As soon as Collier's Weekly, containing this astound ing mis-statement, reached Seattle yesterday The alled to it Star's at tention was Cc and an immediate retraction demanded The Star does not use any news furnished by Wm. Wolf Smith. It knows that Smith sends er’s has been notified by wire of its gross blunder out from Washington, D. C., every few days to newspapers all over the land an alleged “Washington letter” on which are the plain marks of cor- pora axes to grind.” A copy of this stuff has been regularly sent to The Star and as regularly thrown in the waste basket. The Star has its own paid Washington correspondent. It has no use for Win. Wolf Smith or his “Washington letter.” This person is not the only hireling of corporation in Others of his terests who sends out “dope” to ilk are continually offering by mail, with the greatest gener osity, free newspaper matter, all of which, however, reveals Hews Papers its true character to an experienced editor, There is no known way of stopping these fellows from using the mails to inflict their matter upon newspapers, but there is the ever-ready waste basket to receive their con- tributions. Some of them va by wire, or by mail + to pay for at liberal rates. As everybody knows who reads The Star, a charge of using “tainted corporation news” in its columns is pre- ry their efforts by sending out matter der telegraph dates, which they offer posterous. The columns of the paper themselves give the lie to such an assertion. If there is one journal in the Pacific Northwest which has worked hard and persistently agaiast corporation greed and‘graft, both national and local, it is The Seattle Star. Collier's can do The Star no damage in Seattle or in the state of Washington, but it has done an injury to its repu- tation in other states, and The Star will expect full and com- plete reparation. If the editor of Collier’s had a memory, he would re- call that a letter was sent from his office to The Seattle Star on December 12 last commending The Star for being the one paper on the Pacific Coast which had the courage and decency to throw out patent medicine advertising from its columns and to start a war on the death-dealing drugs In fact, Collier's was so well pleased with The Star's efforts that it insisted upon sending complimentary copies to _ all of the members of the staff who would accept the same, and these complimentary copies are still being sent! If The Star was one of the sort of hankers after tainted profits it would hardly have cut out the patent medicine advertising, which pays so well, Nor would it have cut off the quack doctors who advertise so liberally in other newspapers. And lastly, it would not have made war upon the ad- vertising fakirs who use the dailies for mining stock swindles had it been actuated by any undue greed As everybody knows, The Star has today the cleanest advertising columns of any daily published in the Pacific Northwest. The whole history of The Star, as well as its present policy, shows how grotesque a statement Collier's made when it includes this newspaper in the list of Wm. Wolf corporation grab-al! newspapers that Smith's able assistants in boosting games. Roosevelt--Man of Vigor and Sentiment ‘The busiest man in America—and that means the busiest man fm the world. You know who he is—President Roosevelt. Today we publish an intimate story of the president's home and official ife. It has never been written like this before. It was done for the readers of The Star by a man with a keon oye and a big heart and a trained pencil, who was admitied for one day bebind the scenes. It shows that President Roosevelt, with all the cares and respon- sibilities of the greatest country in the world, finds more time for the niceties and the healthy pleasures and the sentiment of life than most of us. It telis of a full day's work, from before breakfast till bedtime, ot visitors and problems of state, of good books and stout jastions, of handshakes and a dash of 20 miles across country in a blustering rain for exercise If the president can find time for the healthy and heipful things of life, why can't men who have fewer responsibilities. He takes more time for exercise than we do. He takes more time for reading than we do. He writes more than we do. He ts with bis wife and children more than we are. He is twice as ener: getic as we are. He Is never tired, never worn out, always ready for whatever co as have in # year than we are likely to think of in a Mfetime. in the midst of it all, not only does he find the time, but he Is thoughtful enough and sentimental enough to hurry from his recep- tiom-room to his office, and bring back roses for two wee bits of children! Here is a lesson for you, Mr. Busy Man es. He bas more callers tn a day than most of in a morning he considers more vital questions The president has NOT time for useless pursuits. He ts too busy a man and too big a man. You may be BUSY enough to think you have no time for home and ffbrary and athletics, but are you How much BIG enough to use your spare bours for good things’ time do YOU spend with your wife and children @o YOU give to good books? How much time do YOU «pare to the beautiful thing we call sentiment? If your business is such a Jug- geornaut that it rides over all the the lovely and healthy and helpful activities there might be in your life, think what the business is—~and HB has time--HE MAKES TIME. Take a truth out of this story. The president in setting an ox ample not only of energy and honesty, but also of a SOUND MIND AND A SOUND HEART IN A SOUND BODY.
