Kditor Ilecaroe a Merchant.
* Editors and publishers who do not
have success in convincing their local
merchants of the value of newspaper
advertising ax an accelerator of trade
arc interested in the record of the
editor of the Linn Creek (Mo,) Reveil
le. who grew tired of having the mer
chants tell him that advertising would
do them no good, and therefore added
to his printing establishment a well
selected stock of* general merchandise.
He commenced advertising his own
merchandise, and now is the leading
shoe dealer, the leading dry goods
merchant and leading general store
proprietor in hifo town.
He not only proved that advertising
would pay but that there was more
money in the mercantile than in the
newspaper business, and has announc
ed that he will dispose of his news
-paper property to the first buyer who
will run it on progressive lines, and
devote himself to taking care of- thc_
mercantile trade that his advertising
has developed. -Publishers Auxiliary.
The Case of Judge Simm.v
Special J udge Sim ms mav not be
guilty of drunkenness on and ott the
binch, as charged by the Anderson
county grand jury* but he made u
monumental on
holding court after the charge had
been mad*; | He ahof
jout nod the court and demanded a full
investigation. Then, if his innocence
had been proven, his vindication would
have been full and complete and he
would not have suffered in public es
teem. As the matter stands, no mat
ter how much he and his associ^cs
on the joy ride may protest, there jyill
always bo at least an element of
| doubt us to his guilt or innocence.
People will naturally assume that.u
grand jury would not have made such
a grave charge without being reason
ably sure of its ground.
Judge Simms not only went ahead!
ami hold court after the grand jury
had formally charged him with iiW
toxication, but he tojd the grand jury
that it had no right to make such a
charge, as the grand jury had already
boon discharged for the term of court.
We have not examined the law,, but
this is a preposterous position for ?'
judge to take. The grand jury is, or
should bo, in session all the time, and
it is, or should be, within the power
of the foreman to summon that body
to assemble whenever occasion might
demand it. Judge Simms' whole at
titude in the matter has not been of a
character to command public confi
dence. II is proper course was to ad
journ the court and demand a full and
complete investigation.
Governor McLeod and Chief Justice
Gary both sidestepped the request for
Judge Simms' removal. It is ti-ue
that no case of the kind has ever
arisen before, and there may be no
law to cover Just such a case, <>ut ap
pointing power can always remove or i
su?pend an appointee, and it is a.- pity |
that there did not exist, somewhere, a :
proper sense of the proprieties which]
woii'd have made it impossible fnv j
Judge Simms to continue to hold court j
while under such a severe charge. ? j.
