The Difference

The difference between ethical standards OF party organs
and independent newspapers illustrated by the treatment
accorded H. G. Wells author and pubcst by the various
papers.
The Portland Oregonan party organ refused 10 PriI
Mr. Wells articles the Washington conference a1ter nav
ing contracted for them declaring that lnasmuch as WeS
opinions did agree with the Oregonans editorial pohce
the paper would print hem lest they Jeopardlze tne
success of the party program.
The London Daily Mail also party organ, wired Nr
Wells that if he did not adopt reasonable tone to"o
France the editor sha be reluctantly Obliged TO as
continue publication" of the articles, to which Mr. Wes
naturally replied that he could not change his opinions 70
please the Mail.
The London Evening Standard declares that the Wnoe
value Of Mr. Wells opinions consisted in the fact that tney
were Mr. Wellss Some people with Mr. Wes otners
are violently at variance with him. but the great number Oh
people care very little what the Daily Mail thinks on any
subject and care great deal for what Mr. Wes tnhks
and it would be fatal his standing if his views were oored
by editorial suggestion
The New York World, which brought Mr. Wells to the
conference cables it's resentment of the Daily Mali inter-
ference and wires Wells that he Mail guilty OF grave
discourtesy in attempting to give Inc ohy
the World has to make Of you is to write Wha
Won regard as the truth and that you have been doing
There is this difference between the party organ and the
ndependent newspaper-the former prints only what IL
as in harmony with party policies using its news
columns for propaganda purposes while the atters news
columns have no policy except the publication OF the truth
