4 Young: Editor Writes of
a Common Newspaper Ex
perieuce. I
Ft(m the LaGrange Graphic.
The following is an epitome of
the seasoned advice which in our
brief journalistic career of ten
days, our kind friends have be¬
stowed upon us. Those contem¬
plating entering journalism may
gather some ideas from it:
First Friend-—Be sure and
make your paper an agg^ssive
one, of decided views on eve 21V
qucstiou. The peop e don't like
wistiy-washy papers.
Second Friend—'Be careful to
oflelld no on e. It is best never
ta take issue upon any question,
^ preS erve the friendship
of both sides.
Third Friend—Be sure and in¬
dorse Cleveland’s administration.
FLe is unpopular, but it's going to
be the winning side after a while.
Fourth Friend—Whatever you
do,, avoid the mistake of defend
mg Cleveland. You wid full ii
you undertake that.
Fifth Friend—Give the people
the news at any expense.
Sixth Friend—What you are
after is the money ; maxo ail else
subservient to that.
Seventh Friend—Mingle with
the people. They like one who
is “hale fellow well met,” with
them.
Eighth Friend—Avoid the mG
take of making yourself too com¬
mon. You know tiie old saying;
“Famiiiararity breeds contempt.”
We are sure we will have no
trouble iu running the paper af¬
ter the kindness of our. friends to
Us in this respect. Really, though
to treat the matter seriously, we
appreciate the kind interest
which this advice exhibits, and
what we have written lias put j
been intended in a sarcatic % v\,
but m order tnat you may see j
wily your advice is rot aliygys
loilovved.
