NEWSPAPER EYING

One of the worst ofenses the
Chicago newspapers commit is
the deliberate Misrepresentation
of facts, the plain English for
which is downright lying.
No matter what the private
opinions of the publisher may be,
a newspaper should give its read
ers the truth. If the editor wants
to express his own opinion Of that
truth there is no objection to
that, but he should give his read
ers the plain, unvarnished truth
IN his news columns, so that they
may have chance to form their
own conclusions.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-05-10


For years the people Of. Chi
cago, most whom want to be
fair and just, have had to form
their opinions on information
given them by the trust papers
that was deliberately intended to
deceive While they might be en-
tirely honest in their opinions, it
was. possible for those opinions
to be wrong, because they were
based on false and misleading In
formation.
In the newspaper lockout, the
Illinois Central strike and in
every other disagreement be-
tween employers and employees,
especially where the employers
happened to spend money for adj
VeFtising IN the newspapers, the
newspapers have colored the
news and resorted to downright
Ees IN ordeT to get the people to
jump to wrong conclusions.
This is not true alone of labor
matters, but of other news in
which the interests of the pub
HStTSthen1selRes or their Big adj
vertBeFs-sTe involved.
Being tightly organized and
working, together so far as the
labor Unions and the public are.
concerned if is easy for the pub
fishers to tell the same story or
to jeintly suppress or color news
to suit their combined purpose.

States troops in Colorado is being

Army officers here are specu-
lating on the outcome. 1t may be
that Washington has finally de-
cided on Intervention. 1t may be
that the United States govern
ment has decided to interfere if
one side or the other should win
the coming battle of Bermejillo.
There has been ne hint as to
which sides victory would mean

But this is certain. Madero, in
his revofation, WIS Backed by
American capitalists such as

Ryan did not spend his money

would have spent his money IN

Tiled Bathrooms,
With Parquetnsy Floors.

THE problem of warm bathroom floors has
been successfully solved by the builders of
''High View homes. While the side walls
of the bathrooms of High View" homes
are lined with milk white tile, the floors are Of
finest parquetry, overlying second diagonal
flooring Such floors are not only far warmer,
but just as waterproof and durable though
they were made of tile.
The bathrooms of High View" homes are
but an indication of what you get in every other
room in these homes. High View" homes are
the result of careful planning and conscientious
building.
You have to buy High View homes you
know, before they completed. Every one
finds an owner before it is ready for occupancy.
Don't overlook this fact; and if you want to cut
out useless rent waste in the near future you
had better make your purchase arrangements
now.
We only began selling High View homes
last fall Already over 100 are sold. The rea-
son you haven't bought one is evidently due to
the fact that you have failed to see them as yet
If such is the case the best thing for you to do is
to make an immediate inspection. A trolley car
will take you to these homes from any section
of the city within few minutes time.

OHIO DEMOCRATS SOLID
IN BOOMING GOV. HARMON
Wallace D. Yaple Says Buckeye
Executive Is Real Progressive
and Very Popular.

Wallace d. Yaple, a member Of the
Ohio state liability of awards commits
sion, arrived here from Columbus, Ohio,
today to attend q conference of the rep
resentatives of similar organizations
from many states. While Mr.. Yaple de-
clared that his visit was positively devoid
of political significance, he did not hesi-
tate to discuss the candidacy Of Gov.
Harmon for the presidential nomination.
Il am convinced" he said. that the
support Gov. Harmon will get in Ohio in
the event Of his nomination will be even
more cordial than he received when he
was a candidate for governor. The main
reason for this is that the people of Ohio
believe that the man who has made a
an equally good President of the United
States.
Praise From Opponents.
''The fact that he has made good
governor and instituted many reforms is
admitted even by his opponents. His ad
ministration demonstrates that his pro-
gressiveness is Of the brand that per-
forms instead of promises. as is attest
ed by the many measures that have be-
come laws in Ohio during his two terms
as governor, and which have made
Ohios government more nearly a gov
ernment Of equal privileges to all and
special privileges to none than it has
ever been before.
Among these progressive measures
may be mentioned the / per cent
tax law, which is the most popular
reform and one of the most equitable
laws ever enacted in Ohio: the working
mans compensation law and the wom-
ans nine-hour law. both of the latter of
which have been declared constitutional
by recent decisions Of the supreme court.
Delegation Will Be Solid.
"Ohio will. of course send solid dele
cation to Baltimore for Gov. Harmon. and
the members of that delegation will in
vfte the attention of the delegates of
other states to the record Of Harmon as
Governor of Ohio, and If that record is
carefully inspected he will require no
further recommendation for the nomina-
tion.''
