They will, therefore, wr are sure, excuse us for indulging in a bit of it no. We know quite well 1 hat it is not the custom of up-to-date journalism to intrude upon its reader w ith anything connected w ith its business. If the publH-ation is making money, welt and g"ol. that's the publisher s business. If its -ing money, that is likewise to be kept to itself. But we aspire to be only county weekly, and therefore do as we please. Nut ' I raid a Little Bit. Aliout the most vigorous piece of llea.-.paper l''.nglih we have mrn for some lime is from the Augusta Chron icle, which paper the bar-rooms of Augusta llirc.ilened to boycott U faiisc it advivated raising the license f.v from X to sl.(HK). Here is what the Chronicle says : 'Ttoycott? Ilovcott and lieilainneil ail 01 ymi : h iiat, in (iikI s name, is the average bar-room worth to a re spivtalile newspaper, anvwav?

I )o you dare stand up and draw such a weainiii against decent public opinion when you are costing every legitimate business enterprise in this community dollars where von lire spending dimes with them? In his speech here the other night, Jlr McCall said that when he ran 1 for the mayorship of Charlotte the t'nion county folks living in that town turned out in surprising num.- Nth and voted for him. We don't know how they vote away from home, but we do know that then1 is many a son of I nion living without our borders, and just as soon as they get over the "homing wpek at Greens boro, we are going to start up a re union for self-exiled natives of this county. On the first page is a paragraph from the. Charlotte Observer refer ring to the report that one Hyder, claiming to be a preacher in Mitchell county, had five wives. This man and the fifth woman claiming to be his wife are now under arrest at Ma rion, says an Ashevillc prcial, on the charge of having murdered their baby, five month old. The puzzle to us ii why people countenance such creatures as this enough to make it profitable for them to pretend to preach.

The paier that we are making cannot be made for less. Ibis it hurt us? Not with am sensible man after the matter was xplaiiicd. Only one man has .put le got mad Uvause we couldn't make an exception in his case and said he would have all his neighbors to int. Rut so far the neighbors haven't done so, and the man is doubtless ashamed of himself before now Sensible neighbors don't act at the suggestion of a man who has spleen We are not Niasting when we say that the men who subsenlie for this paper and pay for it do so Uvause they like to read it. And we U-hexe that uinety-iiiiie out of a hundred of them w ill agree with us thai its tiftv- two visits each year are worth one dollar. We are proud of the list of names of Cuion county ieopc that stay on our lumks from jear to year Some of them have lnvn with us from the very beginning We want them to stay. There arises a certain attachment between the publisher of and the suhscrilicr to a county pa r, though thev inav never nun ! face U face. The editor knows that th. subscrils r is fond of the paper lie cause he keeps taking it. and he 111 turn lieeomes fond of the man whoi fond of him.

It amis to make more The ambition of its publishers is t. inaKt it an ideal nome paiier. one that will interest lis readers ami lull its tow n and county in every mssibl wav. it wants to lie a worthv ilw er 111 the county of its habitat. Il wants to fairly and fully represent the needs of its locality. It hasn't come up to the full mark of this Ingli calling yet. but it is endeavoring to climb. Any help that its readers and subscriber can give without incon vciiienee to themselves will be apple ciatcd. All item of new, a bit of criticism or a word of encourage ment, or a good word to a worthy neighbor who doesn't now take it, would not lie out of place. Mind, we said a word of criticism -- we meant il, too. We have never fancied ourselves perfect. When this paiier was established over nine years ago, ieople said that it cou 1.1 11 1 go. that there was no room for it. Hut like most enterprises of a worthy nature, it has made a place tor itseir.

The kindness with which we have been treated by all was al most a surprise to us we hardlv knew there was so much of this irreat quality in the world.
