The newspaper man is either an eye witness of tbe things of which he writes or be takes the statements of others and writes out the details from them. He can not be everywhere that news may develop, and it follows that much of bis iniormatiou is derived from other persons. If the latter are truthful and intelligent, the. news will withstand the test of Investigation, but if it is of the fake order contradiction and annoyance follow. This being true, the person who imparts information to a reporter should give the facts carefully In all cases. The law provides very severe punishment for the person who wilfully misleads a newspaper mau as to the facts of any matter which may be pub lished. Brock way ville Record. New Officers Initiated.
