Public Men and Reporters
fFrom the salt Lake Tribune.l

(FrOm the sat Lake Irlbuhe.J
The complaint which public men
generally makes against reporters is

secretly. that they are endowed with
a subtitle cunning peculiar TO them
selves, and that they can throw a re-
porter clear off the track and not be
discovered in their design These are
always disappointed. A frank and fair
statement to a reporter is never taken
advantage of.

There are two elements whose wishes
are not to be considered in the present
emergency. They are the American and
the Cuban peoples. The game is to be
played by the Hanna-Sagasta combina-
ton. and, as great Cabinet officer very
confidently observed, THE people may

been furnished with through tickets for
the same place; but 1t should remember
its duty, and the wickedness of accept
