The Newspaper
and It's Readers.

IL is the earnest desire OF every
reputable newspaper in this country to
eliminate ali errors from its news col
umns and make the paper from day
TO day an accurate and reliable tran
script OF the history of that day
To tell the truth only is the high
standard TO which every responsible
modern journal aspires, and while in
the very nature of things, when there
Is 50 much TO publish and verification
OF reports is practically impossible in
every Instance before publication, mis-
takes cannot always be kept out
nevertheless accuracy the guiding
star OF the management and every re-
porter and other writer on the stan
has his impressed upon him. As a
result the modern newspaper is com
ius more and more TO be a faithful
record OF events and safer guide fo-
public sentiment growing out of those
events.
And it is necessary that this should
be so. for the newspaper of this DAY is
by virtue OF its circulation and its IA
cilitles for newsSathering the most DO
tent OF all moral agencies. and its in.
fuence, diffUsed day after day through
every rank and grade of society. is
practically unreasonable. Its respon-
sibility Is espondingly great. and
whoever OF whatever may help il 70
reach its high ideal OF unVarying ac.
curacy and constsncy to truth is en-
gagged in work of the nrst Importance
to the best interests OF society.
Evidently newspaper readers them
selves are the chief agents to be re-
He'd upon TO this end, for every paper
is quick 10 respond 10 the demands OF
its patrons and the measure of its
worth and accuracy is largely deter
mineS by the character of those pa

A WOMAN PRESIDENT.
Tampa Tribune.
: >>>>> 900 go

why should not woman be Presi-
dent OF the United States?" asks
Israel Zangwill.
If Israel is in earnest and not in
julging in a gentle jest, we will tell
him some OF the reasons.
The duties of president of the Unit
ed States are such that they would not
permit the interference of millinery
openings with affairs of state.
The United States government is
conducted according 10 law and not
according TO fashion-plates.
When the president receives visit
ors, he is obliged, owing to the de-
mands OF official duty. to dismiss each
one with a few words. Is there a wo-
man living who can do anything in d
few words?"
The president is supposed 10 give
some reason for what he does. The
Republic would never be satisfied
with president who does things Just
because"
Again, woman elected President
would spend so much time and thought
planning a gown for Inauguration day
that she wouldn't be able to prepare
an inaugural address.
These are some of the reasons why
woman shouldn't be president. And
a woman not only shouldn't, but she
couldn't and wouldn't.
