do SO. In other words, it is up to him.
Every newspaper has its political and
public policies, formulated by the edi-
torial chief of the newspaper, and
these the city editor must weigh in,
the handling of the news events of
each day.
The ideas of the city editor and the
public differ often on the question of
what is news and what is not, and the
city editor who has Deen in the har-
ness for any considerable length of
time has discovered that there are
very few people in the community
VINO do not know how ito get up
things for the paper" as they put it;
In other words, they know exactly
how a newspaper story should be
written, in the majority of instances,
for purely personal reasons. The city
editor has an army of advisers, and
he must listen to all of them, for
among them there are many of his
best friends; the ones who see and
hear things and furnish him tips that
materially aid him in the filling of his
columns.
| The city editor who would best
serve his paper must be discreet,
human and charitable, these virtues
having particular reference to news
matters involving individuals. He
must ever be ready to give the benefit
Of the doubt where the personality
concerned is placed, by his own error
or the error of others, in an unfavora-
Bile light in connection with some pub
| lie occurrence. The city editor who
-
be booster; an optimist, always see,
| ing the brighter, better and more
healthy viewpoint in the preparation
of his daily budget He is human,
and therefore makes mistakes, but in
variably they are mistakes of the head
and not of the heart. He is slow to
incur enmities and ever ready to
make friends. But, If he is true to
his trust, he must not compromise
between right and wrong. There was
a time in newspaper work. and the
idea still prevails, but mostly in the
| larger cities, when the merit of a city
editor was measured by his capacity
for sensationalizing, but, happily that
era is rapidly passing. The city edi-
tor of today is measured chiefly by
his reliability; his intelligence, his
honesty, sfairness and pure-minded-
less, with just enough of courage and
fearlessness not to waver in an emer-
gency.
The city editor is regarded by the
public as a walking encyclopedia,
whether he is or not. During a single
day he may be asked a hundred differ
en-! questions, to be answered without
investigation, which may embrace any
! inquiry from what the stage of the
water was at the Rock Island bridge
July 8, 1852, to who it was who intro
duced in the county board of super
visors the resolution to raise funds
with which to erect the present court
house.
But, through it all, the position of
city editor. demands of the one who
fills it successfully quick action, judg-
ment and cool head. He is one of
the cogs in a live organization that
works closer to time schedules than
does the limited railroad passenger
trains.
