Press Represents Public

NAhS 3~oktH AfHSTlCdn1
The newspapers understand now bet
ter than ever before that in every
great industrial conflict there are three
parties in interest-labor. capital and
the public-and that the press is the
representative Of the third, for the
rights of the community are the rights
OF all, and are superior to those Of
any class. The importance of defending
the public interest has often been en-
phasized by disclosures of a growing
tendency on the part of labor and
capital to make war on each other
recklessly. and then pool their inter-
ests in settlement that exploits the
unorganized consumers.
Another reason for vigilance by the
press in behalf of the public interes.
is the spread of the dotcrine that a
class should control the production
and distribution of necessaries and
dominate the government itself. That
was long the philosophy promoted by
capitalism; now it Is promulgated by
elements of growing power in the la
Dor unions. In this case, as in the
other. it ia challenge to the basic
institutions of the republic, and the
newspapers instinctively and justly
array themselves against it.
The complaints made against the
press by both employers and workers
are due to the fact that they are lin
ing UP for desperate struggle for
power, and each side is resentful be-
cause the newspapers do not become
its allies. The question of the open
shop or the closed shop is an old one;
but the issue has become acute be-
cause the supporters of the conflicting
systems are mobllizing for what they
intend to be finish fight.

One boy just about the age where

a peculiar incident which took place
on Sabatis street. Sunday morning,
says the Lewiston Journal. A lady

Rev. Harold F. Gustafson of Portland

the dedicatory sermon. He had just

were conducted by Mr. Dresser at his
home. and in the meantime funds
collected for rebuilding the church.
The original structure was built in
