XhA President 01 the Association then de
Uvered hia Annnal Addressi We regret thai
time and space will not permit the publica
lion of this admirable production. ' Im the
course 'of his remarks be drew contrast be
tween the papers of to fiSgr and tWenvyflte
years:ago.' He referred7 the day whenihel
SiaMdrd and Fayetteville mderwr
supplied the reading matter for all sections'
pi. tnei tate; ,nQiw(. there are iw, papers mi
&tata. - "tfet discnased, inany.- practical;
topics for thelconaideratiofiTof the, members'
of the Association. Among ,)kn was the!
the, practice Of' drumming, which, it'
seems,! all editors i have to engage in.?
Hat Submrttedvthat inasmuch' - ai somej
periods of time have been termed vthe
Golden Age." nhe iron Age, and 'the Era ;
of Good Feeling," this ought by all means
to be called "the Age of Indiscriminate
Puffery,'? He thought editors onght to be'
so truthful that their utterances could be1
always- relied upon with safety. 'His-!
uyaenpturas pujgut 10 ue irue 10 ine; mub
criticisms ought "to-"-. be honest .and manly..
Nothing wul sooner, destroy the influence-
of a paper than for Us readers to know that
the editor is indiscriminate in his praise, j
insincere in his commendations, and unre-'
liable fn his statements. The editors Were '
"urged to discontinue the practice of puffing j
"unworthy men and unworthy objects. The!
editorial department ought to be the most
attractive part of a paper, and the Presi
dent advised editors to prepare their edi-!
tbrials carefully and. thoughtfully. The
habit of publishing sensational articles in!
the, family newspaper was condemned He
held that no editor of a country weekly bad ;
the right, to .outrage the public sense of:
decency; and propriety by publishing all.
the aiekeningiidetails of a crime.' The :
President shdwed how, through the exer-!
tlons of the Association laws had' oeen!
passed requIHhr the pnblktlbn of omcral !
iadd legal notices which : pay some editors
as much as $300 a year. He pointed out
five other such bills which ought to be
passed- He, showed how the people, as
well as the editors, were benefitted
by these laws requiring the widest pub
licity to be given to these laws
and notices. He next discussed journalism
as a profession, .and showed why so few
men of talent and education in North Car
olina had adopted Journalism as a profes
sion ; predicted that with the spread of edu
cation the time would come When all the
people would read and take papers and
then that the - profession of lournallsm
would step to the front rank; then will the
best educated and most talented young j
men go out from our colleges into the edi- i
torial sanctum. ! He" predicted that the day ;
Would come When editors would be re
quired to serve an apprenticeship and pass
an approved examination before the State
yould allow them to edit or publish a
newspaper,) He argued that it was as es
sential that editors should be examined and
licensed by the State as that lawyers and
doctors.. should be . thus examined. This
would elevate the profession; no profession
exerts so great an influence la moulding
public sentiment, and the public was In
terested in having educated and talented
men to control the papers! He next pointed
out the' advantages ' and disadvantages of
the cash and ' credit" system, aid urged the
Assodation ' to consider practical topics.
Other similar matters were t touched upon
