All editors have the right to be mis-.
taken as to opinions, for it is pretty
hard for all to see alike, and all think
alike. and when two differ on matter
of opinion both may be honest and
one is certain to be wrong. But there
are some matters of fact about which
there ought to be no mistake. Great
harm is sometimes done by misstate.
ments of fact. The State Capital say s
tina: the new tariff bill increased the
tariff on such articles Of luxury as
wool, and decreased it on such neces-
sary articles as anchors and the like.
As matter of fact the new tariff did
not increase the tariff on wool. You
can say almost anything you wish
about what the tariff has done, and
few people will be in a position to dis
pute you, for few people know what it
has done. As q matter of fact the
wool growers got together not long ago
and formed an association to advance
the price Of wool. Goods have been
sold at advanced prices and the repre-
sentation made thatit was owing to the
increased tariff when the tariff had not
been changed at all. There is enough
prejudice and unadvised comment in
the country without fostering them
with misrepresentation in the prints.
