TWO KINDS There are newspapers
OF NEWS that willprint any .sort
of news as long as it has a kick to
it," In former years such periodicals
were referred to as "yellow." Nowa
days they are not spoken of as being
of any particular kind, for so the
world has changed. There are also
newspapers that will only print news
that they have verified. In former
days people did not think such pa
pers worthy of special distinguish
ment in speech these days they are
referred to as "conservative." With
the reading public, it is largely a
matter of "you pays your money and
you takes your choice."
Some people prefer "news with a
kick to it," whether it be truthful or
not. They can usually get their pref
erence satisfied. Other folk prefer
what are known as "conservative"
papers, because they like to believe
that the matter put before them has
at least reasonable grounds of truth
fulness. There is a general idea in
the public mind that all newspapers
are liars, but this is incorrect. It may
perhaps be admitted that all news
papers do not print all the news, or
give more emphasis to some news
than to other varieties; but even at '
that, the great majority of newspa-'
pers and news writers try to be as '
truthful as circumstances will per-
mit. And when they do not know, or
have not the means of finding out,:
whether an important news item is
absolutely correct or not, they say
"it is reported," or "it appears to be
true that," or make use of some other
qualifying phrase. Readers of the
daily press who followed the accounts
of the Titanic disaster will readily re
call which naners used these oualifv-
ing phrases during the days of doubt,
and which papers did not.
All of which is a foreword. The
Enterprise rather prides itself on be
ing a "conservative" newspaper. It
likes to print all the news of interest
to the locality that it can procure,
but it also takes all means that lie
within its power to verify such
news as comes to it, either through
regular channels or through unusual
ways. This is why this paper did not
shriek to Heaven, recently, that there
had been an attempt made to bribe a
juror in a circuit court trial. Publi
cation of what pretended to be au
thentic information about this alleged
attempted bribery in a Portland pa

Dillman&Howland
Opposite Court House
per has already caused county offi
cials some embarassment, and now
bids fair to be the subject of official
inquiry. While no names were men
tioned in the Portland newspaper that
reflected upon the integrity of the
circuit court jury panel, regretable'j
reflection was cast upon one juror in
particular through gossip, and upon
all the jurors by inuendo.
Citizens who are summoned to
serve upon juries are performing a
duty for the state. Oftentimes they
are giving up private business for a
merely nominal financial return that
will in no way repay them for the
loss of their own time and effort. Yet
be it said to the credit of American
manhood that most men are proud to
be called to jury service, and gladly
sacrifice their personal business and
time for such duty. Therefore, it is
particularly unfair to even hint that
a juror has been guilty of irregularity
or has even listened to the suggestion
of dishonesty. No newspaper should
give space to such a report until the
matter has been explicitly investi
gated and verified. No news writer
should send in such a report to his
office unless he is absolutely sure of
his facts. It is better, when doubt
exists, to say nothing at all, rather
than to blot the character of a juror
with a half-baked . allegation that
there has been irregularity.
The Enterprise does not believe
that any juror on the present circuit
court panel would for a moment lis
ten to any suggestion of irregularity.
It knows most of the men to be
staunch citizens of the community,
and to be honest and straightforward
in every particular. As to those oth
ers with whom it has not had the
good fortune to become acquainted,
it has heard of only in the" highest
terras. It therefore joins in the gen
eral regret that any reflection has
been cast upon the panel as has re
sulted from the item published in a
Portland paper a paper which must
have been too eager to get "news
with a kick to it" to consider the ser
iousness of the charges it was voic
ing. A Progressive Century.

eart to Heart
Talks
By JAMES A. EDGERTON
KNOW YOUR OWN SOUL.
Human nature is much the same
now that it was in the time of Soc
rates. The motto of the ancients.
"Know thyself," is as much needed in
our day as in theirs.
Tennyson has expressed it as the
trinity of "self knowledge, self rever
ance. self control."
It is the first duty of every man and
woman to get acquainted with his or
her own soul.
You are a world in yourself, a world
of remembrances, a world of experi
ences, a world of wisdom, a world of
forces.
Why not tap these storehouses and
use them in your life and in your
work?
If you do not. understand yourself
nobody else will understand you.
All education, all activity, all expres
sion, are but methods of finding your
self. You are not a creature of heredity,
of environment or of accident. You
are of divine lineage; you are greater
than circumstances.
Kings have lacked the facilities and
comforts that are yours to command.
You have knowledge which" the great
est of the ancients lacked. You live
in an age that offers every opportuni
ty and inceutive to success.
You know or may know something
of all lands and all rates, of the se
crets of natural forces, of new ways
of doing the work of the world. Why
not. then, know that which is closest
to you your own being? '
When -you know yourself you will
know your work.
When you believe in yourself others
will believe in you.
When you know your own powers
you can use them to some noble end.
I do not mean that you should spend
your life in idle introspection. Knowl
edge must be translated into action.
I only mean that yon should not
work in the dark; that you should In
telligently use the forces at your com
mand. Awaken your soul. Awaken it by
religion, by poetry, by travel, by
thought, by broader culture, by any
necessary means, but awaken it.
Throw your whole self Into the
game. Don't be afraid.. Have faith
and purpose and energy and you will
arrive.-
Know yourself and te yourself.
Know the best that is In you and ex
press that best in yoar life and in
your work.

We Are Still Standing
on the Threshold of
American History
United States Has
Always Been a
World Power
By JOHN BASSETT MOORE.
Counselor to the State
Department
OTHING could be
more erroneous than
the supposition that
the United States
a result of certain
changes, in its habits, SUD
DENLY become within the
past few years a world power.
The United States has in
reality ALWAYS BEEN, IN
THE FULLEST AND HIGH
had, as
EST SENSE, A WORLD POWER, and the record of its achieve
ments in the promotion and spread of liberal and humane doctrine is
one in which no American need hesitate to own a patriotic pride.
The advent of the United States of America was of a significance
which, although not nnfelt at the time, has in the nature of things
attained FARRRACHING EFFECTS that could not be foreseen.
THE MOMENTOUS CHANGES OF THE LAST FEW YEARS MAKE
US REALIZE THAT WE ARE STILL ONLY STANDING ON THE
THRESHOLD OF AMERICAN HISTORY. IT IS AS IF ITS DOMAIN
WERE THE FUTURE RATHER THAN THE PAST.
The United States; having proclaimed as the basis of its political
system the consent of the government, has CHERISHED AS ITS
IDEAL A "PEACEFUL NATION, always guided by reason and
justice. In order that this ideal might be attained it perceives the ne
cessity of establishing international relations on DEFINITE AND
SURE FOUNDATIONS. Its predilection for legal matters has
found expression in the employment of arbitration.

The Moon.
Astronomers long since came to the
conclusion that the moon's surface is
very hot during the height of the lunar
day, which, as will be remembered,
lasts two weeks, and very cold during
the lunar night, which is equally long.
These extremes of temperature reach
their height at tbe lunar noon and
midnight and are greater thaD any
natural temperatures on the earth.
