FALSE PRAISE HARMFUL.

We sometimes wonder If the local
newspaper in it's fulsome praise OF

do an actual injury to the person com
plimented by encouraging in them
false and exalted idea OF their own
talent and ability. The local reporter,
means well and prefers to speak Wen
rather than ill of everyone But Win
that desire to the fore, do we NOT at
times say more than the circumstan-
ces warrant? We plead guilty, ana we

offense. We have some good amateur

THE PRESS AGENT GRAFT.

A great deal of attention has been
directed toward the so called press
agent graft" during the past week. Tho
morning paper inspired by Virtuous in
dignation has delivered several lectures
directing attention to it's high moral
stand on this important question. For
instance one of it's writer's drew only
ten days pay as a legislative clerk
during the recent session of the legis-
lature. In the session two years ago
its senate reporter held clerkship dur
ing the session but only one reporter
whereas several might have had post
tions. Further than that the deponent
saith not. The records show that DUR
ing the session four years ago both its
legislative reporters were clerks of leg
isiative committees while the State
Journal reporters were not so favored.
Perhaps the press agent graft" which
was a virtue in 1907 has become crime
in 1911.
The holding of public positions by
newspaper men may be open to criti-
cism-espeoially If the person who holds
the position happens to be a reporter.
The reporter as a rule does not control
the policy of newspapers and his SER
vices as press agent may be of lit
tie value when he can not exploit his
angel in the paper which employs the
reporter but nevertheless a multiplicity
of duties even If they are not especially
burdensome is not a good thing.
But If it is a bad thing for a repor-
ter to hold positions at the hands of
public officials it must be infinitely
WORSE for tho adifore o,6
OF newspapers themselves to hold such
positions. For instance. Arthur Cap
per- publisher of the Topeka Daily Cap
itaL who ought to control the policy
Of his newspaper, is a regent of the
State Agricultural college by the grace
of Governor Stubs. Was Mr.. Capper
appointed because OF his intimate
knowledge of agriculture or because he
had taken great interest in the cause
of education? This can hardly be the
reason he was selected because he never
was farmer and he is not even col
| lege graduate. Can it be true that he
was appointed because of his position as
the publisher of a great newspaper?
1t would be unkind to say that he was
named as the press agent" of Cover
nor Stubs even though the paper he
publishes has been exceedingly kind to
the governor.
