Newspaper Reporters.
From the Philadelphia Tribune.


A very common error is prevalent that
the work of reporters, given in newspapers,
as rule is not entitled to respect or Gre
dence. 1t is generally assumed that the
reporter writes chiefly or wholly to make
a sensation or in some way interest readers
without regard to facts, while just the re-
verse is the truth in all reputable news
paper establishments.
1t is safe to assume that the statements
of reporters given in the leading reputable
journals of the country are quite as truth
full as are the general statements from the
pull pit when the minister gets outside of
strictly religious teachings, and very much
more truthful than are the public expires
sions of most if not all of the leading pro-
fessions. With very few exceptions the
the management of our leading daily news
papers enforce truthfulness and fairness as
the supreme attributes for a newspaper
writer, and yet it is common for all who
are displeased with any reportorial state
ment to say that cit S mere newspaper
story.
1t is true that there are few conspicu-
Gus exceptions to the rule that governs the
reputable newspapers of the country.
Not only are the managers of our lead
ing newspapers entitled to great credit for
the scrupulous care they inforce on their
reporters and correspondents 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 suppress
it. There is not week, indeed hardly a
day, that the newspapers of this city do
not suppress the facts proper for public in
formation which would make most inter-
esting story solely because it would bring
a flood of sorrow to the innocent and help
less 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 a rule, protect the innocent
even at the cost of suppressing legitimate
and interesting information. The skele-
tons of hundreds Of households are care
fully guarded in the newspaper offices of
the country, and generally without even
the knowledge of the people who are thus
protected.

In the news last week was an item
to the effect that Andrew Carnegie had

SHOWS that he has become a permanent
member of the New York colony of
millionaires.

it that New York has sucB-an attrac-
