through the High Ore mine, but all
ways were closed A desperate at
tempt was made by Wirta and six

"a Y in it just now would be a
plenty" remarked a man the
other day.
He was invited to write what
he wanted to say with the assur-
ance that it would be published
if his signature accompanied it,
He very promptly declined the
tender, remarking that cit would
hurt his business. " There are a
lot of people willing anxious in
fact, for things to be said in the
newspapers providing they hurt
the business of somebody else and
not their own.
What newspaper has not had
this very same experience with
this very same yellow tadpole of a
citizen who sputters and sputters
about what ought to be printed
in a newspaper and what ought to
be omitted9 And yet when you
invite the coward to be response
bic for the manuscript he wants
you to publish he whines like a
sick dog. skulbs behind this pre-

text and that and wobbles out OF
the office with a crouch.
That is not all. He writes in that
he will stop the paper if you don I
print what he himself will not
sign. Yet if you were to suggest
to him that his threat to stop his
paper is pure and simple coer-
cion through blackmail, he would
howl like a tom cat with its tail
stepped on.
The fellow who threatens to
stop his paper is trying to do to
the newspaper in a small way the
very thing that he would CON
denim as criminal in a corporatiai
that tried in any way to throttl'
the freedom Of the press Threat
ening to stop the paper is an at
tempt at intimidation.
But it is worse than that
Threatening to stop the paper is
a confession of bigoted intoler-
ance on the part of the delin-
quent subscriber that pulls such
bone, for it means that he does
not want the paper to have the
courage of its own convictions

after all, but insists that il shall
have only the conyiations Of the
stop my paper" threatener.
Big magazines with circulation
piling towards the million and
great metropolitan newspapers
are pcstered with this pest who
wants them TO publish something
and assume responsibility FOR
authorship which the pest is too
big coward to assume and who
threatens TO stop his subscription
if they do not do his bidding.
Why do newspapers have these
annoyances! Well, why do hotels
sometimes have bed bugs and hen
houses have lice Tribune. Ma
