THE NEWSPAPER

The newspaper is a factor of progress. It's editor is always working for the up building of the town, state and nation Selfshness hath no part in the makeup of to enter his life There is no class of men who labor an1 toll for the bitterment of humanity who receive as little return for such labor. They are generally men who, with their knowledge of men and af- fairs could raise hades in every com munity; but they are not scandal mongers. They know the foilibles of almost every man and ot many women, but bury them in memory, and do not hint their knowledge of such things to friend or foe.
 Many towns owe their existence to the newspaper. When you subscribe for pa- per, you do not buy the editor or the estab- lishment-it is the best investment you ever made. If you place an advertisement in one it will repay you 50 per cent, if you advertise what the people want. The edi- tor loves his home, his friends and his country. He may have faults, but they are generally of the head and not of the heart. When the dark pail of sorrow falls upon his community he stands by it and all that earthly man can do he does. In the hour of disaster he does notdesert his post, but tolls with Q strength that is almost herculean to uphold and upbuild. The newspaper is the salt of community. It denounces crime, vice and wrong; it praiseth and up holds all that is good. I is ever for the home and right. The newspaper is not charitable institution. It repays every in- yestor, doubly. The editor may make mis- takes and roay sometimes slipa cog, but he rallies, admits his errors and marches on to progress. Stand by the newspaper; it never betrays friend or foe. Littleness is unknown to the journalist. Money cannot buy the principles of an editor Right with him means mora than wealth. The ma jority of men imagine they know better how to manage paper than the proprie- tor, but they are mistf ken. It requires, brain, caution, manliness and an inherent love of honesty to run good newspaper. This is fact. C. W. P.
