We long ago made up our mind that

We long ago made up our mind that
man could be gentleman and run a
newspaper, and that we would endeavor
not to forget the courtesies that belong to
the profession. A publisher never shows
. good breeding, never wins self respect, or
the respect Of others by using slang: or
by wag,ng a constant warfare against
other newspaper men, or the inhabitants
of the town in which they live. The
principles Of the party are not advanced
and the town in which they live, not built
up, or benefited thereby. On the other
hand, we like the editor who has positive
opinions on all public questions which it
is proper for him TO discuss, and he can
disagree with US, and we with him, with.
out indu]ging in personalities. A manly
criticism, gentlemanly, fair argument,
is q bepefit both to the editor and his
reader. The truth can easier be reached
in this way and the editors have more
respect for themselves and be better
pleased with results.

five congressman. The population of the

A Good Piano.

Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper
Of July 26th, 1879, says:
A good piano at a fair price is one Of
the wants Of the times. An instrument
that is durable, that is substantially made,
and has all those qualities of tone which
make tirst-class piano, can be had from
the Mendelssohn Piano Co., New York,
from $3.50 to $500. For over thirty-eight
years their factory has been producing
pianos, and adopting every new 1nven-
lion which has proved itself to be valu-
able. They can be compared by an eX-
pert with the instruments Of the highes,
name and fancy price, and the result is
surprisingly satisfactory. The piano is
warranted for five years, aud no purchas'
er has ever made complaint. From
personal knowledge and critical examina.
ton we can recommend any one to send
for catalogue to the above mentioned
manufacturers.
