The Local Newspaper.

"All things consider ed the newspaper
OF the smaller city and town has a mis-.
sion not equaled ven by that of the
great daily in the largest of our cities,n
says the Amsterdam IN. " Democrat.
The newspaper in the small place
reaches the heart of its readers and
keeps in touch with local sentiment as
the journal in the great city can not
hope to do. The editor is not a myster-
ious being, far removed from his fell
low townsmen, who has to be reached
by a bell boy and a card receiver. His
readers know him by sight; he is n
of themselves; his interests are their
interests.
Just now it is the chief interest of
the country outside of the large cities
to build up a noble public spirit. This
the local paper can do as nothing else
can, and thisit is at present accomplish
ing. The small cities and the rural
neighborhoods need to be made attrac.
tive as places of residence, 80 that they
will be a joy perpetual and draw peo-
pie away from the big cities, instead of
big cities drawing people away from
them.
Every small city, every neighbor-
hood needs good streets and roads, good
Libraries, beautiful landscapes, public
Improvement societies, first class
school, societies for the learning of
civics, good citizenship and good local
government. These are things in which
every man, woman and child is inter-
ested. They are the things in the Sc
curing OF which the local newspaper
can and does aid more than any other
agency. Whatever tends to increase
the prosperity, refinement and intelli-
gence of the region in which the ma
jority of its readers dwell, that the 10.
cal newspaper will be found to adyo
cate every time,
1T is not a mere medium for the cir
%culation of gossip. 1t is the herald and
promoter to the extento Of its circulation
of the culture, progress and prosperity
