Afternoon Newspapers in
the Morning Field.

The Journal always had high opin-
ion OF the good sense Of the Tampa
Times. But some time ago when that
excellent afternoon paper announced
that it was going to publish a Sunday
morning edition, we began to doubt
our contemporaries sober judgment.
After publishing the Sunday morning
edition for several weeks, the Times
now annotrnces that it will discontinue
the Sunday paper and con1ne itself
strictly to the afternoon field. This
last decision indicates a return to
sanity.
There never was any excuse or rea-
son for an afternoon paper anywhere
publishing u Sunday morning edition
certainly not III any city under 100000
population. The Sunday morning field
is covered by the regular morning pa
per 1ust as the Tuesday morning field
is covered by it, There is no more
sense in an afternoon paper getting
out a Sunday morning edition than
there would be in i morning paper
getting out a Wednesday afternoon
edition.
One Sunday morning paper is
enough in any city up to 100000 peo-
pie. Newspaper readers do not want
more than one. Advertisers do not
want more than one, Nobody wants
moro than one. In fact, there is no
more excuse for two Sunday morning
papers in Tampa or Jacksonville or
Pensacola than for two telephone sys-
TENS or two street car lines.
Moreover, two Sunday morning pa
pers in the same town seldom pay.
The afternoon paper that publishes
sunday morning edition simply skins
every other of it's editions during the
week in order to make Il showing on
Sunday morning. It's gross business,
divided among seven editions, is sell
dom larger than it's business divided
among six editions. The very publi-
cation of a Sunday morning edition
by an afternoon paper also constl-
tutes an admission on its part that
morning paper is more desirable to the
reader and the advertiser tLdh GA
afternoon paper is.
There are numerous examples OF |
the failure of afternoon papers in the !
morning field. The Memphis Scimitar !
tried it for years and was in the hands |
of a receiver much of the time. Now |
it has quit its Sunday paper and is |
making money. The st. Louis Star
tried It and had to quit. The Pensacola |
flews tried it and the Sunday edition /
put tie paper into bankruptcy. The
Tampa Times showed~its good sense |
by quitting the Sunday field before it
was too late.
The greatest afternoon paper in this
country is the Chicago Daily News,
and It has never ventured into the
sunday field. 1t issues an edition six
afternoons in every week and stops |
right there. The example OF the Chi
cago News is worth studying by all |
afternoon papers who are not satisfied
with the field to which, six days in
the week, their work is dedicated.

BLAIR IS HOSTILE
TO SENATOR CUMMINS
Steamboat Owner Thinks He Was
Mistreated Over keokuk Dam
Bridge Matter.

Davenport Democrat: The man
who asked Captain Walter A. Blair If
he was for Cummins. had no trouble
understanding where the captain
stands this fall.
We'll, should say not" answered
the well-known riverman. 81 like a
man that you can know where he
stands. The experience Of US river
men with Senator Cummins was
enough for me.
Perhaps you remember that the
Keokuk dam interests tried TO slip
one over on the rivermen and the
government by making a railroad
bridge out of the dam. All they had
had to do was to construct 1000 feet
Of bridge across the forebay and con-
meet the dam on the Iowa shore.
They already had railroad tracks on
the dam that they had used in the
construction work.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
law specifically states no bridge may
be constructed across any part of a
navigable stream without an act of
congress, the location OF the bridge
by the United States engineers, and
lot OF other red tape, the dam people
were going right along with their
bridge, and had the concrete piers
built, almost up to the water level, in

fact, right up to where the steel was
to go on them, before we found out
what they were doing.
"The river interests promptly
called upon their congressman to
stop the work. Most OF them said It
couldn't be going on-but 1t was.
Senator Cummins showed moro than
usual interest-wanted to know all
about it. l sent him word that I
would come to Des Moines at my own
expense to explain the situation to
him; asked him to let me know when
I could see him; told him was wait
ing for word from him. Well, never
heard again, but / noticed he was
spending his vacation in Des Moines,
and noticed that Hugh Cooper went
from Keokuk to Des Moines about
that time Then the next thing I no.
ticed Senator Cummins was intro

Ran without LIohts.

We laid in Rio for three days, and
the third night we put out for Monte
veido without even the navigation
lights on, which put US in big danger
of another boat running into US. We
ran close in to land all the time ana
nothing happened until the morning OF
the third day out OF Rio when all AT
once heard the engines speed up and
the sailors running on deck and every
thing seemed to be alive. | thought
If there was anything doing | wanted
to see it and rolled out Of my bunk,
pulled on rain coat over my pa
iamas, and made run for the deck.
When got up there found that we
were being chased by some kind of
boat. We could see her at our star
board, side making right for US, so we
changed our course and she followed.
Then the captain put our boat right
for shore and she did likewise, and
the chase kept up for about an houf
and half when we got so close TO
neutral water that she saw she could
MT take us SO she turned and put OUT
to sea again, and we Strengthened up
and kept close in to neutral water all
the way to Monteveido.
When we landed in Monteveido we
found out that the boat that chased
us was little merchant boat mounted
with a few guns and wireless, and
that her object was to capture our
boat and then call for the big German
boat to come and help herself to our
coal and provisions.
