The nation will with President Taft
deprecate and condemn any attempt
to array the west against the east.
There is no such division in the hearts
of the people. Their interests are one
and indiviSible and never before in
the presence of an Americanism which
knows no sectional lines, was any such
attempt so indefensible. Governor
Johnson of Minnesota, in his Seattle
speech, emphasized alleged differences
and spoke contemptuously of the de
nomination of the east" In doing this
he displayed narrowness of vision
that puts him out of the presidential
class. President Taft fittingly re.
proved such sectionalism. In this he
will receive the approval of the peo-
pie of the west most heartily.
1t is to be hoped, for the sake of the
newspaper profession in general, that
an article printed in the Bloomfield
Monitor last week is not a sample of
its week-in-and-week-out style. How
any paper could so grossly slop over
and make so many misstatements is
hard to conceive. The Monitor at
tributes column of slush to The Nor
folk News, claiming that the article is
quoted from The News, which, as a
matter of fact, The News never saw
until it read the Monitor. The article
In question makes sport of the report
ed find of gold near Bloomfield. All
that The News ever printed about the
Bloomfield gold find was the news
item telephoned to this Office by w.
II. Mullin of that city.
