MUST LIFE BE LIKE THIS?

The other day a lady came to this
office seeking none other than Scoop
himself. 1t wasn't for anything l had
said in this column, but about a story
I wrote in the regular line Of duty as a
reporter of news.
Her son had been arrested previous
ly for infractions of the law. This
time he had broken a law and authori-
ties had warrants for his arrest. The
warrant was in black and white and
the case entered in the books Of one of
the magistrates. Those facts made it
legitimate news for The Republican
and consequently the story appeared
in the paper.
The mother concluded, enormously
Of course, that the paper had grudge
against her and her family and blamed
US for picking them out above scores
of other things that we didn't print,
just to hold them up to public scorn
for our own personal sati-faction.
Nothing could be further from the
truth.
A newspaper is of value only when
it reveals news events and happenings,
whether good or bad.
But the situation brings up many
thoughts.
Take any erring son. He gives no
thought of mis- parents. He goes ahead
and does wrong, not realizing that it
is they whom he hurts. He skips and
leaves them to bear what shame might
be connected with his misdemeanor.
The event becomes news to the news
paper because the misdemeanor affects
number of other people, and there
fore it is their right and to their in
terest to know all such facts.
The parents then blame the news
paper for everything, when sometimes
they are to blame. Not in every case,
of course. Many times the best Of
training fails to keep people from
travelling the wayward path.
Many things happen that cannot be
printed in the newspapers, because of
the danger of libel. The Republican
may be fairly certain that an individual
is selling liquor against the law. But
it can't say that without proof unless
it wants a damage suit on its hands.
1t might be fairly sure that another
person had committed crime, but un-
less he was arrested and charged with
that crime, it cannot be printed.
Likewise there are many happenings
each week that escape those connected
with the publication of the newspaper.
They have not an all-seeing eye and
depend largely upon an all-snooping
nose to find out what's going on. Some
times they get on the wrong scent
sometimes they can't even find scent.
For instance if I knew any funny
event this week l would stop right
now and tell you. AS it is l can only
continue this story, in which I got
called down for something which con-
sidered as my duty.
The lady left the Office. AS she told
me never to print anything about her
family again, told her that if it be-
came matter of record we'd qrint it
just as we did before.
After saying this to each other about
ten times we decided to let it go at
that. We just didn't agree.
If people would stop to realize what
their fellow citizens would think, be-
fore attempting anything out of the
way, there would be lot less grief in
this world.
But life is like that-or is it?
