UNEMPLOYED NOT ALL ANAR-
CHISTS.
Because an anarchist threw a bomu
killing one policeman and wounding
two others in Union Square New
York, is no excuse or reason for con-
demning the mass of the unemployed
in that city, as has been done by a
number of the metropolitan papers.
Force of circumstances over which
they have no control have caused
thousands of mechanics and labor-
ers in all the large cities and many
of the smaller cities and towns of
the country to be idle, to feel the
pinch of hunger, the sting of direst
poverty.
In Philadelphia, the situation is
strained, only prompt measures upon
Guthrie says there's no limit to
Oklahoma City' ambition because the
former is miffed on account of the lat-

"NEWSPAPER'S GREATEST
ASSET.
The Editor and Publisher of New-
York is a publication intended chief-
ly to interest and instruct newspapers
men. In a recent issue it has an ar-
ticle the keynote of which is that
good will is the greatest asset any
newspaper can have. "Good will,"
it says, "is based on public confidence
and that comes only after trial. The
newspaper that touches the goal line
is the one that is honestly conducted
in the interests of the community it
serves. It stands for political as well
as moral righteousness. It protects
its public from fraud, graft and evil
whenever it has the opportunity to
do so. It wears no collar, is no man's
organ and doesn't flinch when danger
threatens. It does its level best to
help the people to think right, to do
right and to get the best there is out
of life. It supports good men for
o8W and opposes the unworthy ev-
en though they may be the nominees
of its own party."
But there is another kind of news-
paper influence which is secured by
quite different means, and it is these
means which make such an influence
doubly pernicious The fundamental
error of some papers is in mistaking
for good will and public confidence a
fear of bludgeoning tactics, on which
they chiefly rely. Such papers rarely
fail to do some good from time to
time. There is a veneer of public-
spirit and even civic morality whicL j
blinds the eyes of many worthy peo- j
pie to , .-w-heoiintr and caletllati j'
policy j deriving it. There is all th>- j
difference in the world between a uni-
versal,normal goodness and the policy
which assumes a virtue when it has ii
not. Specious appeals to prejudice, j
the "feeding fat of ancient grudges" |
is usually crassly successful to a de-
gree, but in the long run confidence
must give way to the disagreeable
conviction of having been used as a
means for attaining private and self-
ish ends.
Above all, there can be no genuine
good will on the part of those who
are afraid. A paper may have qual-
ities which swell circulation state-
ments, but circulation is by no means
conclusive evidence of friendly inter-
est on the part of subscribers, who
often read and curse. If the time ever
comes, and it usually does, when pop-
ular resentment of such a paper's bul
lying methods takes tangible form in
an organized movement,the many who
have silently suffered from or disap-
proved of the paper's tactics view the
proceedings with a great deal of satis
faction and much active encourage-
ment.—Kansas City Journal.

SAMPLE OF INCONSISTENCY.
The esteemed Cincinnati Enquirer,
one of the oldest and most influential
papers in the middle west, i.-- about
as inconsistent as conservative in mat
ters of polities and public affairs in
certain parts of the country. In com-
menting on the speech of Senator La-
Follette in regard to the Aldrich
banking bill and the reply by James
B. Forgan, president of the First Na-
tional bank of Chicago, it says:
Of course this journal does not
stand by Mr. Forgan, but he was no
more severe than Senator LaFolette
and many public men of his sort
have been toward bankers and busi-
ness men. All such language on eitli-
ft* side, ought to be interdicted.
Present the facts and let the reading
public do its own thinking and
swearing.
The most glaring sample of incon-
sistency and self contradictory evi-
dence supplemented with ignorance
of lime and place is shown in the
subjoined paragraph:
Probably Oklahoma will have to un
dergo a great deal of discipline and
chastisement before it con expect to
be a respectable state. It was born
in iniquity, and has as wretched a
constitution as was ever imposed on
u people. Its official establishment is
largely of the sort 4hat doesn't dis-
turb itself about what it is, but just
so it has the office*. But they make
