"News' Methods and Ring Organ
Methods.
At no time within the last few
weeks has the difference between the
methods of treatment of news matters
in THE JERSEY CITY NEWS and its
only competitor been displayed as it
was last week. The attempt of the
Ring rascals to rescue Repeater Todd
from the custody of Court Officer
Graham was made by its relations to
the topic uppermost in the public
mind the talk of the town
last THURSDAY evering. The Journal
filled considerable space with words
about it; but THE News gave the in
teresting story of the assaults with all
the exact details. Its account showed
in the c~learest light the series of devices
resorted to by the Ringsters n after
another to get their friends out of the
hands of the law. That particular
feature of the affair was studiously
kept out of view by the Journal; and
yet it was only as a development of
Ring rule in the city that the story
had the slightest interest.
Then there was the death of jose
phine Ferber, of the Heights, by
drowning, at Lake Hopatcong. There
was an air of mystery about her sud-
den taking off that piqued interest in
the girls fate all over the town. The
NEWS appeased the public demandfor
information by sending one of its staff
into the Hopatcong region to learn
all the facts; and on Saturday, while
the Journal press was flashing the
startling news that sit is believed and
hoped the coroner will find out the
facts of the case,n the NEWS was
| placing in the hands of it's thousands
of readers ''the true facts of the case''
from the pen of one of its careful and
skilful correspondents.
THE NEWS is always ahead. Its
effort is first to find out what the pub
lie would most like to know most
about, and then supply the informa-
ton. The Journals idea of Journal
ism is to fill it's space with type.
