MAKING NEWSPAPER MEN.
What, Indeed, Is true civiliza
tion? Uy Its fruit you shall
know It. It Is not dominion,
wealth, material luxury nay,
not oven a great literature and
education widespread. good
though these things be. Civili
zation is not a vaneer; ft must
penetrate to tho very heart and
core of societies of men. Its
true signs are thought for tho
poor and suffering, chivalrous
regard and respect for women,
the frank recognition of human
brotherhood irrespective of
race or color or nation or relig
ion; the narrowing of the do
main of mere force as a gov
erning factor in the world, the
lovo of ordered freedom, abhor
rence of what is mean and cruel
anil vile, ceaseless devotion to
the claims of justice. Civilization
in that, its true, its highest
sense, must make for Peace.

CRUELTY IN FRENCH CONVENT.
Pendleton should Join heartily In
the coming celebration of Labor Day,
on September 7. The workingmen
are giving time and money to the ar
rangement of the program, and by the
generous aid being received from the
business men, they will make an ex
cellent showing.
It Is a day which cau be celebrated
with good grace In tho city of Pendle
ton this year. Perhaps no season in
the history of tho city has found as
many busy people as this year. Every
man who has been able to work, has
been hard at It. The trades are all
nourishing and wages aic good. The
workingmen are becoming more and
more permanent fixtures in the city.
They are buying and beautifying
homes year by year. They are taking
part in public affairs more than ever,
and by tneir contented and progres
sive spirit, they are adding a refresh
ing touch to the life of the city.
Nothing else Induces tho establish
ment of new industries as much as the
class of workingmen to be found In a
locality.
If they are settled In homos, con
tented with their surroundings, cap
ital does not hesitate to invest and de
pend upon such a class of people for
help. If they are prosperous and havo
their earnings Invested in tho com
munity, it places the Industrial life of
the city upon a Arm basis.
This condition Is to bo found in Pen
dleton. Perhaps In no other town of
the same population In Oregon, are
there so many homo-owning working
men. The wages paid to employes
Ueg) is Invested largely In property,
and tho Institutions employing any
number of men greatly prefer this
class of laborers. They can be de
pended upon. Tho employer knows
that lilh industry is safe In the hands
of tho home-building, contented men.
Tho citizens of Pendleton can do no
moro worthy deed than to encourage
thoso men, in celebrating tho one
seclal day in tho year, set aside for
their especial benefit and enjoyment.
It will give the employe a new hopo
for tho future and an Invigorating
zeal In his work, thereafter. He will
feel that tho community expects him
to take charge of tho day, and con
vert It Into the best possible use.
Tho Fourth of July celebration was
abandoned out of respect for a strick
en sister. Since that time, a busy
season, a good harvest and a fortu-l
nato period of prosperity for al trades
and callings has passed. No moro
fitting close for tho summer could bo
coneolved, than a hearty celebration
of Labor Day.
It Is symbolical of the reward for
Most of tlie nowspapor men doing
duty In tho ordinary country and
small city dally and weekly offices,
"Ju.-U dropped Into the business."
Nino nut of ion of them accepted
a newspaper position ns a last resort.
They have tried other occupations,
with varying success. They caught
tho fascination, and are now trying
to catch the salary. They entered the
business In a largo number of cases,
without special training for tho duties.
They looked upon editing n paper as
a sort of diversion, with no great re
sponsibility and many pleasant licen
ses.
This being tho case, as It undoubt
edly is. It Is no wonder so many fail
ed, and Hooded the country with pro
fessional centaurs men who have the
semblance of a Journalist without the
natural ability or the ptopor training.
There Is no object in society more
pitiable, than tills class of "newspa
per men," who are not able to keep
up with the progtoss of an occupation
they have half followed, and are yet
too old to enter n now vocation. They
aro as helpless as children. They
are drifting from place to place, liud-
Ing at every turn that younger men,
with moro training, later and more
progressive views and changed ac
complishments, aro in the positions
so lung held by the unprofessional
veterans.
The newspaper business Is an un
folding process. In no other protes-1
sion Is the developing tendency of so
ciety fco quickly felt. It responds to
tho hunger of the masses for changed
Ideals and now facts. It yields moro
readily to the pressure of progress,
than any other calling, for It is tho
mirror ot public sentiment.
In endowing a department of jour
nalism in Columbia University, for
the education of newspaper men, in
the practical and technical details of
the profession, Joseph Pulitzer, of the
New York World, says:
"In every other pursuit, where men
are under an equal mural responsi
bility to the public for tho proper
discharge of their duties, they aro
prepared for Ihoso duties by years of
careful and conscientious study, but
the newspaper men, who are In many
directions tho Informers and teachers
of the people, the exponents, and to
a degree, the makers of the public
opinion which rules communities ami
governs states and the nation, have
hitherto received no special prepara
tion for thoir delicate and important i
duties.
"At the time of the last census
there were in tho United States 141,
30U lawyers and 30,988 persons class
ed as journalists. Tho legal profes-;
sion was provided with trained re
cruits by 100 law schools with 1.10G
professors. For a fair proportion,
there should havo been at least 20
colleges of Journalists, with facul
ties 291 strong. There Is not one.
Not a single one of tho 30,938 news
paper men and women In tho country
bad enjoyed what a lawyer would call
a systematic professional training." j

nobody good," has been proved con
clusively again, by a Hutter Creok

which devastated his garden and

It appears that the wretched In
mates had to work for 10 hours out

work was continued Indefinitely. If
tho girls exhibited symptoms of col
lapse they were put in atrnlght jack

lious, as not a few of them did, they
were shut up In a damp cellar until
they were tamed. Two stout lay sis
ters administered castlgatlon with
knotted whipcord, when stronger
measures were deemed advisable.
One form of punishment compelled
the offender to crawl on her knees
around tho main hall and make the
sign of tho doss with her tongue on
tho dirty floor nt tho feet of each of

penalties aro quite indescribable. Tho

NO COLIC IN FOLK'S FACE.
There is no cramp colic In Joseph
W. Folk's face. There Is no pseudo
solemnity in his countenance. There
Is no need of a theatrical severity in
ills manner to atone for a lack of
honest purpose and sincerity. He
does not Mud It expedient to resort to
the cheap tricks of a thlid-rate elocu
tionist to make himself Impressive.
There Is about him none of the airs
of a peanut tragedian.
The Jefferson Ilrick style of oratory
is quite lacking in the famous St.
Louis prosecutor. Ho doesn't carry
his sentences and bis apostrophes up
to a nasal nuavcr and then cut them
short with a strident snarl. None of
these execrable though fashionable
affectations are practiced by .Mr.
Folk and none of them would suit
him, since they are nil thoroughly
sophistical and meretricious. There Is
enough good, manly llbro In Prosecu
tor Folk to enable him to prevail with
the public without any of tho detesta
ble veneer with which certain so
called orators In .Missouri plaster
themselves, nnd with which more's
tho pity they have succeeded In tool
ing the people.
Let Joseph Folk be thanked not
less for the introduction of a natural,
convincing and straightforward stylo
of public speaking, in contrast to tho
miserable Imitations of eloquence
which he has made odious, than for
his work in clearing out tho boodlers
in Missouri. Kansas City Star.
