advance certain selfish interests aid gratify certain selfish ambitious a P and makes make a vile land and personal fling at 9 t the head of the firm which all who have spoken to us on the matter have pronounced infamous the journal burnal our nal in concitis lon announces what it will do in regard to independent organs no matter which side they take and intimates that religious magg magazines and newspapers must not take part in political discussions first we will say that the young homans womans journal is not being turned into a political organ the editor mrs susa young gates announced at t the opening of the now new volume the addition of a department on an constitutional tut ional government in which political principles would be discussed we think this a moot excellent method of instructing detracting young people in the theory of civil government and quite appropriate in a young homans womans jou jot nial iZaal the articles which have appeared in that department forming but a small part of the maRaz lne so far as we can discover have been fair and impartial giving the views of adherents of both the great DatI national ODal parties on various subjects but the magazine haade baa devoted much more space apace to matters that are not by any means political oal As aa to the present number it contains three brief political sketches ketches by shurlock who maybe may be a lady or a gentleman it matters not which and we do not know orr or care one is called republicanism at home and con veys some gome of the views view of a highly esteemed republican leaders name not given chou amount to the opinion that while the theories of democracy are fine and beautiful they are impossible of application to the affairs of a great nation these opinions are not strongly put are open to easy criticism and are only given agthe as the views of an individual the second is a review of some parts of the noted speech of hon m thatcher rh atcher and the reply to it by mr F J cannon and on the whole appears favorable to the former while endeavoring to be gair to both the third is a becom emendation men dation ioB of 8 A ketners Keo Xen ners nerle very capable camble book the practical p politician goliti ci which is entirely unpartisan and and very anstr instructive octive that is all the politics to be found in the th july number now we venture to say that there to Is no attack on mr thatcher in the magazine nor attempt to justify mr cannon the article relating to their dispute is not from the radical republic views thoi first article but the opinions of shurlock and in any case it cantalina can taina nothing to justify the vile personal attack of the journal writer upon gentlemen who had no more to do with its composition than he had the editor who is now in the eastle solely responsible for the articles in the magazine the tae young womans comans journal is printed at the me publishing house bouse of 0 george eorge Q cannon sons business communications actions for font it are permitted to be addressed to their office does that make them its business managers 0 or r responsible for what it contains we happen to know that the firm arle are not either laither financially or editorially associated with the magazine and have no DO further interest in it than that which comes through printing it for which they receive pay as for any other oh iob work the DESERET NEWS company has for many years printed papers anu ana magazines in id the same way and would not like to be considered responsible for what they have contained it if the journal has a job office would the owners like to be re regarded gardea as responsible for every sentiment or statement appearing in what they print for other people if they should permit a person or a paper to have business commini addressed to their offices office would they like to have that used ws ae proof that they were the business managers mana gerB of that individual and were responsible for all his views and sentiments lenti senti mento menth the rho idea Is ie as silly sill j as the insinuation coupled with it to ia unwarranted now as aa to independent and re journals politics la Is a subject free to every citizen and therefore to every paper in the united states the NEWS will exercise the right to comment upon any subject re legious ligi ous political oai or otherwise that be cornea comess a matter or of pu one i merest interest the ine young womans comans journel has baa an equal right to do the same of course what either says saya is open to fair criticism but no person or paper has any right to attempt to muzzle it 11 or to sent it and certainly a personal at tack upon an honored gentle gentleman mao because a publishing firm of which he is the head bead has printed a magazine tor for some one else which contains an article objectionable to a political advocate is indefensible and discreditable from any point of view whether public or private |
