JOURNALISM.
"Every owner, editor, or re
porter of a eonscieneiously and
ably conducted newspaper or
periodical is an asset of real value
to the whole community. It
would be difficult to overestimate
the amount of good which can be
done by the men responsible for
such a publication-responsible
for its editorial columns, respon
sible for its news columns, re
sponsible for its general policy.
We have miny newspapers and
periodicals big and little, of this
kind. Rut we also have many
that are not of this kind."
Theodore Roosevelt.

management has done much to injure
the business and business enterprises
and business industries of this city. Pay
no attention to the Journal's knocking.
It is easy to knock, it is silly to knock,
it is ignorant to knock, and the Journal
is knocking. It is wise to boost, it is
helpful to boost, it is sensible to boost,
it is benevolent to boost so let every
good and fair-minded citizen join hands
and boost for the citizens' ticket and
! thus boost for Plattsmouth.
; What is the bais of the character

rock upon which the foundations of in
j telligence and morality rest as they
support the towering superstructure of
a civilized society? To answer that
question we must go back to the be
ginnings of society and look at the first

and the civilizing man. We tied that

involve steady daily labor, any political

property, is inevitably subversive of
civilization. There is much in current
' matters that has its true and repulsive
character revealed when it is brought
to this touchstone.
