YeBe Journalism
The jury in the libel case
against the Portland News, re
turned a verdict of not (fuilty.
Evidently they were not satisfied
beyond a doubt that the editor of
The News was malicious and un
truthfull when he called County
Sutlgc Cleeton and County Com
missioner Lightner "plain rob
bers" last January. According
to the evidence produced at the
trial Commissioner Lightner did
not nurchase certain artices for
the new county court house ac
cording to the letter of the law
but saw a more effective way of
doing th? buying and at the trial
it was not proven that any
if raft had been made, as was
charged by The News.
To one who is posted on the
matter, the sensational "news"
appearing in such papers as the
Portland News, does not appeal
at all. Being personally acquain
ted with the reporters of several
such papers we know that they
are told to write up articles a
guinst public officials or other
wise prominent people wholly up
on suspicion and w4th utter dis
regard for the truth. These ar
ticles appeal to those looking for
sensational matter who accept
thorn as the truth. The reporter
suspicions something; be writes
it up as if it were a proven fact;
the paper sells like hotcakes on
the streets and the circulation
manager and publisher have aH
tained their object. Their large
circulation is an inducement for
the advertisers to use their col
umns. The publisher of any pri
vately owned newspaper is in the
business for whatever returns he
can make on his investment and
any business man who claims a
dilferent motive tells an untruth.
The cry, then put up by the yel
low journals, that they are pub
lished simply to protect the inter
ests of the so-called "common
people", is a deliberate lie, as
any fair-minded person will ad
mit. On the other hand, papers
issued by labor unions, such as
the Portland Labor Press, never
seek to mislead the public and
do not conduct their official or
gan for the primary purpose of
selling advertising space. If a
person really wants to get the
truth in any matter where pub
lic officials are exposed in their
crookedness let them read reli
able paers who are after the
absolute truth, and not read pa
mpers of the Portland News type
whose sole object Is to spread
- sensational and untruthful mat
ter for the purpose of gaining a
larger circulation. Such papers
as The News are not tit to enter
the home. This is the opinion of
The Bulletin regarding all yellow
journal and sensational publica
tions and we don't care who
knows it,
Ntw Law la Effect
In another column we mention
some of the new laws that went
into effect June 2.
' The laws making it a felany
for a husband to neglect to aup
poft hit wife or children, and the
physical examination of bride
grooms are very Important
Rarely win a man be tent to the
penitentiary for neglect of hit
family. But the existanes of
this law will be a constant ehib
over the headi of men who view
their family relations lightly. At
so it may be the nvens of o tar
will the physical requirement
law.
The lawr making a liquor deal
er liable whenever he or anyone
in his employ sells liquor to an
habitual drunkard or an Intoxi
cated person, will help confine
the liquor traffic to its proper
channel Is. Under the new law
if a man commits a crime, or is
injured, or causes any damage,
the saloonkeeper who sold the
liquor is financially responsible
under the law for whatever dam
age his family may suffer. Here
after it will be for the saloon
man's own benefit to see that he
sells liauor only to men who can
and do control their habits.
