We are contemplating reducing the
size of The JOURNAL. 1t is dead easy
for the public to guess why-lack of sup
port. We could continue to run the
paper at its present size, if someone will
furnish the necessary funds and also
feed the face OF the printer. Publishing
a newspaper in county having only
three hundred male voters, on a steady
diet of pure air and sage brush scenery,
is hard layout. Capital nor settlers
will ever locate in county that is too
cussed poor to support local paper,
Don't be an migrate by trying to kick
the pnblic spirited men out of your
town. Men who have been in the lead
of every public enterprise in the town
for the past two years and who have
devoted their time and money to benefit
the whole community. Move out your
selves, the town will convalesce. To
listen to the braying of these jackasses,
who never give cent toward any public
improvement makes a go-ahead citizen
want to use a rapid fire shotgun on them
and blow them out of the county.
1t is no discredit to o. man to have
enemies and opposition. Many men hes
itate to take any course that will call
forth the opposition of any person, be-
cause they do not want to have enemies. /
The world is chock full of envious peo-
ple- Some people hate man because
he is successful in business or occupies
a prominent position in the community.
The world has no animosity toward the
quiet citizen who offends no one. gets in
nobody's way. 1t is the live men of
push and energy who incur enmity.
Every man who is fearless in the dis
charge of his obligation in any station of |
life, has enemies.
