It Is simost aiscoursging to fots ths freunent errors--if such mild word wiiI expfess st--which are sent broad cast over the country regarding the speeches ana conversations Of public men. whether this is caused by mis- undsrstandins of the words spoken. or by foreetfulness on the part cf those who report them. or whether the Ian kuage is deiiberately changed For the purpose q creating . sensation. or whether the misrepresentation ts done for the baser motive Of injuring the speaker: whatever the cause may bc. the public Is constantly being deceived and misied by false reports Of conver- sations and speeches which should be reported accurately or not reported at ali.
 One of the intest canards with which the public has been regaied is the state- ment alleged to have been made by Colonel John Temple graves. to the err feet that the President said to hin. or in his nearing. that he would wiliing- ly run for third term if by 50 doing he could break ana divide the solid south This went all over the country and has been commented on by the press everywhere. yet Colonel Graves comes out in a signed statement de- claring that there is positively no truth in the report. and that Roosevelt had made no such declaration to hlm or in his presence, or said anything which could De 50 construed.
 We do not now know whether the President himself has made any denial of the runior. but we must take the statement of coIohel Graves as true. unless we should get positive proof to the contrary. whether the canard was intended to injure colonel Graves. or the President. or both. or whether some sensation-monger merely wanted 10 create q sensation. we cannot say. but all must see that such reports not only tend to injura the parties thus accused. but also to lessen ths faith Of the pub lie in the newspapers and their corre- spondents
 Unfortunately, this is not q solitary instance. by any means. Incomplete. garbled or false reports of the sayings of public men are far from rare. The newspaper receiving ana first printing one of these canards may do go in per feet faith. believing it to be strictly true. yet that does not save the public from being imposed on nor the news paper itself from blame. It is inpos- sible for the editor or the manager of a daily paper to Always verify any re- port that may be sent him. but when he finds that he has been wiifuiIy de- csived he should make it unpleasant and unproatabls for the deceiver. Newspaper fakes are becoming entiFs- Iy too common.
