GETTING AT THE TRUTH
I wish some of our trad utters had sweat
half so much blood as most of us have
!?©t at the truth of a difficult piece
of news. In fact, most of these critics
are const it m ionaIK incapable of assuin
i11 ~ a neutral or dispassionate attitude
on anythin.ir. much less the job of the
news-paper man. 1 assure you I not nor
am aquainled with one whom I could
II ust, to <ro out and briny bacs an un
prejudiced report of a railroad strike.
5N hen we talk of truth in the news,
we mention somethiny as hard to disco
' ei in main instances as the apples of
i he Hesnerides.
'\ Ih " reporter describes n single c-n -
event. ii is comparatively easy to
be .icvu»;ale- for inpie. a lin- breaks
<<ul and which lias been «* x t tuiiished I. -
fore be leaves the scene. Hut unfor ui .
'•"* newspapers an* called upon to
further. V/e are expected to eivo
advance new.', as far as possible. \Vc are
expected to extract a hunch of truth
out ol a conflict in*r mass of data. Had
we the wisdom of Minerva the patience
<-l dot,, and the pertinacity of William
•lennimrs Bryan, it still would not suJHce.
The newspapers publish what both
sides sav, in the case of a strike, or in
any conflicting tumult were there is
more titan one participant.with or with
out its best ifuess labeled as such.
