The Charms of an Editor 's Life. \ One of the beauties and charms of an editor's ] life is in his dead-heading it on all occasious. No one who has never tasted the sweets of that bliss , can begin to tako m his glory and happi ness. He does $100 worth of advertising for a railroad company , gets a "pass" for a year , ' rides * 2Tj ; and then he is looked upon as dead- ( head half blown . " " i , or a dead-beat. He "puffs" a , concert troupe $10 worth , and gets $1.00 in j "complimeutaries , " and is thus passed "free. " j If the ball is crowded he is begrudged the room he occupies , for if his complimentaries were paying tickets , the troupe would be so ' much inoioin pocket. He blows and puffs a ( church free to any desired extent , and does the t poster printing at half rates , and merely gets ( a "thankyou" for St. It goes as partof his du ty as an editor. He does more work gratuit ously for the town and community than all the ' rest of the population put together , and gets curses Tor it all. while in many instances where a man donates a few dollars for tho 4th a Df July , a base ball club or a church , he is , gratefully remembered. He passes "free , " f rou know.

Mnn who never can read history , or if they read can not gft at the meat of it , see daily events and un derstand them. They take a look overy day at the sort of men wlfo bang round thu postofBces and other places held by the party in power. They read enough of the story of current events to know what sort of men h&ve been selected for important places of trust. They know that Garland is in the Cabinet and La mar on the Supreme bench. They know that appropriations are larger under this administration of sham economy than ever before. They know that the for eign interests and honor of the countty are being recklessly and madly risked in the trame of partisanship. They know that every .year the party in pow.er under the control of fanatical Southern free traders has threatened and disordered the industries of the whole Nation in itsdes perate efforts to overturn a system which has made the growth and prosperity of the United States the wonder of the world. Having seen Democracy tried they are disgusted. That is the mean ing of the returns thus far , and it is likeh to be the meaning of the returns in November. Cleveland's retaliatory message and his sudden conversion from a do-nothing to an active war platform reminds one of tln story of the man who was bitten by a rattlesnake The story in short is this : The old man Beaver and several grown-up sons lived in Pennsylvania. • The mother and wife was a good woman , and the pastor of the old country church had often labored with old Beaver and the boys without effect But one day a rattlesnake bit Bill and he was about to die , and they sent for the preacher in haste. Fie came , and , seeing the brok en , penitent family , he said : ' 'Let us pray , " and wwund up with the expres sion : "Oh Lord , we thank Thee for rattlesnakes. Send one to bite Tom , and one to bite Jim. and a big one to bite the old man , for nothing but rattle snakes will ever convert the Beaver family. " It was doubtless only a great emergency in Cleveland's life which in- luced his sudden conversion. Secretary ; Vilas let loose his vo- jabulary at Milwaukee , the other night vith astonishing results. Here is one ' ientence , seething hot from the power- ' ul brain of the secretary of the interior : 'Then it was that the monstrous vam- > ire hidden in the tariff which fanned • eductivoly with tho wings of protection he laborer whose heart's blood it sucks pas begotten in sin. to rob the toiling iroducers in the fields and forests of the vealth they created. * ' Mr. Vilas's ova- ory is strong and mellifluous , and his low or language is beautiful in the ex- reme , resembling very much that of the ite Daniel Pratt. " r It is folly nowadays to sneer at wom- n in politics. They are there already , nd will stn } ' . Whether or no the right f suffrage shall ever he given them , their i nfluence will always be a power in elec- ' ions , perhaps the s'ronger without the allot , because the more intelligent who ow labor are not interfered with by the neducated element of sisterhood. The \ ueens of the firesid" , the gentle comi i anions of home life and the mothers ' f American citizens are rightly inter- sted in elections upon which the dig- ity of citizenship isi stated. What will Iowa do for its vinegar nd pickles under Judge Ney ' s decision lat ' * a man must not make cider even J ) r his own family ? " Will he be per- litted still to suck the cider out of his pples after grinding them between bis C mlar and cuspids ? There is such a lingeven in this age as "straining at _ nats " But if Judge Nay's opinion is arranted by the laws it is time the w ware amended. Such laws are not temperance" laws , but intemperate. Vice Presidential Candidate nriOJAN says , ' 'an enormous surplus is le in the Treasury , doing nobody any tod. " The real facts are that the ad inistration has loaned to pet banks ithout interest $00.000 000. and this a larger amount than can be found in e Treasury when its obligations of the ical year are met. The old Roman is doubtless honest in his assertion , it he has not caught up with recent velonements.

Rockford { III. ) Register . „ . | j * Thc era of cumbrous blanket-sheets seems coming to an end , and newspapers like the A.t > Yak Sun and Tiik H Chicago Daily News are the prominent journalistic successes of the period. The papers that give enough reading matter * to fill a good volume in each daily issue arc going out of favor with many people who have some other employment lor M tlicir time than the search through mountains of straw for kernels of news. The sheets that give the news systematically j | and amply , and without unnecessary padding , are taking the lead in the great cities. " jl Forty years ago the chief duty of an editor , in view of his limited facilities , was to gather all the news he could and print it. Intelligence was transmitted slowly ; many occurrences of interest were never heard of beyond their immediate locality ; ocean mails were long in transit , and the overthrow of an European dynasty was not known here until long after the event. Suddenly there came a change. The railroad and the telegraph .superseded old methods , and the newspaper was literally flooded with news. The death of a petty ward politician in San Francisco , the result of a Presidential election , the accession of a sovereign , the outbreak of a war , and notice that a * shanty had been burden in Texas , all were hurried over the wires into the newspaper offices , and there being0J | \UUi/////.it \ / / challenges comparison with any in the lantl. ; g § no idea of discrimination , all were printed.

It has the n ; i t fM arose such journals as the New York Sun'nlMm age of its convictions. The org ; n < i ' " iM and The Chicago Daily News. That the public appreciated the new. departure is best evidenced in the fact that the Sun reached a circulation of 150 , - 000 a day , and The Daily News 175,000. The wonderful and constantly growing popularity of the condensed , low-priced papers has so far broughtthe cumbrous and high-priced blanket-sheets to their senses , that they have now somewhat reformed both as to size and price , but they are still too far removed from the true ideal of American jour nalism to meet the needs of the great majority. In the west The Chicago Daily News has been the first to appreciate and meet the situation , and it now enjoys the results of its twelve years of pioneer work , in a daily circulation averaging over three times that of any of its contemporaries , and 1 . ? I ft considerably more than the circulations of all other ; . II Chicago dailies combined. It is hardly necessary | to say that such a circulation could not be attained , f. ' much less maintained , except by a paper of high 4fcji ft grade of excellence , as well as one sold at a popu- 1 | lar price. To win such recognition the cheap jjl paper must be as good a newspaper as the best oi : yA of its higher-priced competitors. And this Tin : U Daily News certainly is. It is a member of the ' jw Associated Press , and is the only paper in Chicago ft which possesses a franchise which secures to it A both the day and night dispatches of the Associa- . . | i tion. In the general field of news-gathering it re- - M presents in the highest degree the progressive enter- PJ prise of American journalism : as a netus-papcr y tl no party , sect or interest , it voices the united tie- 7 ' . -jM mand of all those better elements of society in ' [ m behalf of purity , honesty and 'decency in all the relations of life. By just so much as it thus cons- ; , ' | | mends itself to the regard of the truly " best pen- ? pie" of the community docs it voluntarily re- . * * nounce any community of interest with all others. Im So conspiciotts a success must have its imi- lM tators , and The Daily News has the endorsement j such imitation always bestows.
