Giving Out
Reliable News.

The attitude Of the railroads and big
concerns has changed materially in re-
cent years in regard to giving to the
representatives OF the press reliable
information. For many years 1t was
q practical impossibihty to get the
facts from high officials OF railroads
concerning wrecks. or accidents on
their roads.
The Missouri Pacific railroad went a
far way to give the facts when there
was a wreck and the Louisville
Courier Journal explaining 1t, says:
In this wreck seven persons were
killed and 20 were injured. On such
occasions railroad men generally are
exasperatingly noncommunicative TO
representatives of the press. In the
present instance there was the fullest
publicity. No oficial refused to talk.
The president Of the road. from his
office in st. Louis. gathered by tele-
graph the news of the accident and
wrote therefrom STORY" of more than
n thousand words, which he gave out
TO the ST. Louis papers. In addition
he ordered his assistants to wire the
STORY" to all the daily newspapers, big
and little. In Missouri Pacific territory.
IneTG are IldUy HSWSpdPCA6 III NANN
territory that cannot be reached by
the Missouri Pacific wires. but they
got the presidents thousand-word
special, nevertheless, with the tels-
graph tolls prepaid.
In the oflcial account OF the wreck
there was no effort to shield anybody
from blame or to shift the response
bflity. 1t was stated that the engineer
and conductor of the freight train
seemed to be responsible" for the
wreck; that they apparently forgot"
about the passenger train having the
right of way; both men had had
twelve hours for sleep and meals"
since their last run; the night was
clear and there were mo dangerous
curves near the scene of the accident.
In further pursuance OF It's now
policy the dispatch adds that "the Mis-
souri, Pacific sent telegraphic notices
of the accident to the families and
relatives of the killed and injured
Taken all in all, this is a remarkable
innovation. It is complete departure
from former methods, but it is SEN
sible and right, and will meet the ap-
probation of newspapers and the peo-
pie generally.
The railroad officials took some time
10 learn that the newspapers must
have some account and that it is better
to have a correct one than an mac
curate one. Reporters sent out to
cover stories get the best and most re-
liable information that is obtainable
and the railroad officials are in most
cases better qualified to give it than
any others.
Newspapers always give the best &C
counts OF all happenings that they can
get, and when they are not accurate
IN nearly every case It is because some
of the facts are withheld from the re-
porters.

May Congressman Reside
Outside Districts?

An interesting question was brought
up in Alabama one day this week when
n state official offered the opinion that
the ONCE Of congressman was one of
those positions which might be filled
by a man living in another part OF the
state than, the district which he rep
resents.
Another extremely interesting part
about the information is-if such
really is the case-why have the jack
sonville politicians failed to learn that
It is possible? This is not written for
the benefit OF those politicians, how
ever.
AS a matter of fact, there is a pos
sibility that it is possible for a con-
gresham to reside in another congress
sional district than the one he repre-

In Making Boundary Line Survey
Stakes We're Placed Four
Miles Too Far to the
Eastward.

Jefferson City, No., March o.
How would you feel if you were
to wake up some morning and
find that your $75,0OO postoffice
had been moved to another town;
that your newspaper had pulled
up stakes and gone away; that
your waterworks had disappeared
and you had no fire protection;
that a new $500, 600 manual train
ing school which your city
thought it had a deed for was
not yours, but belonged to an
other city; that your city library
was gone and one-half of your
biggest business houses had de-
serted you?
This shock is impending for
Pittsburg, Kan, citizens as a re-
suit of the report that the Miss
ouri Legislature is preparing to
ask the Kansas Legislature to
join with it in determining the
proper boundry between the two
states. 1t is said that in max
ing the boundary survey years
ago, the stakes were Intentionally
misplaced four miles further east
than they should have been by
the surveyor. who had a grudge
against Missouri. A boundary
stone recently dug up bears out
the statement.
If it is found that the line is
misplaced, Pittsburg will be cut
in two and the above institutions
will no longer be in Kansas, but
be a part of Pittsburg, Mo.
