The Columbus Capital appear
ed last week in an entire new
dress, 2 Sunday suit, so to speak,
elegant, fashionable and fitting.
The Capital is a.newspaper not
always to our liking, but from
that fact, perhaps, We like it best.
1t is fearless, and able, and en-
terprlsing. 1t strikes hard blows
and gets counter hits in return.
The Capital is sometimes knock
ed down, but never knocked out.
Now on IFS feet, and III its new
dress, We admire it.
The principal objection TO the
Capital is that in its indepen-
dence, so assumed, it leaves the
broad, big road and gets over in
to briar patches. We hope IN its
new suit, it will keep in the pro-
ceSsion.

Valuable Suggestions

To Newspaper Cerrespon
| dents.
The Cincinnati Enquirer makes
the following suggestions to its
correspondents which are valua-
BILE to every person who writes
for a newspaper
Persons who write On both sides
| of a sheet are notified that their
able efforts will be dumped into
the waste-basket without being
! read.
No rejected manuscripts will
be saved or returned, stamps or
no stamps. Keep a copy of your
articles If you want to preserve
them.
1t is assumed that every won
an whose name is written in copy
intended for publication is beau
tiful, or handsome, or lovely, or
all three. Therefore. it is unne-
cessary to mention that any wom-
an is either.
Don't sprain your intellect to
work the paper by sending stale.
revamped items, and don't try to
swell your reports by magnifying
or overdrawing your accounts of
happenings.
Editorials are not wanted in
news items, and will not be toll
Grated. Send the news in sue
cinct form, but express your
opinions through some other
medium.
Always tell the truth, no mat
ter who is hurt or helped.
Remember that as a correspon-
dent you occupy a place of great
responsibility and trust. Do not
try to use it TO injure any one
Do not try to punish any person
you may dislike. he has rights,
if you don't like him. ALWAYS
aim to be absolutely impartial
and just. In this way you can
best serve and elevate the noble
profession of journalism. You
preach to more people than any
minister addresses in year
Your influence tor good may be
boundless: for evil equally as
great. Remember this, and be
careful and sure. If you are right
let no man or men frighten you
from your position.
The campaign is about to open.
In reporting political meetings
do not let your partisan bias or
enthusiasm lead you to misrepre-
sent political opponents. Ii there
are 200 at a Democratic meeting.
don't say there are 1900. Iflhere
are 1000 at a Republican meet
ing, don't say it was a fizzie.-
Don't tell what majority either
party will have in any county,
for the people will know yon are
either lying OF guessing. Don't
say either party is harmonious.
when both are quarreiing. Don't
call the orators 'siiver- -toIgued," !"
''matchless," or say they held
their audience spell bound. y

mess are fictionS.
