POTTER. TRUTH SHALL REIGN. A democratic subscriber of the Pal ladium, by a chance question, has given us an opportunity of expressing our views on true journalism, and as we apply those views to the columns of this newspaper. This man's question was, "How did it happen that the Palladium, the republican organ of Wayne county, devoted so much space to Mr. Marshall's speech, and to the democratic banquet?" The answer to that is that the Palladium, although a party organ, is above all, a newspaper. It Is the function of the true newspaper to print everything that happens and furthermore, to print such happenings just as they occurred. Time was when it was considered the duty of political organs in reporting the happenings of political opponents to distort the facts as much as possible in order to place them in an unfavorable light. This applied not only to the editorial columns, but also to the news columns. In other words, it was considered and is considered in some localities today perfectly square and above board to lie iu the news columns of a newspaper in order to undermine political opponents. But the day of that kind of thing has rassed. Journalism of today has a higher mission than stooping to the use of lies to boost the fortunes of any political party. A newspaper can still be a party organ and yet not lower itself or its editor in the esteem of the reading public, whether that public be composed of republicans, democrats, socialists or prohibitionists. Modern journalism as typified in the Palladium, seeks to report all news happenings, whether they be of a political nature or not, just as they happen. In other words, the man or woman who pays us ten cents a week for th Palladium is entitled to the truth of every happening Insofar as we can obtain it. The way in which the big flemocratic banquet was reported in the Palladium, illustrates how closely we hew to the line in our endeavors to give you the truth and nothing but the truth, to the best of our ability. "If a newspaper expects to carry
weight In Its community it must stick to the truth. The news columns are for impartial news. It is in the editorial columns that the editor, republican or democratic, should express his views, and by logic and precise statements seek to convince his readers to his way" of thinking, or, better still, to cause the readers to think out their various problems of the body politic for themselves. So, Mr. Democratic Subscriber, when you read the news columns of the Palladium, you are reading news independently written and free from any attempt to influence your judgment. And the same applies to you, Mr. Republican Subscriber. Where we will try and get you is in the editorial columns which, true to the traditions of the old
Palladium, will be written from the republican standpoint as long as that standpoint can be maintained by fair means. But even at that, Mr. Democratic Subscriber, you can afford to take the paper for, aside from the value of its news columns to you, you will not be the worse off by reading what the other side has to say editorially in support of your political opponents. A FATAL T Two Men Killed and Others Scalded at National Cash Register Plant. STEAM PIPE BLEW UP. Dayton, Ohio, June 4. Two men were Instantly killed and three injured, one fatally, by the bursting of an eighteen-inch, steam pipo in the boiler room of the National Cash Register Company while repairs to a leaking pipe were being made by a force of plumbers. The dead were Elton Arment, of 21S Gunckel avenue, and John Kissling, of 126 Bolton street. The pipes which convey the steam from the boiler room are IS inches in diameter, and one of them having leaked, the men were at work repairing it when the explosion occurred. While they were tightening the screws of the casket, the pipe burst at the joint. A pressure of 150 pounds to the inch is carried by the pipes and a loud report followed. Scalding steam escaped, and those who were not burned fatally were frightfully seared. Kissling and Arment suffered fearfully the few minutes they lived after the accident. The accident is the most distressing that has taken place at this plant. HOW IT SPREADS. The first package of Dr. Leonhardt's Hem-Roid (used internally) cured a case of Piles that was considered hopeless. The news spread and the demand prompted Dr. J. S. Leonhardt, of Lincoln, Neb., the discoverer, to prepare it for general use. It will cure any case of Piles. $1.00, with absolute guarantee. Leo II.

More than 2,000,000 words of testimony have been taken alreday in the government suit to dissolve the Standard Oil company, now on before Special Examiner Franklin Ferriss. Before the hearing comes to a close another million words will doubtless be added to the record. This is said to be tho largest mass of testimony ever gathered in a single case, for not only will the record contain, in excess of three million words of testimony, but several thou-' sand pages of exhibits. The number j of words included in these exhibits will add still another million words to the record. All this mass of testimony will have to be gone over by the three judges. It is said to be the largest contract of the kind that a triumvirate of judges hhas ever been called upon to wade through. The three judges who will have to read the evidence are Adams, Sanborn and Hook. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS (Furnished by County Recorder Mosbaugh.) Richmond Trust Co., to Uarrold. lots Frank L.

"I want some collars for my husband," said a lady in a department store, "but I am afraid I have forgotten tho size." "Thirteen and a half, ma'am?" suggested the clerk. "That's it!
