Every editor makes enemies.

Every editor makes enemies. A
little squib aimed at no one in par
ticular. will hit some holIow-headed
individual, and he at once declares
rimself "agin" the paper. The pa
per may have given him many
complimentary notices, but the
imaginary thrust puts him on his
dignity, and he at once establishes
himself as critic, but he hasn't
the nerve to 90 to the editor with
his supposed grievance. Just no
tice, and you will see that the men
who are "agin" their home paper
are, as a rule, men who would not
1e missed if they would leave the
community forever. On every
question of local interest the home
paper stands ready to make fight
