THE COl'VTSY EDITOR. I
j ,
it Many-S::;e2 Man of Versatile Ability j
Rtqiiired.
^ it it n >? '' rstnbli.'hed inct that
j ? . # rf !
oll'ir ...ration or lire are iu n
business 'act, more knowledge of
human nature, more push and ener- J
gy and more firnit ess required than
in the successful management of a
country uewspaper, and iu no other
bn-iiti.*s8 is philanthropy so system-J
a "aMy cultivated amd practiced.
Ordinarily a country' editor is a
man of limited means and in the
r very nature of things the highest
degree of business sagacity is required
tc make both ends meet.
* " u?\/l tliu
The garnering oi ucns aUU
writing of editorials are essential requisites
in getting out a paj?er, but
thev consititnte oulj a small part of
the duties devolving upon a couutrv
editor. He must of course procluce
a good editorial page and present the
happenings of the community in an
attractive shape, but, above all, be
mnst be a business ruau and never
lose an opportunity of getting a new
subscriber, an advertisement or a
new piece of jobwork.
While the business and the editorial
departments of the big dailies
are separate and distinct, the oountrj
editor"most of neoestity take ears of
- both and be almost always acquits
himself of the task successfully and
with brooming pride and dignity.
Unlike his oolleague of the city paper,
who, with all his ability and
I brilliant attainments^ is, after all,
bnt cog in a Urge wheel drim by
power over which he haa not the
lifhteat control, the country editor
is.the whole thing. Bat ia order to
be eaooeeeful he maet be familiar
with the affaire of hie paper to ite
amalleet details, eWeep out the ofloe,
build the Ire, eoheit baeioeee, eolleet
bille, report big fire or sermon.?
