A West Texas editor goi tired of being called a "liar" because of an occasional typographical error or slight disarrangement of the facts in publishing a commonplace news item. In his wrath, he an nounced in bold-face black type as follows : "A lot of people in this town fall out with the editor and brand him as a liar when the ordinary human mistakes of life show up in a news paper. You have a little charity and fellow feeling for every man in town but your editor. You claim that you want the facis, and' d d if 1 don't give 'em to you. Read the next issue of this sheet and you'll see some facts with the bark off. I'll admit that I have been a liar, an editorial liar, ever since I have been editing this sheet, but I have never printed a lie in these columns except to save some body's feelings from being hurl. I'm not afraid of any of you and I'll he d d if I don't print ihe plain truth from now on, or until you get out of the habit of calling me a liar every time I make some little unavoidable typographical error. Watch my smoke." Here are some paragraphs, culled from the next issue : Jon Bennin, ihe laziest merchant in town, made a trip 10 Belleville yesterday. . John Coyle, our groceryman, who voted with the the Republi cans in 1896, and consumes more mail-order whiskey than any other member of the Baptist church in this country, is doing a poor busi ness. His store is dirty and dus ty. It is a wonder he has any busi less at all. R :v. Sty preached list Sunday nigt t at the Christian church. His sermon was punk and uninterest ing, except some stuff he quoted from Boh Ingersoll, for which he failed to give Boh any credit. He also recited a few passages from one of William l:lben Munsey's sermons and had ihe gall to palm it oil as his own. Dave Chartier died at his home two miles nonh of this place, last Thursday night. Dock Holder- i ness, who is an old friend of the i family, attended him a few minutes ! before he expired. He gave it out that D ive died of heart failure. ; That is a lie. Dave died from ! drinking too much of a very poor I grade of mail order licker. This i paper prints the truth. Tom Spradlin married Miss Cordie Meador last trades' at the county seat. It ain't generally known, but the marriage was brought about mainly by a Rem- ingien shotgun manipulated by the bride's father; Tom concludin' that marryin' was the healthiesi thing he could do until other arrange ments could be made. Roger Lloyd, the cashier of the Mate bank at Willow Grove, died Wednesday evening and was bu ried Friday by the Odd Fellows in Pleasant Mound cemetery. He has been taking this paper seven years and so far hasn't paid us a cen:; we thinking that he being a banker, would pay some time. We will sell the account for two bits' worth of fresh greens. Married: Miss Susie Scruggs and Horace Guftin, last Saturday, at the Methodist parsonage, Rev. James C. Williams officiating, The bride is a very ordinary town girl who flirts with all the travel ing men she meets and never helped her mother three days all put together in her whole life. She She is anything but a beauty, re sembling a gravel pit in the face: and walks like a duck. The groom is natural-born loater and bum.
