Abotft Supporting a
Newspaper.
Local
Ed. Independent: In this day and
age of the world it is the duty of ev
ery man to lend a helping hand in
the support of his county newspaper.
tThat 'business man does not? Who
can mibsuribe and pay lor a county
newspaper and not get the worth of
his money in a single issue? If a
friend was to write you a letter in
some isolated district in the county
and give you one-fourth the news
that your local tpfftfcr docs, you
would not only say "it is a pleasure
to read a letter from John" but yon
would be anxious to receive another
and you womlB. value each letter the
value of the subscription price of
.youroounty paper.
Stow tbo local editor can be looked
"on OS' tmesA. "He writes to us all
atfh week; tries to make lus letters
interesting. He does not devote
"himself to tbc place from which h o
'writes but tries to dbronicle every
9A. a a m m
item oi interest tnui transpires in
"tne county, and -much interesting
nd saleable knowledge of incidents
from all parts ctf the State and -'steed
exf ithe United States.
To "be msre an editor cannot please
Tsrybody, for evernirtta docs not
see nor think alike. Ho can only
narrate facts, and impart impartial
Tiews on different topics and though
o som6 they may seem superfluous
to others they are plaiuly expressed
Tiews. If your friend writes vou
a
long letter and chronicles his views
upon all subjects of import many of
them will not coincide with yours
VI At 1" .
men ngnin mo euuor naf; more
leitn which to contend than most
any other business men. He is
cursed more and praised least. If
ko writes on wttcle that coincides
with your views, you will say "it is
bis duty to do that," bwt il th arti
cle does not suit yo, yoa will speak
hard of him for it. It ought to be
the other way look over his faults
and praise him when ho deserves it.
What is the value of a country pa
per? No one can value it too highly.
It is the duty of every man in a
county to subscribe for his home pa
per, and to pay for it, subscribe for
it first, and then for somo metropo
litan paper. The man that does not
take and read newspapers is behind
the times. The intelligent man
W ll subs r'.bo for, read, and value
highly, newspapers. And among
them the first on our list should be
our county paper. We ought to pe
ruse carefully the advertisements,for
in them we often find something
worth twice the price of the paper.
We ought to try and help our paper
long. Let us send all local news
that may transpire in Our precinct to
the editor.
The Editor of our county paper
Offers to send it to any one in the
county, and wait a year for the pay.
Who could ask a more liberal offer?
Now, dear friends, let .us all sub
scribe, induce oar neighbor to sub
scribe, and keep the ball rolling.
Profjyeriiij and long life to the Ix
dbpkxdknt and its Editor is the earn
est wish of
Yours truly,
A GRANGER.
Columbia Academy, Nov. 8, 1874.
We note as an item of news that
will be interesting to all of our read
ers, that the man who found a typo
graphical error in a local paper re
cently was discovered out in the ru
ral districts the other day trying to
get a perpendicular view of the rain
bow. Wo say thisj to get even on a
number of mistakes and crooked
sentences swnicn appeared in our
last issue. But we will now inform
our readers that in editing this pa
per we do not expect to distinguish
ourself for fine writing. Our read
ers have enough of that in books.
What they need is the county news,
and thisu what we intend to fur
nish tbem in return for tbeir cash.
