THE JOURNALISM OF IDEAS, FRENCH NEWSPAPERS OLD STYLE AND NEW.
Apart from one or two papers in the provinces and four to five in Paris itself, it is views and not news that the French Press still seeks," (says a writer in The Timas French Bupplement),
A comparison between the Frencir and British newspaper Press would un- doubtedly show that from a technical point of view, that is to any, from the point of view of the display of news and articles, the quality of the paper, the style of the printing, the comprehensive nature of the nowa services, the French Press has a great deal to learn.
*CIRCULATION 1. POLITICS.
But when you come to compare the literary quality displayed in the papers of the two countries, there is no question whatsoever that the French need not fear the result. As a race they are bord writers, gifted with the power of a grace- ful and easy expression and turn of happy wit Even in the most obscure provincial sheet it is of almost daily uc": currence to fall upon at least one article of undoubted style.
"In "recent years, however, there has been a marked tendency in the Press, not ably in Paris, to adopt some of the fea tures of English and American journa liam. This has resulted in a process of industrial realization, and in the evolu tion of those Faris paper, which are known as the Grande Presse." The Grande Press "ia, as a rule,, much more concerned with its circulation than with its politics, although it, too, in times of politial commotion, is mobilized on one side or
the other. They are the most widely read newspapers in the world, having daily circulations which exceed by many hundreds of thousands the highest Agures reached by any inglish news- paper. This is partly due to splendidly organized systems of distribution, but the chief cause is, perhaps, to be found in the supreme hold Paris has on the mind of the whole country. The awerter in pro- vinces, although frequently he may have an excellent focal paper, turns to Paris for his menual Iowa,
"In normal times there are over sixty paper pablished daily in Paris itself, whereas in London, with a population. slmost twice be great, the daily news- papers number scarcely a dozen.. It will eabay be soon that the existence of the Levinthians of the Grande Presse deca not give very much chance of commercial prosperity to the small fry who cluster round politics, pr. seek a living in the somewhat turbid waters of finance. The position of a journalist in Paris, whether hebe attached to a great or to a small paper, or whether he be a free lance, is cariously complicated. They are in euor- mous number, and they fill the cafés with their chaster; they swarm in Ministerial antechambers they populate the Balles des Pa Ferdus of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies:
JOURNALISTS AS POLITICIAN. **Ministara and placehunters, the ins and the outs, appreciate the importance of their friendship, perhaps all the more so as many of the men who come to the. top, started their career as journalists, and only interrupt their journalistic activity when they are actually in office. Thus in the present Cabinet are some of the best-known journalists of the country. | Clemenceau has been, throughout the whole of his long life, among the most brilliant and ardent political writers in this country of polemie. M. Pichoti, Minister for Foreign Affairs, left the editorship of the Petit Journal to joia the present Government. Andrè Tardieu was foreign editor of the Temp when the "war broke out, and had only just started
big political career of rapid sCDER.”
