quest of Catherine de Medici- On the

enormous sirens. These give out

PUBLIC OPINION AND TRADUcER

Those real men and women who understand the true meaning of citi- zenship and it's responsibilities, those wto honestly strive for better condi- tions do not prate about grating and corruption for the sake of politics. If they know of grating, or of crooked ness on the part of officials, they take their evidence to grand juries, or those who have authority to punish for crime. They try to get results. They do not idly or for sinister pur- poses make charges that involve the honesty or integrity of officials. They do not attempt to poison the public mind through blatant harranguing, whispered conversations or printed regulations.
 Honorable men and women do not ruin regulations. Only towards make charges yelled )and indefinite that they might escape the laws against libel and slander. Brave men fight in the open-and they protect reputa- tions unless the public interest or de- cency demands exposure and then they prove their case in courts where those charged may exercise freemen's right to defend themselves.
 Assasins shoot from ambush in such manner that those whom they would destroy cannot protect them selves. Cowardly politicians use the inuendo as an ambush and falsehoods as their weapons They are in public what the scandal monger is in society.
 However, the American people have been educated in the hard struggle for success in the course of their daily toll and in the great school of elf-government, and they quickly spot demagogues, towards and pol troons. They can distinguish between tie false and the true. They know when they are being honestly served. They might disagree with honest ser wants, and vote them out of power and place, because of differences of opinion, but they rarely do it at the behest of the political bushwhacker and character assassin, and undesir- able citizens. Public opinion almost invariably in the end arrives at just conclusions and it usually requires traducers to prove their charges Juneau Empire.
