i;y some unaccountable misrepresentation
Of facts, there is large class Of people IN
the world who think that it costs little or
nothing to run newspaper, and If they buy
copy from the newsboy, when too far from
the office to come and beg one, they are reg
ular patrons and entitled tounhmted fa-
vors. Men call every day at newspaper Off
ces to get a copy Of the daily paper, Just
from the press, for nothing, who would new
er dream Of begging pocket handkerchief
from dry goods store, or piece of candy
from confectioner, even upon the plea Of
old acquaintance, having bought something
| once before. One paper IS not much, but
hundred day amounts to something in
the course Of time, But this is a small
drain compared with the free advertising
newspaper is expected to do. Some
men who have paid two dollars at an early
period Of life for an advertisement worth
four or five, appear to think they are stock
holders in the establishment for eternity.
They demand the publication Of all mar
riage and funeral notices, obituaries, and
family episodes, for the next forty years,
, gratis. Speak Of pay and they grow in
dignant. Don't patronize your paper =
Yes but you receive the worth Of your
money for what you pay. But, says
the patron, 1T will not cost you anything
to put this in, which is Just as ridiculous
as to ask man to grind your axe on his
grindstone, and graciously tell him it won't
cost him a cent. 1t takes money to run
newspaper as well as any other business !;
no paper will succeed financially that car
ries dead head system. Any mention Of
, the peoples affairs that they are anxious
to see IN print is worth paying for, and
when printed is generally worth az much
as any other investment Of the same
amount.
The newspaper business is very exscting
on all connected with it, aud the pay is
comparatively small the proprietors risk
more money for smaller profits, and the
editors and reporters and printers work
harder and cheaper than the same number
! of men in any other profession requiring
the given amount OF intelligence, training
and drudgery. The life has its charms
and pleasant associations, scarcely known
to the outside world but it has its earnest
work and anxieties and hours Of exhaus-
ton. which also are not known to those
who think the business all fun. The idea
that newspaperdom is a charmed circle,
where the favored members live life oi
ease and free from care, and 60 to the cir
Gus at night on free ticket and to the
Springs ON pass in the summer, is an idea
which we desire to explore practically and
Theoretically. Business is business, and
the journal that succeeds is the one that IL
run ON a square business footing, the same
as banking or building bridges, keeping I
hotel or running livery stable. - -NemPhi

A man took umbrage at an article which
appeared in a paper published in the town
in which he resided, as personal. the other

office, and inquired of the first one he met
who wrote that article, showing the paper,
and pointing to the one in which he took
exceptions.

ompany you control.
Cecil Esmond flushed hotly AZ he re-
leased the surprised Eveline from his EN-
brace and arose to his feet. Never before
had he been affronted by the father OF her
whom he had expected 80 soon 10 wed.

Eveline Berton turned pale, and, star
tied at the word, shrank instInctively

rife with.a Thousand vague ideas.

flushed and excited. that the officers are

A loud cry Of absolute horror burst
from Cecil Esmonds lips at this announce
ment, echoed by the bsronet's daughter.
Her father quickly hsstened to her side,
for she seemed about to fall senseless to
the floor.

were with the miners all this time
MIR. Siney-While this parley was going
on between Fisher and his old miners
some one Apprised him Of my presence.
We soon met, and had very short but
pleasant interview, during which the men
became clamorous. During the clamor
went to the rear of the crowd in company
with two or three other gentlemen, the
crowd all the while crowding on towards
the mines. Fearful of making any mis-
take, consulted with Justice Of Peace
with regard to the highway, aud was in
formed that it had been used by the public
as such ever since his knowledge. then
followed the crowd but In no instance
stepped a foot OF that highway until asked
by Clark to accompany him for a short
walk, which did, and what appeared to
me to be very friendly chat.

Sheriff of the county was pointed out to

aside and said that Captain Clark had
sworn out a warrant against the strikers.
He said he was all alone, as he believed
that no resistance would he made to his
authority. At his request ] called the
men on the train together and informed
them of the nature Of the sheriff's busi-
ness, when the crowd said he could have
every man he desired to take. The men
then agreed to call meeting, and invited
him to be present to read out the names
of those he wanted, when they all would
go with him. This was done, the sheriff
was present, aud read Of the names Of
twenty-three persons, who Immediately
responded, and soon took the train for
Osceola where they all gave bonds. The
men while on the way were well treated,
and have no cause for complaint. At the

rather unexpected withdrawal the night pre-
vlous of Governor GrOome simplified the
contest very materially, and the result

part of the session was consumed In debate
over the vitality important question whether
the baltimore city legateS should be per-
mitted To vote on questions incidental to
permanent organization and the appoint
ment OF committee on resolu. lions, growing
out of the fact that three wards OF the CITY
carried in the interest OF Mr.. Hamilton for
governor, and that the city convention as
body ignored that result in those wards and
selected delegates from them in the interest
of MIR. Carroll for governor, thus rul-
Ing out the three delegates TO the state

point Messrs Freaner of Washington, Cor

mary questions. Responses were ma lie by

The subject was cut off in all its preliminary
stages al this point 10y the decision OF the
chairman that the city delegates, having
credentials from the city convention as JJyiriH
