munity II has been my pleasure
to note the Improvement rs we'll as
growth Of your paper since you have
been directing its affairs, and as the
city grows and your opportunities
enlarge. ! am sure this imT royem ent
will be continued.
The unique relationship between
newspapers and the public permits
newspapers TO mould public opinion
10 a remarkable degree Most people.
especially those living il our large
cities. read nothing but newspapers.
and hold 70 the opinions therein ex-
pressed. IL seems obvious. there
fore, that the first duty OF news
papers is TO print the truth. and
avoid clothing rumors and opinions
in the garb OF facts thereby stultify-
ing themselves and often danger
ously deceiving unthinking and poor
~ educated people. Facts are hard
TO get. and newspapers must GO &c
press, but they can and should diff
ferentiate in their text between facts
and rumors or opinions.
