T can’t Parliamentary bodies wefre long a great stronghold o f resistance to the press. Reporters were strictly barred from them, and reports o f their proceedings were sternly pun ished. It was among tbe triumphs for the right and for com m on sense which Franklin achieved that he caused the chamber o f the provin cial assembly o f Pennsylvania to be thrown open to publicity. Never theless no reports were allowed o f either tbe Continental congress or the constitutional convention. Dr. Johnson’s violation o f the cherished privacy o f the British house o f commons is a classic story. He reported its debates without en tering its sacred precincts, and in order to escape the severe penalties o f the law he reported them without m entioning the body or any o f its members by name. Setting up an imaginary “ senate o f Lilliput” and giving ficitious names to the lead ing members o f parliament, he edi fied fo r year tbe readers o f the jou r nal which then boasted tbe “ largest circulation” in England. Receiving ■ few scanty notes o f B a r c r o f t ’ s D r u g S t o r e what was going on at Westminster, Next Door to Pootoffico he elaborated them into s brilliant spread. H e was, indeed, tbe illus trious founder o f the im m ortal craft o f rewriters. His discerning read ers came to know not only that tbe C o W a K IJ B N L B senate o f Lilliput was the house o f / PROFESSIONAL commons» but that “ B lefscu” stood for France and “ M ildendo” fo r Lon don ; that “ sprugs” meant pounds; that “ Nardac” was the Duke o f > Kienle A Sons, 504 First St. : Newcastle, and so on.
