The statement follows: "Madriz

Controlled Newspaper.

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

vertising is more interested in the cir
culation department of a newspaper
than in the editorial department II a

people, and Is read by them, he is salts.
fed, and 1t 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 Lot 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
1t 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 it 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 4

them, but the publisher is, expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he is ungrateful for the patron.
