The following from an unknown
exchange expresses the sentiments Of
almost all country editors 1t is quite
surprising to an editor to have patron
come into the office and give an item of
news, and apologize as though his visit
might be an intrusion. No one is more
welcome than the man who brings
items of news, even If 1t concerns him
self. We naturally consider every man
who furnishes an item to make oul
paper more newsy and interesting q
benefactor. We hope that none of our
readers will feel the least hesitation in
visiting the Office, or appearing before
ns on the street with the request tc
publish such an item. The more inter
est we can cause you to have in the
paper the more your visit will be vel
come.
