One incident in his career, especially
exhibited his ideas about independent
JournaMs'm, and the widely different po
aitons of the statesman and the editor.
T3ms distinction few understand and
therefore blame an editor for taking
iosItion which he would not take if
Me were in the responsible oflice of a
statesman. As a lesson to the young
who are not generally instructed to
look at affairs from this standpoint, it
a especially instructive.
When Louis Napoleon destroyed lib
erty in France by his coup d etat,
Heeve wrote "leaders" in the Times
"Utterly denouncing him. Lord Gran
ville, the premier, wrote to him that
such articles goaded Napoleon to do
,misohief to England and, he wrote,
"may seriously inconvenience us.".
In a reply Reeve propounded his
-riewa of journalistic responsibility: "I
.should agree with you in deprecating
the censure of the Times on the French
Government if I thought that it had
been incited by any foolish desire to
goad on Louis Napoleon to acts of vio
lence, or that it had been carried be
yond the bounds of a just commentary
m the events of the day." What are
those bounds? "The responsibility of
Journalists is in proportion to the lib
erty theyt enjoy. No moral obligation
can be greater. But their duties are
not the same, I think, as those of
Statesmen. To find out the true state
r. facts, to report them with fidelity,
to apply to them strict and fixed prin
c5p4es of justice, humanity and law; to
Inform, as far as possible, the very con-
lence of nations, and to call dowrn the
judgment of the world on what is false
or base or tyrannical, appear to me to
be the first duties of those who write.
If the advice given in those three
words is heeded, good health will fol

reasons, principally, because it is con
taminated with vegetable and putrid
matter of all descriptions. A simple
analysis shows this to be a fact.
EXCERC1SE
Our doctors are busy treating pa
tients who are suffering from com
plaints, more especially malarial dis
orders, which will be materially bene
dtted if they drink a water that is pure
and possesses curative features, as does
Bartlett Spring Water.
DUE
Ask your family physician about tho
water, and if he is honest he will en
dorse its use.
All who have drank the water apeak
in the highest of terms for it.
This climate demands the use of
such a water and you cannot afford to
be without It.
VIGILANCE
We will serve free of charge a glass
of this wonderful natural Spring
water at our Soda Counter to all who
care' to come and test its virtues. We
deliver the water to your home in casa
lots at 6.50 for 50 pints, 9.50 for 50
quarts.
