     The yellow press is not faring well at the hands of the critics these days, but unhappily criticism does not mean loss of business. The richest newspapers in America are as yellow as the gold in their coffers and they are growing richer through every extravagance they commit. A bad public taste is responsible, for if sensations were not in demand from the press they would not be supplied.
