HARTFORD. Feb. 9.—-Discovery of
a long-lost portrait of George Wash-
dngtou by the American artist. Gilbert
Stuart. in New York city recently di-
rects attention to the Stuart portrait
of Washington which hangs in Me—
morial Hall in the State Library
“hung here. Nearly every artist
who comes to this city makes an ef-l
fort to see this Gilbert canvass. It was
bought direot from the artists by vir-
ture of a resolution of the General
Assembly in May 1800. The under-
mding was that it had been painted
by order or a committee from South
Carolina and was then declined on the
.‘round that it was not a. portrait of
General Washington.
A committee from Connecticut con-
sisting ot‘ James Hillhouse. whose
we: in New Haven are now the pro-
perty of Yale University. Chauncey
Goodrich of New Haven and John
Trumbull of Lebannn. conferred with:
Gilbert as to a Washinrtnn portrait"
and purchased the one he had painted
“for South Carolina. It was hung in
the senate chamber of the historic
,-»StI1e'house in Hartford and after
about seventy years it was taken to
the Senate Chamber of the present
“mum. A few years since it was
placed in the State Librarv.
A copy of a Washington after Stuart
:but not by him hung for many years
in the state house at New Haven when
Connecticut had two capitalsand two
state houses. and is now in the Hart-
ford High School.
Another Washington. Alan a, copy. is
in Wadsworth Atheneum hero close by
a picture of Farragut in the rigging of
“the l'. S. S. Hartford in the Battle of
Mobile Bay.

lllNllllNESS AND
“‘EUGENE. Ore.. Feb. 9.——Settlng a
'standard based upon truth. sincerity,
thoroughness. justice. mercy. kindli-
Iness. and moderation.
'State Editorial Association adopted
[recently at a. meefing here a code of
_ethics intended to be a. guide to the
profession of jourifflism in the state.
The code ”was prepared by Dean
Colin Dyment. of the University of
Oregon. at the direction of the asso-
ciation. and was unanimously ap-
prfi'ed by a representative gathering,
of Oregon editors and publishers who
pledged themselves to adhere to its
prec‘é‘pfs.
There are seven sections to the code
and they go in detail into all prac-
tices and relationships of journalism.
The first is ~headed "Sincerity and
Truth" and decla'f-ed for accuracy in
editorial. advertisement. article or
news story.
“Care. Competency. ThoroughneSS"
is the caption ot the second section
which includes among its declarations
the following: “By study and inquiry
and observation. we will constantly
aim to improve ourselves. so that our
writings may be more authentic. and
of greater perspective. and more con-
ducive to the social good."
Protection. within reason. of the
rights of individuals mentioned in
public (nominate. regal-«1m at the
effect on "good stories" or upon edi-
torial policies. "is a principle ’Tncluded
in the section devoted to “Justice.
Mercy. Kindliness." This section also
declares against making “privileged
utterance" a cloak for unjust attack.
or spiteful venting. or carelessness in
investigation. in the cases of parties
or persons. _
"we will endeavor to avoid the in-
justice that springs from hasty con-
cluslon in editorial or reporter-la] or
interpretative practice" is a‘p'rlnciple
laid down in section 4. devoted to
"Moderation. Conservatism, Propor-
tion." This section also provides
against distortion of news by improper
emphasis. skillful arrangements or by
devices of typography or rhetoric.
The section declaring against par-
tisanship and propaganda sets forth
the following ”VVe will not permit. un-
less in exceptional cases. the publish-
ing 01’ news and editorial matter not
prepared by ourselves or our stats.

code pledges ‘the Oregon newspaper-

publisher has reason to believe will

“We will not advertise our own ,
newspapers or its circulation boast-
fully or otherwise in terms not in,
harmony with the clauses of this code
of ethics," is another provision of this
section which concludes with the fol-
lowing: “We will not make our print-
