Country Trm.
The kandurdot Match 8th, dis
courses as follows on ilio trial, and
tribulations of t!i arerago editor of
a country nswspaper. Tony haa had
the axperiuncc, and is a competent
witncsi.
"We havtt lately ami a clipping
eoing tbo routxlsof tlio interior pw
etliug forth the many dillicultics of
publishing a country weekly papor.
WtiU there was a great iloul of truth
id the article referred to, we think
that ii hardly told the ' whclo truth."
There was no mention of the many
disagreeable accidents that happen
among the compositor, the lack of
tvee. and tlio non-arrival ol the
at '
source of most editorial ideas ex
changes. In small towns everybody
knows everybody, and ten chances
to ono everybody is ihitod to every
body, directly or indirectly. A first
class shooting scrape occurs, the edi
tor sharpons his Fuller for a full ac
count of it, "influential friends" of the
belligerents come to the snimtii .. and
announce that the item must bo sup
pressed. What is the poor editor to
do ? To persist m heralding to the
world that Jack Buckshot severely
wounded Bill Bowio would rrsult in
the influential" men taking their
"ads" out cf the paper, and in their
going about from store to saloon, get
ting their acquaintances to stop their
subscriptions. He must meekly com
ply, and blunt his sharpened pencil
with a hackneyed editorial on "The
Resources of Oregon." All subjects
of pubho importance must bu coquet
ted with; for ns all such questions
have nt least two sidrs, to bo found
championing any one of tliiin would
be at tho risk of making enemies of
all tho readers t( contrary opinion.
K farmer Barleycorn guts a local
pufF on his big turnips, farmer Pom
medoterro grows green with jealously
and forthwith stops his paper, The
editor of a country paper scarcely
dares mention a dog fight) through
fear of hurling the sensitive feelings
of cue or both of the canine propria
tors. Ho must esuhuw everything
that is susceptible of a diiVoiur.oo ol
opinion and throw nlMiis talent into
ediliorials upbraiding Hayes for veto
ing the Chineso restriction bill, or
artioles on his county's fertility nnd
universal pre eminence.
Struggling against such obstacles
to journalism tho journalism that
publishes all news within reach, treat
ing friend and foo alike, and having
opinions, dares maintain them it is
Indeed a wonder that our interior ex
changes oio ns truly interesting ns
they aro. Stripped of their taut
items, circumscribed in their editoii-
al limits, to malvo ttieir papers nut
only roadahlo, but rrlUhahlu is a mir
acle for which the country editor is
deserving publio recognit o-. W
have experience ! tho arduous duties
of publishing a i.oiueommittal week
ly paper, (in tho local dcpnrtinout)
and would rather a hundred liuuM
odit a daily of the most virulent type,
taking all tho risks of lawsuits nnd
black eyes. The nverngu renders
docs Hot appreciate the groat dif
ficulties under which such an editor
laboss, and if we have said a word
that will make those hyperciiticnl
geniuses who abound in evuy, vill
age, a little more charitable in tin-licensure
wo shnll feel that we have
at least been of some little good to
our unappreciated brothers of the
country press."
A Nolrwurthy Matirr.
Tlio two Senators wlio now rejiro

The figure head of tho Otcyonlon,
that improves overy opportunity to
beliltlo everything, nnd everylody,
that aro not in perfect accordance
with bis narrow and contracted vis
ion, goes out of bis way to slur our
representative in congress, lion. John
Whileaker. Tho editor of the Ore
yoniun, having secured honors, nnd
riches only by his wallowing in the
slimes of political prostitution, cvi
deutly thinks that an honest man is
of no imiortnico In the councils of
tho natiun. Congressman Whiten
kcr can point with pi i Jo to his ser
vices in this State, covering a period
of over twenty years, and can say
that during that time his honesty has
met with no question. Can tho edi
tor of tho Oreyonlun Bay as much ?
Wo think not, for if rumor bo true,
his political dealings have been dark,
and of a character which all honora-
blo men gladly eschew. The only
sympathy that n large portion of the
community has for Senator Mitchell,
has been formed by the unceasing,
and bitter attacks of the Oivoniun
upon hi-t honor, an I ability as a rep
resentative. By persisting in at
tacks of this nature, that oijan ia
