The brethren take us to task for publish
ing the news just as it is. We can stand
it if they can. The people of this city
have got in the habit Of depending on the
ARGUS for their local news, and know
that they will find everything that trans
pires in our long and broad columns. 1t
is our intention to publish paper not for
few people, but all the people. We
give the news as it is, and in spicy read
able shape. So say the people, and they
are the ones who we try to please, and in
pleasing them we know we are giving
satisfaction.
