In the memory ofthe oldest vot-} er, no candidate for President has ever been swept into office by such an overwhelming majority of both popular and electoral votes as has ~ President Roosevelt in Tuesday's landslide. In pur commonwealth, a Majority is always right and a great mgjority of perhaps 40,000,000 votnly emphasizes the right. President Roosevelt has the distinction of being more nearly the unanimous choice of his countrymen than any presexnt since James Monroe, who had but one electoral vote against him. We accordingly refuse to be down-hearted even though with our might and main, in this little corne: of our country, we strove to influence as many as possible to our way of thinking. We congratulate the President on his unprecedented vic>SS Here and there throughout the country were a large number of newspaper publishers und a much larger number of individuals who spoke their mind regarding the issues that confronted the people in the election just past. Individual citizens working among their friends, some of them gifted in the arts of persuasion and reasoning, may have influenced as many as twenty voters’ one way or another. These individuals would bitterly resent it, ‘were they éven criticised for ex‘pressing their views. The newspaper publisher, whoever, who does the same thing through printers ink, and speaks generally to larger circles than any individual, very often is bitterly condemned for exifressing his opinion or his view, in any controversial matter W.hat an individual does freely in ‘his limited circle, he often resents an editor doing in a larger circle. This is one of the paradoxes in a free thinking, freespeaking nation. It will be noted however that those newspaper publishers who are most downright and outright in the expression their opinions editorially, are almost invariably the ones with the greater circulation. The Hearst chain is an example, the Scripps papers is another, the Sacramento Bee in its field outstrips all competitorg_and the Los Angeles Times has the largest circulation west of the Mississippi. These newspapers express their views, unafraid. By and larag, it would. seem, that no matter how much individual readers may “differ from ~ editorially expressed views, they do prefer a newspaper which does not straddle, does not beg the question, but does stand _ for something, some. principle, some candidate, or some measure upon which the people must decide. we newspapers do exercise an educational influence in all public matters is true, but that they nowadays swing any large percentage of the voters to their point of view may well be doubted. That In the election just concluded, outside the Solid South where only a scattered few newspapers failed to . support the present Administration, three fourths of the newspapers were aligned against the. Administration, There was no cabal, mo conspiracy, among publishers to plump for Landon. They were moved to prefer one candidate against the other in practically the same manner and process reasoning as moves individuals tv cast their ballots one way or the other. The three fourtths of the newspaper publishers failed of their objective, it is true, but who shall say their long campaign and their arguments were tile. Although they failed of their immediatte objective, in the long run the discus-~ sion, pro and con will bear fruit unquestionably, either in modifying or changing, it may be in vital phases, the course of events that make history. For after all from an historical standpoint, four years in the history of a nation 160 years old, is only a small segment of its allotted time.
