Hot Air.

You probably noticed tina,
there was some white space in
the REPUBLICAN last week which
"The Angels" claim they could no,
find shot air" to fill. Why, las,
week everything was hot air, so thick
you could cut it in chunks. The
truth of the matter is they missed
"the old man." for when he can
get to the Office it makes difference
writing copy, keeping books, reading
proof, making up forms, setting up
Jobs, and the ads which the business
men don't give, all takes time, a lit
tie here, little there, and these lit
tie things take about one person S
time in a print shop. The white
space was better than the boiler plate,
dead ads and hog wash OF our con-
temporaries, anyway, and we will try
to furnish plenty of hot air to fill up
hereafter.

Remember

When the REPUBLICAN is filed with
"hot air" we are setting more than
double the amount set by the States
man, four times as much set by the
Slower News, and fully as much, or
more, than the Leader, too much, as
it leaves little time for any thing else
besides typesetting and distribution,
We have four: pages, 20 columns, 900
inches of space, and as the basis OF
a successful paper is its advertising
we should have $50 inches OF paid
advertising each issue. then we could
get along in better shape, but we can
not afford to beg for patronage nor
abuse the business me until they
give it through fear, or 20 in debt
and then tell Mr.. Merchant to trade
it out, so to move out would seem to
be the only sensible thing left.

Il believe if a man or a woman
wants a divorce, he or she should
be able to get it without legal
