THERE is no denying that, as a rule
the Editor is expected to do more
for nothing, to give more for the
money, to expect less thanks, or
even acknowledgment for favors
done, than the lawyer, doctor,

not hold good with the LOUISIANA
DEMOCRAT, we invite our much es-
teemed delinquents to call at our
office and deny all this statement
practically.
