too self-evident for formal statement.

teresting object lesson In newspaper

contemporaries. presumably quite by
mistake, announced In its morning ls-
sue the date of President Taft's forth
coming visit to Omaha as September
80 instead OF September 20. The Bee
had the date correct in its morning
issue, and yet this mistake was not
corrected, but was carried through
subsequent afternoon editions of the
paper referred to. Not only that, but
the afternoon pirate sheet. which daily
steals its news with the scissors, got
hold of the wrong paper and repro.
duced the wrong date instead OF the
right one. If anyone needs further
elucidation we will draw a diagram.
