Newspaper Honesty"

The Observer printed on Friday an
article on the above subject from the
Bamberg Herald, in which it was
stated that several newspapers had
printed, with an Athens, Ga, date
line, an article on BE Honest even
with the Railroads. protesting that
the railroads are being under
paid by the government for carry
ing the mails. The Herald said that
this article did not originate with the
Athens paper, as it purported to do,
but was sent out by the office Of the
Southern railway in Atlanta, Ga,
3 where it appears that a reg
ular press bureau is maintained"
This incident illustrates forcibly
the secret workings of railroads and
newspapers, and serves as an un-
answerable argument against the
free pass system, and against any
sort or form of obligation Of news
papers to these great corporations.
The Bamberg Herald does not tell
anything that newspaper men did
not know before; but it was probably
new to many other persons that the
Southern keeps press bureau" in
Atlanta, from which articles eulogis-
tic and commendatory of the South
ern are sent out to newspapers, and
that these articles appear in many
newspapers as regular news items.
Here is one of these articles now,
right before our eyes, published with
an Atlanta headline, and dated Aug.
2Sth. II has all the appearances of
a real news item; the public has no
means of knowing, but it is nothing
more nor less than a puff of the
Southern railroad, written and fur
nished to the paper by the Southern
road itself, and published in the
newspaper, not because it has any
news value, but because the news
paper has a free pass from the road
and is thus under obligation to pub
lish it, Perhaps some of our readers
will recognize the article referred to
from these few lines: Aug. IS
To help South Carolina Producers
Find Markets for the Products of the
Soil, is the slogan of the market de-
partment of the Southern railway
and so on for six inches of space.
There is nothing wrong in. the
Southern railways helping the farm
ers, and nothing wrong in the news
papers saying so; the objection is to
this secret subsidizing process, by
which the public are deceived into
believing that the commendatory ar
ticles are spontaneous on the part Of
the newspapers, and are genuine
matters of news. They are nothing of
the kind. If the newspapers we're
honest" with the public they would
print these press bureau" letters in
such a way, if they published them
at all, that the public would know
their origin-would know that they
are furnished by the railroad itself.

Thomaston, Me, dated July 4, 1918.
Crockett was one of the men who
worked with Mulha1l in the fight to re-

The doctors letter was in part;
II have just read your confession IN

There are some large things brewing
and there is every indication that in our
tariff campaign we have with us the ma

Schwertman wrote Mulhall September
5, 1907, bringing in the name of Mr..
Taft, then secretary of war.

SENATOR SCORES
STOCK EXCHANGE
In Speech, Calls Wall Street "Monte
Carlo of American
Finance"

Washington, July Ex-senator Thorn
as, Democrat, of Colorado, in speech
yesterday called the New York stock ex-
change the "most prodigious gambling
hell' of any age, and the Monte Carlo
of American finance"
at is the swindlers' paradise" he
continued ut is huge vampire that
sucks the blood from the arteries of in
dustry. 1t is an unineorporated, ire
sponsible monstrosity beyond the pale
of laws Ii is the antthesis of fair deal
ing and common honesty. 1t has sancti-
fed speculation. 1t is the most per-
nicious and corroding influence in the
land.
IF disaster, whose coming is now so
freely predicted, shall overtake us in
the near future, it will be caused not by
the enactment OF the pending tariff bill,
but by the same Influences which pro-
duced it in 1898 | do not say they
will do it. ! do not think they will do
it. They have no partnership with the
administration. That has been dis
solved by the people"
