bee NO CENSORSHIP. Justice Harlan Pays a Glowing Tribute to the Press. Justice Harlan, of the supreme court of the United States, in a lecture before the Law College of the University of Wisconsin on "Constitutional Law," gave the following compliment to the press of the country: "Nor shall congress make any laws abridging the freedom of the press." This is a wise provision! There are some men, stung to the quick by what they see in the newspapers, who would favor a law that would place the press of the country under a censorship. Much may be said against the manner in which newspapers are often conducted, bat I do not think that I overestimate their value when I say that we depend largely for our real protection in this country upon the. vigilance of the press.

It is almost impossible in this country, as long as the press is not muzzled, for corruption to hold sway for any great length of time. There are those who think that everything is going to pieces, that the nation is becoming as corrupt as all the nations of the earth, and they affect to think so because they see so many things in the newspapers. I want, however, to express the conviction that we are a good deal better off than we were fifty years ago. Not that I remember myself, but judging from what I have heard, we are not growing worse; we are getting better. The standard of public morality and virtue is higher than it was twenty-five years ago.

Our public men, whatever may be said to the contrary, in the congress of the United States are, in their moral character, a higher grade of men than were there twenty-five or fifty years ago. There are less vices among them. Old men, who remember what existed in Washington thirty or forty years ago, all say that. Now, I believe that a vast deal of this is due to the fact that the public press of this country is every day and every hour of our existence turning its light into the dark places, and ferreting out corruptions in their birth, and bringing before the people of this country that which they ought to know, and therefore I believe in this provision of the bill of rights. The Country Newspaper.

If you have anything to sell that commands trade outside of your own city, use the country newspaper. In the country newspaper you have a reliable and effective friend that does its mission at more family firesides than do many of the metropolitan dailies. In the country weeklies the marriage bells toll more joyfully than in the great city papers, and when the columns of such a home paper tell us that some humble person has gone from the world we read with tears, for he was our neighbor and friend. The country newspaper is not only a business guide, but it is a pulpit of morals for the entire community and county in which it is published; It is a kind of public rostrum where the affairs of state are considered; it is a supervisor of the streets and roads; it is a social friend, a promoter of friendship and good wilL Printers' Ink.
