Omcials and journalists in Wash

dominate the politics of the nation
and to an extent that is true.
The representatives and senators

lie questions from his biased point
of view, coloring his statements as
vividly as facts will permit, and
sometimes alas, beyond.
The newspaper correspondents at
Washington does likewise. He writes
for papers of certain political party,
and from that side only. Frequently
he colors up his dish of news from
rich fund of imagination, trusting
to the next day to correct the first
"rumors."
All this has taught the often de-
ceived public to hear and read with
growing disregard and unbelief. The
thoughtful reader prefers to wait for

public excitement over a department

inquiry, a false coloring given to an
alleged discovery may work irrepar

cause of good government.
AS a certain congressman said, with
reference to the exaggerated reports
which had gone out connecting con.
gressmen with the postal scandals:
You may go and wash yourselves in
