SUBJECT OF

Eight Kev. Bishop . Scad-r-
ding Speaks in Spokane,
; Before Episcopal Council,
on Press as a-Missionary
Agency. Z
. . "The Secular Pres as a Mission
ary Agency" was th subject ot an
address given' by the Eight Ret.
Charles Scadding, JJlflhop ot Oregon,
at the missionary ' council of the
eighth department of the Episcopal
church held in Spokane, Wasbw on
'Friday. April 30. He said, In part:
' TH ticcesful secular newspaper of
today may not b abova criticism from
a moral or religious standpoint, but it
cannot be denied that It stands close,
vrv dona to" tn oeoDie. No merchant
studies the community in which h
seeks patronage more closely than does
the newspaper publisher. There is ns
Dullness requiring Erea,iar i;v o
rrnter scale, nor is there anywhere a
mistake In Judgment attended with eon-
i sequences more disastrous to the bluo
; The newspaper Is a vast business
vntomrlae: a fortuna ia "invested in It
It must be made to pay dividends, and
to do thin it must have- the greatest
possible circulation, and to attain thiK
it must give the people what they want
to readL It la necessary for us to keep
this in mind, that the secular press is
first of all a commercial venture, in
tended to make money for the pro
prietor: that it sells news precisely as
ha merchant sells foods: that Its col
umns correspond to the shelves in adry
goods etore; that it can no more afford
to nut Into Its columns reading matter
which will not sell than can the mer
chant afford to put unsalable wares on
his .shelves.- - . -
- Sews Thoroughly BUted.
. It must also be borne in mind that
-the newspaper, even though It has
twenty-four pages, has not. a single line
to waste. It pays thousands of dollars
' for matters it does not print, and it
Is safe to say -that no newspaper uses
half the matter which is poured in upon
It by the press associations, its special
correspondent and the publlo generally.
The e-reat bulk of this news matter is
bonght and paid for, though never de
tained to see iayliBht.. not because it
is not news, but because matters which
the trained senses of the. editor pro-
nounce more important news crowd it
, Those same trained editorial senses
are constantly on the alert for the im
portant news Item, often carefully con
oealed in a mass of matter otherwise of
not the slightest Importance or Interest
to the reader, : just mention la tha midst
of three columns of really important
church reports the mere incldehtal fact
that Rev. John Doe sent in his resigna
tion: and that It was accepted, and be
prepared to turn out of bed at night and
- explain, to half a. doen reporters, all
. about the affair. , v
Th- next moraine tha Una of resigna
tion may appear as three columns, while
the three columns of reaHy Important
. church new will occupy scarcely more
than that many lines. The editor knew
- that only three lines' in your- article
would help, th sale of his paper,
reels ruolia Puis;
Now It can not be - argued that we
should - encourage sensational doings,
with the view of calling public attention
to our church and its wortt Even to a
salacious morsel the editor himself
would prefer a piece of news of an en-
i tlrely different character, but he has his
finger on the publie pulse, and he knows
what they require. In the use of news
paper space I am inclined to defer to
a editorial Judgment To me It ia a cer
tain Indication,... wen the . newspaper
shows disinclination to publish an arti
cle that the article will not be . read if
published. ,
Is it not a confession of weakness that
tna people uu u u i ncnmuu u
wish to give them? , If the newspapers
are largely what the people make them,
are not the people in almost the) same
proportion what the ehurcn atlowa them
to be? Is it not with the church, and
with -us of the clergy to attempt to cre
ate a demand for a different class pf
news, a demand. I believe, which will be
promptly met by the secular press T
' 1 We must admit that we cannot con
trol the secular press, and I believe that
in this advanced day few of us have
the inclination to do so. We are more
liberal than we were, and must not find
fault if the secular press is yet , more
liberal. . - - V
Work In Common Cause. J
" In the broadest sense we are working
:' with the newspapers In a common cause,
and they are doing their part nobly.
Some of them are fighting for a higher
standard ef publio morals, the purifica
tion of politics, the abolition of gamb
ling and other vices, the betterment of
men's morals and the closer brother
hood of roan. If they stop here and
leave us to continue the work of bring
ing men still closer to God, we must
admit that they are guiding their read
ers In he right direction, and we. if we
are not extremists, will recognise the
fact that they are our valuable allies.
But note the methods by which they
have achieved what measure of success
thiL Knt bv threats or denuncia
tion, by duress suggrstlve, do they f
swerve public sentiment but by a
flnewhe which point" a moral . without
seeming to do so. When the puhllc a

no necessity to .say anything'about "the

From a Staff Correspondent
Dublin, April 18.-It Is the general
opinion here, even among the castle peo
ple, that the coming installation of Lord
Granard, who married Beatrice Mills, as
knight of St. Patrick, 'Will not be ac
complished without some regrettable oc
currence. ?It will, be remembered that
Lord -Castletown's Installation in" the
same honor had to be postponed because
of the theft of the Irish crown Jowels,
and Lord Pirrle's Installation was boy
cotted by the other knights of the fa-
i.ortier.
with the honor td be bestowed upon Lord
Granard has really nothing to do with
the earl, : Personally, he Is extremely
popular not only among the people, but
among the aristocracy. The predictions
of unpleasant incidenta have their foun
dation In the clrcumstanoe that as jun
ior knight of the order Lord Plrrie will
take a prominent part in the Investiture.
The unpopularity of , Lord Plrrie- Is
due to the quite open and barefaced way
In which he is said to have bought his
decoration. Aside from the Order of the
Garter, that of St Patrick la the' highest
honor at the disposal of King Edward.
To an Irishman it undoubtedly takes
precedence over the Garter. . Of late
years there has been a tendency in blgh
places to dispose of this premier Irish
decoration for cash, and to this practice
the holders registered their opposition
by refusing to attend the Isvestlturs of 1
The price pnld by Lord Prrri,-whe is
the head of t lie great shipbuilding and
engineering firm of Harland and Wolff,
is said to have been the price of re
demption' of the Irish crown jewels,
which were held for-a. Urge sum. Al
though the fact is serai-offlclally denied,
they are now said to be safely, reposing
In the safe from which they were mys
teriously removed more han a yeae ago.
It Is freely reported that the agreement
between -the powers that be and Lord
Plrrie go even farther than the knight
hood of St Patrick, and .that; he has
been promised the first call on the Lord
Ueutenanancy -of Ireland , when Lord
Aberdeen retires, " ' -, - :-

In a small way I am carrying out in
Oregon a plan which I venture to rec
ommend to the Eight department. It is
a practical recognition of the great mis
sionary value of the secular press. I
have a list of all the managing editors
of the dailies and weeklies established
in the state, and when I have some
message to give, some definite teaching
which I wish widely circulated, -some
missionary information that ought te
get into the homes of many people who
do not attend service. I. write it as
briefly and directly as possible, break
in It un in an attractive readable man
ner and have some 75 advance proofs
made of It I then send one' copy-wito
a personal letter to all these managing
editors, asking them to give It. space
on a. certain date.
So far I have not been refused space.
and from- every town and village in
Oregon there goes forth to far away
homes on farms and ranches the mes
sage which I desire to give. It is
pleasure here and now to make publie
acknowledgment of the secular press ef
the state of Oregon as a missionary
agencv and to thank these many pa
pers ror tne courtesies l nave received.
It may bt well to remind ourselves
that there is such a thing as an overuse
of the secular press. . It Is a sad fact
that the churches sponge more free ad
vertising from the local press than
all other people combined are able to do.
I do not mean In notice, of church
service, but in gratuitous advertising
of churchly activities .that are Innocent
enough in themselves, but which, as
they are conducted solely from a pe
cuniary motive, have no more claim to
gratuitous notice than the business of
tne butcher ana baker.
