Tributes of ltespect and their I'ubtication. The attention of persons desiring tributes of respect published in The News is called to the standing announcement in this ( paper to the effect that such publications must be paid for. , When a death occurs the fact is, of course, published free of charge, being a matter of news and full particulars of the life and character of the deceased 1 are given when known to the editor. But later on, when it is desired by friends or relatives or organizations of any kind to pay tribute through the columns ol i the paper to the memory of their beloved dead, they are advised to submit their manuscript to the business manager, who will inform them what its publication will cost. It will readily bo seen why the printing of a tribute of re specl should be paid for. Ft can not be considered a matter of news, for the death of the person has already been duly chronicled in the paper. It is usually a personal or family matter and ol no special interest to the general public. Such being the case the party or parties desiring its publication should be willing to pay , at lost the actual expense there- . of.
