The Denver Post was edited yesterday by Presbyterian clergyman.

He hd been criticising the ne-wspapera and their sinner of displaying the newt, and that accounts for the invitation of the Poet to take charge of the paper for a day. It "-as of course a clever piece of business acumen on the part of the newspaper. There is nothing that sells papers like the incitement to curiosity. TVe can imagine that the citizens of Denver were very eager to see what sort of a paper the minister would pro vide for them, and we have no doubt that circulation and advertising returns for the day were very satisfactory. Now, as a matter of fact, a one-day editorship could prove nothing either for or against the code of ethics that the reverend editor would impose upon the Journalistic profession.

Only experience could prove whether his deletion of certain kinds of news and the exaltation of other kinds would satisfy the public. A one-day experiment could only show what sort of a paper in general the clergyman would like to "see issued, and even in one day he oould hardly find time to give expression to all his Ideas in this matter. 'But it is interesting at least to know how he would conduct the modern newspaper. And we' find that he did not print a line about the Stokes and StlUman divorce cases. We think that a newspaper man he should have told the people the news in connection with these suits; that is, if any news had developed.

The Commercial contents itself with doing this. It does not publish the mass of prurient details that have a certain appeal to certain minds. But the paper that makes up It mind not to publish filth must also make up Its mind not tp compete with its rival that does for circulation honors. There are very few newspapers today that are not printing all the details of these two divorce cases that they can get hold of, and those papers include such eminently respectable Journals as the New York Times and the New Tork Tribune. Ws are informed that the minister-editor cut out all items relating to boxing.

Why he did this we fail to understand. Certainly boxing today is one of the cleanest of our sports and is in far better repute than baseball. Possibly he has banned boxing because of its disreputable origit. It is a descendant of the prize fight. But the ugly features of that brutal sport have been done away with, and boxing's enthusiastic supporters have been and are today clergymen and teachers.

There was no more ardent champion of the science of boxing than Theodore Roosevelt. So we are very much at a loss to understand why so wholesome a diversion as this came under the minister's displeasure. But what surprised us was the publication of "Casey At The Bat." That is a clever bit of poetry- It is known to three generations. It has spirit, life and humor. But why should it appear in a newspaper? A newspaper is supposed to give news.

It is not a museum of ancient literature. "Casey At The pat is in the libraries of most people, and they can read it whenever the spirit moves them to do so. Certainly, a modern editor would never think of going to the archives of any department for his news matter. We fear that a newspaper that continued to publish twenty-year old stories to the exclusion of the news of the day would soon send his paper into bankruptcy court. "Th editorial, "The Ideals Of An Editor," was timely and proper, and while haven't the article before us we make) no doubt that the subject was treated as the scholarly- clergyman would have handled it in the pulpit.

The only objection to it on the surface that we would make is that it's tao long. A two-column editorial is Justified in certain circumstances; but the editor who makes a business of writing long edi torial wQ find himself in the same boat with the preacher who drags out TeXT a ZTecIC EATS tw Trie MlTIMl SATtSDAT (l ea, HJ.e it ti t.a, (Lee Wad. at e.

Among other aspects of the natural gas problem which have found their way Into the public record la a petition of a number of citizens for approval of the suggested merger of the natural gas company and the artificial gas-making concern. Attention is called in this petition to the fact that the gas shortage and the alleged restrictions which have followed have tended to paralyze Industry here and may have even dlsoourag-ed business venture.

It would not be surprising if this were true so far as diseouraging industries is concerned. The gas situation is lightly regarded by those who have plenty of it. Not so, however, by tboee who suffered this last winter. Whether a merger of the two companies would be the best way out of the present wilderness cannot, of course, be determined until we are fully acquainted with what that would mean to the ratepayers of Buffalo. Mergers of public utility corporations are not always to the beat interests of the people of a city.

The Canadian war veterans' aaeocla-tion at a meeting in Winnipeg has called upon the Dominion government to quit office. Politics on the other side of the border has its queer angles, too. Germany wants to pay only two and one-half per cent, interest. Wonder what interest Germany would have exacted had she won the war? The Teutons Insist on having their bawl at Just the time that the rest of the nations of the world are looking forward to a concert. About this time of gets interested in flies: flies, mother in house files to the outfield.

year everybody Father in trout files and son in TaLk of the operation of the full crew law on the railroads does not mean, of course, that there Is such a thing as a "full" crew any more. We still have the consolation of knowing that no matter what the weather is like in Buffalo it is generally worse in New Tork city. German lung power, however, might be utilised in setting the wheels of industry going again In Europe. Bootleggers crowing the border these days seem to be doing a great deal of double-crossing, too. May is living up to its reputation.

It may be nice or it may not we never can tell. WHAT THE PAPERS SAY KETUXSISO 8ASITY. Xew York World. Apparently the communist dictators ef Russia are Ktntlnt that there is seme-thing in econemic law after all. They may pillage and kill and decree a new state of man but they cannot establish prosperity by proclamation.

ITS SFA.VD BY OUR TTH PA.RTSZR8 -Vrtr Vork Tribunt. This country takes its stand by the side of Its war partners. As It recognized the monstrous wrong of Germany In the war, so it now recognises the equally monstrous wrong of denying reparation to Germany's victims Those who contend that France, Belgium and Italy should remain broken and impoverished while Oermany Is rich espouse a doctrine which Is a stench in the moral nostrils of mankind, and from It the administration turna with proper aversion.

Either the Improperly occupied region will be returned to Costa Rica voluntarily by Panama or the United States will make the transfer with whatever action "may be requisite." This closes the matter to all Intents and purposes, because, whatever Panama does or does not do, the land now in dispute will go back to Coeta Rica and It will stay there, since the United States government makes Itself permanently responsible for this righteous settlement.

Everybody who loeks the facts i the face knows that the senatorial primary Is an invitation, in many states a compulsion, to spend money lavishly. In Michigan a stupendously rich man. not correspondingly rich in intellect, was a candidate for senator. It was believed that it would take a lot of money, legitimately spent, to beat him. There has been a great ignorant Or hypocritical parade of the sweetest moral sentiment about the Newberry case.

There will and must be such cases so long aa this dishonest, unjust and humbug method exists. Old Isaac Stephenson of Wisconsin knew exactly what these new-fangled schemes are worth.

The preacher-editor of the Denver Post may or may not be a success as the maker of a daily newspaper, but he has at least given our editors something to think about. 50 BLANKET DEFENSE. The Times the other day spoke of the campaign methods that put New berry In the Senate, and said nobody dared vindicate them. The Commer cial dared.

Now the Times says that The Commercial has made a blanket defense of the expenditure of money in any amount for political purposes. Where our neighbor gets that idea we are at a loss to understand. Scanda lous expenditures are not to be con doned and not to be permitted by law. But there should be a sane and ra- llonaJ way of determln)ng the limlt. Por Instance, to limit a senatorial candi- date's primary expenses to $10,000 in Nevada may be perfectly proper, but It is obvious that it would be ridiculous to apply the same law to New Tork.

The one state has a population of 77,000. New Tork state has 10,384,000. We are far from sanctioning an orgy of spending by political candidates or their friends, but we do not believe in condemning the campaign methods that put Senator Newberry In the Senate when those methods consisted merely of a technical violation, and that not properly proven, of an unconstitutional statute. If there must be a limit to contributions to campaigns, let it be made intelligently on the basis of voting population. A EAT OF HOPE! The conference between Kamonn De Valera, who is regarded by his followers as the president of the Irish republic, and Sir James Craig, the new Ulster leader, may or may not have the significance that Is attached to it abroad.

Extremists on both sides of the thorny Irish question may regard it as a con- fession of weakness on the part of their respective leaders. F5y others, how- ever, it will be looked upon as a ray of hope. Despite the dark and bloody dolrvgs in Ireland, it is claimed by some travelers recently returned from Ireland that there have been certain evidences of late that the problem may be adjusted after all. While Sinn Fein ambushes continue and Black and Tans' reprisals follow, there is, it is paid, a strong undercurrent of feeling that Irish leader have recently shown a willingness to meet the British emissaries. The two visits to Ireland of the Earl of Derby, while denied their significance by the earl himself, are still regarded with interest by the students of the situation.

It may be too much to say that the Sinn Fein has given up the hope of Irish independence In favor of dominion home rule. Also, it Is almost too much to expect that the Ulster recalcitrants would give up their position on Irish self-government at once. Nevertheless, there is still hope of a settlement of some kind; and for that all who have Ireland's best Interests at heart, all who want to see American and British relations undisturbed, all who would see Justice done in every sense of that elastic word, devoutly hope and pray. Many will mourn the death of Charles McDonough, who was for so many years superintendent of the western division of the state canals. Mr.

McDonough was first appointed to that position during the admin hstra tion of Governor David B. Hill. Buffalo's death rate from automobile accidents is growing at an alarming rate, says the secretary of the National Safety Council. Unfortunately, it is not always the wild and reckless driver who pays the penalty. Chicago has adopted a curfew law which requires children under ten years Of age to be off the streets by ten o'clock at night.

It is probably designed with a view to save them from being hit by flying bullets. That sigh of relief you hear comes from the German cabinet which has it all figured out now that neither the Allies nor Germany can blame it for whatever happens. It this argument over the Sunday blue laws continues much longer somebody will begin to take it seriously.

Jt Sings Sunny Jim in the Butler Times about somebody he had a "peeve" at: "I knew him as old ten per cent; the more he made the less he spent; the more he got the more he lent. He's gone, I don know where he went, but if his soul to heaven was sent, hell own the harps and charge 'em rent." Some people In peace-time will be interested In this young man who went Into the army, says the Christian Register. On enlisting, he expressed the fear that he would face ridicule on account of his religion.
