Our Western Ways has ceased
publication. Gene Heath says in
the last issue that the main rea
son for discontinuing the publica
tion was the lack of support
Westfall is not large enough to
support a paper.
Many who have been in this city
in attnndnnce upon circuit court
took advantage of the opportunity
to register for the coming elections.
Still there are manv more who are
not yet on the registration books
that should bear in mind the fact
that the books close on May 15

our readers’ information we here
with giye them the secret of the
editor’s success: A child is born in
the neighborhood, the attending
physician gets $15; the editor gives
the loud tongued youngster and the
happy parents a send-off and gets
$0. It is christened and the min
ister gets $5 and the editor gets $00.
It grows up and it marries; the
editor publishes another long wind
ed. flowery article and tells a doz
en lies about the beautiful and
accomplished bride. The minister
gets $10 and a piece of cake and
the editor $000. In the cource of
time it dies and the doctor gets
from $5 to $100, and the minister
gets, perhaps, another five, the un
dertaker gets from $50 te $100, the
editor publiftes n notice of the
death and n obituary two columns
long, lodge and society resolutions,
a lot of poetry and free card of
thunks end gets $0000. No wonder
so many country editors get rich.

to the effect that stock losses in this
