The Editor and His Work.

In referring to the country press
in an article. Texas Newspapers
and the Men Who Make Them"
in Hollands Magazine for May,
Walter B Whitman says;
But it is among the small local
papers-the so called country
press" that the hardest workers
and the hardest worked people in
the newspaper business are every.
where found. They give freely of
their time, energy and space to the
upbuilding of their own communi
ties, more often than otherwise
without hope of any direct financial
returns. They labor untiringly
week after week month after month
and year after year, encouraging
the timid ,upholding the weak, Civ
ing faith to the strong, looking al.
ways to the building of new enter
prises.to the progress and advance
of their towns and counties.
In the daily field man may be-
come distinguished editor with
out ever sticking line of type or
knowing whether the rollers on the
presses are made of molasses or
cast iron-eaoh man or big daily
becomes specialist in his own line
and concerns himself not with the
affairs of other departments Not
so with the head of country pa
per who is most frequently publish
er, editor, reporter, advertising solic-
tor and business manager combined
In pinch he must know how to
lend hand at the case, must be able
to operate G. Wash. prees or coax
gasoline engine out of spell Of
the sulks. He must, keep in touch
with public affairs and at mo
ment's notice be ready to referee
dog ight,preside at political con
vention or lead a prayer meeting
incidentally be must keep the
printers supplied with copy, look
after his piano contest and collect
his advertising bills. "Pro Bono
Publico, with an axe to grin IN |
Fair Play" who wants to hit the
other fellow over the head without
making his own name public, the
editor must send away satisfied.
The man who drops in with half
column of free advertising "to help
fill up the paper" he must meet
with a smile, and to the com mittee
from the Ladies Aid he must ex-
plain-if he can-why two tickets
to the church social do not pay for
the insertion of IA reading notices
scattered among pure reading mat
ter. Above all he must have faith
faith in his town, in his people,
in himself. Without it all else is
vain. In red clay hills he must see
mountains of mineral wealth, and
in his sight alkali plains must
sparkle with limpid streams of liv-
ing water A dreamer? Perhaps.
But he hustles while he dreams.
Texas owes much to the public
spirit of the big. hearted, loyal ed
itors of her country papers-the
foot soldiers in her great army of
improvement.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-02-02

Yesterday afternoons cables stated
that fire had broken out in the hold
of the Meade, which was lying in the
dock at San Francisco preparing to
start for Manila. 1t was said in
that cablegram that three lives had
been lost in the fire, and that fifty
eight people had been injured. The
loss on the goods in the vessels hold
was said to amount to 100000. There
seems to be a discrepancy here, which
later advices will perhaps explain. The
Meade has been out of commission for
two or three years, and has only lately
been overhauled.
A private cablegram deceived in Ho-
nolulu yesterday contained the infor-
nation that among the dead in the
Meade disaster was third officer George
Wallis, who was we'll known and who
had many friends in Honolulu.
