TO THE PUBLIC.
Under the most adverse circum¬
stances, we commenced the publication
' Advertiser, 10th
of the Cleveland on the
day of January 1880. We have, with
mnch difficulty managed to issue this
,
the 8th No.
We had been out of the publishing bus¬
iness for about twenty years, apd of
course we were, and are yet. “rusty,’’
-but we hope yrb will soon be .able to
get oat our paper jo circulation, good style. which
We have a good is
daily multiplying. Our advertising
patronage is rapidly increasing; and
now ail that is necessary to make the
Advertiser & success, ia for the people
of White county, who are already eub
acribers, to come aDd help us with the
small amount of one dollar each, and
also those outside of the county. When
this is done it places us upon a firm
basis, financially: and it is your duty to
yourselves, to yourcountry and to your
children. It would prove to the world
that yon are a generous and enterpris
ing people* JVhen ycxu have come up
to the support of your county paper,
you have Sod© yopz part, and as for us,
■ we are detorminejfl to do our part to
the utmost of our ability. We are
aware that we have secret enemies, who
would, if it were in their power thwart
our enterprise: but we expect to move
forward and do our duty, in a plain aDd
an independent manner, and if the good
labor, which we are satisfied they do,
we fear no danger.
vfe have Dot taken hold of this enter¬
prise entirely for our own benefit, but
for the advancement of the interests of
the country in which we live. Of
■course, we desire to make a decent living
for ourself and family: outside of this
jt is oar intention to build upourcoun
try—Agriculturally, mechanically, mor
ally, socially and religiously.
If has been, and shall oontinuo to be
our course, to denounce boldly and in
dependency everything that we know
to be wrong, and in the same manner
encourage everything we know to bo
right, having the word of God for our
g U i,] e
Feeling our inability as a writer, we
solicit correspondents on all matters of
interest to the country at large, and
especially to our immediate section,
We are aware that there are persons
in our country as well as in all other
countries, who take no imerest in any
thing outside of their own personal
gain; bat we know it is perfectly natnr
al for “self to be the more prom
nent object in view; but it is, neverthe
wicked ., , and , unregenerate „
less,
la conclusion we ask all to come
and heip us to build up a good news
paper in our midst, and to build up
county.

TOWN PRIDE.
Every citizen ought to build up his
own community. He ought t6 take
pride in seeing his town advance. . JEJe
ought to do all in his power to advance
the interests of ,tbe whole number, and
forego his owu personal whishes some¬
times. It is mortify ing to see the small,
mean, sectionel divisions that there are
in some small places. The idea of do
ing a thing for the bedefit of the com¬
mon good is an idea .that .would almost
be considered insane in some places.
There are places where every man is
for himself. No thought of the public
good is considered. No pride in a com¬
mon advancement. A town will not
build up materially uDtil the small,
mean, niggardly, hardfisted prejudice ia
overcome, and a spirit of broad-hearted
charity aDd liberality takes its place.
Selfishness always defeats -itself. A
selfish man is not a progressive man.
A town made up of selfish people will
never be a progressive town. Every cit
izen ought to stand bv his merchant—
trade with him, encourage him. If there
are lawyers and physicians, they ought
to be encouraged. If there are mechauics
there, they ought to be patronized. If
there are churches they oaght to be
built up, for the church ia the best
censervator of public peace in the land.
If there is a school, tha'Jschpol ought to
be patronized preferably to all others,
u0 ma tter what may be the likes or di
likes of parents. A man who does not
educate his child, does a wrong to that
child, commits a sin against that child,
that an eternity of tears and penitence
cannot .atone for. An uneducated child
is incapacitated for almost every occu¬
pation in life but t.c turn the sod. His
power to advance hac been ruined, and
the parents alone are to blame for ibis
uurighteous deed toward an innocent
being. Let every citizen encourage
every home enterprise. Let him first
subscribe for his county paper, and then
work for its advancement, and the ad¬
vancement of every other laudable
enterprise, and his town will grow in
many ways. Something else is required
of a.citizen than drinking mean whis¬
key and taking no interest in his town,
in order tk build up his town.
For The Advertiser.]
TEMPERANCE.
Seeing an article iu your last papi r
Eignod “Yonah,” calling to the hots to
join him in a temperance toform, 1
thought it would not bo amiss to drop
in a word or two by way of encourage
rnent.
There has been so much said on this
subject, that it seems as If it might
J of intemperanco ©xbausted; but tlie continually evil sonsequsnees looming
are
up before us, giving new items. It is
a subject that has too long bt®n nrg
lected by the people of all parts of the
country, much to the disadvantage! of
every taumau being upon the globe.
Now l ask every good citizen to take
the matter into consideration. Give it

cold charities of the world are the

effects of it. In short, it is the greatest
evil of the age, and what is to be most
