Why Be a Skeptic? Greenville Piedmont. Editor DeCam.p of the Gaffney Led ger, evidently being in a irame o mind that all newspaper men, higl or low, good or bad, editor or report er, ..ave often found themselves, re lieves his mind, by placing in th | editorial columns of the Gaffney Led | ger, an article by DeWitt Talmage ii j which the latter explains why so man; ; editors are skeptics. The article iJ ! question is as follows: . "One of the greatest trials of.tn : . newspaper profession is that its mem ! bers are compelled to see more o the shame cf the vorld tean in an; other profession. Through ever: newspaper office, day after day, al | the wickedness of the world, churcl | bickerings, and all the mistakes tha I want to be corrected, all the dul speakers that want to be thougiir eloquent, all the meanness tha wants to get its wares noticed gratii in the eiit'orial columns in order U save the tax of advertising columns all the cracked brain philosopher: whose stories are as long as thei; hair and as gloomy as their finge; nails in mourning because bereft o all soap, all the bores who come t( stay a few minutes but stay 'hours Through all the editorial and repor torial rooms all the follies and shain< of the world are seen day by da] and the temptation is to believ< neither God, nor man, nor woman It. is no surprise to tell me that ii this profession there are so man] skeptical men. I only -wonder tna journalists believe anything." ).Ve can sympathize to a grea extent with t':e point of view of ou esteemed contemporary; for of al the places in the world where a mai j comes into contact with the mean low, spiteful qualities inherent ii many a human breast the newspape office is the place. It is not alon through tii# aew? columns mat . ! man at tie desk has to read of al ! the wickedness that takes place. Th< ! members of the staff of a newspape I haivp tn listen to the comDlaints 0 j some disgruntled person whom noth j ing seems to please. When a mai has been in the pro ession for a tim he learns to hear these complaint without any comment, yet teey leavi j their impress upon him in the wa; | that Talmage so well explains in hi; j article.
