THEATERs AND NEWSPAPERS.

A writer in the Dramatic Mirror approaches
the old question of the relation between the
newspaper and the theatre from new angle.
He dilates on the course to be pursued by the
manager Of the future, who is to free himself
from anything like adverse criticism by the
simple expedient of doing away with the critics.
This new manager IS to approach the advertis-
ing department of a newspaper, Just as does
drygoods merchant patent medicine man.
and buy so much space for so much money and in
it display the attractiveness of what he has to
sell. If the newspaper wants anything at the
theater, it will buy it. Through this simple ar
rangement, easily to be attained, the editorial
department of the newspaper will be entirely
divorced from the theater Just how soon this
ideal condition is to be attained and whether If
is to become universal at the outset the writer
doesn 4 make clear. but it may be inferred from
the general tenor of his remarks that it will he

POOLING THE PUBLIC.

Great Britain has withdrawn from the Inter
national or Hearst news service the use OF its
cables and other facilities for the transmission
of news The service is charged with falsltica-
ton of intelligence, publishing sham messages
and with other abuses Of its privileges and
breaches of faith.
This action will be commended by reason
able Americans as entirely proper There is
enough disquieting news in the world today
without faxed accounts of London burning
up and other horrors that never occurred. The
American people should not be narrowed need
lessly and taught to distrust all news from
abroad in order that lurid, lying headline
may sell few more papers. The Gate City pre-
sumes, however, that there still is demand IN
Keokuk and elsewhere for so-called Sunday,
morning newspaper, - printed in Chicago at
ten 0 'clock Saturday night and sent out from
there an hour later in order that it may be on
sale here early the next day, featuring sensa-
tons that have no basis Of fact and are
but the productions of the active minds Of
set of wholesale takers.

ness of America from European az.
fairs, so long as there is no infringe

the American public has viewed calm

tivities of German submarines off the

bors without protest being made by

Would "can Mr.. English.

Washta Journal: The Eagle Grove
Eagle recommends that the next gov
ernor kick English out Of the Office
of insurance commissioner as soon
as he gets chance. Good idea. Eng
lish ought to be canned, and so had
everybody else who has anything to
do with fixing the present insurance
rates in Iowa. One day last spring a
young squirt Of a fellow came to
Washta, alone and single-handed, and
readjusted the fire insurance rate Of
the whole town, boosting the price
SO high that 1t is almost prohibitive,
and now we are told that it would be
a penitentiary offense for an agent to
cut those rates. That's one-man
power, with a vengeance. 1t is high
time for the state to take over the
insurance business.

Secretary Daniels jumped instantly to the con-
cus;on that the raid Of the q 53 was perfectly
right and proper, other officials of the govern

Josephus are bordering the matter with grave
concern If it was legal to destroy ships Of
neutral nations, Holland and Norway, why
would it not be legal to sink ships that flew our

Alleged powerful minds in and near the
white house may and probably will split legal
hairs about the matter for time; but does it
not seem a pitiful, shameful thing that our de-
stroyers stood by consenting while raider
sank helpless costly, neutral ships and set their
crews and passengers adrift in small boats on
the open seat
