can Coal company OF Scranton who at

Why News Is Printed

IL is rather discouraging. or at any
rate it is not encouraging, that though
the reasons for the publication of all
the news by newspapers have been so
often and so carefully given, there
should still persist in small but we'll
intentioned and respectable fraction
OF the newspaper-reading public be-
lief that the papers should print little
II anything except the news noble
deeds and pleasant happenings.
To entertain this belief one has to
ignore so many things. among them
the nature of news, and the interests
OF humanity. The essential character
istic OF news seems TO be unusualness.
At any rate, that alone, in innumer-
able instances, gives to actions and
events what everybody recognizes as
importance-not necessarily intrinsic
Importance, OF course, but an import
ance that demands, receives and, In
one way or another, rewards atten-
ton.
A critical reader whose letter ap-
peared on this page recently had TAX
en- a copy OF the Times and written
out a partial table OF its contents. In
our opinion, his table. though partial.
proved that the Times that day was
an unusually good newspaper. Even
It's critic had commentator for about
half OF what his list contained, be-
cause 1t was exactly what he thinks
newspapers should print, but TO the
other half he objected because, for
sooth. he objects to murders and at
/ tempted murders, to minor crimes. TO
/ suicides, to railway accidents, to d.
! vorces TO wars! Concerning these
matters, apparently he would have
nothing said. Apparently, too, he
thinks that IL nothing were said about
them they would cease to exist.
| Among the few certainties in this
uncertain world Is the certainty that
he is quite wrong. Publicity 10 the
very best remedy-is the only remedy
for these evils. or course, there is
wrong as we'll as a right publicity,
and the effects OF publicity are not all
or always good 1t can but hurt the
! hero or the philanthropist as well as
produce imitators OF the murderer or
the suicide. But manner and motive
can justify as they can condemn the
giving OF publicity To anything. This
/ truth the wise critic Of journalism
I keeps in mind and he judges q news
paper less on what II prints than en-
! how and why the printing Is done.
There is nothing wrong In the fact
that the horse trotting quietly along
the streets attracts few and careless
glances, but draws a crowd II he falls
down and creates intense excitement
/ IL he runs away--and nothing wrong
! In the fact that in one case he makes
no news and In the other two gets
into the paper."-New York Times.

dog wandered about the yard. biting
and tearing at the doormat and every
thing not nailed down. Mrs. Baylis
and her f1ve-year-old daughter were
out at the time. but the imprisoned
editor saw them returning and warned
them away.
He summoned Detective Biggs and
the town dog catcher. George TAYLOR.
by telephone. The dog charged the
officers in the face OF a stream OF fire
from their revolvers. and Taylor es-
capped by getting to the roof OF the
front porch and Biggs squeezed him
self into the chicken house. From
these positions the shooting resumed.
until Biggs by n lucky shot broke one
OF the animals legs. Taylor then slid
down from the roof and finished the
