Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1872-01-25

REPUBLICAN and the former and pres
ent editors.
We publish the notices to let our
neighbors know that we are duly CRATE
ful for kind words, and partly because we
have a little of that prile which stimu
lates to emulation--and in addition to the
other reasons, we want it generally
known that Mr.. Bender, our recent part
ner, and senior editor of the Republican,
was respected, and appreciated by the
brethren of the press.
In the Republican, Sof last week, Mr.
Bender announces his retirement from
that paper, and that Mr. Millikan will in
the future, own and conduct it. 1t is
probable that the remark recently made
by Mr.. Bender, on the retirement of a
Democratic editor, is true of himself
his nature was too good to longer keep
company with the readers of that paper"
Being now inducted into the practice of
law, without let or hindrance, he will
have ample opportunity to exercise his
genius without violating his conscience
which he could not do successfully while
u
Mil!ikan, whom we have known for
years, we extend our best wishes We
recommend him to such Republican
friends as we may have, and to whom he
may be unknown, as being worthy OF
their confidence and patronage.
That is what tie Plymouth Democrat
says. All that is said in a kindly spirit
we accept as true-and needs no com
ment. Platt will have his little joke on
Mr. Bender and the readers of the Re
publican, which is received in the right
spirit
