Good Bye

10 all Things in TINS world tnere
comes a time to say Good Bye"
AS editor of the Monroe City DEM
ocrat that time has come to US
now. For more than twenty-five
years we have been Editor of this
paper. During that time we have
greatly enjoyed recording good
things of the people and the i'm
provements of the community
There has also been a sad side of
the question. 1t has been necessary
to write some things which made
US sad.
We have ever booster for what
we thought was for the best in.
terests of the community. regard
less of whether the idea was ours
or of some one else. OF course we
have not always advocated that
which all Of you have endorsed,
but we were sincere and we gave
you the same right to your opinion.
We have tried to do all the good
we could for the community. Like
all others of humanity we have
many times failed. All that can
be expected of each of US is that
we do our duty as we see it.
At this time we desire to thank
the citizens Of Monroe City and
vicinity for their liberal patronage
of the Democrat. The more they
have done for US, the more we have
been able to do for the community
, We believe that if the people
we're brought to realize how much
good newspaper does for a
community they would give a
greater patronage, because there is
no agency that can or will do as
much for any community as a
prosperous newspaper.
Herman W. Bell assumes the
responsible position of Editor and
Publisher of the Democrat. He is
a live young man experienced in
the newspaper work and we believe
will always be found boosting for
Monroe City and vicinity. We ask
for him the same splendid patron.
age which you have given US. If
you don't like his paper, tell him.
Aid him in every way and he will
do great good for the community.
He alone is responsible for what
may appear in the Democrat and
