Controlled Newspapers.

The Atchison Globe says that no ad-
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being occa-
stoned by the charge often made nova
days, that the big advertisers direct
the editorial policy of newspapers.
The experience OF the Globe is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does a great deal of ad-
yertising is more interested in the cir-
culation department of 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 it 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 a 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 it's 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
1t his duty to insult his advertisers
just to show that he is free and indie
pendent. If he shows decent respect
for his patrons, who pay him their
money, and make 1t possible for him tc
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 tC
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron
age of his friends. 1t is funny com
bination when you think it over

Before he was ten he had handed
over his ordinary nursery toys to his
younger brothers and was giving all
the time he could spare from lessons
and exercises to fleet of model bat

his father. II was the time of the
Russian Japanese war, and the young
prince with model guns. forts and

was following each move and fighting
mimic battles with his fleet. Later
King George. anxious to encourage his
sons love Of the sea. gave him

A story is told of his early days at
Osborne which seems to prove that
the prince is not without commercial
Instincts. He had written home to his
mother for extra pocket money. which
she refused to send, and so he wrote
a long letter to his grandmother beg
ging her to help him out. Queen Alex
andra wrote a long letter reproving
him for extravaganza.
To her surprise Prince Edward, who
hates letter writing like a normal
boy, Immediately answered t~r letter
and asked many questions. She an
swered them. only to receive another
letter from her grandson. At last the
truth came out that the prince was
selling the queens autograph letters
to his schoolmates for money to spend
at the tuckshop.

II had a similar experience in the

was a family pet. One day when he
was following me downtown a big
yellow mongrel about the size of a
hayrick, jumped on him in a shameful
manner. The owner of the mongreI
seemed to think it a great joke, and

reared fighting bulldogs, and asked

What's the use of finishing that
story" interrupted the sporty black
smith. You're making up that blam-
ed yarn as you go along. That fight
ing dog came. you were going to say,
and chewed its ears off until the po-
lice interfered Such a yarn as that
gives me convex pain, and does
che story about the game rooster.
If there's one thing sure in this
world it is the fact that blood will tell.
The mongrel dog never lived that

may be that some old scrub Ply

some period of the worlds history, but
you may bet your green umbrella that
the game bird had the infammatory-

disease. A scrub horse hitched to

but, if 80, the latter had left its legs
in cold storage.
Such yarns remind me of the back

the sporty blacksmith with warmth.
Go into any crossroads village at this
season of the year and you will find
a baseball team, and all the village
sports are ready to bet that it can
whip any professional team out of it's
boots. Now and then this bluff is
called. A professional team has a day
off and drops into Punkville and plays
the local orphans and runs up a score
of about $50 to O. And the village
sports can't afford to shave for. the
