VOICE OF THE PRESS.
Extracts From Editorial Expression Of
Journals
Of the State and the Coast on Sub
jects of Living and News
Interest.

Oakland Tribune: A case has recently
been decided by the United States SUI
preme Court which reverses a rule OF
evidence that has been acknowledged
in many of the States. 1t was on a
question of the admission of what are
called dying declarations, and the
weight that is to be given such declar-
atoms. Justice Brown said dying
declaration by no means imports alb
solute verify. The history of criminal
trials is replete with instances Where
witnesses, even in the agonies OF death,
have, through malice, misrepresentation
or weakness of mind, made declarations
that were inconsistent with the actual
facts; and it would be a great hard
ship to the defendant, who is deprived
of the benefit of a cross examination
to hold that he could not explain
them"
CLEAN JOURNALISM.

would bar their doors against filthy

nauseous scandal to be unloaded upon

the heads of families to bar the doors

sensational publications should not be
taken as a criterion of all from a moral
standpoint Their success is made by
the patronage of people supposed tc
have the teachings of our schools and
churches. a circumstance which leads
one TO believe that they should be able
to appreciate the difference between
right and wrong. The future of sensa-
tional journalism is dependent upon the
intelligence Of the people. There is nc
use trying TO legislate against neither

prevails, in trying to establish obnox-

rescue. Jim Crow legislators and dema-

That is what they are doing now in
