The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1908-11-11

Already the beneficial results Of the
election are being felt throughout
the country and the republican party
Is being able to make good some Of It's
promises even before its new officers
take the oath Of Office. The party had
promised that property should In.
crease, so far as in its power lay, and
even now come reports Of awakening
business activities from the manufac-
turing centers Of the cast. BY the LIST
of December mills and factories will
all be running full time and there Will
be work for all. The mere fact that
Taft is elected is enough to make

While waiting for his successor to take
the helm Roosevelt is getting ready
his last message to congress and II
rumors are to be believed 1t will be as
racteristic as any that have pre-
ceeded 1t. He will leave all tariff reg.

the HONEST COUNTRY NEWSPAPER

One of last months magazines has
an article which all should read who
edit or read newspapers. 1t Is enti'
ed us an honest newspaper posi-
ble?" 1t Is written by a New YORK
editor who knows what he Is talking
about and handles his subject with
out gloves. He starts with the TACT
that the paper alone Of the penny
newspaper costs six mills and conse.
quently the average newspaper has to
depend on its advertising to make II
pay. In order to get the advertising
it must be popular and II II wants TO
be popular, may it tell the truth!
Such Is the problem, even more diff
cult for the country newspaper to SET
tie than for the city sheet. City pa.
pers address a large indefinite public,
the individuals Of which are only In a
small degree acquainted with each
other On the other hand the coun-
try paper is read by the inhabitants
OF one valley, OF several villages located
near each other, or OF one over.grown
country town. They all know each
other so we'll that they form practi.
cally one large family. Each member
of this family takes keen interest In
local affairs, thinks the paper cannot
run without his subscription, and de-
mands that his own personal opinion
be catered TO. 1t Is much easier TO
cater to the public opinion OF the
mass In a city than to the varied per.
sonalitics OF country district 1t is
also much easier to tell the truth TO
a city audience than 10 country one.
The former has received many hard
knocks in life, realizes that there may
be another point OF view than his own
and usually is sublimely Indifferent to
what the newspaper thinks Of IL. The
country reader, however, Is quick to
imagine that he, himself, has received
q personal insult, or else one OF his
family, and he Is eager for vengeance.
When country readers are told that
the melodrama Is not the highest form
OF dramatic literature, that gum
chewing Is found usually only among
the vulgar and that Ella Wheeler vii.
cox has no literary value, they resent
it bitterly while city readers, unless
unusually thoughtful, pay no atten.
tion to such statments. We have re.
Gently had an instance 10 Logan where
an editors frank honest criticism OF
a mans singing aroused the wrath OF
a large class of people. In the city II
would have passed unnoticed. Thus
the indifference and size OF the public
make it possible for the city editor to
speak more freely and truly than his
country colleague. AS regards poll.
tics the same holds good. The best city
papers are now independent but the
country paper must remain strongly
partisan as the country subscriber is
still in the majority OF cases a greater
lover Of party than principle. The
day is far distant when the country
newspaper may tell the whole truth
as its editor sees II, but with the city
newspaper there Is already a begin.

two of the best road commissioners
that the county has ever had and II

and none OF its future benefits. What
the future Of the schools will be under

the state that pretends to see any con.
nection between national politics and
local school boards. Provo has always
held mass primaries for each ward and
even Salt Lake with all her political
heresies runs a citizens ticket in school
board affairs.
Another change In onr school board
that is imperative Is the making Of
some provision whereby the terms Of
all the members shall not end at the
same time. This year there are no
holdovers and the city has chance,
n 1t Is unwise, to elect a totally new
BOARD. This would work much harm
to the schools. A new board, having
no connection with the policy Of the
old, is very likely to branch out In q
manner so radical that the schools
will suffer from the sudden change.
The only way to avoid this is to elect
members for terms Of varying length,
or else to be sure to re.elect some Of
the old members. or the outgoing

THE SCHOOL BOARD.

An encouraging sign with regard to
fair-mindedness and good sense In the
conducting Of local public affairs Is
the desire that has been recently so
widely expressed OF electing non
partisan school board. The election
OF the new board will take place on
December 2, and already leading dem
ocrats and republicans have declared
themselves In favor of calling general
mass-meeting of Logan voters TO dis
cuss the wisdom OF adopting non.
partisan policy In this election. 1t is

Il was only thirty years ago, that
there were but twenty.nine mission

eighty-two. There are fifteeu times as
many pupils in the missionary schools
as there were thirty years ago. There
are vastly more medical stations and
hospitals and 1t is through the work OF
