An actual incident that happened
on well known exchange, morning
daily, illustrates abou: the way the
thing works where copy is delayed A
country correspondent sent in his reg
ular letter the news that a certain
Mrs. Rook had been run over at GER
tain railroad crossing that morning.
His story ran along something like
this; "The victim was taken to the
---- hospital where she is now suf-
fering intense agony"
Shortly after the correspondent sent
his letter, Mrs. Rook died. There was
still time 20 have got off supplement
tary letter, which would have reached
the Office Of the paper about 6 p. M,
and would have been in time to have
given the editor a chance to make the
needed changes carefully.
But the correspondent delayed send
ing word, and |. slipped his mind un-
til it was time TO go to bed. Then he
called up the Office by telephone, and
informed the editor that Mrs. Rook
had died, and that the item must be
changed.
1t happened 20 be very busy night,
and the force was being driven by
some emergency at top speed. The
editor rummaged around among a pile
of proofs, but things were in such dis
order that he could not find the one
he wanted He went out into the
composing room, and undertook 20
make the needed correction by reading
from the type, an always hazardous
proceeding if one is in a hurry.
AS the result of his haste, the dis
patch came out next morning reading
something like this, which was not
particularly pleasing 20 the relatives
of Mrs. Rook:
Mrs. j. E. Rook was run over this
at the crossing of the X. & z.
railroad. She was taken to the Mercy
where she died at p. m. She
is now suffering intense agony, etc,
etc.
Moral, any newspaper copy should
be delivered to the Office at The earliest
possible moment, and the quicker il
gets in, the freer from from errors it
will come out.-Rutland News

THE LAST HOURS
BEFORE GOING TO PRESS

ANY person serving newspaper in
any capacity usually is made TO realize
the need Of getting copy into the Office
on time. Occasional correspondents,
however, and :he public generally, do
not see why their copy should not be
printed in full, even though it is
brought in at the last moment

The Decision.

The vote of more than two to one
to retain the antiquated and wasteful
councilmanic form of government at
the election Monday is conclusive, yet
the advocates of the change to COM
mission form have nothing with which
to reproach themselves in the effort
They were unOrganized and, having
neither political nor financial inter-
ests of personal nature at stake, had
no campaign funds.
On the other hand, the present city
government, with it's long list of en-
ployes, combined with the Socialists,
seemed to be amply provided with
money to make an aggressive cam
paign.
Parties with personal interests in
the continuance of the present system
succeeded in befogging the only issue
before the people, that of providing
a superior form of city government,
by the circulation of misstatements
calculated to deceive, most of which
were considered too absurd for seri-
GUS notice. But they worked.
Many good people were led to be-
lieve that the commission form meant
to practically nullify the prohibition
law in this city, as we'll as the laws
against gambling and prostitution. In
spreading this report credulous min
lister of the gospel was found who
