RE1IRES FROM
NEWSPAPER
George D. Litsey Resigns
Leitchfield Gazette.
In Parting From Editorial Duties
Says Some Words of
Wisdom.

Mr.. George d. Litsey, of Leitchfield
who for several years has been edit
or and manager of the Leitchfield Ga
zette, has retired from the newspaper
business, and will probably engage in
the baking business. Mr.. Litsey has
made. the Gazette one of the best
weekly papers published in the State,
and we regret to see him leave the
editorial field. He will be succeeded
by ID. L. Hughes, of that city, who is
a practical newspaper man, and we
wish both gentlemen much success in
their new fields. In his last editorial
in the Gazette Mr.. Litsey wividly
portrays many things that come into
the life of the country editor, and We
reprint it with the hope that some OF
our readers may be benefited by the
words OF an experienced newspaper
man. The editorials follows;
II the editors OF country news
papers were half as mean as some
people think, or seem 10 think II
they used their advantageous position
70 their own personal benefit and ag-
reimbursement. as they are often charg
cd with doing. regardless OF the Heel
ines and rights OF others; IL as It
appears to the uninitiated. they should
laoarate Innocent men with their
command of public opinion and then
'smiIe to see them bleed" IL they

fast, Islander stews for DINNER and
scrambled politicians for supper; II
their hearts and heads were really as
small as they appear 10 those who ar
not acquainted with the trials and
tribulations and viclssitudes which
are incidcnt to the management Cd a
eoutry newspaper; II they were all

dangerous? 1t is not the cold itself
that you need to fear, but the serious
diseases that it often leads to. Most
of these are known as germ diseases.

jorfty of cases it is quite the reverse.
In fact the rights of the people and
the welfare of their community is
always uppermost in the minds of
real editors. There are Thousand
and one things that an editor has to
think, of a thousand and one things
to vex his soul, rmffe his feathers
and turn his plumage all up the
wrong way, that we know not OF"
and never can know except you
serve term in a newspaper office.
Therefor, the maledictions which
you have heaped upon us, and the
ugly wishes you have made concern
ing our future destination when We
failed to mention the death of the
gray mare last week or neglected to
state that Nancy had beau Sunday,
we will repay with the ungrateful
hope that some day it may fall to
your lot to be Editor and Manager Of
country newspaper.
For the stands We have taken on
public questions and for the political
principles we have advocated, We
have no apologies TO Make We be-
lieve in the eternal principles of Demo-
cracy and have maintained an editorial
policy with a vlaw to fostering these
truths and advancing the Democratic
cause in our county. We have never
maintained a tender-foot policy, but
have usually said about what we
thought. Be believe that to remain
silent when duty bids us speak is as
bad as to put our nose in other peo-
pies affairs. With so many people
and so many minds and so widely di-
vergant interests and views, ii Of
ten becomes necessary, In order to
promote the best interests OF the mos
people, to incur the Ill will Of soiie.
If III has been our misfortune 10 incur
the enmity of any. we certainly deep
ly regret 1t, and will say in the lam
guage OF the old darlxey's prayer, III
forgive you, If you'll forgive ME"
Taken in all the editors hot Is a
hard one. And yet 1t has a strange
fascination and peculiar charm that
makes one loath TO give 1t up. Pos
sibly there Is no other Individual in
community who contributes so
much TO the benefit of the general
public and receivs SO little recon-
pense, either in expressed apprecia-
tion Of his endeavors or the actual
wherewithal necessary 10 psrpetuate
an existance. His vocation. there
fore. may be justly summed up as a
business from which one derives
little means but much recreation and
experience

SURGERY OF
The FUTURE
Blind Will be Given Light and
worn-0ut Hearts Re-
paired.

DR.. Maurice II. Richardson, the no
ted surgeon, took very optimistic
view Of the future OF his profession
In talk given to-day in the Harvard
Medical School series of free lectunss
when he said possibly the surgeons
may yet be able to give sight to tho
blind, to furnish hearing for the deaf
and even to give new life to a heart
that has nearly stepped beating from
valvular obstruction.
He also limited that 1t is not inn
possible that some day healthy human
Kidneys may by some sort of cold
storage or other preservative means
be kept till needed and then substi-
tuted by the surgeon for the WORM
out and useless kidneys of some pa
tient, who may then recover.
He said that whereas cancer is al
ways durable by the surgeon II he
be given the opportunity early enough
not one in 80 cases of cancer of the
stomach and not one i'm one hundred
of certain other kinds of internal cam
Ger reach the knowledge of the sur
geon early enough OF save the suffer-
err The one thing above all others
that has hitherto defied the surgeon,
he said, has been obstruction of the
circulation of the blood, located in
either the arteries or in the valves of
the heart, but the wonderful things
accomplished by DR.. Carrel, in New
York by putting clamp on the heart
the speaker believed opensd up a
wonderful vista of possibilities for
the future of surgery.
If some way can be found to clear
out an INSTRUCTED valve, he asserted,
a man who finds it almost impossible
to mount one fight of stairs would
be just as well as anybody else as
soon as the obstruction of his blood
circulation was removed.
An interesting statement by Doctor
Richardson was that cancer on the
lip was quite common and is usually
due to smoking clay pipe, the stem
of which sticks to the lip and re-
moves a portion of the membrane,
forming the seat for the cancer
on the lip, owing to the ten
dency of the paper to stick to the
| hp.-New York World.
