Editing newspaper is a nice thing.

fossils. If We publish original matter
they say we don't give them enough
selections. II we give them selections
they say we are too lazy to write. If
We don't go to church we are heathens.

remain at the Office we ought to be out

belief that the wholesome cor.
receive influence of publicity is
badly needed along this line.
Like all other classes of people
there are good, bad and indiffer-
ent travelling agents, and it is not
so much the agents as the peo-
pie that are at fault. We will
illustrate it this way; man
comes into a community has a
horse for sale that is worth prob
ably $50. He puts price of S75
or 500 on the animal and readily
finds a buyer. Is he to be cen.
sured? No, he made good
trade. Same way with the tray
cling agents; some are satisfied
with reasonable profit, others
are out for greed and graft, but
in either case it is the patroniz-
ing public that helps along the
cause. We do not advocate pay
ing exhorbitant prices even to a
home dealer, but if you can do as
well or better by dealing with
the home man you should do so.
You should investigate before
you deal too readily with an
agent. We hear that about so
ranges were sold by travelling
agents in Wheeler county, this
amounts to about $4,000. Will
anyone deny that the profit from
81, 900 worth of sales left in cir
culation i'm the community does
not help out materially the pros
