Did you ever think of the task of an
editor? He is expected to say some
thing upon every subject and conse-
quently must say things more or less
objectional to the public. a business
man can keep his mouth shut and no
one raises an objection, but let any
merchant or professional man try the
plan of publicly expressing his opin-
ion upon every subject, as an editor is
expected to do, and see if he does not
stir up hornets nest.-Ex.
