Editorial Comment
Editorial Influence
Dorchester Democrat Chronicle

Rochester Democrat Chronice)
How often the complaint is heard, when modern
newspapers discussed that the days OF the great
cdityrs-Greeey, Dana and others-have passed:
that have really great editorial pages toda!'
that editorial influence has waned.
The editor of former days, the picturesque figure
who in equally picturesque and spirited phrase
amused astonshed and thrilled his readers; attack
ed his opponents without literary gloves or COM
FUNCTIONS; lauded to the skies his friends and the
causes he favored, has passed with the reading pub
lie whose taste he met
The reader of today feeds upon facts and likes to
make his own judgments He is. therefore, inclined
to look with suspicion on too great emphasis on one
side Of any important public question: and to ask for
the facts en- the other side.
It is the paramount duty of the newspaper Of
today that recognizes its full duty to its readers
and the public to present fully accurately and fairly
in it's news columns the facts which its readers
may base their judgments of current events and
issues; but it is even the duty of the news
paper that completely realizes its responsibility to
make its Interpretation and judgments on the facts
on it's editorial page, complete and as broad
minded possible.
| The successful editorial page of the modern news
paper therefore, interprets and analyses the facts
on both sides of important issues. 1t may indicate
preference but it gives the reader sufficient basis
to make another choice If the facts on the other side
appeal to his judgment.
| Thus on its editorial page the modern newspaper
aims to play completely it's role on the stage OF
civilization based on democracy and enlightenment
that Of medium for the dissemination of the facts
of modern life and Interpretation Of what lies
behind them. Since the judgment in important af
fairs lies with the majority of average citizens, t
whom the newspaper is the readiest and most con
slant of information, the newspaper which
most carefully guards it's editorial page agains
snap or biased judgment best fulfls its duty o
public service. - o. ~
