EDDYTORIAL,

We git turrible sick & tired a
times from hearing some of oul
more ignorunter & illitterate sub.
scribers telling us how to run the
Bingville Bugle. Skeercely a VIZ
goes past without we don't git some
sujjestshion or other from some
buddy who thinks they know more
about running this newspaper than
we do ourself.
When we look back over our ca
reer In conneckshion with the own
er & proprietorship of the Bugle
we cant help but think that we
have did purity well in running the
Boogle to keep from running it up
the spout or into the ground.
Everybody in Bingvil1e who tells
us how to run this newspaper
coodent run the Bugle for 8 min
nits & make a sucksess of it, and
yet they are turrib1e free with their
sujjestshions about how it ort to
be did.
Cy Hoskins thinks that we ort to
have more births & marriages in
the Bugle. We agree with Cy and
yet how in Sam Hill can we do so
if there amt more births & mar
riages to report, we ask? If folks
wont get married we cant come
right out and say they have did so,
can we? No-if we done that we
would have SCOT for libel on our
hands, and goodness knows we
have enuff troubles as it is without
that. It's the same way about
births. If births don't occur in our
midst how can we say they do?
Anser-we cant.
Anne Hi1lyer, our loryer & leg
gel lite, says he thinks there OFT to
be more politikal news on the Blu
gle each week. It's easy enuff to
say that, but the only politicls
there is in Bingville Is at town
meeting in the spring, and we cant
talk about that all the rest of the
VI, can we?
Hank Dewbcrry desires to know
why we don't print somethink from
the outside world occasionally.
We would gladly If we could git
erny tidings from the outside
world, but we cant unless some
summer boarder brings it in in the
summer time or a City paper hap
pens to reach Bingville somehow or
other occasional. Besides we
don't calSilate that Bingville folks
is much interested in whats goin
on outside of Bingville-tfleir in
terest is all centred here at home,
