There is a noticeable reaction throughout the coun- try against the big, blanket journals and in favor of the small papers | which sontain the same facts as the big ones, but do not “pad” the | news, In these busy days newspaper readers do not have the time to | pore over @ or 80 columns of long-winded articles each evening. They spend all of thelr time get- want to be informed, but do not propose ting this information out of blanket sheets. The Star ts printed in its own establishment if they can help it ma big Hoe It hae the perfecting press capable of turning out 12.000 copies per hour me- chanical and editorial facilities for turning out an eight or 6-page paper, but has no incentive for appearing af @ blanket aheet The people of Seattle have shown their apprectation of the Star In ite pres- ent form.

In the city of Cincinnati, for instance, the Post, « one-cent paper has attained the enormous da! ulation of 170,000 copies, and has almost displaced all competitors. In Cleveland, Onto the Press, a one-cent. paper, has a paid dally circulation of over 100,000 copies. In St. Louis the one-cont Chronicle is soaring up near the 100 000 mark. These are byt examples out of scores of canes where the on cent pupers have been recently received into popular favor ‘The only saving of expense to the publishers of one-cent im the tems of type-setting and white paper. The cost of getting the | news for a one-cent publication is o* great as it ts for the blanket nows- paper. The entire news field must be covered each day. As a rule the one-cent paper discards all superfluous matter and gets all the kernet of each story. The opposition big paper runs in al! of the useless stuff that it gets and then pads the woo!e in a most tiresome styte. “The foregoing statement is made for the benefit of hundreds of new readers of the Star who have not yet obtained a statement of its aime and purposes. papers Is ————, At the first meeting of a new naational temperance organization in Chicago the other night. a would-be temperance dynamiter from Kan- eas City startied the brethren by demanding that dynamite should be ueed as a “greet mora! agent” in blowing up distillerie#, breweries and salons. Of course his notions were frowned upon. Such extremist champ’ ae this would-be dynamiter, injure and discredit, uniess promptiy dis- owned, the best of causes. The temperance movement has surely suft- fered enough from ‘milder cranks to be entitled to exemption from the load of carrying a dynamite advocate. ‘ -—_——— What has become of Dreyfus?
