Any man in the newspaper business
who thinks he can please everybody
and antagonize none, and be success,
| had better sell out at the first oppor-
tunity. The man doesn't live who
can run newspaper and not antag-
onize certain people. And we
wouldn't give much for a man who
could please everybody. 1t is a GER
tainty that every issue of news
paper pleases many people: on the
other hand it is dead certainty that
you have offended somebody, not in
tentiOnalIy but in an unknown
manner to the editor. You have
either overlooked them; you didn't
make a personal of relative when
you should or you mentioned rela-
tive or friend who became mixed up
in the municipal court. It is the
easiest thing imaginable to bring
down the wrath of several households
by few lines in your old newspaper
that nobody cares for or takes But
how easy it is to produce trans
formation. The fellow who was the
warmest where Hannah wears her
beads, is mentioned in a pleasant
manner; he commences to unbend
and, in very short time he is
your best friend. He will be until
duty compels you to mention some
one who is relative or friend; in
connection with something that is
not favorable and then you are fool
or an idiot and a disgrace to the COM
munity. That's about the size Of the
situation, and is no wonder the aver
age editor pays little or no attention
to this state of affairs. But do not
run paper expecting to please every
body.-Stillwate Gazette.
