Editor County Record
am in receipt of your request
that pay over the sum of $12.75
for subscription and advertising.
I am surprised at your persistency in
attempting to make me pay this ac-
count. For three years I edited and
managed country paper and my
subscribers were of the opinion (ard
80 acted) that in subscribing for my
paper an honor was conferred which
more than equalized any expense
that I underwent in supplying them,
and I began to take this view Of the
matter myself, but before doing 80 l
had to sell out the paper.
Of course man must pay for his
house rent, groceries, etc. Should
he fail in this respect real estate
would decline in value and COM
merce be crippled. This Of course
should be avoided, but when the
public is being educs1ed and sup
piled with the news of the day this
should be q matter of missionary
work on the part Of the printer and
the editor and should under no cir
cumstances be charged for. This
was the view Of my subscribers when
I ran paper, and it is with pride
that I can say that my subscribers
were the peers Of any in intelligence
and morality, most of them belong
ing to the Methodist and Baptist
churches, whose Orthodoxy cannot be
assailed with impunityb by those seek
ins political honors or preferment;
hence it is not surprising that l as.
sumed from the preponderauce Of the
testimony that they must be right
and wrong.
Acting upon that assumption l
have heretofore treated your sdpplica-
tion with the oontumely observed, /,
but your opportunities hsve of late
become very annoying and as a con-.
sequence ! enclose check for your
bill-A that I think you are en-
titled for when you entered
the newspaper business you should
have known if you did not (and ig-
norance is no excuse of law that You
were expected to do gratuitious
business and that the honor of hav-
ing your fellow. citizens names upon
your list was more than ample COM
pensati9n for sny out lay of capital
and energy that you might make.
But to avoid the annoyance Of
your plebeian idea of compensation,
pay you up.
Yours truly,
