MONDAY, JULY 8, 1017. N EWSPAI'EIl A NNOYA.NOE8. Here Ib something you might stick In your hatband: "If I owned a news paper, what I would Bay in it Just now would be a plenty." remarked a man the other day, to The News editor. He was invited to write whu: ha wanted to say, with assurance that It would be printed if his signature accompanied it. Ho very promptly declined the ton- der. remarking that "it would nun his buslneM." There are a lut of people willing, anxious In fact for things tq be said In the newspapers provided they hurt the business of somebody else and not their own. What newspaper has not had this very same exporlenco with this very name yellow tadpole of tv citizen who splutters and' splutters about what ought to be printed in a news naner and what ought to be omitted? And yot when you invito the indi vidual to bo responsible for the manuscrlDt ho wants you to publish he whines like a sick dog, Bkulks behind this pretext and that, and wobblos out of the office with a grouch. i That is not all. He writes in that he will stop Mb papor if you don't print what he himself won't sign. Yot if you were to suggest to bint that his threat to stop his papor Is pure and slmplo coercion through a threat of blackmail ho would howl like a tomcat with Its tail stopped on. The follow who threatens to Btop hlB paper Ib trying to do to the newspaper In a small way the very thing that he would condemn as criminal In a corporation that tried in any way to throttle the freedom of the press. Threatening to stop the paper Ib an attempt at intimidation. ' But It Is worso than that. Threat ening to stop the paper Ib a confes sion of bigoted Intolerance on the part of the delinquent suliBciibor that "pullB such . a bone," for it means that ho does not want the pnp er to have the courngo of Its own convlctlonB after all, but Insists that It shall hnve only one . courage of the convictions of the stop-my-papor threatener. . , Big magazines with circulation piling toward tho million anS great metropolitan newspapers are pester ed with this pest who wants them to publish something and assume a re sponsibility for authorship which tho pest is too big a coward to nsnume, and who threatens to slop IiIb sub scription if they do not do his bid ding. Why do newspapers have theso annoyanccB? .Well, why do.-hotols Bometlnies have bedbugs, and hen houses huvo llco? , ISN'T THIS NICK? , Otto Flabo writing in the Vosslrho Zoltung, of Roilln, thus gives to bin renders' a sumtuury of tho American character : "Perhaps in this war of surprises, none have hood mora jlsaKreouhlc thun those caused by tho treacherous altitude of Amorlcn. "The principal reason Is that the average German knows . Uttlo pr nothing about America and Ameri cans, 1, who havo sojourned over yonder, nnd havo had ample experi ence of tho Yankee character, could not posBlhly havo boen surprised at any Judas-llko action on the part of that nation or Ita oftlclnl represen tatives. "In America a prison warden who had kicked to death a prisoner caught attempting to CHcape, obtain ed from a Judge permission to em balm the man's corpse and to tour the country with tlio mummy at a Jack Tar Newest Models Now Ready!

"In America the swindler and the cheat Is n hero. "As -regards American women, I would have them neither as sweet hearts nor wives. Of passion or of roi.iantic love they are Incapable. Ra pacity .and willfulness are the key notes to their character. "Amorlca" Invented - the gramo phone, the art of advertising railway disaster, the monster circus, pickled pork, the science of a scandalous newspaper reporting audacity, and tho big "department store , "Even her loudly advertised (5m tlstry and her ubiquitous telephone system are merely necessary evils. As a friend America is uncertain, as an enemy, contemptible." . - - An occasional misapprehension of the Red Cross system that is caus ing criticism is quite unfounded. These crltica say that the Kcd Cross Is a single world-wide organisation, aa well as a movement lor world wide relief. The Rod Cross In fact Is national, and tho policy for the disposition of the money that haB Just been raised in this country will be determined entirely by the Ameri can Red Cross Society. It has been reported that the money now to be used In rollef work would go equally to the Germans as well as to other, belligerents. This, of course, IB .not true. If any of this money Ib used, for the relief , of German victims ol the war, it will be because the dl-, rectors of the Amerlpan Red CroBB Society of which President Woodrow WllBon Ib the head, has decided to give It for that purpose. This might happen In certain Individual cases, but certainly not enough to count. Each nation has Its own Red Cross, or similar activity. Naturally, tho American Red Cross will uae its war fund for the relief of the suftur-rs among American troops and those of tho allies. . The editors of the country are playing fair with the government, Dospito tho fact there is no censor if tho press of any consequence, the newspapers are studiously refraining from the publication of war news that might Interfere with the work of tne war department. General Porshlng turns up In England to the surprise of the nation at home, who had an idea that he was loafing around Washington. A fleet of sub marine chasers appears suddenly in British waters, and a Yankee army unsworn to a breakfast call In France tho other morning to the amaze ment of the American people, who read a half dozen newspapers every day. Sclf-lmposcd censor, based on loyalty. DOG LAW STARTED Constable H. II.
