PRINT THE NEWS
This is the Business and Duty of a
keWspaper

newspaper
Recently a business man of this city
called upon the editor of the Chief
tain to suppress a news item. The
matter was not of great public impor-
lance nor Of very general interest,
but the business man did not want it
in the paper. He said he would prom
Use that it should not appear in any
other paper if the Chieftain would not
print il, and he then went on to say
that if this item did appear in the
Chieftain he would withdraw his ad-
vertising patronage from the paper.
OF course in the face of such a
threat there was nothing TO do but to
print the item, since il was a matter
of legitimate news interest. and the
management of the Chieftain Will not
permit anyone outside of this Office
to dictate under threats of withdraw
al OF subscription or loss Of adverJis-
ing patronage the manner in which
We shall carry out our contract with
our subscribers 10 furnish them the
news of the day.
II is queer idea that some people
have Of the business relations OF a
newspaper. The Chieftain has many
thousand readers in Pueblo and else
where with whom it has entered into
a contract to furnish the news Of the
day. 1t has a modern building and
expensive machinery constructed for
the purpose of publishing the news.
II employs more than a hundred men
and boys for the purpose of publish
ing the news. 1t hires reporters to
get the news. Il pays experienced
newspaper men to prepare and TO edit
the news, giving it prominence and
space according to its relative i'm
pOrtance. 1t makes contracts with adj
veruseTs 10 give publicity 10 their bus
mess announcements, and the value
of that advertising depends directly
upon the news value of the paper and
the manner in which the paper dis
charges its obligation to its subscrib-
ers.
And Yet when some person for some
trivial reason or for a mere notion
wants a news item suppressed it
seems to be the easy thing to ring up
the ChiefJain Office on the telephone
and ask that the newspaper shall viO-
late its contract with all its subscrib-
ers, nUllify the value of its plant and
organization and impair its value to
all its advertisers by failing to do the
particular thing that newspapers are
established 10 perform.-Pueblo (COO

THE BUILDING OF THE WORLD

Lean the hill upon the mountain and
the vale upon the hill,
Cleave the vale and dig the channel
for the waters of the rill;
Plant the tree and SOW the meadow
with the blooms Of eyes delight,
Hang the sun upon the morning and
the stars upon the night;
Pour the waters of the ocean round
the verges OF the spheres.
Loose the thunder and the lightning,
set the clouds and rain the tears!
Cool the far internal furnace of the
molten globe with dew.
Fix the heavens with their arches
deep and beautiful and blue;
Loose the moon and neither planets in
the orbits of the dark,
And the poles upon the center of the
zOdiacal arc;
Bring the mollusk from the atoms, till
the ages rung by rUng,
Climb the valleys OF creation till the
perfect world be swung,
Then bring summer on thu south wind
and the spring upon the breeze.
With a rose of April weather pouring
down the rolling seas;
Herd the lion with the leopard and
the eagle with the lamb.
ClOthe the rock with bloomy verdure.
and the morning tides with calm;
Charge with crystal all the fountains
till the land, the sky, the streams
Roll in grooves Of settled odor in ere
alton dream of dreams,
Sui imperfect? Still unfinished? Yea.
the builder saw the flaw.
Then the gardens of wide wonder and
the deserts of wide awe
Shook with sudden, strange puIsation
as a wOndrOus music woke.
And the air upon the pillows in a
thousand balSamS broke:
And the day and night divided as de
scended from above,
Winged with white. the slender-foot-
ed. rose encircled spirit-Love.
Roads from roads in lanes divided.
cities clustered street by street.
Hammers swung and anviIs sounded
FORCES famed and sledges beat:
Hearts responded, husbands labored
whistles sounded, day was done:
Down the pathway thousands hasten

Crowned and chapleted with beauty

written for the Ocala Banner.)
While recognizing the necessary re-
mOval of the ancient live oak from the
street near the court house square,
am forced to deplore it, and will say
in the words of Bobbie Burns, %. the
pity o. it,"
In little town on the coast of
South Carolina grew a wide-spreading
live oak, where the children were
wont to play and the older people met
to discuss affairs of home. church and
state. During the visitation of one of
the severe storms that prevail on the
coast, this beautiful tree was uproot-
ed and destroyed.
Revisiting the scenes OF my boyhood
days, [ saw all that remained of my
ancient friend-a rotting log-and
while gazing upon it with a heart fill
ed with sorrow feelings that were re-
newed on Saturday, the appended
lines came to my mind:
Grim evidences Of times destroying
power,
Thou art living here, fast going to
decay.
Symbolic Of the truth: Eartb's fairest
flower
Blooms but to fade and pass away.
An hundred gales thy branches have
withstood,
When reared toward the azure dome
of heaven,
Oh, fallen monarch Of primevaI woods.
What eloquent tho silent lesson
thou hast given.
Could thou but speak. what stories
thou cOuldst tell
OF grief, of JOY, OF hope. Of fear,
OF beauty's tryst beneath thy pleas
ant shade,
OF noble youths who met them there
And vows of love or friendship
made.
OF birds who sought thy spreadingI
branches wide
To rear their young beneath thy
living green;
The stately hart, who led his timid
bride,
Meath thy cool shade, by prying
eyes unseen.
Whate'er thou saw, thou keep'st the
secret we'll
And now the all destroying hand OF
time
Has laid its whitening grasp upon
thy form.
Decaying bole, in noisome bed of
slime,
Fitting abode of gruesome. crawling
worm.
leave and thy stories all unread.
To pass again into thy parent
mould,
YET this sad truth thy silent form hath
shed,
All things must die, the end of all is
told. c. ON. F.
