The following is not original. and is
only local in the sense that it is uni
versal: A newspaper and a newspap er
editor that people don't talk about and
sometimes abuse are rather poor con-
Germs. Iha men aud business that an
editor sometimes feels it duty to de.
fend at risk Of making enemies. of
another class are often the very. frst to
show ingratitude. The editor who e1.
poets to receive much gratitude or
charity will soon find out his mistake:
but he should go ahead and say and
do what he conscientiously thinks ia
fight. without regard to frowns OF
smiles.
