The Standard Passes.

Do the people really want daily news
paper which does not print the scandals Of
the day! We are prompted to ask this ques-
ton because of the demise of the Chicago
Daily Standard. The Standard began its brief
lie by appealing to the clergy and people of
the churches for support, and by announcing
that its news columns would be free from SEN
sational matter. In other words, it would not
play up" the news of the divorce courts for
instance or cater to the craving for the SEN
satscnal The paper was to be conducted on
the highest plane and from the start it made
. hid for the support Of the Christian people.
while regretting its passing, yet one feels
bound to say that it did not measure up to ex-
peetations A newspaper which did not deal

ceca life as it is. not as it ought to be. And

The fact is, that a newspaper which does
