Another Paper in Rockville.

Rockville has new newspaper.
There is nothing particularly new
about that as there have been sever
al new papers there i'll the last few
wears. 1t is rather fascinating for a
subscriber to take his paper from the
office and speculate on what name
adorns the front page each week
Lewcllyn Smith, now editor OF the
Republican Press, of this city, tried
for a time to get out a Booster, but
some how it did not boost and
Smith had all sorts OF trouble ana
finally gave it up. Then along came
a gentleman from somewhere, 1t Is
not known just where. and took a
shot at it. After awhile he secured
a partner. from Kansas, and they got
out a good. newsy paper, which they
called the Rockville News. 1t seemed
that the senior partner could NOT
stand prosperity and according to the
following story, under the heading
Death and Birth, in the Rockville
Review, successor to the News, he
also folded his tent and stole away:
with last weeks issue The Rock
Vile News passed out of being owing
to the fact that the man who was re-
sponsible for its birth took upon
himself the responsibility of collect
ing all the outstanding bills due the
office, that he could reach, put the
nroceeds in his pocket. shook the
dust of Rockville off his feet and de-
parted. In addition to his business
associate he also betrayed the gentle
men who assisted him to borrow the
money necessary to pay for the ser.
vices of the wet nurse who officiated
at the birth thereof, and left them
heir to the debt"
We wish the new editor all sorts OF
good luck and hope that he will be
able to keep the Review afloat tor
many moons.
