1t, yet in the end, Truth prevailed;
and every Dark Age will be follow

within the realms Of dogma, ortho-

moment it is made to conform to
set rules, it ceases to be Truth, and
wings its flight away to a purer,

or backward, for he cannot remain
still. There is no middle course.
Following these natural divisions,
we thus find there are two courses
which the editor may pursue in his
search for Truth.
First, he may devote his space en-
tirely to the cataloguing of blood,
murder and sudden death, usually
yclept news, and to the recording
of ancient history; to a recital Of
that which has been actually
been brought to pass; who will rig
idly censor the contributions of
his readers, lest by some mischance
there might permeate ray Of the
bright sunlight of human life and
human progress.
Needless to say, however, the edi-
tor of such a paper will publish
nothing but the Truth, in so far as
the news items are concerned. Be-
sides the grewsome details Of the
Los Angeles explosion, he will,
without doubt, place the story of
the planting Of dynamite by the
millionaire employers Of Lawrence;
will tell of the Trinagle horror in
New York City, and will infaliibly
tell the tale Of the daily death toll
Of workers from defective machin-
cry, and from absence Of safety de-
vices, in order that larger dividends
may be paid.
In telling Of the violent proceed
ures of the English militant sui
fragettes ESTIMATED at about 2O0)
he will be sure to point out the
peaceful progress Of the movement
in this country, and the success of
equal suffrage in those States in
which it has been granted.
In his strict advocacy OF Truth,
he will certainly exclude statements
that Socialists want anarchy and
atheism, when all they desire is
government ownership and the re-
turn to the worker Of the wealth he
has produced.
But it may be that the editor has
a higher conception Of Truth as his
policy, than mere recording OF news
items. He may even believe that
his paper should be the leader rath-
er than the follower Of public opln-
ion. He will open his columns to
all his readers, thereby gaming a
general idea Of what that pubic
opinion really is. He will hear the
humblest cry, realizing that ne
must speak by proxy for the mar,
ticulate murmurs of the poor and
the oppressed. He will never cover
up the cancers on the body polltl,c,
with fulsome platitudes. He Will
invite full and free discussion OF
the great human questions which
| lie at our thresholds awaiting ac-
tion. which must be met sooner or
later with logic, and not with pre-
udice.

have transient possession, but

II will, of course, be conceded
that Truth is an essential lngred-

question arising as to what amount

other of the two great natural dl-

there will be included in this class,

1t is expected that next week there
will be several formal announcements
of candidates. for the Progressive
nominations for mayor, city clerk and
councilmen. So far, E. G. McMahan,
candidate for mayor, and Baltz Besch-
er, for clerk, are the only entries in
the Progressive race.
Next Thursday evening the full city
committee of the Progressive organi-
zation will hold a meeting for the pur-
pose of deciding whether the party's
municipal ticket shall be chosen at a
primary election or at convention,
and it appears to be q foregone con-
clusion that the committee will vote
for the primary plan, judging from
sentiments expressed by various
members Of the committee who have
been busy several days sounding pub

LONDON, April 5.-Extending the

movement the militant suffragettes to-
day carried widespread terror into all
quarters of England by their lawless
depredations. They carried the torch
into Scotland, burning down the grand
stand at the Ayr race course with a
loss of $4,000. At Kelso two women
were detected trying to set fire to the
grandstand of the Kelso race course
and were arrested.
All the great manor houses are be-

royal lodges are closed and guarded
by patrolmen and firemen.

CLERKS CENSORSHIP

Its Purpose.

Efforts were made yesterday by
the county clerk to suppress a mar
riage license, refusing to place the
ganted application upon the proper
fle. The license was placed in a
drawer, which was locked and the key
carried by the clerk. Upon request of
reporters that the license be shown
them. he refused. declaring that he
was at the head of the ONCE. Asked
if he were not a public servant and IL
records in his ONCE were not open to
public inspection. he evaded the ques-
ton, merely declaring that he would
not make the licenses public News
paper men declare that a news censor
ship has been maintained by the
present county clerk for some time
upon legitimate news, and upon which
the court has not prohibited publica-
ton
The matter yesterday was brought
to focus by the Palladium. which de-
manded that the license be placed on
file. After much wrangIing the clerk
produced the key. unlocked the private
drawer and placed the papers where
they could be inspected
