THE LAST.

This is the last of TIE Press. We wish to
state our experience briefly as possible, SO that
there may be no misunderstanding.
We made two mistakes when we began this
paper; in our estimate Of the prosperity of the
county, and in our estimate of the amount of
Democratic support we would receive. We had
not published the paper three months before we
discovered these mistakes we had n good offer at
the time to go elsewhere; but a few friends had
and keep up the paper, if possible. We did so
we have, in doing so, run into debt which it will
take labor elsewhere to pay Off; we have given
the paper thorough trial, and the result is, that
find there are large number of Democrats
throughout the county who prefer to give their sub
scriptions and advertising patronage to a Repub-
liCan paper. We don't object to this every man
has right to patronize what suits him. We only
mention it a fact and we bear testimony to the
fact that Democratic paper will not be supported
here, and hope that no other foolish printer will
waste his time in renewing our experiment.
1t was a qualification to us to be given the county
printing but that printing is not of the value that
many seem to suppose. The county has not much
printing to be done now and with county scrip
almost valueess, it is not worth much. 1t would
be of assistance, in connection with general and
hearty support of the paper among Democrats f;
with such n support, the paper could be continued /;
but it cannot be got.
THE Press did its duty at election time. 1t
tried to help some who did not try to help it. 1t
can say 8 have fought good fight; have
kept the faith"
We withdraw from the county cheerfully we
willingly surrender to others all our interests in
the benefits of the big ditch and trusting that all
the people of Trinity may soon enjoy more pros
porous times, we bid one and all a kind good-by
Trinity Press, Dee. l2h, 1871.
