HANDS OFF, PLEASE

The idea that country news
paper men can assemble in con-
vention and think or talk any
thing but politics does not seem
to have permeated the systems
of the party bosses. Doctors
can gather and discuss materia
medica and surgery; lawyers can
meet and talk about torts and
evidence; preachers can hold
presbyterys, conferences a d
synods and argue on evangelism,
the divinity of Christ and the in
spiration of the bible; and the
politician pays absolutely nc at
tention. Bnt let it be even
whispered that a body of news
paper men is to hold meeting,
and the party bosses, ward heel
sers professional manipulators,
Office holders and near governors
prick up their ears and get busy
instanter to try to manipulate the
ScribeS to suit their ends.
The Northern Minnesota Edi-
torial Association has signally
suffered in this respect. For two
years it was small and attracted
little attention. Then it began
to grow, and at the business
meeting held in Sank Centre two
years ago an attempt was made
by politicians to dictate the pro-
gram. At the summer outing at
Walker horde of Office seekers
swooped down from Crookston
after the Northern Minnesota
Development Association meet,
secured the best rooms at Glen
garry club house ID made
themselves generally obnoxious.
At Park Rapids last summer the
act was repeated on a larger
scale.
The fact that Sam Gordon and
Alvah Eastman, regular mem
bers in good standing, the one a
candidate for governor and the
other for congressman at-large,
were to attend the recent meet
ing at Long Prairie, where w.
E. Lee, another candidate for
governor, and his son bona
fide publisher, live, caused the
state administration to rise up on
it's hind legs and howl because
the governor was not invited; in
fact either the governor Or some
of his machinists had the monu-
mental nerve to insist that he
be included among the guests.
When they found this would not
work, they dispatched Asa M.
Wallace, deputy fire marshal, to
Long Prairie to watch things.
At least that's what the COVER
nor's st. Paul newspaper mouth
piece said. Asa is publisher OF
the Fairfax Standard and as
such was heartily welcome.
But he found nothing doing in a
political way in spite of the fact
that the aforesaid newspaper
mouthpiece stated t h at he
watched the committee on res.
elutions." I was chairman OF

In most pregnant moment OF
history testing Plate asked,
"What is TRUTH" But did he Jest
Millions have put the question in
earnest. The same man who
fastened the word jesting on to
Pilates name was fond of quoting
what Herodotus said about the
light of reason, DRY light is ever
the BEST" meaning light unrefract-
ed by prejudice and passion an
impossibility, no doubt, but never
theless an ideal. Where many in
terests are concerned it will not be
possible to tell the truth without a
fight. Light is antiseptic, but it
is often unwelcome; it is not al
ways becoming. This same
TRUTH" as Bacon says, us naked
and open daylight, that does not
shew the masks and mummeries
and tiumphs of the world half so
stately and daintily as candle
lights" Thorough in lnvestiga-
ton and determined in exposition
is what every journalist ought to
be. His power in the community
is great, and his devotion should
not be less. Democratic govern
ment would be- an impossibility
without newspapers, and its sue
cess must depend largely on the
ability, freedom, and courage of
the press. Of course, there is an
agitation for the sake of agitation
which is inexcusable, but it is
much less likely to continue and do
harm than are the opposite faults
of timidity and smugness. Muck
raking on the whole should be a
term of praise. 1t helps the pub
lie and it certainly does no moral
harm to the newspaper indulging
in it. AS old Lyly said: The
sun shineth upon the dunghill and
is not polluted" If our Govern
ment and our civilization are to be-
come more democratic, more and
more equal, more and more just,
it must be because, step by step,
the organs of public opinion also
become more democratic, uncom-
promising, and just. An ideal
press is a necessity of an ideal
democracy.
