The Graphic is eighteen years old
and this issue is Number of Volume
XIX.
Due to the advertising patronage
and an ever widening circle of read
ers, the paper is stronger than it has
heretofore been. 1t is the purpose OF
the present publishers to allow no de-
tericration in any direction.
The primary mission of newspaper
is to give the news. It must of neces.
sity give attention TO the comercial enc
of its business, too, for no paper could
long exist which did not yield a fail
margin of receipts over disbursements
But newspaper is in some respects al
individual. 1T bears responsibility
There should be some reason for its
existence aside from purveyors OF
news. If the community in which pa.
per is published is not better com.
munitl because Of the existence of the
paper, then the paper is not justifyine
it's existence.
