THE NEWSPAPER.

Extracts from a speech made b,
James Kelley November 26, 1912, be
fore the students of the course O
journalism in Notre Dame University
The man in charge of a paper
must be impersonal, as a judge,
and his every act must bear the
acid test of a duty to the people
as a whole.
4 admit that sometimes things
are printed that should not APP
pear Sometimes the man at the
head OF the business makes
mistake but more frequently the
mistake is made elsewhere. The
thoughtlessness and heedlessness
OF youth and inexperience Is large
ly responsible for this kind of
error.
l believe the suppression of
news is more OF q wrong than
the printing Of a piece of news
that possibly might better not
have been written. BY improper
suppression a newspaper sells It's
soul and bertays its readers. To
my mind 1t is the high treason OF

PAT ON PROHIBITION

STANDING PAT ON PROHIBITION
There appears to be no loubt but
that prohibition in Russia is final and
absolute
The leading medical society of Rus
sia has issued a comprehensive state
ment on the evils of alcohol in which
argument are advanced against the
substitution of light drinks Cor vodka.
The report declares beer and wine
are particularly danger Is because,
being weaker and more pleasant to
the taste, they attract women and
children The society further de-
clares that reports of the use OF pois-
onous substitutes for liquor are great
ly exaggerated.
The duma recently held an extended
debate on what disposition should be
made of the 260,O0O,O0O gallons of
vodka seized by the government as a
consequence Of prohibition. Some
want it destroyed, others favor con-
verting it iato commercial uses, but
all agree that 1t shall not remain as a
temptation to later ministry to re-
open the government monopoly on

the wish that vodka shall be prohibit.

hope he succeeded. We believe the

the purposes of the association are

He went to Hannibal to reveal the
secrets Of Iowa enthusiasm to the
Missouri Inhabitants. Mr.. Clum told
his audience that Iowa took eight out
Of possible ten prizes at the San

was a competitor. Iowa Is some state

WAR AFFECTS NEWSPAPERS.

The war is beginning to affect
newspapers also, even as to the COM
position of their print papers. 1t is
the eternal question Of dye stuffs
again Chemical compounds have
been used by paper manufacturers to
color print paper, to bleach it, in
fact. And these compounds have come
mainly from the German factories
which have excelled in almost
monopolizing this Industry. Print
papers, as made from wood pulp are
naturally of yellowish tint. but pub
fishers have preferred the white
papers. But they have had to come
to the yellows at last The Baltimore
Sun explains the change at some
length to its readers. The Sun says,
after thinking it all over, it prefers
the natural tint for it is softer and
that after we are accustomed to it
we may never go back to the pure
whites. that is our own opinion,
says the Cedar Rapids Republican.
But the war is affecting newspa-
pers in other ways also, many of the
ingredients that go into newspapers
have already gone up in price and
are still going UP, among them inks,
to say nothing Of metal which is used
for casting in the linotypes and the
plates from which the printing is
done. Many newspapers will feel the
effects of these increases seriously
and they will be compelled, sooner
or later, to get more for the things
they have to sell to recoup them
selves and the only things that news
papers have to sell are subscriptions
and advertising space.

SOM ETHING.

SOME HING.
Sitting by the glimmer
OF the fire tonight, g.
Though the glowing embers
Sparkle with delight
There's sense of something.
Vaguely understood.
Stealing DER the spirit
AS a shadow would.
Is it that the shutter
Shudders in the wind
AS a lance of moonshine
Shivers. through the blind?
Or the lamplight dancing
In pretended glee
AS the keyhole whistles
In a minor key?
Footsteps on the sidewalks,
Crunching through the snow,
Seem to whisper something
OF the long ago
And the merry greetings
OF the passers-by
Seem like truant echoes
Coming home to die.
] have coaxed my pencil
For smiling face,
But the sketch is frowning
And devoid of grace;
And the airy waltzes
OF my violin
Die away in dirges
Ere well begin.
Lay away the story
Though the theme is sweet
There's lack of something
Makes it incomplete;
There's a nameless yearning-
Strangely underlined
For something better
Than the common kind.
Something! oh, that something,
We may never know
Why the soul is haunted
Ever thus and so,
TIL the longing spirit
Answers to the call
OF the trumpet sounding
Something after all

New York, June 14.-Railway man
ayers and officials of railway unions
who have been discussing wages and
hours of work, believed that this would
be the last day of their conference and
that it would end in a deadlock. The
conference has been in session most OF
the time since Jan. 1, and is estimated
to have cost upwards of 100000
The union men have rejected fatty
a proposal by the managers that no
man shall be paid twice for the same
time, altho his day may be divided be-
tween two classes of work. Some of the
105 questions submitted by the men to
the managers remained to be answered
today.

cials should be empowered to exercise
their own judgment in calling strike.
Should that be decided in the affirma-
tive another conference would be called.
Forced by w. G. Lee, president of
