A WORD ON NEWSPAPERS.

A contributor to the New York
Times writes 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 news
paper man, and. therefore. cannot
be excused on the grounds of jour
This protest voices feeling that is,
for some inscrutable reason, pretty
firmly fixed in the public mind
q feeling that writer's on newspa-
pers are careless simply because
they write for newspapers.
With full knowledge of the err
rors, of grammar and otherwise,
which are inevitable in the hasty
preparation and handling of the
large amount of matter which ap-
pears in the average newspaper each
day, We venture to say that as much
care is exercised n the making of
well regulated daily newspaper as
in the keeping of the accounts of
many commercial houses. The one
objectionable sin in writer for a
newspaper is carelessness Never
before has the better element of the
press felt so keenly its responsible
ty to the public. There are certain
irresponsible journals which live by
exaggeration and by the daily cry of
Wolf! wolff where there is no wolf;
but their character Is so we'll known
that, though the are read-too wide
ly for the public good-their influ-
ence on the public mind is practi-
cally nil.
More and more it is coming to be
that a newspaper depends for it's
very life on its accuracy, its good
faith, its power to resist temptation.
Primarily, the newspaper is the ser.
want of the people, and as it serves
faithfully and honestly and efficient
~ it is rewarded. 1t is the business
of the newspaper to discover the
truth and present it clearly, neither
extenuating nor setting down aught
in malice. Anything less than this
means death to the journal that At
tempts Washington Herald.

A MENACE TO THE CITY.

The fire of Saturday morning has
forcibly shown the danger of allow
ing wooden Shacks to stand in the
center of the business district. A
few wooden structures of compare
lively small value are the direct
cause of half destroying a handsome
business block recently erected at !.
large expense. In addition some of
the leading stores and offices in the
city suffered great losses. In the
ruins were discovered the charred
remains of at least two men and it
is believed more will be found as the
search continues. Before the fire
which wiped out the wooden shacks
where the Donald-Keck building
nc stands, The Herald pointed out
the adyisability of eondemning these
buildings, and although there was
great protest a move was advocated
by the greater number of business
men. These buildings no doubt
would have been condemned had not
the fire saved the trouble. In the
business district are still wooden
hulks, unsightly and dangerous. A
tiny flame means a couflagration;
possibly more lives lost, probably
damage Of thousands of dollars The
only onsolataion found IN the fire
Of yesterday is in he fact that the
old wooden buildings will be replac-
ed by a slightly structure of brick
and stone Saturday the Pacific ho-
tel, the Sloan building and other
structures Of great value were threat
ened by the fire. If the wind had
suddenly turned it would have been
a short jump to wipe out half the
business portion of the street Men

Federal Court Holds Intrastate Road

st. Louis, Nov. 29.-The Federal Court Of
Appeals here to-day decided that any railroad
wholly within a state but carrying goods con-
signed from point in another state is sub
ject TO the interstate commerce law and to reg
ulation by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. The decision was given in the test case Of
the United States against the Colorado & North
western Railroad, forty miles long, in Boulder
County, Col, to recover penalties for failure 10
have airbrake equipment on freight cars, and
reverses the decision of the District Court for
Colorado.
The majority opinion, written by Judge Wal
ter II, Sanborn and concurred in by Judge
Willis Vandeventer says: THE Constitution re-
served 20 the nation unlimited power to regu-
late interstate and foreign commerce, and If that
power cannot be effectually exercised without
affecting intrastat& commerce then Congress
may regulate intrastate commerce. The state
must give way"
Judge John S Phillips, in dissenting stands
strongly for states rights, and says: The phil
apthropic feature of this prosecution is but the
rose in the mailed hand He speaks of the in
speCtors of the Interstate Commerce Commits

PORTER Is RECOGNIZED.
HAS PRESIDENTS o. X.
Considered a Regular Republican
Despite Hepburn's Decision.
Iron The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Nov. 29-The decision of Repre-
sentative Hepburn, chairman Of the Republican
caucus, that Representative Peter A. Porter. of
the 34th New York District, is not a Republican
and shall not be admitted to the Republican
caucus. which was m, e public in this morn
ing's Tribune, has attracted wide interest in
Republican circles in Washington.
1t declared at the White House to-day
that no doubt existed in the Presidents mind
as to Mr. Porter's politics and that he would be
recognized as the regular Republican member
from his district regardless of what action
might or might not be taken by the Republicans
of the House In fact. there is little doubt that
the administration regards Representative Por-
ter as a far better Republican than the former
Representative, James W. Wadsworth. of anti
meat inspection fame
There seems to have been no doubt in the
New York Assembly. either, as TO Mr. Porter's
Republicanism. for he served two years as a
Republican member. In 1906 Mr.. Porter is be-
lieved TO have received about Is 0OO Republican
votes, as against about 1900 cast for Wads-
worth. He was nominated on a petition signed
by majority of the leading Republicans in his
district. while in the Democratic convention
which indorsed him one-third of the delegates
declined 10 indorse him because he was a Re
publican.
At the election in Mr.. Porters county OF
Niagara last month his friends elected 80 out
Of the 80 Republican members of the conven-
tion, thus indorsing his regularity. and at the
reorganization of the county committee the
Wadsworth faction was completely routed. %
out OF 80 committeeman selected being friends
of Porter and this despite the fact that the
Wadsworth faction had been declaring that they
would control II out Of 80.
No further word has come from the Ttepub-
lican caucus officials of the House, but it is
possible that they may change their mind in
the near future

Montgomery Ala. Nov. 29.-After consul
tation with several Of the states counsel Gov
ernor Conner announced tonight that he was
not yet ready to make any statement regarding
the procedure the state will follow in enforcing
the new railroad laws enjoined by the federal
court.
Several courses are open to the state II may
go before the federal court and fight the in
junction, or it may ask for writ of mandamus
in the state courts to compel the railroads to
put the new rates into effect. The entire ques-
tion now resolves itself around the question Of
jurisdiction. It is contended by many that there
is nothing before the United States court
as the Legislature has repealed the act upon
which the original injunction was granted.
The Louisville & Nashville amendment is set
for hearing on Monday, rule day, under the
practice rules OF the court 1t is expected that
the state will not be ready and will ask for an
extension of time. The amendment is supple
mentary and does not touch the main ques-
ton. Should II be allowed the amendment Will
be attached TO the original bill and the case
will take its regular course, the the
