Show About Newspapers. No newspaper ever published pleased everybody, and every sensilble taker of a paper, in passing- judgment upon it, decides the matter upon the whole appearance ap-pearance of the publication from week to week, not condemning it because he finds something printed therein that displeases him, or considering it infallible infal-lible because it expresses, from week to week, his exact view's. Otherwise the only successful newspaper would be the one. which was neutral upon all subjects, or one which never expressed any views upon a point of interest, confining itself to mere items of news. These two classes of papers were never known to exist in an intelligent community, com-munity, after being conducted upon that principle for any length of time, for a community is judged by the outside out-side world by the newspapers which it supports. |
