The ChicaKo new,pa,.rs have a j
unlte.1 In a common are'inem that on j
and kftcr the 1st of February next they
will entirely discontinue tne use oi ,

Whon chromo Journalism rtrt in-
troxluctnl It tlouMIess pave toiPixvrary a,l- j
to th Tww5pajxrs w hich cri
nnl the dignity and iiKllvUluality of j
Journalism to clap-trap ilevirvs for the ;
multiplication of reader, but the increase j
In readers was almost wholly from a;
I
cUm that did not value the newspaper.
but purchastfsl It without reanl to It ;
merits because they could thereby oh- j
...iaw . .w. n(.tiir h-.n -ni-M he had f
in any othfr way. It was found also
out by those who expended more than
their entire profits for a time to Increase j
rirrulation. that whenever they reaped !
tho chromo feature of Journniism. they
lost the subscribers th?y hai pained ly i
such methols. I
Another consideration that was doubt-j
less com roiling in ueviui uie vintnAu,
t.ewpaH'rs to entirely aUan-lon chromo ;
Journalism was that when one made a;
tmonirv tucevsa of Rift plcfiroa others ;
followwl. and therefore none received!
... ,
special advantage from It. The Chicago
publisher, some of whom have txpended .
as much as tiCiM in clotures for a flncle
lssue of their Sunday ediiijn, I'nally j
awakened to the fact that they were j
paying for free picture nearly Jw-V-.1 a '
year, and without any subs'.amhil com-1
pensation. Competition In making a
complete newspaper was subordinated to :
competition in producing the '0ost attrac-1
tlve and necessarily the most expensive .
free chromos to be given to purchasers. I
and they have had the rood sense to I
confess not only the financial failure of j
the scheme but the degradation of Jour-;
nallsm, by uniting In the purpose to i
abandon chromo journalism enilrely.
The only Journalism that can stand the .
test of time Is that which maintains Its 1
own dignity by aiming to present the
m.- oitraiKo .ni-i.inin.. indi-in.iit.. i
and healthy newspaper to th? res-ling
public. Those who read a newspaper be
cause It deserves to be reaJ will not only
not be attracted to it by chromo journal
ism, but the more intelligent class of
newspaper rei-J.-i-s logically assume that
the public Journals which descend to such !
. , , , , i
clap-trap devices to obtain readers, sac-
tlce the merits of Journalism by catering I
to those who place no value upon leglti- I
mate newspars.rs and w ho w ill cease to i
be purchasers wh-?n..ver the chromo feat-
ure is abandoned. Joirnaiism is the
highest known profession in o'.ir free gov-!
eminent, where newspapers enter nearly
every home and ore the f-eit educators
of the people, and it can command public ;

The situation In Turkey bears a more I
satisfactory aspect than It did a week-
ago. This is due to the fact that Oireat '
Hrltnin and Russia have npoarontly come
i
to an understanding with regard to their I
mutual relations in the Or'ent. Kngiand
would have never Ixen nbl-? to secure
c-i,i ,k ,- . . ,-,,,i
from China the ast terntonal 'r-
slons along the Burmah frontier, men-
tioned In our London dispatches of today,
without the goodwill of Russia, who Is
, ,, , ,, .
all-powerful at I'eking. while, on the
other hand, the Muscovite chancellor,
Prince Lo'ianofr, is reported to have oh-
tulned the apjiroval of the Kngli-h gov
ernment to a scheme for the mill'ary oc
cupation by the czir of tiie dlsturtied
Turkish provinces In Asia Minor. The
project provides for the co-op ration c-r sihtly or rerlously Impaired, the value ; SPXt(F. cr p year, and then s'a'e

and meets with the approval of English
Conservatives and Liberals alike, who
see therein the only possible solutiin to
a difficulty that has been pernlftcd to
degenerate Into an International disgrace
and a blot upon European virilization. '

It Is Interesting to ki.ow that Secreiary
Carlisle, who has been superlnton ling the I
finances of the country for the past two1
. , , , . ;
years and a half with such rare ski I und .
intelligence, says unhesitailniy that the 1
present condition is not due to a de
ficiency in ihe government revenues,
but Is the result of past financial bglsla- ,
tlon. "That's going a good way luck,"
as the man said about the cx-iall soup. '
It recalls the explanation of the oruiilun ,
sea captain, who, when his ship was !
bumping on the rocks, said in answer j
to the suggestion of a passenger that the ,
navigators seemed to have erred in their
reckoning: "Bless you, no! We've xt. or-!
ed her all right, but she .vas hoodooxi I
