Boisar T g A g e e A e THE OMAHA DALY BEE: MONDAY BUSY NEW YORK EDITORS. How the Great Journalists of the Metropolis Do Their Work. THE "SUN" REPORTORIAL STYLE. 0da System of the “Herald" — How the “Times" Is Managed—Daily Work of Colonel John A. Cockerill Benjamin Northrop in St. Louis Re- publican: Between 4:30 and 5 o'clock every week day afternoon a broad- shouldered, sqaarely-built man stands on the steps of the Sun office and glance: up and down the great tide of humanity which pours through Park row. He generally has a copy of the Evening Sun in his hands. After a moment’s pause he joins the stream and is borne on its cur- rent past the rapids at Frankfort street, Deftly he steers his through the whirlpool at the bridge entrance and is safely landed at last on the steps of the y hall elevated road station. In spite of hs three score and odd years, his strength and activity are marked, He stands as erect as Roscoe Conklin, and his gait is as steady and graceful as Rowell’s. Many a younger man might well envy his splendid manhood. He is Charles A. Dana, the editor of the Sun. Mr. Dana is the most pictur- esque figure in metropolitan newspaper- dom. He is the sole survivor of the half-dozen intellectual giants who made the 1ast quarter of a century the golden age of New York journs changes of the last two decades have not altered his position. He was in the front rank of thinkers at the close of the war. So he is to- He has kept st with the times. One reason of is Mr. Dana’s methodical life and his indomitable industry. One of his favorite maxims is: ‘‘No one was ever killed by hard work.” and he 1s a living illustration of its truth. On every day but Sunday he may be found in his plainly furnished room, and without wasting a moment he begins his work. Ho has read the morning papers at his country house, and his mind is clearly made up regarding the course his paper will pursue upon any new questions which have arisen since he last visited his office. There is no indecision in his mental methods. He takes his stand clearly and is ready to express himself fearlessly and in un- mistakable terms, He does not trim and has never been known to beat around the bush. After heaving the suggestions of his staff of editorial writers, and adding to them a few pertinent ones of his own, the work of writing is. begun. Mr. Dana writes udily and makes few erasures. 4 o'clock he has read in proof the edi- torials_submitted by his assistants and marked those which must go in the next morning’s edition. Nothing' goes in that has not met with his approval. The editorial page of the Sun is just what Mr. Dana desires it to be. It represents his own ideas and no one el , and when ho leaves the office THE PAGE 18 CLOSED. Within four or five hours he has done aday's work. His system is so perfect that no time is wasted—not a minute. One of Mr. Dana's chief aids is his son Paul, upon whom the editorial con- tro! of the Sun devolves when he is out of town. He resembles his father in his methods of thought and work. The news columns of the Sun rank with its editorial page in intercst. They are under the exclusive charge of Chester S. Lord, the managing editor, and John Bogart, the city editor. The feature of the Sun is its terse form of expression. It publishes all the news in the smallest yossible sy Oftentimesasingleline, \eadline, takes the place of a half col- umn of description and leaves nothing more to be desired. Another characteristic of the Sun is its similarity of style throughout. The § might have been by one mam. This has been the work of years, and is owing to the employment of the best writers of the local staff in the revision of copy. The telegraph and ass nt city editors have all won fame as brilliant revorters. They have been schooled in the pe- culiarly snappy Sun sty Instead of u|\l|/n|n them new. the are kept in the office on general oc Slona; anatall: the matter published passes through their hends, They alter awkward sentences, cut down prosy des i ve the stories a_pol- ish which the skill of the writers lacked. Congressman Amos J, Cum- mings was the head of the news dep ment of the Sun, and in that place he innugurated the Sun style. This style is now maintained, and if the Sun were to change its ent staff of reporters to-morrow the reader would notice no difference in his favorite paper. In no other office in New York could this be done, and in no other office has it ever been attempted. THIE HERALD'S ODD SYSTEM, The Herald is conducted on a very different plan. At least one and some- times two oceans separate James Gor- don Bennett from his paper. Yot he is in absolute charge of its columns., The editoriul page neyer expresses an opin- ion upon any (\m-suun of moment with- out his sanction. He is in nstant communication with his editors, is probably better informed of the details of the office work than any one man in his service. The head of every depart- ment of lho Herald owes his place cn- tirely to Mr. Benunett. The managing editor eannot_discharge the city editor, nor the city editor the sporting editor. The editor-in-chief cannot interfer with the news colnmns, nor can the tele- graph editor meddle with the editorial comments. Every forenoon the Rev. Dr. Hepworth, who is the chief editor, calls his assistants together for a conference. Every topic which is to be wreated upon comes up for discussion and is regularly voted upon. Dr. Hepworth hus the veto power, but this may be overridden by application to Mr. Bennett, oWilliam Meigham, the city editor, has complete control of the city deps ment and is responsible for everything which appears in his columns. Julius Chambers, the managing editor directs the general news policy of the paper. He orders special articles, passes upon suggestions submitted and assigns the space which certain feature articles are 10 oceup; Sporting Editor Stemmeyer has coutrol of the sporting news. He directs the work, edits the copy and is solely responsible to Mr. Bennett for what appears. The same is true of the editors of the obituary department. They do nothing but compare mortuary notices. Thay have the lives of 2 promwent persons ready for publication A moment’s notice, Any omiss part would be visited the ONAL WHATH OF MR, B¥ v cumbersome of the Herald ottice, b day by cable he issues his direc- u|~\“lh« heads of his departinents., weelk they report to hiwm by letter, These weekly reports are unigue. The editors are obliged to criticise the ac- tions of their co-workers. The manag- iug editor way ‘write that the tele- graphic reports from the west are not complete enough, or the sporting editor may comment upon the lack of religious intelligence in the column of notices. This system of espoinage is en- tirely friend It is pre: Bennett’s orders, and with Mr. nett's employes his orders arc law. This stimulates the workers to a cer- tain extent, however sure they ¥ of kindly criticism, and in flm end 18 probably productive of some good. In order to still further stimulate them, Mr. Bennett has established a system of prize giving. The man who writes the best headlines each day is rewarded hy the addition of a sum of money to his weckly salary. The reporter who hands in the best story is s ly favored. Each day a copy of the Herald 18 mailed toMr. Bennett. Thename of every con- tributor 1s marked upon his contribu- tion. Thusthe lvrnprh'lnr is thoroughly informed regarding the individual work of his staff. If an article particularly please his fancy, he cables the editor to add, say #60, or even 8100 to the writer il If, on the other hand, an nrhl'\v offends the long-dis- tance owner, he promptly notifies the editor in charge that the unfortunate author must be dismissed. Still another system is in vogue in the Times office. George Jones, the owner of fifty-one of the 100 chares of stock, is seldom long absent from his office. Mr. Jones’ official title is that of a publisher, and his salary 1s $10,000 a year. His son, Gilbert, occupies the place of business manager and superin- tendent of the press room with a salary of $10,000 more. As publisher of the Times, Mr. Jones is not often seen in the editorial rooms of that paper. He is, nevertheless, in charge of that de: partment. His chief editor is Charles Miller, and he daily consults with him regarding anything of importance. While he mnever interferes with the conduet of the paper, as Mr. Bennett does with the work in the Herald oftice, he knows just what views he wants ex- pressed, and he makes it his business to see that his wishes observed. A sit- uation on the Times is as NEARLY A PERMANENCY as a newspaper situation can be. The editorial writers and heads of depart- ments seldom change. Thi ility is reflected in a measure in the columns of the paper, which is the most_conserva- tive morning journal in the city Mr. Jones reac J morning about 10 u'u]uck. and remains at his desk until late in the afternoon. There is no man in his employ who works harder or accomplishes more. He is a safe business man, who would have made equally as great a success as a banker or manufacturer as in his pres- ent business. He is slow to make up his mind, and even slower to alter his decision when it has once been formed. The growth of the Times, there- fore, has been & species of development. Step by step it has advanced in prosperity and inch by inch it has widened 1ts field, Its special features have been added grad- ually. Years ago Mr. Jones, through John G. Reid, his managing editor, be- gan increusing the correspondence of the Times. This has been added to each year til now 1t has the most compléte special telegraphic service of any paper in the city. The bills from the telegraph companies alone often reach $1,000 a week and seldom fall be- low $500. It is th only New York paper which has a_special man from its home office at Ch it differs from most of its contempor: in the fact that its staff correspondents are usually graduates of its loeal depart- ment,” and, therefore, thoroughly con- versant with the style and the require- ments of the paper. Ben- happens to Tn certain direction more enterprise than most ur his ri ‘«1 would care about giving him credit for. Those directions, though, usualty of a strictly commercial relation. In the way of presses he has adopted ul e iEnaTRITRL1E inprovements and | spared no money or efforts to bring this department of his paper to the highest degree of proficiency. But his latest plan will require much more money than any he has hitherto projected. By the 1st of May he will begin the ered tion of a new building on the site of th present Times office. It will stand as high as the Tribune building. This new structure is expected to _be one of the most unique buildings _in the country. It will be particularly designed for” news- paper offices. O _the branches of the ele e a direct connection will be three elevators which will run-night and day to the very ton of its thirteen stories, and it is expected that under its roof will be sheltered the majority of the correspondents for the leading out-of- town papers, who will be offered spe facilities for the handling of local news. per in each city will ha telegraphic wire, and spondents will have the ilege of using all the Times’ It is a big scheme, and the c are that few rooms will go a-begging. Whitelaw Reid, of the Tribune, does not devote the same amount of time to the management of the details of his office that he did during the few years following Horace Gre ’s death. The system of the office is s0” well arranged that this is not necessary. He keeps a close supervision, however, upon the ed- itorial page, and whether he is in town or not, he is in close communication at all times with his writers. Managing Editor Nicholson is bis first lieutenant, and in Mr. Reid’s absence his word is supreme. In pleasant weather Mr. Reid usually walks down Broadway to his office from his handsome mansion on Madison avenue, arriving the be- tween 1 and 2 o’clock in the afternoon. He is a rapid walker, and has the gift of executive ability developed to o high dogros, Ho coadenses bis Jabors fhto smallest space of time. JOSEPH PULITZER, the owner of the World, would proba- bly be at his desk to-day, had he fol- lowed Mr. Reid’s methods, instead of being an almost hopeless invalid in a California health resort. He has broken himself down by overwork. From the time of his purchase of the World in 1883 until a few months ago, he devoted every day and nearly every night to the building” up of his project. How well he succeeded is a matter of history, but at wnat a frightful cost it was done ! In his absence the entire management of tbe paper rests with Colonel John A. Cockerill, the managing editor, Colonel Cockerill is not as old as he looks. Hard work,and a great deal of it, has furrowed his forehead with tell- tale lines and streaked his dark hair with gri He may not be the busiest editor in New York, but it is not possi- ble for anyone to excel him in that re- spect, He ves at his office at noon and hurries direct to his little room in the overcrowded, ill-arranged editorial floor of the World building.
