The Clay City times. [volume] (Clay City, Ky.) 1901-current, 1914-09-10
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1914.

After eighteen years and eight
months labors on the Clay City
Times, the paper Of our own creation
passes into other hands, and to speak
of this fact is a very sad thing to do.
We have reared our family half in
the print shop and half in the home
we have given them what schooling
they have in the newspaper office
and now to part with it and &C
into other fields of labor is like part
ing with nearest and dearest Friends
at home and going to strange land
! Our young manhood has been
spent irving to better our fellow men
through the medium of the press. We
have tried to not abuse any influence
OF our command. We have held n
sacred policy, and, while we have
frequently erred, we did it unin-
tentionally and unknowingly. We
have never sold a policy or receiv-
ed a penny's pay for an expressed
opinion of our own. We have, up
on the whole, religiously tried tc
conduct an honest business in ar
honorable manner We leave it with
our readers to say whether we have
done so or not.
NJ. P. O'Mara, fine succeeding edi-
for, is a young man very much like
ourselves, and has been brought un
under similar circumstances. He Is
no stranger to newspaper readers In
this county, having been editor of
The Winchester Sun for some time
past with the exception of a brief
period when he edited the Jackson
Times. He married a mountain girl
which, to a great extent. gives him
an attachment to mountain people
In every way We are sure he is
worthy the support accorded the
Times while under the retiring man
agement.
In writing these lines which may
be termed our valedictory. and is
such so far as the management, obi
cations and and remmerative bene-
fits are concerned, we are not going
to say goodbye because we have
been invited to-asist in the writings
of the paper at our will and we shall
make use of these privileges when
possible to do so and harmonic our !
feelings with the policy of the paper, /.
which, in the main, will he the same. :,
The paper will remain Democratic, |
ever so, though possibly not so radi-
cal along other lines as we have made
it, and possibly too, wisely so. I
We are very thankful to all our
patrons for what they have done to
establish the Times and make it what
it is. But above all, we are most
thankful to the God who made MS for
the health and strength he has given
ms to get the paper out each week
since the first Of January after we
came to Clay City from Spout Spring
from whence the paper came also.
We sincerely ask His richest bless
ings, which is only Christ-like
spirit, upon you, Dear Reader, and
upon us, for truly can none Of MS
prosper without His blessings or in
diligence.
