De fivered b . ¥ oie e Rutered « Washingtov, as adhe tole patton TO MAIL There is one secret which the trial and conviction of the Chicago banker, Walsh, has exposed in all its sinister signitt + cance, é Tt constitutes a warning to every reading man end woman in the United States, It shouts aloud to people who are being fooled Walsh was convicted ‘on points of law. That is something: ‘A jory found him guilty of juggling with other people s money for his own advantage. Unless something unforeseen turns up, this man, reputed to be worth $40,000,000, must go to jail as a common criminal. But, most of all, this trial has exposed the powerful and poisonous influence of thé subsidized newspaper. It shows how, much it is worth to be able to keep on teli- ing people that the green grass is blue, and also that if you tet! them often enough and loudly enough, a great many of them will believe it. It is the real thing in gold bricks Walsh was a man of afiairs, From poverty he had won! his way to affluence. His name was tacked onto corporation | after corporation—railroads, electric companies, coal compa-/ nies, quarries, news companies, trust companies, savings banks | and even one great national bank. He thought in millions, not in beggarly hundreds, He had axes to grind, irons to’ heat,| trades to make, and the big game of polities to play, politics is the arena where nearly everything is played these — who don't Ket days. Politics sells coal and unloads stock and buys franchises and get deposits, and Walsh was one of the boys. He played! politics for all there was in him. Walsh's game was—Walsh. First of all he wanted—influence. He saw that it was expedient that he should make public : He perceived how he’ could plant himself a guaranteed | ovehard, so that he would need only to gooout and shake the trees, and the ripe golden fruit would fall into his hat , In 18% he founded the Chicago Chronicle. It was labeled | a *#Democratic newspaper.” But it wasn't. It was a Walsh us too.” Unfortunately. the Chronicle readers did not sense this creed. They knew Walsh was one of the party leaders and that the Chronicle was one of the party newspapers. It fairly breathed Authority. Chronicle. Chronicle. The Chronicle could pay bis debts and furnish him credit. When he got ready to bamboozle the public, what easier than to open up a systematic campaign through the columns of this honest newspaper and drag in the party by the heels to stand sponsor for whatever plan might be in the air for the further emolument of the man behind the ink pot? *"* ‘Walsh admitted on the stand that the Chronicle cost him $100,000 a month! ‘That's how mach it was worth to him as a tool—and Walsh didn’t throw away his money. He wasn't that sort. So this is the story how the lightning came down and struck one subsidized newspaper. There are plenty more. Perhaps the lightning hasn't had time to get around, or maybe there isn't enough lightning. ‘These are days of education. The. public is learing its newspapers as well as its morals and its politics. It isn't so hard to spot the tainted press when you once wake up to the fact that there is.a tainted press. It gives itself away. Its indignation is always too rabid; its adulation is always too fawning. ‘The check book of the man behind the ink pot shows through its editorials, in its paragraphs, in its news stories. It és a iraud and a liar.
