Newspapers Should Have No Friends.

A Journalist Is The Lookout On The Bridge Of The Ship Of State. He Notes The Passing Sail, The Little Things Of Interest That Dot The Horizon In Fine Weather. He Reports The Drifting Castaway Whom The Ship Can Save. He Peers Through Fog And Storm To Give Warning Of Dangers Ahead. He Is Not Thinking Of His Wages Or Of The Profits Of His Owners. He Is There To Watch Over The Safety And The Welfare Of The People Who Trust Him.

I Desire To Assist In Attracting To This Profession Young Men Of Character And Ability, Also To Help Those Already Engaged In The Profession To Acquire The Highest Moral And Intellectual Training

I Want To Talk To A Nation, Not To A Select Committee.

Newspapers Should Have No Friends.

My Especial Object Is To Help The Poor; The Rich Can Help Themselves. I Believe In Self-made Men.
