Of all professionists and occupationists, I have greater sympathy for the editor of a paper than for any ore else. Now. this is not hot air, but true material?for an editor is the mouth, eyes, ears and nose of the county, State and nation, just as much so as these organs are to an individual. Close a man's mouth up ard what becomes of him? He'll famish and die for the want of having something to eat and say. So wi th the organ we call our daily and weekly paper, without needed suppt rt it will smother and die. I don't blame you for kicking, for kicking is like churning butter, the more ycu splash, the sooner will the butter gather. Whenever I pick up vc ur paper I see you splashing^at the cream while it is fresh. To not splash the cream is sure to spoil. It takes a good,bright, brainy paper to kick and keep at it#to have a good li"e paper. I hope you will keep on kicking until? every dollar that is yc urs will be coming your way. You m ver kick unless it is on the right side for your patrons and yourself, j So keep it up, you can't live without it. Buy you some larger shoes and le: 'em have it, for it is so much better for each subscriber to pay a dollar for a year's reading than for the ec itor to furnish thousands of papers w thouta reconpense?keep kicking!
