(From the Oregon Voter. J

(trom the Oregon Voter.)
| So George Putnam has bought the sa
lem Journal! This really is quite al
event in Oregon s public life. For Put
nam belongs in the Sam Jackson elias:
for keen business ability and jaundicet
crouch. He knows how to get a maxi
mum Of efficiency out of minimum OF
expense in running a newspaper, which
knowledge is rare possession for mar
of genuine editorial ability. And botl
jackson and Putnam are shrewd edi-
tors.
! Putnam is a wiry-minded of wiry
physique. He has fought his own wa,
up in the newspaper business. His first
big experience was as editor of a Scripps
daily in Spokane, many years ago, and
he actually made business success of
q penny Scripps paper in what then was
a town of 10000 or 10000 people. A
really brilliant business achievement.
And he certainly was. thorn in the
sides of the business men of Spokane
until he quit the Seripps people. For
his pen was full of stingers, and he had
a nose for the kind of news that bo-
thers, with faculty of tanning green
reporters to write with sharp hook.
To say that he won the respect of the
Spokane business element is putting it
mildly. Their fear of him was only ex-
ceeded by their joy when he left town.
In Portland, Putnam worked on the
Journal for G. S. Jackson, and was a
man after jackson s own heart. Put
nam made good in just those ways that
jackson likes to have a man make good
as an expert in keeping the business
community annoyed by printing the
stuff the great mass of the people like
to read
1t wasn't long before Putnam bought
a Medford paper and made it daily
the Medford Mail-Tribune. He made
one big success Of that paper, handling
its business affairs with remarkable
ability and editing it in way that
made the town and the whole state sit
up and take notice. Local business men
got tired of trying to reason with him,
as they found he knew the newspaper
business a lot better than they did and
knew that what h3y didn It like to have
printed was exactly what the people
liked to read. Like c. s. jackson, he
knew that an advertiser s advice should
always be followed by doing exactly the
opposite if an editor wishes to build up
a popular newspaper. The only way to
work Putnam was to ask him to do what
you didn t want him to do. If he didn I
see through the scheme, and usually he
was sharp enough to see through any
thing, he might fall for it. aLt \
Finally some local interests who want
ed strong republican paper at Medford
managed to finance consolidation OF
the MailTribune with the Sun. They
bought Putnam out to get him out of
the business and paid him good ,pr,cc
to do it. 1t was worth the price, al
though so far the consolidated daily in
Medford has not become republican
enough to suit the republicans. and is
altogether too republican to suit the
Missouri democrats of jackson countys

(From the Portland Spcctator)
One Of the best newspapermen in the
country is George Putnam, on whose
purchase of the Capital Daily Journal
the people of Salem, and, indeed, of the
entire state, are to be congratulated.
Mr.. Putnam has had deal of expert
ence in newspaper work. Some years ago
he was news editor of the Portland Jour
nal, and those who worked with him in
the days of that papers puny you;.f
know how much he contributed toward
its success. As owner and editor of the
Mail-Tribune he not only gave the pee
pie of Medford paper for which they
had every reason to be grateful, but aid
ed in making Medford city of which
the state has reason to be proud. The
Spectator has frequently enjoyed the
happiness of disagreeing with Mr. Put
nam s views, which all it's arguments
and eloquence could not change, because
Mr.. Putnam believed they were right. A
is usually one who does
not own a paper, but can write; jour
nalist, one who. owns a paper, and can
not write. Mr.. Putnam is a journalist
than who there are few more forcible
writers, and newspaperman who has
made very valuable the papers he has
owned. The Spectator expects to see
the Capital Journal become a tower of
strength at Salem and throughout the

But irrespective of whether Salem is
the gamer, it can be said that the state
as whole is bound to take more inter

is even more of an expert hell-raiser
