NEWSPAPER CRITICS.

There are those among the read
ers Of newspapers, though fortunately
few in number, says The Forth Es-
tate" who seem to be imbued with the
idea that newspapers generally are
not over particular as to the truth of
articles printed in their columns;
that what they are after is some5
thing to fill up with, and, provided
the matter can be made to appear at
tractive and catchy, it matters very
little whether it is based on truth or
not. or course there are no grounds
Tor any such statements, and if those
misguided individuals who hold to this
belief would use a little common
sense they would see how fatal any
such policy would be to the success Of
newspaper.
AS matter of fact, one OF the big
gest items of expense in the publica-
tion Of daily newspaper is the yeri-
fication of the news.
This is what the New York Journal
has to say on the subject
Every enterprising paper tries to
tell the truth at all times. It's whole
organization is directed to that end.
An it's vast expenditures of money and
energy are directed to the work Of col
lecting facts, and facts are truth.
Every reputable paper makes it a
rule to discharge any employe who de-
liberately imposes upon It with a false
statement but in spite of all precau-
tons such imposltions do sometimes
occur.
And innocent mistakes occur some
times too.

oath in court describing things they
personally saw, half of them will con

The Facts 10 the Chicago Convention
Matter--For ,aealls First,


The Newkrk Repubncan-News.
journal says
several different stories have been
told of how Governor Jenhins made
himself conspicuous as a supporter of
William Mckinley at Che Republican
national convention at Chicago I'm
1855 ana thereby strengthened his
Friendship with the future president
TO a degree that was Of great assist
ance 90 him when he became q caudi-
GATE for office The true story. as
told by Governor Jenkins himself IS
as follows
"Thc Kansas delegation was divid-
ed in its choice for president Some
Of the delegates were for Ingalls,. and
others were fo Blaine. Alger and
sherman at a preliminary caucus it
was decided that tine FIRST ballot
should be given complimentary to In-
gals after which each delegate
would Dee pleased to vote as he pleas
ed jenkins stated in the caucus that
ne had known Mckinley from boy
mood had grown mp in the same CON
gressional district in Ohio and had
always regarded him as man of
destiny who would some day become
president Of the United states. He
iAtended TO support him In the CON
yention and would do his utmost to
secure his nomination. Following the
first ballot for ingalls,, Jenkins began
voting for McKinley, who, as a matter
of fact. was not an aggressive candi-
date. There were Mckinley men in
the different state delegations anxious
for his nomination but who yielded to
the wishes Of their leaders and voted
for other candidates
when it became apparent that the
nomination would go to Harrison the
Kansas delegation caucussed and pre-
pared to climb on TO the band wagon.
Jenkins was asked to vote with the
delegation, which he declined to do
saying that he was for Mckinley. A
poll Of the delegation was demanded
and when Je kin. announced his vcje
he raised his voice au3 said, will
lam Mcinlley OF Ohio. This was
heard in the remotest galleries and
was ar7wered with a shout.
Shortly afterwards, and just be
fore the Kansas delegation was call
ed, Mckinley arose in his seat and
protested against his friends voting
for him, saying that he was not a can
didate, In the ballot that followed he
crossed over to the Kansas delegation
took Jenkins by the hand and re
quested that he desist from voting for
him. Jenkins replied; AS | did not
begin voting rfor you with your re
quest, hardly feel obliged to heed
your request. | expect to continu'
voting for you until your are presi

Jenkins voted for Mckinley ever
upon the ballot that nominated Hsrri

ORIENT CONSTRUCTION
Evidence That Road will
be Work
Progressing

a fresh interest has spung mp In
the affairs Of the Kansas city Mexico
& Orient railroad. because of the late
evidences that It is to be pushed to
completion with an possible rapidity
The ground was broken In Emporia
Monday for the construction of the
new line across Lyon county. The
grade from Anthony, Kaso to Augusta
o. r., is completed and ready for the
rails The principal work is now be
ing done on the 15 mile stretch be-
tween Emporia and Elinor, on the
south side of, and only a short dis
tance from the Santa Fe tracks From
Ellinor the route has not been de
cided upon, but IL is probable that
Cottonwood falls lwil be touched
East of Emporia the Arvonia sur
vey has been selected nd the com
pany is divided regarding the choice Of
routes offered Lyndon is very like
ly to get the road If bonds are voted
as that is the best route yet surveyed.
So much for the prosperity that the
Orient is enjoying; there are some
obstacles, however, that are being en-
countered. In the first place the land
owners are said to be kicking because
of the route which the new road is TO
take Running closely parallel to the
Santa Fe main line for a long distance.
It is claimed that the land between
the two roads is rendered practically
vaiueless. Then out near the line
between Lyon and Chase counties the
farmers are mad because. as alleged
the Orient survey viii make the line
bridge over the Cottonwood rive use
less. 1t is asserted that the railroad
viii run along the wagon road to a
point almost opposite the approach
and when that is reached it will swing
off around the bend Of the river rem
dering as Is claimed, the bridge use
less.
Then in Emporia a good deal Of dis
satisfaction with the proposed route
has sprung up. The present survey
runs along Second avenue where con
siderable valuable property is located.
The property owners have about decid-
ed to begin legal action against the
Orient people ami some time ago
when they were thinking about this,
employed John Madden, a promin-
ent lawyer of the town, to conduct
their case. Madden, as reported,
promised to see that not a foot of
ground should be broken by the grad
ers under threat of legal restraint.
The honor Of turning the first spade
full of earth was to be decided by pop
ular vote and the Orient friends at
once concluded that il Mr.. Madden
was to carry out his threat, his own
daughter should be the one to suffer
the penalty The form of breaking
ground passed Off smoothly Monday at
Emporia and the chief participant in
the ceremonies was Miss May Madden,
daughter of Attorney John Madden.
The people along Second avenue are
firm, however in their determination
to compel If possible the new road to
change it's survey through the town.
