It may not be brillant or crowd ed with great thoughs but fin ancially it is of more benefit to a community than a teacher or a ureacher.

The local editor, in propor tion to his means, does more for his home town than any other ten men, and in fairness, man to man, ought to be supported, not because you like him or ad Oregon asks Iowa farmers to mire his writing but because a local paper is the best invest* come here and buy land.
