The Reason For Why !!

We know that this issue of the Press is not
crammed full Of reading matter and also that it
is trifle late, but it is not entirely our fault.
Last week, with the paper all ready to print
and one run started, the gasoline engine broke
down and new parts were needed to repair it.
A telegraph order was Immediately dispatched
to Sioux Falls for the needed repairs and the
office settled down to period Of weary wait
ing" We waited, watched, prayed, cussed and
tore our hair, but the Sioux Falls house had
neglected to put any serve" into their 'service,"
and the repairs did not come.
On Tuesday of this week the "weary wait
ing" became unbearable and war declared. A
scouting party was sent out and Mr.. J.L White
kindly loaned us an engine for emergency use
By Tuesday evening, with julius Hurley as chief
construction foreman, the engine was installed
and connected up and the wheels again began
to 60 around again, and the last issue was run
off late that night. But on Wednesday morn.
ing the new repairs finally got here.
1t was then necessary to put on the new parts
take out the borrowed engine and again install
and connect up our own engine. This work
was not completed until Thursday morning and
as result time on this issue is very short. We
hope next week to be- back on our regular
schedule again.
