NEWSPAPERS AND CRIME.
Harm Dono by Yellow Journalism
and Its Remedy..
lrom the Philadelphia Tlmesc.
The mas or of a western cits' has Jus
appealed to the edltois of the news
papers published with the area under
his Jurisdiction to cease the publlci
tlon of unnecessnv details in legard
to suicides. He believes that many are
led to take thelt lives through leading
the nccounts of how others hnve ac
complished self-destruction nnd he is
entlrelv right in this conclusion. Pss
chologlsts nnd cilminologlsts have es
tablished this fact besond any doubt,
suggestion is a powerful Influence to
turn the mind Into one channel or
anothei, nnd miny a gruesome plot
has been hatched nut of brains that
havo been befuddled by some Insldlnus
lv written stoiy In a sellnw Journil.
The losponslblllts of newspapers, which
is nlwass. gieat. Is vastly increased
since thes" aie so universalis read and
since science Is able mote or less ae
cuiately to gunge their Influence for
good or for evil nnd to saddle editors
with their own loads
In seveial lecent Instances associa
tions of alienists have discussed the
responsibility of the press In reference
to lns.uilts. cilme, nnd suicide, alwass
coming to the conclusion that It Is
lmpoitnnt and great A brain which
Is halt-ciaed with the tioubles and
difficulties of life will often have only
a shoit was to go to thoughts of sui
cide. Men whose minds are disordered
bv want and mlsfoitune are often In
duced to tiy highway robbery, huiglaiy
and abduction by leading accounts
of these things, written up as If they
were fine ndventuies. Murder and all
kinds of crime are suggested by news
papeis when thes me not carefully
conducted with an ese to tho general
public Intei est.
There Is n belief among some specu
lator In the publishing trade that the
people want highly embellished ac
counts of crime The morguesand pollen
courts are scoured for orlmlnil stoile
and they aie often furnished to the
public with plctuie and phiase that
no reider can escape They t-xeit a
wlde-i caching and i positively hirnifu
Inllurjice upon the people. But doe
the public or nnv large put of It
icnlly want this kind of journalism
Theie Is a demand foi the news, of
couise. nnd this it Is the duty of every
good newspapei to supply to Its le.ad
.is das by day. It stands as a clear
ing house between them and the world
at large to collet t and teport such In
formation as they ought to possess
They ought not to want and ought not
vet have what Is harmful to them, and
should avoid the papeis which make
It a business to publish such matter
as thes would some poisonous pest
That a certain amount of hitter must
go along with the sweet Is well under
stood Ciline and suicide, when they
Involve pioniinent persons nnd in soma
way appeal to a legitimate human in
terest, must be recotded In the news
pnpeis. These things then fall within
the field of news, hut they should al

tho sole view of giving the public tho

lepoitet's Imagination nie unmitigated
evils Moiies ot cilmc that Inlng In
people of no consequence and aio
simply pilnted to sitlsfv (joine piutlent
and moi bid fancy nie the cutses of tho
time. Crime doubles Its-olf In this way,
and the newspapei bee nines tho chief
igpncs for piopagatlng It !-elf-iespeot-ed
peoplo owe It to themselves nnd to
soilety nt lingo to tiown upon this
kind of Journalism by neither huslng
nor leidltiK sin h mwspapeis. If they
should do this the sehow join nil
would soon change Its color and dis
