Mr. Kerr's Attitude on Special
Charters

Special charters mad been granted
railroad companies in the early days Of
the state giving the companies special
privileges in regard to taxation aud TO
the rates they might charge for freight
and passenger business. No thorough
taxation reform could be had until
these charters were repealed
The matter came up at the special
sessions Of the Legislature called in 1899
and 1900. On March 80, 1899 Mr..
Kerr voted TO indefinitely postpone a
resolution looking to repeal OF the
Michigan Central charter on Jan 4.
1900 he voted against repeating the
Michigan Central charter. ON the
same day he voted against repeating
the d. a. NJ. charter and again on the
same day be voted against repeating
the charter OF the Michigan Southern.

THE DAILY THEN. THE WEEKLY
NOW

NOW.
Back In the early days when Horace
Greeley published the New York Tri-
bune, the American daily had far
greater influence In moulding public
sentiment than ID has today. This Is
partially due to the fact that fifty
years ago the editorials contained In a
paper were the personal opinions Of its
owner. and the proprietor of news
paper.was looked upon s-one Of the
big men Of the community. Thus
every paper came 10 have personality
OF its own 30 to speak and men regard
cd It's editorials in much the same
way as they now regard special articles
written by prominent men.
Today all is changed. People sub
scribe to the dailies MS much to get the
news as anything else. Very little at
tention Is paid TO editorials of SER
ious nature. No one can tell by whom
they are written. for each paper has
it's staff Of poorly paid editorial writ
ers who are under instructions to take
this or that side Of particular ques.
tion and patch some sort OF an article
MP that will be sure 10 offend no adver'
tiser. The editorials seem TO be writ
ten for ''policy sake" alone. and In.
stead Of moulding public thought, the
newspaper Us inclined Ito follow senti
ments already held by the people.
Even.as a news agency the big daily is
losing ground The people do not be-
lieve what they read In the newspaper
until il has been verified several times
OF until the arrival of their favorite
weekly with comments thereon. In
fact Is II not true that the weekly pub.
Iications today both great and small.
are filling that position which the
dailies of fifty years ago used to oc-
cupYf All over the country there Is a
growing demand for the weekly per.
iodical. The people believe what they
say The special articles are signed by
those who write them, while the edi.
torials are the voice of we'll known
owner The local weekly too. is
gaining In strength. II is welding au
influence commensurate with the char
acter and power Of it's owner. Its edi 4
toriaIs are the result OF fair-minded
investigation, and the paper assumes
the character OF Us owner.
AT present there seems 10 be move
ment on foot among the larger news
paper men TO check this tendency.
They do not watch their influence
wane without some feeling or regret
and they begin 10 fear the power Of an
increasing number Of weeglies. I"
Whether they will succeed in stemming
the tide by breaking away from their
commercial habits cannot now be de.
termined, yet just at present the per-
son who is serious minded is subscrib-
ing for some periodical and his opin-

OF that particular publication -Grand
