The Clergy and the Press

(Moncton Transcript.)

Rev. W. W. Brewer, a Methodist clergy man of Charlottetown, who kas accepted a call to the Central Church here, is just now engaged in a controversy with the news- paper press of the Island capital. The difficulty arose over the publication of the evidence in the Larter trial, Mr. Brower contending that the papers cuntaining the result of the evidence were unfit to be read in the homes and by children.

It is « little surprising to find a gentleman of Mr. Brewer’s attainments indulging in a cheap and superficial criticism of the prees; but if he has been shocked by the news. papers in Charlottetown when he comes to the mainland his supers nsitiveness is | ke'y to be horrified.

A perusal of the Charlottetown news papers containing the repirts objected to show that the reporters have dune their un pleasant duty with a fair amount of judg ment and discretion. Had the Chariotte- town newspapers probed after objection- able news merely to satisfy a prurient public taste the censure might be justifiable; but the sed event became in the ordinary course of events through the trial a matter of public concern—the public was interested im knowing the facts of the case. It may be that in the hurry and bustle of the dai'y pulication of evi- dence, much of it taken at the very last possible moment; the press sometimes does not choose the best form of expression in sach cases, but allowances must be made in such exigencies of the newspaper situation.

No good is to be done by suppressing the truth. The newspaper editor's daily duty is to combat the influences which bear from Monday morning to Saturday night, re- pressing the publication of news which their vocation and the public needs demand shou'd be published, and no class acts as the mediator in such cases more frequently than clergymen. Non-publication seldom does the good purpese it is intended to serve. Where once it dues good, in nine cases it encourages those who cffend ag :inst the law and the rules of society.

It is not the punishment irflicted by the courts which the ordinary cffsnder fears half as much as he dves the pubiicity by the press given to the offence associated with his name. The press is as much an effective moral police as is the pulpit.

The publicity given to the details of the Larter trial—the sin of the unfortunate girl; its tragic consequences; the prompt manner in which the law seized the alleged vienders and accessories to the crime; the bitter anguish and shame visited upon the girl's relatives, are incidents preaching to-day asterner sermon upon the text ** The Wages of Sin is Death,” than was ever preached in the most eb quent sermon which has yet fallen from Mr. brewer's lips.

Unpleasant as it m+y be—sad as are «ll the surroundings—yet the story of the unfortunate girl, her sin, her shame, her death; the arrest and possible punishment of the accessories to the crime which caused the latter; are conveying a terrible warning to thousands of young women and young men throughout the land. The lesson may not be pleasant telling, but it does its mission. Without the publicity of the press, the influence of the Charlottetown tragedy as teaching a painful lesson and conveying an equally painful warning would have been restricted.

The Bible which sets the best example of an editor’s work presents the world as it is—virtue and sin—honor and shame-- light and shadow—side by side with the lines of contract and the lessons incul- cated strongly brought out. No false sentimentality caused a halt in the werk. Without irreverence, it may be said, the modern editor, too, has to present the world as he finds it or his usefulness is marred. The palpit is generally too ready to censure the editor’s mistakes, too tardy in commending his services to the church, society and the atate. The editor’s aims are as pure as the clergy- man‘'s—his life just as sanctified. His ervora against taste are no more frequent than the clergyman’s. There aie two sides to the controversy raised by Mr Brewer, and the editors of Charlottetown have done well in bringing the fact promptly to the knowledge of their reverend critic.
