How News is Scrutirized

The Republican does often find it necessary to explain what has appeared in it's columns. It does in this instance only for the purpose of making known to its readers the religious and regard for absolute accuracy employed in the preparation of for publication. There appeared in this paper yesterday morning the story of three young turkeys which succumbed the rgors of our climate the morning of June 24, St Johns Day. The porter who discovered this apparently unreasonable piece of news, a reckless member of the staff, in with triumphant announcement that three young turkeys the property of resident in the part of town had been frozen stiff"
 A conference of the staff was held on this import announcement and prayerful consideration given the manner of breaking this the world. However it might be done. strain going to be put upon the creduty of the readers of The Republican, It was first proposed by timorous and conscientious member that The Republican make of the story at all, but turn it Harry Welch along with the burden of proof and ex- planation, be used by him in advertising Phoenix summer resort, delightful for humans but little too rigorous for tender turkeys.
 But bolder spirits of the staff, recognizing the value of this turkey tragedy insisted upon the of the story, framed preserve the repu- taton of The Republican for strict accuracy and the reporters relation of it gone in conference word by word.
 Objection made and sustained as to the pression frozen stiff" That would imply consd- erable of congellaton and careful nvestiga- tion of the records since the establishment of the weather bureau service in Phoenix did not disclose such degree of frost in this vicinity any June 24 The word stiff in conjunction with frozen" therefore eliminated by of a majority l. The reporter who had the turkeys and felt of them still swore that they stiff Their rigid condi- to rigor mortis
 The word frozen" then taken up and it decided that it could be used with authority though account of popular msconception of it's meaning rather ignorance of all its meanings the use of the word in this connection might be misleading To freeze may be to become chilled suffer per haps fatally, from sensation of cold to suffer perish from the abstraction of heat. Here be abundant authority for the of the word. It all the heat from turkey of tender days.
 Water congeals at temperature of 32 F. and it pointed that other liquids congea only at much lower temperatures The word "congear start ed the minority reporter again and he renewed his argument in favor of the restoration of stiff" If such variety of temperatures produced congella- tion, it not possible that young turkeys would congeal at say 6 70 r? The ma ajority, however declined to reopen that phase cf the discussion and turkeys had been frozen.
 In conclusion suppose that publicity will be given to this event by the newspapers of Yuma and
