TRIALS OF AN EDITOR.

Disasters Come Not Singly, Bat

* ? v
A ween or so ago our very competent
foreman, Mr Christian, resign- j
ed. The offer lie received was so
much better than we could afford 0
to extend him that, while loth to 1
lose his services, yet we could not ^
blame him for accepting the prop- .
osition made him. That was the J
beginning of our series of misfor- J
tunes, however. 1
As stated elsewhere in this issue, c
ilast Thursday, when we had printed
a couple of hundred papers, and
everything seemed to l>e running r
smoothly, suddenly and without S
warning?owing to the intensely 1
hot weather?the rollers (which au- c
I tomatically supply ink to the press) *
lilted and we had to stop. Im- f
mediately we wired two printers' 1
supply houses, only to 1* told that t
[ they could not repair the rollers and c
get them to us in less time than a j
( week. Meantime we had about
1,500 papers of last week's edition
with only one side printed.
We next sent a man to Dillon ?
The Herald, of that place, having a
press like ours?to try to borrow V
the roller we needed most. Editor ^
Jordan kindly loaned us a spare one,
but unfortunately our man brought j
[ back tin- wrong roller. His train
being late another whole day was
lost and we were no better off than S
[ before. By Saturday we managed,
by some ingenuity on the part of ?
the force, to patch lip the old roller
enough to print one page at a time.
We usually print four pages at a Q
time, so this process took just four
times as long an 1 the paper could j
not l>e sent out till Saturday afternoon
. 1
Monday we received assurance
from the printers' supply concern C
that the new roller- had l?een shipped
that day. (Monday) .which should *
have brought them to u- not later
than Tuesday or Wednesday. But ^
ftlie jwckage of rollers got lost in
trail-it, so here we are Thursday, -]
the paper iva<lv to print, and the
pre-.- out of commission. T

THE WHYS AND WHEREFORES
Appertaining to Not Publishing
Editor Stokes' Card.
Editor County Record: ?
On seeing the publication week
before last that the Lake City News
had been suspended 1 immediately
dropped you a card denying the
same. My denial did not appear in
your last issue. Kindly give it the
same publicity that you did the rumors
of suspension, and oblige.
Yours truly,
W S Stokes.
Lake City, September 11.
The card referred to follows:
I see my friend, Mr Bass, writes
The Record that The News is out of
business. It is true. My son, who
had charge here, is gone and left us
rather "balled up," but we will be
out on time next week and you may
expect our usual visits, as I will
take charge myself.
It was our intention to publish Dr
Stokes' correction last week,but out
of courtesy to our Lake City correspondent,
we awaited his letter,
thinking that he would probably
have something to say about it. We
did not get his letter until Wednes

day and it made no reference to the
matter. Meantime an accident in
our press room delayed the issue of
The Record till Saturday and for a
time it seemed that we could not
print the issue at all.
What with the worry and confusion
attendant upon this status rerum
and the responsibility of looking
after six or seven carpenters
trying to re-model our dwelling,
which, by the way, is roofless and
makes the interior a reservoir every
time it rains? we overlooked Dr
Stokes' card and several other important
matters.
We hardly believe our sin of omission
did any great harm, however,
since the re-appearance of the paper
last Saturday was itself the best evidence
that it had resumed publication.
We have thus gone into details,
as we feel that we owe our readers,
as well as the editor of The News,
an apology.?Editor The Record.
