The better newspapers, the majority of newspapers, we believe, strive to tell the truth, and for many reasons. It gives them an aspect of infallibi- lity which is flattering to any mortal man; it is more profitable, and fin- ally, it is more honorable. There are, of course, papers, and big papers which deliberately “color” the news own private purposes, who permit their editorial’ opinions ep into their news columns, bu is a hazardous undertaking, like unto trying to fool all the people all Such a course may win their suit y success, of retribution comes sooner Newspapers worthy the name eX- d more effort in “getting things eht” then in getting them.

The race was pulled off on September 8, put before making the finish, they were arrested by Officers McCormick and Seamans for exceeding the speed limit. In their defence the defendants took the stand that they were not beholden to the city for their actions while spinning through the ozone. Th case was decided against them, but we understand that an appeal will be taken to the district court. Ac Unfair and Untrue- Some of the Range newspaper men papers are lending the columns of their papers to a very unfair and illogical abuse of Congressman Miller because of his vote for Cannbn for speaker. Mr. Miller went to Washing ton as a Republican member of Con- gress, elected by republicans. As such no reasonable person would have expected him to do anything else than to go into the Republican cau- cus. It would have been very poor judgment in him to have lined up with the Democrats the very first thing. Mr. Miller opposed Mr. Cannon for speaker in the caucus and voted a j unbecoming to the reputation for fair but the inevit-; sixty foot aeroplane to the lake | hour, | would be instructed to} regulat- | 6.—The} Ata} regulating | tablished rule in politics and the highest code of honor in the house of representatives he was bound to abide by the will of the majority. In the contest over the tariff schedules and in the final vote Mr. Miller was constantly and emphatically opposed to the Aldrich propaganda, and to- gether with seven of his colleagues in the house and the two senators from Minnesota, registered his vote as against the Payne-Aldrich bill. His position was a trying one, and his enemies will do their best to persuade the people to believe that he was false in his promises.
