Doctors and Newspapers.

The doctor from Algona said that
newspapers are run for revenue only.
What in the thunder do doctors run
for any? Do they run for glory?
One good healthy doctors bill would
run this Office six modths. An editor
works half day for three dollars
with an investment of $4,000; doc
tor looks wise and works ten minutes
for $500, with an Investment of three
cents for catnip and pill that cost
$1.27. A doctor goes to college two
or three years, gets diploma and a
string of words the devil himself can
not pronounce. cultivates look of
gravity that he palms OF for wisdom,
gets box of pills, q cayuse and q
meat saw and sticks out his shipgle
q full fedged doctor. He will then
doctor till you die at a stipulated
price per visit, and putthem in as thick
as your pocket book will permit. An
editor never gets his education fin
ished; he learns a. he lives, and
stndies all his life He eats bran
mash and liver, he takes his pay in
hay and turnips and keeps the doctor
in town by refraining from printing
the truth about him. We would like
TO live in Algona and run paper
six months and see the doctor
change his mind about our running
paper for revenue only Ii we
didn'. get so.ne glory out of it Ve'C

but if the doctor makes one there is
q funeral, cut flowers and smell of
varnish. The doctor can use a word
foot long, but & the editor uses it
he has to spell it. If the doctor
goes to see another mans wife he
will charge the man for the visit. If
an editor calls on another mans wife
he gets charge of buckshot. Any
medical college can make a doctor.
You can't make an editor. He has
to be born one. When doctor gets
drunk it's case of 'Govercame by
heat" and if he dies it is a case of
heart failure. When an editor gets
drunk it is case of too much booze,
and if he dies it is case of delirum
tremens. The itOr works to keep
from starving, while the doctor works
to keep off the govt. The editor
helps men to live better and the doc
tor helps them to die easy. The
doctor pulls the sick mans leg, the
editor is glad to collect his bills at
all. Revenue only? We are living
for fun in spite of the doctors

MRS. MCKNLEY.-In spite of the
statement that Mrs. McKinley's health
is no worse than it was on Sunday the
reports current yesterday evening state
that her condition Ia critical. She is re-
ported to have rested comfortably yes
terday 8 hours. The President went to
San Jose to the rose carnival and made
speech but foon returned to San
Francisco. The announcement from
San Francisco of Mrs. McKinley's
serious illness and the suggestion that
the sightseeing features of the return
trip may be abandoned, In order to
bring Mrs. Mckinley home as quickly
as possible. cause no surprise In Wash

letters written by members OF the Pres
ident's party that Mrs. McKinley's
health has been rapidly failing ever
since the President left New Orleans.
At the request of the President himself
all allusion to Mrs. McKinley's sickness
was suppressed.
