San Francisco has ever had and he will speak to you now"
 Mayor Phelan with this introduction, after acknowledging the compliment paid him, said
 San Francisco is the chief city of the State and coast, and many and vast are the benefits derived from its great commercial prosperity. This pros perity makes possible in the art of mining what otherwise would not be possible. Her citizens are eager to do their best and this exhaustive display testif1es the fact.
 By strange coincidence 1t Is just fifty years since gold was discovered here, and now comes a similar discov- cry in the great north. This will only serve to add to the glory and gain Of the city. Let me add that, while the money of this city has made many have repaid their debt. for with their orders for mining outfits and machin- cry, they in their turn have made 1t possible for those firms to establish plants here that enable them to help bulld the American navy; so that San francisco has become known as a ship building city. On this Washington's birthday, while we welcome you to our city, let us not forget that California
 
 ever ready to do her part in upholding the national honor. and we cannot tell rom the present crisis how soon she may be called upon."
 AL the conclusion of the addresses the invited guests witnessed the three handed drilling contests between the representatives of Nevada and Tuo- lumne counties
 Nevada County was represented by Inh and Tuolumne by Lewis Page, John Kitto and John Dingle. The first prize was S22o, and the second $120. This was offered by the State Miners Associa- ton. The terms of the contest were for nfteen minutes drilling in solid granite and While the worlds record of A lnches was not broken excellent ones were made. The judges were Professor Waldmer Lindgren of Stanford Uni verslty and Professor s. B. Christy of the University of California, while Ed ward H. Benjamin was the time keeper

NEWSPAPER REPORTERS
"A Defe ems of Their Reliability and


Integrity. .s1e,: :"
A very common error is prevalent
that the work of reporters, Given in
newspapers, as rule is not entitled to
respect or credence. 1t is generally
assumed that the reporter writes chief
~ or wholly to make a sensation, or in
some way interest readers without re-
gard TO facts, while just the reverse
is the truth in all reputable newspaper
establishments.
IL is safe to assume that the state
ments OF reporters given in the leading
reputable journals of the country are
quite as truthful as are the general
statements from the pulpit when the
minister gets outside of strictly re-
1glous teachings, and very much more
truth1ul than are the public express
slons OF most if not all of the leading
professions. With very few exceptions
the management CT our leading daily
newspapers enforce truthfulness and
fairness as the supreme attributes for
newspaper writer, and yet it is COM
mon for all who are displeased with any
reportorial statement to say that cts
d Ahefe newspaper story"
1t is true that there are a few con-
sp1cuous exceptions to the rule that
governs the reputable newspapers of
the country. Two newspapers in New
York have brought more discredit upon
the journalistic profession during the
last year than all other causes com
blned. They have done it by catering
solely to the most prurient tastes of the
public and to the most vicious sensa-
tionalism. They are not respected by
the public and should not be, but they
do not represent the progressive Jour-
nallsm OF the country, and they have
been more severely criticised by the
public press generally than by any
other GLASS;
Not only are the managers of our
leading newspapers entitled to great
credit for the scrupulous care they en-
force on their reporters and CORE
spondents to present the truth with as
exact fairness as is possible, but the
public little know the ceaseless care
that is exercised in every reputable
newspaper office to prevent the publica-
ton of even the truth when it would be
more harmful to publish than to sup
press it. There is not a week, indeed
hardly day, that the newspapers of
this city do not suppress the facts
proper for public information which
would make most interesting story,
solely because it would bring flood
of sorrow to the Innocent and helpless
and cast an imperishable shadow upon
their lives. With all the errors neces-
sarily committed in newspaper office
by reason of the haste with which the
articles must often be prepared, the
public little know with what thorough
integrity the newspapers, as rule, pro-
tect the innocent even at the cost of
suppressing legitimate and interesting
information. The skeletons of hum
dreds Of households are carefully
guarded in the newspaper Offices of the
country, and generally without even
the knowledge of the people who are
thus Observation-Disclosures Times.
