" Some people harbor a very peculiar idea in reference
to the publication of news items and a newspaper's duty to
the-public. A recent, issue of this paper carried an Assocint
ed Press 'dispatch and editorial comment dealing with the
tin deposits of Douglas and Josephine counties, PV6fessor 'C.
E. Newton, dean of the school of mines of the Oregon Agri
cultural college, being responsible for the BtiilenVerit that the
mysterious white metal round in southern Oregon showed
; signs of having been ."doctored" by various assayers after
the ore had left 'the mines.; As to the correctness of Prof.
Newton's statement it is riot for this paper to vouch, but ill;;
fact that he holds a position of importance in one of the lcad
Sng. educational Institutions 'of Oregon is good and sufficient
' reason for giving his utterances publication. We hope the
, professor is entirely wrong in h!s deductions. But, the point
. thfe paper wants to bring out is the fact that it does no
. suppress any new item coming from legitimate and authen
tic sources it never has, and it never will. We do not wahl

a religious unity similar to the new

" Let us not forget that it Is a

" Tho Ark of the Covenant' minis

ple David, as wo hav'o already
seen, was a strange mixture ot

would bo folly to 'suggest that- na

Religion, as the' word suggests,
is a great binding power, and It Is
largelv In the simplification aud

of the people that we. 'create the
conditions for sound national prog
