:37:06
We'll be on the street soon,
Charlie, another 10 minutes.

:37:10
Three hours and 50 minutes late,
but we did it.

:37:12
- Tired?
- A tough day.

:37:14
- A wasted day.
- Wasted?

:37:16
You only made the paper over
four times tonight, that's all.

:37:19
I've changed the front page a little,
Mr.Bernstein. That's not enough.

:37:22
There's something I've got to get into
this paper besides pictures and print.

:37:27
I've got to make the New York Inquirer
as important to New York...

:37:30
...as the gas in that light.
:37:33
What are you going to do, Charlie?
:37:35
My Declaration of Principles.
Don't smile, Jedediah.

:37:39
I've got it all written out here.
:37:42
You don't want to make any promises
you don't want to keep.

:37:46
These'll be kept.
:37:48
"I'll provide the people of this city...
:37:51
"...with a daily paper
that will tell all the news honestly.

:37:56
- "I will also provide--"
- That's two sentences starting with "I."

:37:59
People will know who's responsible...
:38:02
...and they'll get the truth in the Inquirer,
quickly, simply and entertainingly.

:38:06
No special interests will be allowed
to interfere with that truth.

:38:09
"I will also provide them with a fighting
and tireless champion of their rights...

:38:13
"...as citizens and as human beings."
:38:17
Signed:
:38:18
"Charles Foster Kane."
:38:23
- Can I have that, Charlie?
- I'm going to print it.

:38:26
Solly!
:38:28
Yes, Mr.Kane?
:38:29
I want you to run this editorial
in a box on the front page.

:38:32
This morning's front page?
:38:34
That's right, Solly,
that means we'll have to remake again.

:38:37
- Yes.
- Go down and tell them.

:38:39
All right.
:38:40
When you're through with that,
I'd like to have it back.

:38:46
I'd like to keep that particular
piece of paper myself.

:38:49
I have a hunch it might turn out
to be something pretty important.

:38:54
- A document...
- Sure.

:38:56
...like the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution...
