THE BIG PAPERS.
It is surprising to note the differ
ence in the style of the newspapers of
today from that of a few years ago. : can draw y for that length of time.
The papers have grown steadily ' But lne question comes up as
larger, until the limit has certainly to Aether the senate will stand it.
"been reached in that direction, and Tliat bo1v j, yCCn jn seion twenty,
the next change will perhaps be in tsvo tiavj. it can only draw pay for
the line of a decrease lather than a eighteen more. Now if the legisla
further increase. The editorial style j tu""re 5i10uld organize today, the house
is also different. Instead of the couic raw pay for tbirty-tivc days,
long dissertation on an v given sub-: while the senate could only be paid
ject, one or more -paragraphs"' are for eighteen. Neither house can ad
used, and 'he long-winded arguments ' journ without the other, hence the
are left to the magazines. The boil-lSenate would have to sit out its time:
ing down of editorials is undoubtedly but lt might yet get even by refus-.
a good thing, and could it be folding to pass any bills. Then comes
lowed by a boiling down of other j another proposition. The senate is
Teading matter, it would be a further ' tuiy am legally organized. Under
improvement. Instead, however. the constitution it cannot adjourn 1
what is saved m editorial expression , finally without the consent of the
is more than counter balanced by the house, and as there is no house, the
minute detail of scandal and crime, query is, can it adjourn at all?
The Nicaragua canal is disposed of
in a ten-line paragraph, and the com
ing fight between a couple of prize
fighters takes two columns. It is so
in all other lines, and the big dailies
Lave taken to padding out their dis-
patches until it takes a reader hours
to wade through what could be put
in shape to be absorbed in ten or
twenty miuutes.
If the Loud bill would go further
and raise the price of postage on
newspapers, it might not be alto
gether bad. If it served to reduce !
the size of the blanket sheets, itj
would benefit the reading public,
and curtail the expenses of the postal !
