The duty of the press is to the people. Its business is to prefect them from betrayal. Its purpose is to inform the people , tech them , instruct them , arouse them. Ets power comes from the people. Its influence is due to the trus of the people. 1 } The faith is not misplaced. $ en of great power and greater $ an- fluence , whose voices : h'iv&:8een : heard throughout the land , have been silenced by bribes. Poli ticians have prostituted their yo ? cation for money. , Statesmen jhave sold the rights-of the people for pieces of : sliver. ; - IKe. [ " * : tiigh and mighty have betrayed the public while they caressed it with a kiss : But .the people have come-to know that money will not buy the editorial pen of and honest editor and cannot purchase the opinion of an honest newspaper. Men who would not hesitate to offer- bribes to congressmen and sena tors would never contemplate for a moment the proffer of a bribe t6 a newspaper. Proof of this is to be found in the records. Journal ism has been clean ; throughout its long history its name is unsmirch : ed. Clouds of suspicion have hoy-1 ered above the mightiest places in ; the land , but they have not lowers ed over the public press. ! In a word , an honest newspaper is a public asset. The pooplican ? depend upon , it and lean upon it. , As long as its voice prevails , hon esty will exist. Dishonest and dis honorable men and women , too fear its power and dread its pub- ! licity. It stands for right and jus- : tice for ALL the people. Indian- ' apolis Sentinel. How ridiculously untrue are the' above statements that newspapers are never proffered bribes and that "journalism has been clean ; throughout its long' history" its name is unsmirched , " and "clouds of suspicion have hovered above the mightiest places in the land , but they have not lowered over the public press. " How about the railroad ready-made editorials and the numerous colorings of articles in our ready prints to suit the monopolies and capitalists. The subsidizing of the press , the buy ing up of newspapers for the pur pose of holding or changing public opinion , the colorings given to letters upon the stock exchange to influence speculation and. swerve prices to suit the manipulators , the apologies for conditions in the money market and thecareful statement prepared in the Bartley caso by the republican managers for the people to look at-rall these and perhaps in half the articles you see in editorial defense , there is a motive. Yes , we reiterate'the statement , "proof of this is to be found in the records. " The words "honest editor" and "honest news- pa per" changes the article and places a different construction up on the article.
