Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1873-07-03
The Little Institution Around the
Corner.

We are sorry to speak disparagingly
of our contemporary, whose inception
heralded with much shouting and high
sounding words promised SO much 10
ward the enlightenment of our people
and the welfare of the community we
are aware that it was conceived ana
founded just after the Greeley Juror ana
campaign, by soreheads and Greeley
candidates, who in time OF emergency
had deserted their party and principles.
And yet we rejoiced at its conception
and inception, because of our belief that
healthy competition is always desir-
able in any trade or profession In any
community, provided that the commun-
ity can support all of the competitors;
and though we do not think that Rutland
and vicinity can support two daily
papers, yet we can at least congratulate
the Globe in it's bright prospect of ex-
periencing the truth of the old adage
that ''boughten experience is always the
| best"
IL
for new one; and we hope it will sue
coed if it is worthy of success. There
| fore, it is with great hesitancy and dis
| inclination that we are obliged to oc-
casionally administer mild rebuke and
| a little sound advice to our newly born
| "Globular existence" around the corner.
Of course, like all immatured animation
| it is prone to frequently lose its temper
and reason, and to break out with
phrases and sentences replete with
naughty words and petty spite. Now
this is all wrong. We must inform our
young ''Globular aspirant, that fair
and interesting discussion, a spicy sar-
casm, and witty rejoinder and rebutter
are things to be desired between two
competitors in the same field. But re-
marks coupled with malice, mean in
situations and spiteful words, are bad
very bad indeed. We would also request
our young friend, when he makes his
comical remarks about THE HERALD, to
please distinguish the difference between
typographical errors and mistakes re
sulting from ignorance or lack of brains
such as calling Mt. Equinox 29,8OO
feet high, as see Globe of June 30.
We must really beg the pardon of the
''organ without any politics for the
opinion we have always had that there
was something the matter with It's brains
probably owing to the immense fall it
had from the pedestal it stood on, &C
cording to its own assertions, at its be-
ginning, to its present position.
We again emphatically assert that we
deprecate a malicious, personal discus
sion, and the reason we do not reply tC
the many petty assaults of the Globe is
because of our lack of time and space
for such small-talk, and Discrimination
for such discussion. Moreover, if we
should open our batteries upon the
DAILY Globulc without any politics,
and commence a series of assaults
characterized by such expressions as are
made use of by the "Globule," such il
substance or in meaning as-thou art &
liar, thief, asinine garbler, etc.-if we
should commence our assaults upon
them mercilessly, we say, we sadly
fear that ere many weeks had passed
our hearts would be cruelty lacerated
and our eyes stepped in tears by the ap,
pearance of the degenerated "organ
without any politics, turning upon us
| with IFS last exDirinr breath and SLOWLY
articulating the word ct tn Brute!
