But wo bad forgotten that Judge
Bleckley Is a humorist as well as a
philosopher, with a velu of satire
in bis humor; and it may be pos
sible that alter all lie was- slyly
poking fun at the poor devils of
the country press who are running
uewspa|Hira for glory in towns
which ueitber appreciate nor sup
port them. It may be that hit re
marks were intended as a satire
upon tbe ambitious politicians who
would use the newspaper as a lad
der upon which to ollmb into office,
and then kiok the ladder down. It
may be that the Judge took Ihli
method ol slyly digging into tbe
rilis of that class of people who
"patronize” the newspaper by tak
ing it for four or five years and
then never pay for it. In this view
of tbe case we regard tbe Judge as
second only to Sit Warren ns a
humorist, and advise him to make
a supplemental »|ieeeli, explaining
Ida jokes.
