SAILORS ASK SECRETARY
STRAUSS To HELP Them

A deputation of masters, pilots ana.
marine engineers at Seattle presented
Secretary Strauss with a memorial
few days ago asking that he give his
attention to several grievances that
they wished remedied. The secretary
responded that the remedies asked for
lay within the rights of congress, but
that he would see that the matter
was placed before the congressman
for the Puget sound section of the
country.
Some of the things the memorial
asked for were that the seamen, fire.
men and officers connected with Unit
ed States shipping be enrolled under
certain regulations with a retaining
fee or service pension; that the diff
ferential rate offered railroads to sea-
port cities is destructive to marine
trade: that officers and engineers re-
ceive licenses only after residence of
10 years in the port; that the fishing
industry is in danger and should be
encouraged; and that a training schooT
should be established for boys.

FOR A CHAIN OF HOSPITALS
Casualty Company Has Novel
Scheme Of Insurance

A string of hospitals in all the i'm
portant cities in the northwest is the
latest plan announced for the Ameri-
car. Casualty company, the newly
formed insurance company of which
A. L. Ritter of Spokane is a director,
says the Spokane Chronicle.
The scheme is novel one by which
the company is to conduct it's hOspi-
tails in a number of cities where all
the sick or injured men and women
holding policies in the company may
be cared for. The announcement has
been made in Tacoma that the first
hospital has been purchased in that
city, and that the company VIII begin
to secure locations in Spokane, Seat
tie, Portland and other cities il. the
northwest.
The company was organized in
May on what is said to be an entirely
new plan," states a Tacoma report.

Injured patient is taken care of by
the company, put in the hospital,
given medical and surgical services
and is paid benefits.
ITO handle such a business it was
necessary for the company to own or
control hospitals, and the purchase
made in Tacoma is the first one. In
Centralia the company is Negotiating

NEWSPAPER ACCURACY.

A contributor to the New York
Times writes a letter complaining OF
the misuse by Richard Harding Davis
of the term bar sinister and says:
Mr.. Davis should bear in mind that
he is no longer a newspaper man, and.
therefore, cannot be excused on the
grounds of journalistic haste and
carelessness." This protest voices
a feeling that is, for some inscruta-
BILE reason. pretty firmly fixed in the
public mind--a feeling that writer's on
newspapers are careless simply be-
cause they write for newspapers.
With full knowledge of the errors.
of grammar and otherwise, which are
inevitable in the hasty preparation
and handling of the large amount OF
matter which appears in the average
newspaper each day, we venture to
say that, as much care is exercised IN
the making of well regulated daily
newspaper as in the keeping of the
accounts of many commercial houses.
The one objectionable sin in a writer
for a newspaper is carelessness. Never
before has the better element of the
press felt so keenly its responsibility
to the public. There are certain ir-
responsible journals which live by ex
aggeration and by the daily cry of
Wolf wolf" when there is no wolf:
but their character is so well known
that though they are read-toO wide

ence On the public mind is practical

More and more it is coming to be

life on its accuracy, it's good faith, it's
power TO resist temptation. Primarily,
the newspaper is the servant of the
people, and as it serves faithfully and
honestly and efficiently it is reward
