"THI8 IS SDOOESTIVE."

Tbe Star, the organ of tbe Swallowtail Democracy, apparently ie uol ealiaiitvcj with Congressman Brookshire's distribution of the official patronage in ibis county and particularly the disposition of the Crawfordsville poetoffice. Th» following discloses its state of mind, whrjb is "suggestive":

Mr. ML-UUII, ivilh great merriment, yrinted .-"something ou Wednesday that marks his delnrht, His paper 011 that day *aM:

The aiipolutment of Ed Vorls as postmaster •at tills city, while it Is in every respect a good selection and will prove emlnentlj satisfactory to the Kepuli'icans, does not meet with the approval of the Democratic workers—the men who run the politics of the county. And so it .will be all over the district. Mr. Hrookslilre will learn ere another campaign Is over that patronage Is more 01 a boomerang trau a .booster.

We are ine.vprts.sib shocked. The parting of the umblllical cord has been so sharp that '•nty personal friends" ha\e not yet got their breath.

Thrown out in the world, so cold and so cruel, tlicv know riot which way to turn. We are sorry to see Mr. McCain give the trusting hearts such a cruel awnkeniusr.

Surely he wiii not deny having '-advocated and recommended many appointments so far made In this county. We most certainly Insist .. that the Democratic parly, as a party./washe* its humls of all responsibility in some of them.

Tile situation Is touching Indeed.

THE words of Gen. Harrison uttered feo luc.iHca ilny at the Fair, should go down deep into the hearts of all true American citizens. He said: "I am ptirsuaded that it nstds 10 be impressed again aDd ogain upon onr people, that all this that ie ebown here,. all social order, all domestic happiness, 'and alt constitutional and legal institutions are dependent upon the acceptance by all

Iho people of tbe principle obed:eoce to the kisv. I know of nothing to-day that so much shames up as a cation as these fiendish, barbariouB, devilish lynchinge that have occurred throughout the Stales of our land."

COL. CARROLL 1). WWGHT, tlnited States Commiseiouer of Labor, writes in the Outoljer Forum that whenever prices ot commodities rise higher relatively thiio does the price of labor, and that wiieuever prices go down they go down much lower relatively than the price of labor, which remains ordinarily very nearly at its inflated rate.

Higrh School Graduate's Idea of a Journalist's Worries. 5

Tht Manifold liutlfi and the Varied Rq* qulrementa of the Man Who 1 Willi* _a.

Taper XJho Struggl*',. for Glory.

At ah EiiglisTi~lijjrK"sclio61" gfadtttv." tion exercises in Hoston the other day, the following essay was read by William II. IUatt, age.il seventeen:, "The Trials of a Journalist. A presumptuous title this, I know, but I liave two nrg-uments to offer in my defense. In the tirst place, a couuection for several months with a paper of sufficient circulation to maintain life g-ivesme authority to speak, and secondly, I am a livuifr illustration of my subject, for in me you behold the supreme trial of all journalists the individual who thinks he knows it all, and is willing to impact his information at the slightest provocation. Not that liis counsels' are valueless. With the proper conditions any one of them would lead, a paper to success, but -those -comlrtricms are an editor with twenty-five. m.illiQn dollars..and a patieht and enrhusia.stic public. Having' noticed one of the qualities needed by an editor to endure his trials, .let me consider a Jew other requirements of the man whom the general public pictures as a person whose chief duties are to wield tbe scissors and the paste brush, wear out an oflice chair behind a door inscribed: "This is my busy day," and hurl pitper weights and curses at the printer's devil, while his only trial is to listen to the perpetrations of spring' poets. In brief, the editor of 3 struggling paper (for that individual being the martyr of journalism I shall take him as its representor tive) must be a printer, proof reader, author, critic, politician, diplomat, business man, hustler, scholar, encyclopedia and—but this will do for a suggestion. Don't believe it? Let me particularize. "As a printer he must be able to examine the proofs and see if the wily typesetter has not double leaded the matter or measured the type with a: too generous rule, and he must see that the paper is produced in an artistic form: as a \vriter be'turns out those jewels of eloquence and intellectknown as editorials as a diplomat he must devise measures to lift his paper into popularity and keep it propped up and of course lie must be a careful critic, separating the grain from the chaff of literary work. Ue understands the. art of statesmanship, forthe people expect him to untie the gordian knot of politics for theiii and he must have an enormous bump of agressiveness, for -who but lie must champion the people's cause? As a proof reader he reviews his paper, containing from thirty-five thousand to one hundied and sixty thousand, words, from begiuning to end, looking for the smallest errors, and proof reading' as those who have tried Hlvnow, requires more endurance than the geometry tests from which we are about to escape. "But I pause here, for this list lias already assumed soporific proportions.

To stun up, the editor must have money, experience,, influence and brains, the meekness of Mose% the patience of Job and the energy of a dynamo, and when he has done his best he must bear the blame for the false reports and bad English of his reportera. The mere mention-of these qualities is bad enough. But in order to appreciate them fully it is necessary for us to see them in action in tlie editor's sanctum, not the private office of a journalistic magnate, who can avail hiaoself of the equivalency of time and money, but that of the editor of a'_ paper tyith patent insid.es and a. circulation of about fifty copies a week, counting exchanges. ."The life of such an unfortunate is along and_jex.qiusi.ti -torture of bills, complaints, refusals, book agents spring poepis, indignant citizens, and accidents, resulting .in a perpetual headache, a rebellious digestion .and an intimate acquaintance, with the demon of insomnia. And, the. product of all the pain and trouble is only newspaper—a worthless ..thing -that lives for a day, like a Mayfly, and then is lost and forgotten, leaying to its. author no fame, no reward but .the price it sells for and what sum of mofloy, how ever large, is a just recompense for art! Poor unappreciated thingj Who when he reads it will think of., the .trials that were necessary.to bring it.out? Here's the news of a great fire. :Who stops to think that the maji who wrote that article braved danger and death to serve the public? Here's an article by the funny, m^n, Would you laugh so loudly if you knew that the man who wrote that article was gjyen a little more space this .week so that he might earn more money to pay doctors' bills? Here's au amount of an embezzler cap.tur&d. You. never knew the. pangs that the editor felt as he read the words that ruined the name and family of his best friends. "Let's see what sort of an editorial menu has becn-served up to-day. Ah!

Very spicy, that. But the man who wrote it hadn't slept a night for a week and felt more like composing his will. This is the cost of our American newspaper. Is it too much, 'is it too little? It appeals to me tis a great price for a great thing. In return for self-sacrifice and undaunted labor \ye have received the embodiment of energy, liberty, enterprise and originality —In a word, Americanism. I shall not enter Into a eulogy of the American newspaper. You need no one to tell you what it has -done. It is'the educator of our common people, th& inspiration of our youth,the censor of our morals. Mercenary? Yes it is mercenary, but the articles of the nameless authors who attack and destroy publicabuses, guard our -liberty and 6Crvc the nation, though written for money, are quite as full of true patriotism as those bursts of eloquence in legislative halls where the reward is that food of concentrated selfishness —glory."
