We are holding “fast”
Coal ia still at a premium,
this is no joke.
And
The president should try the trust
tsure on his sore leg.
The A. & B. extension
small thing for Vienna.
Andrew Bundrtck is in Dooly
County jail. Now for George.
The strike in New Orleans has
been settled. Strikers winning.
Capt. R. P. Hobson, of the
Uuited States Navy, contributes an
article to the current number of the
North American Review in which
he tries to demonstrate that Uncle
Sum should have the most powerful
navy in the world. Some of his
arguments are new, some ate not.
The United States has thousands
of miles of sea coast and has also a
foreign trade which amounts to
about $1,500,000,000 a year. We
have u Monroe doctrine, under
which we are pledged to protect
South America- from European
aggression. We have established
American sovereignty over the
Philipine Islands—islands 6,000
miles from our Pacific cost. Other
nations are steadily'increasing their
naval armament und the United
States ought not to lag behind
them.
These are some of Captain' Hob
sons arguments, and if they are
not new they are at least intelligi
ble. One might inter from the
eurneslness with which this dis
tinguished officer pleads for more
warships that Uncle Sam does not
maintain a sufficient navy, to which
is adding from time to time,
vessels that have no superiors
the navies of the world.
As a matter of fact, the United
States navy, in point of efficiency,
second to none, and futhermore,
is increasing as rapidly as ctr-
cumstunces require.
The Atlanta barbecue Saturday
was “teched” lightly by the editors
of this section.
Candidate Pennypacker is culled
the Quay graphopone. Now is this
not disrespectful?
Whilst half the country’s on a strike
An’ takin’ all the street,
We’re raisin’ cane in Georgia,
But—ain’t it sugar sweet!
The News is having quite a lot
Of Complimentary things said of it
at the present time.
Senator Billy Mason is getting
warmed up now. and we may look
for "somethin’ doing.”
Let us try lo “help others”
others seem bent on doing the sume
A few factories wouldn’t go bad.
Now if the coal operators would
mgke concessions to the miners the
public would certainly tlmnk them
New York would not need to
explain their plutform so much had
it been made thoroughly Demo
cratic.
The Wuycross Evening Herald
kindly remurkB : The Vienna News
is now a twice-a-weelt paper and
good one nt that.
The Constitution thinks a ton of
coal offered as a premium tor new
subscribers would help many
struggling newspaper out of the

EDITING A PAPER.
Editing a paper, says a provin
cial editor, is a pleasant thing > If
the type is too large, it doesn’t
contain enough reading matter; if
the type is too small, they can’t
read it; if telegraphic reports are
published, some folks say they are
nothing but hash; if they are omited
they say there is want for enter
prise; if we put in a few jokes, they
say we are nothing but a rattle-
head; if we' omit jokes, they say
we are an old fossil; it we.publish
original matter, they condemn u/i
for not giving them selections; if
we publis {elections, they say we
are lazy—say we dare rot do other
wise, if we censure, they call us a
traitor, if we remain in our office
and attend to business; folks say
we are too proud to mingle with
our fellows, if we go out a bit,
they say we had better stay at home
and get on with our work, if we
don’t pay our bills promptly, folks
say we are not to be trusted, if we
pay promptly, they say we stole
the money.
