struck the railing near the river bank
just east Of town and the car turned
over into the river, landing as neatly
upside down as it could be placed by
hands, with Mr.. Bennett under and
completely under water. Mr.. Bennett
states that at this point he turned
around to look into the back seat of
the car and the car drifted to the
right of the road. As he looked back
the car was headed for the railing
and he swung the car, trying to hit
the railing so as not to go into the
river. The right front wheel struck
the last post on the railing, turning
the car over the bank and upside down
into the river, which is about four
feet deep at this point. Mr.. Bennett
was pinned to certain extent by the
bows of the touring car and by great
efforts he was able to practically re-
lease himself to come up for air.
After getting his breath he submerged
again and took the cotterkey from the
bow support which was holding his
legs. After the bows were released
he was able to free himself entirely
from the wreck. Ira Reams happened
along before Mr.. Bennett was free
and offered assistance but was as
sured by Mr.. Bennett that he could
get loose without assistance. Mr..
Reams took him home in his car to
get a set of dry clothes. The over
turned car was noticed by E. E. Han
sen and he Immediately reported it to
people in town, who in turn notified
Mccall of Fromberg,
not knowing at that time if anyone |
was pinned under the car and to as
sit in uprighting it. With the assist
ance of the Wreeker of Humphrey
and Larimore, the car was turned on
its side and the mail that was in the
car came to the top, thus letting the
anxious crowd know whose car it was.
Undersheriff Mccall Immediately mo-
tored to the Bennett ranch to see if |
he had returned home or not 1t was
a great relief to the crowd upon his
return to find that he was at home

THE NEWSPAPER FAKE

"Faking" of any kind is bad business, be-
it is stealing, the holding up bank
going through mans pockets. In fact it is worse,
because the harm done by it is difficult to repair
1t is therefore with considerable satisfaction that
newspapermen everywhere will rejoice in the quick
expose of the who faxed interview with Secre
tary Hoover last week. The summary in
which the guilty party dismissed by his paper in
dicates to the public the responsibility which
papers understand they to their readers and to
those about whom they write.
Undoubtedly there was political plot in con-
nection with the interview 1t merely the work
of misguided person seeking to make scoop and
hoping he could get away with it. The denial of Sec
retary Hoover and Mark Sullivan so prompt and
emphatic, that they have succeeded in preventing any
real harm being done.
The good newspaperman does not have to fake
news and he also knows that it is the cardinal sin in
the fourth estate. Fakng interviews with prominent
persons is particularly dangerous for the individual
who attempts it.
The Florida paper which was imposed upon took
the only course open to it by printing Mr. Hoover's
denial publicly apologizing to him and dismssing the
employee responsible for the taking.
Newspapers dependent upon the honesty of
their employees and the employees in turn depend
ant upon the honesty of the people from whom they
obtain the news. source or newspaperman
who proves dishonest, have no place in the modern
newspaper.
