NEWSPAPER ERRORS.

! l He HERALD has received from an
admirer a semi-jocular complaint
about the number Of errors, typograph-
| ical and otherwise, that creep into the
daily papers from time to time. For
itself The Herald claims no infallibili-
| ty. We freely admit that this paper is
! not entirely free from errors. From
\ time to time news reports are inaccu-
rate and purely mechanical errors Will
get into every newspaper oftener, per
haps, than they should. We can only
| claim that we do our honest and ear
nest best TO avoid mistakes of whatever
character.
And when we come to think the mat
ter over we wonder that mistakes do
not occur more frequently. Few peo-
pie realize what the preparation of a
metropolitan newspaper every day in
the year means. The reader buys it on
the street for cents or has it deliv-
| cred at his home. He gIances over its
columns, always finding something to
interest him, something To make him
feel he has been given full. pressed
down and running over value for his
money, We don't know where anyone
can get more for cents than he gets
when he spends it for a frst-cIass
newspaper.
II is well TO remember, you who cri-
ticise the newspapers for inaccuracy,
that the daily newspaper is the product
of a day. The world is searched for
news in which the public will be inter
ested, and some of the ablest writer's
in the country contribute TO the edito-
rial and other pages of dailies through
out the land. a Camden, y. J.. preacher
said the other day, expressing his ap-
probation Of the daily newspaper. that
matter equal TO the Junius letters is
born every day in our newspaper offices
and consigned TO the dust bin every
night
Writers for weekly and monthly pub
locations have practically unlimited
time in which TO prepare their articles.
Nevertheless they make serious mis-
takes The mechanical departments Of
such publications are as fine as money
can make them, and the men are the
best in their class. Better still, the
proofs are read and rerrad and revised
and read again. But mechanical errors
creep in somehow. Why, then. should
the daily newspaper. created in hustle
and stress and high nervous tension
be criticised for inaccuracy?
The wonder, as we have said. is that
the errors are not more numerous.
