! THE GAGGED EDITOR jj
i 1 1 in in '
; : How JUs Live Issue Editoriftls Found an Early Grave;
:; in the Wastebasket Patriotism Stifled. ;
By Mrs. Bernle Babcock, Editor of the
Sketch Book, Little Rock, Aik.
(lii'ttil at the mwtlntf of the Arkan
Press association In Uttle ltock, May 3).
Full of breakfast ami comfortable in
his clothes, the editor Mt patriotic t
the core, and as he took his way to hi
oHIce his mind soared to altitudes un
known to empty stomachs and tight
boot.
He realised his importance as the
mouthpiece of a metropolitan Usily
with a live circulation ami, Wing very
much alive himself, was turning over in
his mind what live Unites he could han
dle editorially, whin bis train of
thought was violently Jarred.
Dreaming of a live iasue the editor
hud been rxin into by a live Issue which
had suddenly emerged from a doorway,
The second party to the collWion was
a bit of humanity In the shape of a
girl, who carried a pall of something
foamy. Her miniature face was pinched
and pale, ami the yellow hair that
framed it was frowsted and unkempt.
The eollllon brought her to a sud
den halt, ami, standing before the edit'
or, he raised a pinched little face, and
he saw a pair of blue ejes full of tears.
,"You made me spill It!" she ex
claimed, in a choking voire. "And now
I'll be beat again, and my lege are
pretty near pat going already."
The eilitwr forgot that the spilled
foam bad etwtled his freshly uhlned
patent leather. He looked from the
blue eves BUM with tears to the bare
little less, dark with bruises.
Then he glanced from the trembling
child to the door from which she nail
so sudenly come. Katurslty enough,
it wa a saloon, and other cbiUiren were
at the bat waiting their turn.
The editor looked down strain at the
mall girl. Tears were dripping over
her cheeka, and she was wiping them
awav with her dirty little hand.
Involuntarily hl hand went into his
pocket.
"Don't cry." he sail. "Here's half a
ilollas to get that beastly old father of
yours some more beer.
The child took the money but did not
smile. "I get beat anyhow," she said,
and then by way of explanation ad
ded: "If he don't get booe he beats
me 'cause he don't get It, and if he get's
it he beats me Vaue h does get It. It's
a beating anyhow. Some day I'm going
to Jump Into the river, f t can neat
me when then get me out if he want
to, but I won't know It." And she
turned and went Into the saloon.
The editor paused. He Ml his blood
an outrage. Here wa the live Issue In
American social life,
"Whv Isn't something being done to
stop this brutal poillm of child life?"
he qiieloned savagely of hlmelf.
"Why are not measures being tsken to
prevent our little girls from orimng
to the house of "lis me and our little
bovs to the felon's cell? What's the
matter with the church that It docs not
stir up an Influence that will stop this
wholeiwl. delmurhery of American
childhood t I know! The pulpit Is
afraid of the pew. There are too many
gagged miniters. Thank heaven for
the freedom of the press! Thank heav
en there' one that's not gagged! I'm
with Macaulay when he say. "The timed
is not jet come when eloquence is to
be ggRwl or renton hoodwinked.'
This enemy of society has outlived Its
day of tolerancee I shall deal with it
as an outlaw, and that without fear or
equivocation." Ami the editor felt his
blood boilinjf.to the effervescing point
and his "pine growing stiller than a
clrdcr in a steel skyscraper.
With the spirit of patriotism pushing
for cxprcfuion even- to hi finger' en-ls
the editor seated himelf at hi type
writer ind gave voice in the liveliest
poimlile expression to the live issue
which n free pre! was about to send out
to stir up trouble for the enemy of so
ciety. Half way through the first column he
was interrupted. It was the business
mnnnpinr, who wore ns miln the entire
width of his face nnd waive a paper as
vancc of 5 cents per inch."
"Have juit closed a year's contract
with the Eastern Lily Reer Company
for a full page twice a week at an ad
vance of Scents per Inch."
The editor Involuntarily liiirl his arm
across his live issue editorial.'
"They want a reader run on the edi
torial page, something bout a move
ment to reinstate the ifrmy canteen.
The movement originates with theSr
executive board but we're not reform
ers. T don't like to ak you to put junk
of this kind on the editorial page, but
it can't lie helped this time. Fix them
up 0. K."
It was not that he loved American
childhood less, but thnt he appelated
the business manager more, that deci
ded the editor to sulisMute this live Is
sue editorial for' another. His business
mnnaf?er wii.-t a good one. Ha did notl
want to lose him. He had already de
cided the matter, but emphasis was ad
(le to the decision by the appearance of
the Easter Lily magnate. As his jolly
face and diamond shirt button appeared
in the doorway the editor sneaked his
editorial gently down his side and
breathed a sigh of relief when It sank
into the lowest depths of the waste bas
ket. Again alone, lie paused to consider a
sctMid choice for a live Issue editorial.
"1 have It!" he ald. I'll write oue
under the heading of 'The Divoive Hab
it.' The home Is the foundation of so.
clety and the safeguard of the republic
Men ere courting other mens wives.
Women are substituting pug dogs for
bablos. The whule thing Is out of or
der. Divorce naturally lollonsi Home
are leliig broken up as fast as the big
cUaor of divorce court can clip the
marriage ties. I'll say to, I'lUapeak
without fear or favoritism.. Too many
public men are gagged on this subject.
Here goe" And he began at a lively
rate to dash off a second editorial.
Hardly had lie made a good beginning
when a second visitor was announced.
He was a very distinguished and com
manding percontige,
The editor re hastily and extended
his hand. "tiU4 to see you judge.
How can I serve you'"
Mut a little peronal matter the
unfortunate nature of nir familv af
fairs you know. Any publicity would
be painful and a well, you know.1
The editor glinoed at his title, ''The
Divorce Habit," end pushed a newspa
per over It. The judge s an Influen
tint fiiim-n ami a gooa friend and there
were buetne as well as personal wa
son for wl-hlng to retain this friend
ship. He was aurej (hat no reference
to his divorce prodding would be made
in the new column. This settled the
ecnnd live lue editorial. An editorial
would be construed as a personal
thrust, so another corpse was consigned
to the oHii grave of the waste basket.
Hut the Itrr. of pjUioll-m were by
no means extinguhheed. -
"Hy golly!" he exclaimed. "How did
I lmpHn to forget u boodlcrt? Here's
a live l-ue alright. I'll fix up an edl
toria! that will fairly slule the bunch
of hirelings that bettajed the public
trust Ish year men with no more eon
science than flea. I'll say so!" And,
suiting i he action to the word, he began
a third editorial.
At the close of the first paragraph
he came to a pause. His buslnet in ana
gi-r wanted to speak to him. He was
wearing no smile now, and there was a
tone of svag emphais in hi voice,
"I wish you'd give stwlal iron clad or
ders to the reporters at the legislature
to kcp their mouths shut, tverybody
knows the last gang of legUUtori was
a gang of boodlcrs, but we're not to
blame for that, and don t forget to shout
It through a megaphone, There'e a lot
of Inllut-niK here this vrar, and the last
one of t liii will vote sgjlmt the ap
propriation for newspaper If those two
reporters don't stop shooting off their
mouths. Don t forget."
The editor saw the point. He hastily
drew his editorial from the machine
and dropped its scarcely born remain In
to the wast basket,
"(ambling," he haid to himself,
"gimbllng here's ono of the livet of
all issues and for some reason the
chtm-h is afraid to tackle It in any
practical way. It's up to the prcsa.
I'll trim the whole bunch from the aris
tocrat who plays for a thousand In an
uptown club to the crsp shooer In the
alley. When everything else is gagged
It's time for the press to speak!"
H wu Interrupted In the middle of
his first paragraph by a lady who sud
denly stood before him with flushed
fnce.
"I am Mrs. Van Dooien De La Fay.
Am I In timet" she gasped.
"In time for what, Mr. Van Doogcn
oh, to get a story corrected In your
paper! I was so nfiflld I foiildn t get
here on time and ou would botch up
mv beautiful party and insult the smart
wt by puling something in something
like the other paper, only you couldn't
poiblv use audi shockingly bud tnte,
could you? You see, the prizes nt my
euchre party yesterday, were the Imml
soiiHMt you ever saw gold spoons In
satin lined cases, a pear 'iiceklai nn l
nil imported point luce fun, My Mirsl
were just cozy about them and playei'd
the. most exciting gome ypu ever beard
of, and two of tlie ladies got tip Had nnd
nearly fought over the spoon-. ' Hut
there was no use In putting that. In the
pnper. Don't you think it was horribly
discourteous for that other paper to re
port my party just as If Indies could be
guilty of gambling?" and she shook a
finger blazing with diamonds under his
ryes. "I intended to buy a hundred pa
pet's to send to friends In New York,"
she. continued. Instead of half a dozen
of us stopped our subscription and Mr,
Vim Doo.en De La Fay like the darling
he is, saj he won't gv them any more
advertising. Now, w want you to fix
it up. Tell about. my flowers, my Ices,
my beautiful prizes, and speak about
the excitement of the game, but ilcrfl't
even hint that the ladies gambled, will
you?'! And aguin the diamond studded
finger was pointed at him, nnd In the
glare of its blue light he wilted. It
would never do to have the Van Doozen
Do La Fay get down on his paper ,nd
Irate tody was assured that he would
try to exercise "good taste."
Her exit was marked by the slaughter
of another Innocent in the way of in
editorial, and an early grave was found
tit the yawning basket.
The editor paused. The flivs of pa
triotism alli ed burned. He must if U
liver himself of a live ! editorial, j
i...,-,il.,nall.,.i " Im indented "til..
wav It is beliiii dealt out by unscrupu
lous monev urabbers is a crime. Mdiiy
a tad has read of blood and murder and
all sorts of devllmcut until he baa turn
ed and say a few tlilna myself."
JM "d say a f willing myai(.-
More he tgan the buslnese mana
ger appeared.
"0. K. this bill, plea.," lie said. '.'It's
for that lot of bo car type we bought,
and It's Just In time to spring a tenae
tlonal story, We've got a woop that
wilt tell an extra edition." ,
"What I the eoopt"
"You know that scandal In high life
hinted at last week-three prominent
families Involved. We haven't the au
thority to make positive statement,
but we have enough to asy 'It Is report,
rd.'
"That Is rotten," the editor aid In
dl'gust.
"lUittsn! Yes. yellow as a spoiled
pumpkin. But the public waste that
kind and It's good bu'iuoes."
After the exit of the business mane
ger another live Issue was ttrangled
In Infancy and p"d to the unsatis
fied wastebasket tomb.
The editor paiced. What should he
write onf
Whit he considered he overheard the
.oflVe boy telling with bated breathiof
a tragedy. A child had just beea ritt.
down by an electrle car. v
Here wa material for a live Issle.
The street railway was running car
without fenders). "So maaslyt stingy
they wont spend a few dollar to pro
tect human life,' he said. "I'll call at
tendon to the fact. It'll scorch a Utile
but they need It those soulless corpor
ations that rake in the shekel by the
handful drop (hem Into their own Jean
pocket and kilt children. I'll fix thsml"
And he dashed off half a dosen scorch
ing tinea
He paused. The well known voice of
the business manage sounded,
"Don't forget (a order six fresh pass
books from the etreet car company
four renirtrs out to day."
The editor sighed, tore his paper from
his mschine and dropped It Into Ha
wicker grave, a here It settled for a long
test, '
The fire of patrlotlm had burned
out The remain of the live Issue ed
itorials were burled a dn deep under
the weight of their own dead selves,
and over their lifeless remains no ttar
of hope arose.
"Copy, copy I Your'e holding up the
first form I" somebody shouted.
The editor Jumd. He was guilty,
"Here, you young monkey, he shout
ed at the ofilre boy, "band me the paste
pot snd sclsslret fttep lively, now, or
I'll skin you alive!"
He then dived savagely 'n, hush
el basket of foreign exchangee, and flf
ten minute later the editorial were
on the llneotype,
