The Neihart herald. [volume] (Neihart, Mont.) 1890-1901, 1892-11-26
THE WHEEL OF TIME.

seasons has performed another revolt
ution. This day the HERALD passes
the second year mark in its progress.
The past years events have gone to
make life enjoyable, and its profits to
to pay board bills. We pause to
wonder in what respect we have been
benefited by the past fifty-two
weeks and the self-imposed query
furnishes food for earnest reflection.
The year has not been one OF lin
ancial success, especially to the
newspaper man. He has merely
plodded on, continuing to write up
nice things about the country, little
needing whether those benefited are
paying him for it. A sorry sight
our newspapers would present if their
editors paused long to consider this
phase of the question. Limited are
his ideas if he sees no results of the
scribbling, the thinking, the pains
taking and the studious celebrating
other than those in the shape of ham
sandwiches, and modern substitutes
for fig leaves. Another and higher
motive tempers the true editors ac-
ton, lending virtue and power to his
labors. He cares too little whether
he has money to meet the next draft
on his machinery. He cares less
whether his writing pleases all his
readers. In fact, he is not satisfied
if he writes that which pleases every
body. Not simply to please, but to
know and to reason for the right
as he sees it.
We are not the least disconnected
if some of our readers have not
agreed with us, but should be sur
prised or ever disappointed if our
opinions conceded exactly with
theirs. For expression of opinion
we have made many enemies. Yet
the experience gained teaches us
that out of a given number of men
or women there will ever and always
be some of especially narrow con
ception, and surely is this true of
him who will not allow his neighbor
to hold whatever opinion he chooses.
1t is not a matter of opinion but Of
fact that in the past year Neihart has
been interesting. She has been ia
vored above her sister camps in suf-
fering less of reverses incident to
mining camps in western America.
Work has gone steadily on in her
mines, and the result of the years
work has been f~attering in the ex-
IRENE. The mines yield more ore,
the veins are larger, and in most cas-
es richer, and the idea of permanency
which we once had has been proved
beyond question. All indica-
dications point to a time when our
ores will be valuable for the copper
they contain and we doubt not that
many of the mines, upon reaching a
depth of 1900 feet, will be found to
yield rich copper ores.
Herewith we append a chronology
ical table of the years proceeding.
A full and complete table of the
years important transaction in and
about Neihart.
A summary of these events shows
that the leading interest in Neihart
has been social. That parties, dances,
surprises and entertainments have
been frequent. 1t has been a year of
society and of social advancement.
The HERALD has reported in this
t~ime:--Marriages, II; births, II;
deaths 16; surprise parties and grand
balls without number. Let every
reader clip this table and in one
year from date, when a second one
is produced, the comparison will be
of no little interest. We predict
that a vital difference one year hence
will be noticed. Instead of a social
advancement we will have an era Of
material improvement which will
over-shadow social things. Every
evidence at present points toward it
We will have a year OF materia
growth; a year of business activity
of building, Of increased production
and of increased values. Everything
indicates it.
