They lmow-he can never be elected and see a democratic governor in the offing if Joseph could win the republican nomination. josepn, on tne other hand, recognizes ability in- his party conxpetition. . Yesterday he told a La Grnnde man "if you can!t vote for me, vote; for Harry Corbett." From which we .would gather he has had fewer fights with Corbett than wiin ptner aspiring candidates.' ::-'" .

The criticism, is,, in miiny instances, well deserved. Some schools .are fairly fioo'd, other mediocre at best. The chief lack - in their graduates-, is one of -personality and of. unfamiliarity with the, practical side . of newspaper work. A good newspaper person must not only, have the proverbial "nose for news" but must exercise tact, courtesy and persistence in following it. ;,Too frequently these young reporters 'are graduated with an abundance of theory but with practice of the stereotyped variety. Good reporting means much more than good writ ing," yet they are seldom carried Much beyond writing mechanics. Perhaps they cannot bo. Newspapere may expect too much, may look for a qualification that can be had only through experience. In any event, journalism schools are probably no worse than those training men and women for other vocations. They could all be better and all much worse.
