NEWSPAPERS ARE NOT SPITEFUL

Quite often a person is found who
will say that this or that newspaper
has it in" for him. These people
take themselves too seriously. If the
average man only knew more about
the inside workings of a newspaper
he would become convinced that
there is no such thing as private re-
venge or personal animosity around
the shop" The papers print things
as they happen and a fellow has got
to do more than stir the bile of
writer to get the dignity of unfavor-
able mention. The word is looked
upon as so much copy" and the de-
faulting treasurer, or grating coun-
Gilman, or indiscreet preacher really
warns the cookies of the reporters
heart. The man who furnishes the
biggest story is the newspapers best
friend and, such is the perversity of
human nature, that people would
rather read about man who does
something bad than one who does
something good.
There are some men who are not
really crooks, but who are execres-
ences upon the face of the earth.
They are a bar to progress and a
curse to the town, but they do not
beat their wives, at least they are
not arrested for it, and they are not
charged with stealing, or any crime
that brings them within the purview
of the law and gives the newspaper
a license to tell the truth about
them.
When man gets too utterly OBJ
noxious the wise editor issues orders
that his name shall be kept out of
the paper unless he gets into court
meets with an accident, or dies. Then
he is entitled to mention the same
as any ''hobo" or bunko steerer
When man gets into the newspa-
pers frequently one may be sure that
the reason is better one than that
generated in spite or dislike. A man
is not mentioned, even unfavorably,

COHEN ACCOMMODATING
Sells Permit to Seine Calu-
met; Charged With False
PretenseS.

Gary, Nov. 27.-(Special)-Th
formal charge against I. II. Cohen, a
saloonkeeper, who was arrested this
morning is obtaining money under
false pretenses" but in the Patch YER
nacular where his saloon is located. it
is termed a case of catching a sucker
who wanted to catch a carp"
The crime with which Cohen is
charged. is the result of a combination
of circumstances that can be found
only in Gary. An ignorant Pole, see
ing a gold mine in seining in the Calu-
met river for fish. went to Cohen for
advice on the fish and game laws of
Indiana which as everybody should
know, prohibits seining at any time.
Cohen, however, was accommodating
TO the newcomer, and agreed to give
him a seining permit provided Seer
manskf would turn over $40. 1t was
much money for the Pole who wanted
to get started in the fresh fish bust
ness, but he paid and gleefully showed
it to his friends, among them Frank
Chambers. deputy constable. Advice
came thick and fast and all against
the seining proposition. Szermanski
was in a quandry and resorted to the
courts TO be reimbursed.

PET HEIFER STOLEN
Thief Breaks Down Fence
to Purloin Fine Two
Year Old.

Some person coveted a fine fat heifer
which was peacefully doing in the
barnyard of Thomas Norman on Shelf
field avenue some time last night, and
probably the same person will enjoy
juicy beef steak instead OF turkey for
Thanksgiving. To get the heifer out
Of the barnyard it was necessary to
chop down a goodly piece Of high
wooden fence, but this did not deter
the thief who used a hand AK and a
saw. The Norman family were asleep
in the house but a short distance away
and did not hear the thief at work
When the owner went out in the morn
ing he saw the damage done to the
fense and then found that the pet
keifer, a 2 year old, was missing. From
the marks in the road it is thought
that the animal was driven in the di-
rection of Whiting.
