The Spartanburg Journal recent
ly published the following edltojf.il
on the subject of "Newspaper He
aponrtiblllty."
"The local newspaper is the
window through which humanity
vie wb the community. Tho out
aldor baa no other meana of forming
an estimate and the home consumer,
constantly reading the stories of
the town, unconsciously takes bin
?iewH of the Burrouudings largely!
from what be roads about his neigh
bors day after day.
"The honest newspaper is obliged
to i.?rint all the news tlmt in legi
mate, but in tho prominence given
an iluitli 1" the recital of detailw,
there in a way of making tho sheet
wholesome and hopeful or yellow
and severe.
"Howevor virtuous tt community
may he, hnwever alive to the great ln
tereHtH of progress and development
along right lines, all have a seamy
aide. To exploit wrongdoings ac
great sensations, la the first im
pulse of the neophyte. He ha*
imbibed the idea that becauso there
is in every community a class who
delights to delve in the slituo and
impurities of the poliue court, that
tliems should bo catered to and the
"hot, ntories" with the scare beady,
/give n the place of prominence. The
paper that desires such matter can
alnnVf* tind it. Th? reporter wh
