WALKER & FANCIL, Printersand Publishers Application jor entry as second-class matter at the post office, at Syracuse, Indiana, *- For the People. We believe that the editors and The Journal are two distinct entities. The s editors may belong to whatever church, lodge or political party they choose; the newspaper should belong not to any one of them but should serve them all impartial iy. | We believe thajt the adage “If . you can tay nothnig good of a person say nothing at‘all’', applies to a newspaper just as well as it does to an individual. ' We believe it to be the first duty of a newspaper to strive for the uplifting and upbuilding of its community, and this duty should impel it to print only kinfliy words of help and encouragement for every worthy industry within its town and its field, whether those controlling that industry are patrons of its columns or not. < •■ . j We believe that, however many 'it

enenies the editors may nave (and any one of decided opinions is pie‘ty sure to have them) the newspaper 'hould have none; or, if it has them it should refuse to be aware of it. We believe that every person, be he democrat or republican, saint or sinner, has rights that ought to be respected and is entitled to a square leal. It is a mistake to leave out what ought to be pr nted; it is a much greater mistake to print what ought to have been left out., 1 . 5 /’I “Boys flying kites hauT in their whitewinged birds; You can’t do that when you are flying words. Thoughts unexpressed will oftinies fall back dead, But God himself can’t kill them when they’re said. ' It should be the constant aim of a newspaper to always print all the news of its community that ought to be printed, and its readers should feel sufficient interest in promoting the good feeliiagp and amity of the community to impel them to assist it to accomplish this bv reporting to it small news items that opine to their knowledge; Short items reporting the coinings and goings and small doings of individuals always make readable news. Bow near we shall come to the attainment of our ideals we shall see. THE WEBSTER TROUBLE Milo Kline, who said he was shot by Officer Douglass, while trying to arrest him for illegal fishing near Webster Lake, was prob ably more soared than hurt. Dphglass said he fired Ins revolver toward the ground, ar 1 that Rigpey and Vanderford ’fired into the air to induce Kline to stop, but he was certain no shot went near Kline.
