On Guy p. Gannett

/ don't just remember when l nrst
ran across Mr.. Gannett, but my first
real memory of him is on the
quarterback of his yacht. when he
was the Rear Admiral of the Augusta
fleet of sea- going craft-the North
wind or maybe it was the North
west wind-surely some powerful
and salutary wind; wind that
curled the wave under the forefoot
of the laboring bow.
No one can say that Mr.. Guy P.
Gannett is not courageous and a
hustling man. He has no doubt
about the value of effort and the
need of having responsibility. No
one takes over the care Of a yacht.
who is unwilling to undergo trouble.
I know of no responsibility greater
than to run a sea- going craft-only
one, to run newspaper, which is
two or three.
I assume that he was born to a
place where he might have gone
along without any great exertion and
accumulated money without respon-
sibility or risk. He is son of a sue
cessful man who has been singularly
happy in his relations to society.
His father is real kind and sociable
man, who likes to make his neigh
bors comfortable and who likes to
have happy folk around him.
He broke that spell-did Guy P.
Gannett, the son, and the subject OF
this p:rotrait, by getting into poll
tics. He appeared first as a delegate
to the National Republican Conven-
ton and l will say that ,he did well.
in liberal way and he had a mind of
his own on candidates and platform.
In the meantime he had made money
by his own initiative, in the lumber
business and in various other ways
and had a lovely home in Augusta.
He is now best known as pro-
prietor of a newspaper plant and the
head of a publishing corporation of
considerable Importance in New Eng
land; lately the builder of a fine
newspaper building in Portland and
the reliable finanoier of the same.
He seems to have the common sense
promotion but for public service
which is what the world needs. Per-
sonally I advised Mr.. Gannett to re-
tire from the position of National
Committeeman from Maine so long
as he were running a newspaper,
and he was done so-not that I am
so silly as to believe that my advice
had anything to do with 1t; but be-
cause 1 felt that it was good advice
and I never ask anything for that. l
am convinced that no editor or pub
Usher of a newspaper has any busi-
ness meddling in political parties.
There was a time when every editor
was merely an attachment to the poll
tical kite of one party or another. To-
day, no newspaper can live as an
organ of a marty 0r as representative
of political and personal interests
within that party.
Mr.. Gannett has courage and he
has tact. He never offends and he
speaks easy, He usually has dis
position to accommodate everyone
who asks q favor and he has q
power of accomplishment in that
direction. He is in a position to
WELD great influence. He has dis
position to use it properly.
Mr.. Gannett has a very wonderful
