
have been committed in every
state in the United States and in
other countries.-Ex.

heretofore had been only indirectly In
volved in the wage negotiations.
Notice was served on President Leslie
Carter that the union within a few days
will demand q written contract with the
company, providing for q fved standard
of wages for all classes Of employees. The
attitude Of the company, It is expected,
will be hostile 10 the recognition OF tha
union. With only two days remaining
before the agreements under which the
men on the loop and the Metropolitan
lines are working expire, the aggressive
move against the South Side road, IL is
believed, lessons the chances Of a peacsisA
