ALL FoLLY-Every individual in this land
ofthe free and home oftbe brave is privileged
TO buy an amateur printing outfit and 60 to
work. A grocer has a perfect right to REIN
force his bank account by printing bill heads,
dodgers etc. and no newspaper has any
right to quarrel with him "Hesall right"

munity avais itself Of the advantages offered
by a newspaper IT, yentilate lIis, their or it's
views complaints or ambitions and when he,

the newspaper. that has Il Job department
attached. they commit an offence as well
against ordinn ry business economy as against
good taste. IFS all folly; the publisher is
your printer, not your grocer ~ we'll ask
your blacksmith to provide you with your
theology, or your physician with your tur'

the privilege of widc.awaKe and intelligent
publisher to choose whether or not lie shall

fusal thereof accorded him. Digest well the
further proposition that the very best bust.

for space in the newspapers columns and
that were that space not worth the money
paid therefor, il would shortly remain un.

premises to the finished and complete sylio.

community than can I've saved to it ny an
