The Newspaper Bill.

Certain newspapers, which have per-
mitted cowardly contributors to slug
somebody under the protection OF anony-
nifty, are responsible for the Powell bill.
! 1t is, in fact, purely personal reprisal
on the part of the senator, who, in com
mon with other public men, has been
maligned in newspaper which will
neither take editorial responsibility for
what it says nor compel the contributor
TO sign his name. Rutland Herald.
The Messenger feels that it is join
ed by the great majority OF newspapers
| in Vermont in regretting that there has
been occasion for the proposal OF such
legislation as is contained in Senator
Powells bill There have been excellent
reasons why the state has been able TO
be proud OF the honesty and high charac-
ter OF the newspapers published within
its borders as a rule and it is double
pity if this rebuke has to be visited on
all because OF the shortcomings Of very
insignificant minority.
| The basis for the proposed legislation
is not Senator PowelPs desire to avenge
himself on some journal which has per-
mitted unsigned attacks to be made on
him, according to his own statement,
but because some well known citizens
of his city have been the target OF such
attacks. 1t is also believed that some
editors have been in the habit of writing
to themselves, expressing views for
which they did not want to assume edir
torial responsibility.
Beyond all doubt when an editor
writes to himself in this way he is
exhibiting journalistic cowardice OF the
most extreme kind, and is not deserv-
ing OF the respect OF his fellows OF the
fourth estate nor OF the public If there
are such in Vermont their punishment
would be welcomed by the great msiori-
ty oil editors even more than by the
public.
There is no profession which should
demand higher character qualifications
than that of journalism. OF course there
is an ideal which cannot be attained by
mortals, who are prone TO make errors,
but there should be that honorable in
tent on the part OF editors which the
public has a right to expect.

bottom Of il all, it is always a question
OF character as well az OF talent. A
following that is practising arts OF deep
tion may last little while, but he can
not last long. The man who stays is
the man who has the staying power;
and the staying power is not merely
intellectual; II is moral
Regardless of whether the legislature
passes the Powell act or not il is high
time that the Vermont Press associa-
ton undertook TO consider some plan
whereby a member who is guilty Of nm
professional acts could be- punished. The
committee on professional conduct, such
ns exists m the bar association, might
serve as guide. The fourth estate

Hon. J.. Frank Hanly, the speaker,
was born in log cabin in Champaign
county, ILL.,, in 1868, not many miles
from the old home OF Abraham Lincoln.
He received most of his earlier eduea :
ton at his mothers knee, under her tu-
torship. He was able TO attend school
only for few weeks each year. At Is
years OF age he started out to find his
way in the world, Finally, by teaching
school in the winter months, and by
careful saving, he was enabled to take a
short course in the Eastern Illinois Nor.
NAL school at Danyille, and thus better
prepare himself to teach.
His first participation in public affairs
was in 1888 in the interest Of the Re-
publican ticket. He was admitted TO
the bar in 1889 In 1890 he was nom
mated and elected to the state Senate.
In 1894 he was elected to Congress from
the ninth district of Indiana by ma.
iority of over 5000. In 1904 he was
elected governor Of Indiana by a ma
iority of almost $4,000, and the four
years OF his administration mark an
epoch in the history, not only OF In
diana, but OF the nation. History for
righteousness was made in those years,
history that will love, for forces for civ
ic betterment were set in motion that
will never stop until evil is dead.
Honest in his public service, pure in
life full OF rewards and honors, lite
that has been without the slightest stain
of cowardice or double-dealing, he brings,
in his presentation OF public questions,
the force of a compelling and mighty
personality. Ii is the art Of public
speech at its best; it is oratory at it's
highest.
Mr.. Hanly is chairman of the execu-
tive committee OF the Flying Squadron,
and as such has given much time and
unremitting toll to its organization and
planning of its itinerary. This he is do
ing without monetary reward. Governor
of his state at 81, he laid further politi-
cal ambition on the altar OF this mighty
cause and has become one of its FORE
most advocates, bringing 10 It's defense
zeal that never flags and an eloquenee
that persuades and convinees. II viii be
an actual loss TO all those who fail to
hear him.
Mr.. Hanly will speak in tarre on the

as their coming is necessary that their
parents may attended. Because of the
