In any position but that of editor the public is able to seperate the individual home from the collective citizen. But if an editor does not please them it is at his pocket they aim. Thus it is the newspapers learn who their friends are. “The man who reads a newspaper and admires it all the year around, yet gives his business support to some other concern, is not a friend to the former newspaper. Admir- ation alone will not run a newspaper. ‘There are too many men who expect an editor to slave in self-defence of their pet notions and hobbies, advo- cate their duties against the strongest opposition and coolly withhold their business support, by which alone a country newspaper can live.” CAUSTIC COMMENT. LA. G. Rutledge.] Bad luck gets blamed for a lot of poor guessing. Yes, son—you wonder what the girl sees in you to love—and so do others, so do others. Some men will waste half an hour figuring out where to hang a sign, ““Ihis is My Busy Day.” The man who wants to praise yon puts it off until tomorrow. The men who have fault to find will get to you today. “I need Knox,” says Taft. The president holds that the old saying, “Every Knox a boost,” is especially true in the case of Philander C. In this country jailing a suffragist, just when spring stylesare “‘on tap,” would be unconstitutional, as it would be construed as cruel and in- human punishment. The trouble with being quiet and serious when other folks are “cutting up” is that onlookers can’t tell whether you are naturally of a digni- fied disposition or simply lack gump- tion to enjoy yourself. OCEAN LINER GOES ASHORE Acoident In New York Harbor Caused by Fog. ‘New York, May 28—The North German Lloyd passenger steamer Prinzess Alice ran aground near Fort ‘Wadsworth, Staten Island, while pass- ing out of the harbor for Bremen. The accldent was due to the fog. Although the Prinzess Alice was picking her way cautiously through the Narrows the weight of the great steamer forced her bow high on the rocks and almost in touch with the sea wall which surrounds Fort Wads- worth. The vessel's stern, however, remained afloat and as the tide was rising when she grounded the captain felt confident of getting his vessel off within a few hours. The Prinzess Alice carries a large number of pas- sengers. There was little excitement ‘when the accident occurred. bringing such clothes to you.
