VERSATILE PUBLISHERS (Editorial in Toronto Globe) The men who publish the weekly newspapers of Ontario held their annual meeting in Toronto yester- day. This is one of the interesting and important gatherings of the year These men are, in a special sense. representative o! the districts from which they come. True, they appoint themselves as delegates to this con- vention, but that obviates a lot of heartburnings associated with the electible plan. The country publisher knows his readers-and with the excellent pap- ers now issued these should include the entire community. He is the re- corder of day-to-day event in the if e of the people of his neighbor- hood. He knows what . is going on. There is an old saying among news- PaPermen that every individual has1 a news item concealed about him if, if can only be gat at. In a town or village it is easier ta di.slodge these than in larger centres of population; easier ta run down a good story. At all events. that is a reasonable ex- planation of the newsy nature of the country paper. Publishing a country paper is a- mong the most interesting o! occu- pations ta which an enterprising andi versatile individual may turn his hand. Many owners are editors and printers as well. Should one seek in a rural newspaper ta sec the pub- lisher, the editor and the mechan- ical superintendent. he would note a strong îresemblance between the three. Hence variety in work is the spice of the country newspaperman's 111e. Drudgery does not enter into the business. 0f late there has been in the rural Press af this country a marked growth in the spirit of independence in Politics. This may be the result of two or more papers joining forces --quite a common practice nowadays in towns and smaller cities: but no doubt it is chiefly because a paper can better serve its community when urlfettered by party ties. Wihatever the reason the day of the hidebound Party paper seems ta be nearing an, end. Political cleavage is not suj rnarked mn Canada as it was a gener- ation ago, and newspaper readers welcomne independence of expression. The weekly newspaper is coming into its own again in many wvays. The job printing end benefits by an in- crease in local patronage. and, be- cause of fewer rivals in the f ield. the ;ubscription list is more imipressive than in the days when a camînunity felt obliged ta distribute its support among two or three publications. There are many privileges and ad- 'antages associated with the publish- ing of a country paper. It provîdes for a man of original thought an op- portunity ta express his opinions freely on important public events. 1 He is bis own master.
