CELEBRITIES AS REPORTERS.
Neither "the nose for News
Nor Legs to Follow It,"
Louisville Courier-Journal.

LOUISVILLE COuIleT-JOuTnd.
If the working journalist who plods
along as industriously as the ant and often
as anonymously as the coral insect, fears
that he will eventually be supplanted by the
celebrity whose name is a thing with
which to %conjure, let him look over the
files Of the press covering the period Of
the Chicago convention. He will see that
the news was written by the newspaper
reporter and that the much-advertised
celebrity-politician, novelist or what not
who went to Chicago to write something
every day to fit around his picture in the
columns of the newspapers employing him,
did not contribute greatly to the sum total
of information as the little events Of the
great convention followed one another into
pages of history.
with the exception OF the occasional
newspaper man who has won distinction as
a finder or distributor Of facts the cele-
brity makes an Indifferent reporter. The
first requirements for news writing are a
nose for news and legs to follow it. Cen
orally speaking. the celebrity lacks the one
and is entirely too great a parsonage to
employ the other. He writes a great deal
Of copy" that is more or less interesting

the day, which is written by the reporter

pen tell in plain, unvarnished tale Of what
is going forward.
The best correspondent or reporter is the
man who makes news writing his calling
and not the author Of a popular novel or
the hero of a political campaign. A daily
newspaper is published 1865 times a year.
II it were not equipped to report a political
convention without calling into requisition
the services Of celebrities or novelists or
"muckrakers,' or to eport a criminal
trial without employing dramatists. il
would not be able TO report properly many
occurrences that require an equal degree OF
intelligence and industry. Is ii not an adj
mission Of weakness rather than an adj
veTtisement of enterprise for a newspaper
to announce that IT has secured the serv-
ices OF some great man who knows little
or nothing about news writing, and cares
less, to supplement its press service re-
ports? Would not a better advertisement
be an announcement something like this.
This newspaper will not employ the au-
thor Of any one Of the six best sellers or
the governor OF any state or the mayor Of
any city to report political conventions,
nor will It employ a chief Of police. a
former detective, a writer of melodramas
or an Anna Katherine Green to report any
murder trial that may be docketed at any
time. but will depend upon its reporters
for reports and its correspondents for cor
respondence."
This is the policy OF many Of the most
informing and most influential journals.
