A Summary of Pulitzer's Career
REMARKABLE CAREER OF MAN WHO ROSE FROM THE BOTTOM
OF NEWsPAPERDoM.

(E. w. Lightner in Pittsburg Dispatch)
1t was my first experience at q ma
tional political convention when 1 met
Joseph Pulitzer for the first time and
it was that remarkable assembly OF
1872 at Cincinnati, when. Horace. Gree.
ley. editor and proprietor of the New
York Tribune. was nominated for the
presidency of the United States by the
Liberal Republican convention, com.
posed of a large element which was
|antagonistic to the administration OF
President Grant.
] was then q country boy Of Mer-
Ger county. Pa. whose father had pur-
chased for him the Greenville Ad.
vance. l having had a determined
ambition to be IAN editor" Pulitzer
and 1 were about the same age. he
a reporter of two years experience
Of the Westliche Post of ST. Louis
Of which Carl Schurz was editor.
1t was an editors convention. Schur7
was made the presiding officer and
there were many noted editors of the
country there as delegates. 1t was
probably only the affinity Of similar
age that brought Pulitzer and myself
into fairly intimate contact. for the
editor of a country paper Of two
years. experience could hardly expect
to have a soulful association with the
IcPOTlcE VI eNcu Two years Ol d CITY
paper. The latter must inevitably have
Il larger view of the world, the over
world and underworld. and Pulitzer,
though he had but graduated from the
work of a dock hand, a livery work
man and a waiter in q restaurant,
seemed to be to be a marvel of world
ly wisdom.
The revolt was far more formida-
BILE than that Of the insurgents of, this
day, If revolt it car be called. There
were giants in stature as we'll as in in
~tellect, and in the score of national
conventions which 1 have attended
since that time l have e none which
was SO genuine in enthusiasm, 30 in
spired by hat which the actors were
convinced was a great principle, the
leaders having nothing of the type
of the professional politician and all
recalling the days of Original aboli-
tionists''. in their spirit of devotion to
that principle of pure politics and lof-
administration which. no matter what
the grandeur of Grant seemed to them
to have fallen into the hands of
schemers and grafters.
Young as he was. brief rs was his
experience with public men and af-
fairs, Joe Pulitzer as he was called,
was a figure in that convention as cor
respondent OF h paper on winch he
had already made q name. and which
itself had made n name under the cdi-
torial management of a imam like
Schurz, who was in the revolution
of as" in Germany, had been impris-
oned and had not only escaped, but
had assisted in the escape of other
prisoners in the most thrilling manner.
Pulitzer was more than six feet in
height, though that has little or moth
ing to do with the case. He was spare
to cancellation and suggested that he
might have been a hungarian" in
stead Of a Hungarian and many a time
he had been all that.
There was a fire In his which one
would never have thought could be
dimmed by q total blindness and Il
