The newspaper fraternity will re
ceive with many regrets the announce
! ment made in the last issue of the Ocon-
to Reporter that its talented editor, Mr.
J. H. Waggoner, lays down the editorial
pen and retires from the business of
newspaper making, which he has fol-
lowed for the past thirty years An
affection of the eyes caused the retire
ment. There have been few as bright,
interesting and skillful writers on the
country press as our friend Waggoner.
That his lot may fall in pleasant and
profitable channels and he be restored
to complete health, will be the sincere
wish of his editorial brethren wherever
his acquaintance extends,
