IN The lreaete uf Some If the Pcfrrniers

u'urs. 40 W uu'ltrstrrd il there wes
rrtlrc in II hut simple business
tcrroart;nr It vas rxrlsined ~ The
list ieeue nf that paper as follows:
';Ihr whole transaction is simply q
hu0iutes ',ne in which the steckhrllers
haze made the change with view to
trcriving some remuneration on their
Investment"
That 10 rerv simple matter IF buai
ntsa. Mr. Cerers did not own the
plant. Alr. capers in card snnrunr-
ing the change, &c we remember, said
nothing cf political reasons producing
the change. For the llain ami simple
reason that there was no politics i'm it.
We publish, az article this week from
''lN WIZ NtcS piVpSt w SfSt f'NfSNii
zone of Your Fool Refurmere." IN
doing this 1t is no part Of our purpose
to take any hand In the bore Of con
tentiUn between him and the pub
Usher and owners Of the Press and Re
porter. We DO it simply as matter
If iuatice IT, him and to convince him
and those who think ike him that he
is in error when be states that the au-
lie arr trying to keep him in the dark.
II is 40 part Of the purpose of The Her
aid and News to shut Off any one from
the columns Hf this paper W tU keep
any one IN the dark. We have asked
for the fullest and freest discussion of
ii! public questions and when We did
81 W. meant what we said We want
the light thrown on. Any man can
reach the public through our columns.
IN The Herald and News you can see
all sides Of the political question. The
Herald and News Is no mans organ.
lis editorial columns are strictly the
property Of its editor. IN those col
umns he will always express such
opinions on public questions as he be-
leves to I've right and for the best inter
ests of the people without thought or
concern for private gain or personal pro-
motion. We firmly believe that truth
ia mighty and will prevail" and that
trush, right and justice should I've his
guiding stars. We follow where duty
directs and always try to be true to
ourselves and our conscience. unfOr-
tnnately, or fortunately, Of late we
have been in the minority, but that
does not concern US in the least. When
ever II becomes necessary for us to sell
our editorial convictions for hire then
We shall retire from the business and
try Son,e other calling.
But we started out simply TO say that
this Press ami Reporter matter was no
quarrel Of ours. We publish the com-
municaiion Of zone Of Your Fool Re
formers" however. SO that the charge
cannot be laid AZ our door that because
We 10 not agree with him on polis-
i:al questions, therefore he was shut
nti' from the publ" ear through the
press Of this county. We think he is
mistaken as TO the causes whi.:l, led 10
y change Of management in the paper,
bur of course we DO not speak with
authority. We DO know that ne is mis-
taken when he thinks the public Of
Newbe,ry County cannot get all sides
Of tire political question through the
columns of The Herald and News. It
is q newspaper first of ell and every
one can have a hearing.
