with more profit to himself than il has
been to me, and perhaps more acceptabiy
TO the supporters OF the paper.
Mr. b. will devote his entire time and

paper, anu if lie can receive as | have no

enlargement Of all old friends Of the pa
per, he will make InE IILoT the lest
newspaper in the county.
To my friends who have kindly aiiel me
in very many ways during my efforts to
keep The PILOT alloat, | return my sincere
thanks. 10 ali good Democrats who have
aided the paper With encouragement aud
money, for myself and in behalf Of the
party, | return thanks. / only regret that
] have not been able to issue beftcr paper
Many issues have been sent out that dis
pleased me more than any other person,
but when it is known that other business
that l could not neglect, compelled me to
leave the paper to be run by the boys,
aud that ! never intended to remain IN the
editorial chair" longer than | could tinu
a competent man to take my Pace-ln
view of these facts, have uniformly nae:
with forbearance aud encouragement from
all good Democrats, for which ! cannot bc
too thankful ! am grateful for the many
kind notices that The PILOT has received
from other papers at various times during
the last year, ami especially DO | return
thanks TO the editors Of our own city pa
pcrs for the courteous and gentiemanIy
treatment ! have ever received at then
hands.
And now, as | pass the quill over to
my successor, l realize to the fullest extent
that | also pass over TO him one Of the /

We are about to enter uron another
spirited political contest for the mastery in
our county, Our opponents are well Or
gan zeI and vigiant, and unless every
Democrat does his duty the counting Of
shc votes uoAt Na-embar will find US
bcaten-beaton because the nvruLliean
party will be united and active. But, if
we can meet them 1ith a like united anu
determined action, we shall beat them ty
1000 majority. To see such a victory as
this in Mnitowoc county would recon-
renSe me well for the editorial chatiug |
have eXpclenceu. We udu nae ,,.,..--s
ity if we will, and one Of the most eifectua!
means of bringing about this result Is the
lever of the Democratic press of the coun-
~. Then rally to its support, council and
encourage It's editor, and we shall have
Democratic party that will always be good
for 1000 majority.
In conclusion, if have, through the col
