ANOTHER WEARY TOLER DROPS OUT

In noting the retirement of Editor
WE. Morris from the Cuthbert Lib
eral- Enterprise Editor j. E. Brown of
the Newman Herald calls attention to
the constant and uphill struggle of
the weekly paper for existence. 1t is
perhaps no exaggeration to say that in
Georgia there is hardly one weekly
paper out of hundred whose cash re-
ceipts, after Office expenses are deduct
ed, pays the publisher anything like
respectable salary, much less a per
cent on the investment. The Herald
says
"The last issue of the Cuthbert Lib
eral-Enterprise contained the valedlct-
DRY of it's editor and publisher, Mr.. w.
Z. Morris, who after trying expert
ence of two or three years with an OPP
position paper in one-paper town,
acknowledges that he is all 'tuckered
out and says: 4 leave the paper a
poorer man in this worlds goods than
when | came to it.
Thus another weary toiler in the
country newspaper field drops out, and
no doubt he will carry with him into
retirement many bitter recollections
of the struggle through which he has
Observation-Disclosures of promises un-
filled, of hopes unrealized, of work UNI

the pity of it is the future holds out no

TOM wATsON's HISTORY.

Since the end of the domestic strife

Dawson Is Afflicted Also.

From the Albany Herald
There are a lot of people in AL
bany who are meddlesome. They are
never contented unless they are prYing
into affairs that don't concern them,
poking their noses into other folks
business. Some of these fussY and in
trusiye characters probably mean to
be perfectly honest and truthful. They
won't exactly take your money, but
some of them will injure your charac-
ter, which is infinitely worse. They
interfere with your comfort, they are
officious in giving advice, and they
make comments where they are not
called upon to speak at all. The home
ly proverb about minding ones bust
ness is rather rude, but there is good
deal of good sense contained in it,
and it would be we'll if it were more
generally needed.
