Honesty in Journalism

People or interests who own newspapers some times lose sight of the fact that the business of the newspaper is to report the news as faithfully as possible This means that both sides of q question shall be reported That is what makes the Literary Digest so deservedly popular.
 The prevailing policies of newspapers seem to be the apparent belief that they meant to give only the view of news held by the owner or advertisers and by culling or censurng the news to warp the opinions of the reading publ1c
 The nearest example of such dishonest news paper reporting is the Juneau Empire. Many examples of this species of dishonesty (the own cured while the legislature has been sitting Such half-truths, colorful attempts at reporting and sending of dispatches to outside newspapers are extremely dangerous and pernicious.
 We will take but two examples of what we mean the first was the literacy test bill, and the second, the Soldiers Land Bonus memorial:
 In the report of the Gteracy bill, the Empire reports at length the strongest arguments of it's friends, smoothing over rough points and con- meeting arguments and exaggerating the inter- est and support of the audience This paper passed over without mention that extraordinary incident in which the Hon. E. M. Policy told the House that whoever voted for the bill thereby voted for corrupt politics. A faithful report of this insulting statement by this amateurish statesman would hurt "the cause' for it is plain that the interests for whom the Empire is spokesman have further use for this gentleman elected by Indian constituents.
 Nor did the Empire report the well considered reasons why Indians did not support the Hon. H. R. Shepard for their spokesman William L.. Paul. stated very plainly on the floor ot the
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-08-15


 ant Indians could not support man who had so little regard for the 18th amendment that he must need the entire sidewalk and that he must insult the guests of the Gastineau Hotel by the filthy language which that member used in their lobby Men who create law should obey the law.
 In the report of Senate proceedings the Elm pire says nothing of the cogent arguments based on sound reason against the Foster Bill, but makes a large point of speeches for the bill. We will be content here merely to note that no at tempt was made by any Senator supporting the bill to answer the speech of Senator Dunn.
 In the matter of the soldiers bonus bill the Empire records only the speeches for the memor- ial We heard Senator Diamond and Senator Dunn, the former making his usual plausible speech of glttering generalities. When Sena- tor Dunn got up and said that he soldier and told his experience when he answered his country's call in 1898 without the interven- ton of draft he took such high position that no one could assail him. No one there told the Senator that he was unpatriotic and retold the great. sacrifices of the Alaska drafted men for the Senator told that he volunteered, he was glad to go, that he did not get $3O month eith er and got no bonus, nor did he expect to get 1t.
 He summed up his entire argument in this statement: q am in favor of giving the ex- soldier 32O acres if that is what he wants; but I am against script. Those who understand what script means will know what l mean and further explanation is not needed"
 No one answered this speech for the evils of script are too well known to need exposition.
 The argument against the bonus memorial IS not sign that we against the ex-soldier. This country has learned painful lesson by the mistakes of the civil war and the script that fol- lowed. The rewards that wish to give to cx-soldiers should go to them and not to specu lators. And we but show regard for the patriotism of the ex-soldier when ask that he take his reward in such form that it will not hurt his country
 "When the House passed the Soldier Bonus land grant memorial, it thereby gave three cheers for Alaska veterans of the World War; when the Senate cut off the last 16 words of the House draft it gave Alaska ex-service men the 'razz'," the Empire says were the words of an interested spectator.
 People who heard the debate will know that such reports are the veriest untruth and will do more to undermine good government than the most flaming charges of any "red."

EXPRESSES THANKS

Robert F. Rockwell, lieutenant gov

of September 10, to Mr.. Stearns of
the Independent, as follows:
u wish at this time to thank you
and through you the good people OF
Delta for their interest and support in
my candidacy for governor. 1t was
the first time, within my recollection.
when the Western Slope had an op-
portunity Of placing a man who has
been resident here and whose inter
ests are Western Slope interests in the
Executive chair.
u think it particularly unfortunate
that other issues and misunderstand-
inss were injected into the campaign,
which temporarily blinded many sin
cere voters to the real issues at stake.
u feel highly complimented at the
loyal support which I received from
the entire Western Slope, and particu-
larly from the county in which l live
and which have had the privilege of
representing in the legislature in the
past eight years"
81 have no personal disappointment
over the defeat which we sustained
in the Primary election. my only re-
Erer being that l shall not be able to
serve i'm the future as I have during
the past eight years what I consider
the best interests Of the Western
SIope.
"WIl you kindly through your paper
eHpra to the voters of your COM
muni'E my sincere appreciation for
the support which they have given me
not only in the campaign just closed
bur i'm the eight years previous.
