On Our Head.

Observation-Disclosures AND News
has reached our sanctum with its new
heading. We cannot say that we adj
mire the style Of the heading, but the
paper is very ably and vigorously con-
Quoted, and deserves a generous sup
port from the town and county. New
berry can now boast of two OF the best
weekly journals il the State. II our
esteemed contemporary will pardon
the suggestion, we would say that we
concur with the Press and Banner in
thinking that NEws-HERALD would
have been 4 more appropriate and sig
nificant name than the one selected.-

has come ont with its new head. 1t is
not very pretty but the paper is first
class despite its ''ugly mug."-Sunater

It strikes us very forcibly that our
brethren Of the press generally do
not take to our new heading. Some
like it and some don't. The report Of
the majority is against us. We there
fore rise to question Of privilege.
Not to point OF order, because it
wouldn't be well taken, the liberty of
the press being respected. In quoting
the remarks, good, bad and Indifferent,
of our friends 1--WE don't copy compli-
mentlry notices only we hope our
readers won't think that we are ''run-
ming our head in the ground" We
just must say something or our head
will burst. 1t has been knocked and
"banged" by our exchanges until it
really aches. 1t would be too painful
to bear were it not for the few sooth-
ing pats it receives. Bit it has been
spared the hardest blow-it hasn't yet
been called a dudes head. Enough
though has been said about it to make
it feel sick {; it seems that it needs the
attention of DR.. Shriner or DR.. Smith.
Won't some of the P. DIS doctors OF
the Press now prescribe for it? For
the past month or two it has floated
on the breeZes iron where the snow
capped mountains kiss the northern
horizon to where old ocean ripples DER
the southern shores" that the News
AND HERALD has new head which
is unbecoming, although its pulse is
acknowledged to be all right. Our
headlight will continue to shine. 1t
is like the torch OF truth, the more it's
shook the more it shines. Our eX-
changes knock it into pi and try to eX-
tinguish it in the sea Of journalism.
They shake their CORY locks at it, but
like Bancho's ghost it will not [stayl
down. They crush it, but it rises again
"to assert the majesty Of its suprema-
cy." In the rosebud garden of the
newspaper kingdom it may yet linger
like the last rose of summer, left bloom
ing alone, while its lovely companions
are faded and gone" In conclusion,
gentlemen of the press Of South Caro-
lima, we are sorry our head doesn't
suit you, and had we known that it
would have brought down such vol
ley of hot shot from your batteries
on its devoted lines, we would certain
ly have asked for an extra meeting Of
the State Press Association and selec-
ted head by unanimous vote.
