Controlled NEWSPAPERS.

The Atchison Globe says that no ad-
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being coca
stoned by the charge often made nova
days, that the Zig advertisers direct
the editorial policy OF newspapers.
The experience Of the Globe is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does great deal OF adj
vertising is more interested in the cir
culation department of a newspaper
than in the editorial department. If a
daily paper goes to the homes of the
people, and is read by them, he is salts
fed, and ii may chase after any theory
or fad, for all he cares. He has troubles
of his own, and he isn't trying to Shout
der those of the editorial brethren
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside of the editorial rooms,
and good many of them, more's the
pity; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space.
The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often con-
trolled by chronic officeseekers. whose
first concern is their own interests.
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations, and the voice of
such newspapers is always raised in
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by its owner, and he
is supposed to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts of
times; there are people who consider
it his duty to insult his advertisers,
just to show that he is free and indie
pendent. If he shows a decent respect
for his patrons, who pay him their
money, and make 1t possible for him to
carry on the business, he is "subsi-
died" or controlled" The newspaper
owner is business man, like the dry
goods man or the grocer. The mer-
chants are expected TO have considera-
ton for their customers, and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who spends five dollars with
them, but the publisher is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron
age of his friends. 1t is funny COM
bination when you think 1t over

Hamlet seemed to speak with au-

Barnes, although he was rather quiet
and patient. But in his other scenes
he was as nervous and irascible as a
regular stage manager"

UnfIatterlna Truth.

A Chicago physician geefully tells
a child story at his own expense. The
five children of some faithful patients
had measles, and during their rather
long stay in the improvised home hos
pital they never failed to greet his
daily visit with pleased acclamation.
The good doctor felt duly battered,
but rashly pressed the children, in the
days of convalescense, for the reason
of this sudden affection. AT last the
youngest and most indiscreet let slip
the better truth.
I'VE felt so sick that we wanted
awfully to do something naughty, but
we were afraid to be bad for fear you
and the nurse would give us more hor-
rid medicine. SO we were awfully
glad to see you, always, cause YOU
made us stick out our tongues. We
stuck EN- out awful far"

LAWS NEED CHANGING

OLYMPIA. - Governor Hay has
made pubic the report OF legislative
investigating committee, appointed by
the legislature of 1909.
The committee charges state land
cruisers with incompetency or dis
honesty resulting in a loss to the
state of millions of dollars; it de-
clares that the land department has
shown poor judgment in the selec-
ton Of state lands; it finds no evi.
dence that The law commissioner has
collected interest on state deposits.
The state oil inspector is exon
Grated of charges and declares that
the present oil inspection law is USE
less; it accuses the ex-state fair
commissions of extravaganza in horse
race expenditures and the secretaries
of incompetehcy; holds the state
dental board guilty of arbitrary and
unwarran%ed action, but not of fraud
or collision; it deprecates the jeal-
ousy existing between the state col
lege and state university.
The committee also suggests many
recommendations among which are
the revision of state land laws. the
creation of two appointive members
OF land board, and provision for
cruise OF all state timber lands; the
continuation of investigation of the
land department.; the passage of law
providing for payment to state of in
terest on land commissioners bank
deposits; elimination of one or more
normal schools; numerous improve
ments at state training school; repeal
or amendment of oil inspection law.

day banquet.
Every Republican might choose, the
Acknowledgement declared, whether
or not he was with the Republican
party and the President.
Time for Treason Past.
Gle that hath no stomach for the
fight, let him depart" quoted Mr..
Wickersham in a shout which en-
phasized the sentiment "The time
of running with the hares and the
hounds is over Treason has ever
consisted in giving aid and comfort
to the enemy. If anyone wishes to
join the Democratic party, let him do
so; but let him not claim to be Re-
publican and work in and out of sea-
son to defeat Republican measures
and to subvert the influence of the
Republican President"
president Taft is doing exactly
what the Republican party and plat
form promised before his election,
and the new tariff laws fulfill the
pledges made in that particular" he
said.

URGES CONGRESS TO ACT

WASHINGTON, D. C.-President
Taft was the first speaker on long
list that addressed the dinner OF the
League of Republican Clubs of the
District of Columbia Saturday night.
Instead of delivering the keynote
speech, he pleaded in the national
legislature to rally behind Taft poll
cies and redeem the platform
pledges of the party.
Tonight" he said, eve are read
ing nobody out of the party. We
want all of them in the ranks and
they have the opportunity to establish
their claim to Republicanism by that
which they shall do in both houses
OF congress by helping to enact the
legislation which is now before
them"
"The time has come" said Presi-
dent Taft, "for doing and voting and
passing the measures which have
been placed before this congress-
1t is time for doing things, and after
congress has adjourned the Repub-
lican party will have formed it's lines
of attack. Then will it be furnished
with the weapons with which we are
going into the next contest
Those he continued, Gin the
Senate and the House who stand for
the legislation we seek in order to
redeem the pledges of the party have
the right to stand with the party as
Republicans.
IF they don't, we won't quarrel
with them. They have a right to
their opinions. But, we desire their
aid as Republicans, and I don't wish
to assume that they are not as sim
cere as I hope I am myself in Re-
publicanism.
"The Republican party is not rigid
in its demands. It is so broad and
liberal that it permits differences OF
opinion

ROME, April 12.-Apparently the
only serious result of the unfortunate
failure of Pope Plus and Mr.. Roose-
welt to have the interview both would
have enjoyed is the weapon thus
placed in the hands of the opponents
of Cardinal Merry del Val, chief ad-
wiser of the Pontiff in secular con-
Germs. 1t is predicted that Cardinal
del Vals tenure of office will not be
prolonged indefinitely.
