AS AN EDITOR SEES IT
The lay mind believes it. Lo be or
of the easiest things in the world t
produce a newspaper. Mow ofte
has been heard the expression: "If
was runninp this newspaper I'd sho'
'em what to print; I'd tell 'inn th
truth, without any fol-de-rols c
trimmings " Hut hearken ye, all en
hryo publishers, to the phiint of a
editor in Anoka, Minn. This pa
tieular editor on this particular o<
easion may have b'-en possessed of
prouch, for any on(; of ten thousan
different reasons but, in his littl
paper he has addressed himself t
"journalists and idiots" in this bit e
forceful English:
"When we hear some sweet seem
ed, two-leaped, loop eared idiot to
what he would publish in a paper i
he ran one, w,. wi ;h we could piv
him the chance to try it. There ar
enouph laws poverninp newspapei
to-day to make the job of editor
profession that, requires 20 years
hard trainmp to keep out of cotir
and an impo ibility to keep out <
debt."
Ah intimated, tin par'icular edit*.
may not. have been in ari allopethe
happy frame of mind, Wvertholes:
he had at. least a hazy idea of whn
he was talkinp about.
