What Journalist Should Be,

From Lesles Weekly.
Newspaper men in general. and the
younger men in the profession In partic-
ular. Will be interested and profited by
reading an article on The Independent
Press: Its Opportunities and Duties"
which appears in the North American
Review for July. the writer being Mr.
Samuel Bowles. editor OF the Springfield
Republican. His conception of what
true journalist should be and what gen.
une and self-respecting journalist should
stand for In every community are adj
mlrably expressed in these words: The
journalist has one client. one patient,
one flock-that Is to say, the whole COM
munity; and nothing should stand In ths
way of his single handed and devoted SER
vice of that one interest. He should be-
ware all entangling allances-political. So
cial commercial-which may limit or en-
barrass such service. He should let ths
honors and emoluments of public office
go to other people. His own office. IL
properly administered. is more important
and more powerful than any his fellow
citizens are likely TO confer upon him."
