Concerning
 Newspapers
(From Editor and Publisher)

l VfoW Ioikot Aha schshSAt
 It is hard to realize the predica- ment of a great city suddenly de- prived of all its newspapers. We cannot fully appreciate the value of any great public utility until we have to do without it. From grim experience we know that a traffic tieup cuts off our legs, that a coal famine chills us, and that every other serious break in the ordinary run of daily affairs causes great inconvenience to the public and embarrassment and restriction to all business. But a tieup of all the newspapers of city deprives the. entire public at once of eyes, ears and world intelligence.
 Such is the deplorable situation in the two great English cities of Liverpool and Manchester, where the newspapers are suffering com plete paralysis as result of strikes declared last month. Some efforts in the way of small issues of pho- tographic process afforded little relief to the general benighted con- dition.
 What this means to a city is be- yond meresconjecture. Some hint of it maybe gathered from the sore experiences of Winnipeg, which passed through like disaster and has furnished fugitive accounts of the effects Ordinarily" ac- cording to one account, all is life and gayety in the streets ot Win. nipeg at this season of the year, but over the city now hangs pail of dreariness and desolation.
 The first effect is the depriving of the people of all authentic news of the day. The widest rumors become current throughout the city. Ignorace heads an interminable procession of doubts, suspicious, anxieties and fears. Having no circulating medium of intelligence, the great mass of the population is utterly unable to discern what to believe and what not to believe, what to do and what not to do, what to expect and what not to expect. In the present deli- cate labor situation there is no limit to apprehension in Liverpool land Manchester as to what may be happening beyond the veil throughout all England and in all the world. Business cannot go on normally-is it worth while that it should go on at all? These are but suggestions of the grave con- fusion into which the public mind is thrown by lack of general in. telligence.
 The first material effect, of course, is the tremendous decrease in business. Having no medium ot advertising, the stores suffer enormous losses. Theaters. unable to announce their attractions and the general depression causing many to remain at home. The ex- perience of Winnipeg clearly dem- onstrates that without newspapers business cannot be effectively car. ried on and the daily routine life of city cannot function.
 This realization of the import- ance of the newspaper must im- press upon editors and publishers a higher sense of their responsi- bilities. All the more keenly must they realize that they owe it to their communities to be accurate, honest and fair in every particular. General intelligence is the light of public life. and to guide it aright it must be genuine. Worse than worthless is news that is not true.
