Former Governor Murphy has no idea

He is supporter of Senator Dryden.
Everett Colby has said that he would

unless instructed otherwise by the voters
of his county in the party primaries and
convention. Mr.. Murphy has no hand
whatever in the Senatorial contests in
Union Somerset and Gloucester. There
is no other candidate for the United
States Senatorship in sight but Senator
Dryden.
The remarks Of the Journal" reflect
on the good faith of former Governor
Murphy, BY making it appear that he
is conducting secret personal campaign
against Senator Dryden, to whose candi-
dacy he is understood to be pledged. Mr..
Murphy, as everybody in Essex knows,
has nothing to do with the candidacy of
Mr.. Colby. Like the other party lead

to allow the Essex Republicans to set
tie their local differences themselves.
And he knows that they will settle them

The other day dispatch informed the

says the Boston Herald. A few days be-
fore one prominently spoken of as can
didate for an important public place de-
clared, as if this were his private busi-
ness. that he had nothing to say TO news
paper men, as if the newspapers would
have nothing to say to him. These are
sample instances. There are many like
them. Every once in while we see be-
trayed disposition on the part of some
of our lessknown fellow citizens, who
may be momentariy interesting the pub
lie, to treat with cruel disdain. or with
an assumption of naughty indignato on,
those busy men whose task if is to keep
the pab,c infermed of what is going on
in the world. 1t may be, indeed. that the
pubic is sometimes greedy for informa-
tion which ought not to be furnished 1t,
buf that ii is frequently furnished with
such Information is usually the public's
fault. ANY newspaper would be foolish
10 print what the public does not desire:
beside. vice may always be pandered to
b. some one.
We are inclined to the opinion. after
reasonably long experience, that those
who resent the supposed intrusion of the
reporters are usually men of mere mo-
mentary Importance, and nearly always
they are quite mistaken as to the func-
fions and the value of the reporter. They
may be lifted up by the selection of the
past which they command for an unusual
purpose, or they may be gossipped Of as
the possible ineumbents of public office,
or they may be concerned in marriage,
\ or in a birth, or in death which, for
one reason or another, Is justly and pro-
perly interesting to the public. The idea
that possesses such persons of temporary
interest is usually that their privacy is
being intruded upon; that they are being
annoyed and prosecuted for the gratifca-
tion of the curiosity of the reporter him
: self. whose unpleasant duty it Is to
gather and present what the public de-
sires to know. Such person may rest
assured. however, that the reporter is no
more pleased with the task of visiting
him and interviewing him than is he to
receive the agent Of the newspaper. The
reporter is very intelligent servant of
the public. His duty IS to find out what
the public wishes to know about, and it
usually has the right to know what he
seeks. Moreover as rule. It Is best for
the public that ii should have the infor-

The suggestion that Mr.. Colby, or any

should pledge himself in advance upon
the United States senatorship. will not
be accepted. The election does not oc-
cur for two years and more, and con-
