The Valentine News , whichn
started last September by W. E
Weekcs , suspended with last issm
Saturday , January 24th , giving :
a reason that he had received tl
least support from those wl
promised the most and that son
contributed only advice. This ii
dicatcs that "an empty wage
makes the most noise , " and woul
suggest a lot of maxims for tl
benefit of humanity , some of whic
we will allow the reader to amuj
himself with by thinking of thos
wnicli come to his mind bcfittin
' ' - tothe subject. Mr. "VVeekes ha
been working on the VALENTIN
DEMOCRAT at good wages bi
thinking the opportunity right c
because his head had been swcllc
by a few who had jollied him u
to believe that the DEMOCIU
wouldn't run without him , 1 :
*
struck. Without saying anythin
further about our differences wit
him of which the people care bi
" little , we would simply add , thi
Mr. "Weekcs failed for lack of su ]
port and want of capital principa
ly. It may be that he was tc
outspoken in some things to 1 :
. considered conservative. "We hay
an abiding faith that the people <
this north west are willing to d
" the right thing ly a newspapc
that comes to them , telling tli
' news at a reasonable price an
without attempting to force thei
to say UI don't want your paper.
There may be persons here an
there who will wonder why a pj
per can't be run without mone
and will never imagine that the
ought to pay their share or win
they owe at least , but there ar
people who pay and keep tli
. wheels a going. There is a morz
. responsibility resting upon ever
' . 'one'who profits by what a new *
paper does for a town to give
reasonable support though it is nc
recognized any more than fakir
recognize the prior rights of Sho
people who advertise and brin
the people to town for them t
work or a man who rides fre
while others foot the bill. Ther
are people in this town who d
the most kicking about hoi
the town is run that hav
done the least to make it wha
it now is. There are people wh
never draw an honest breath tha
are"continually ; howling "sto ]
thief. " A man who is honest onl :
within the bounds of the law ma ;
be known as the sharpest o
shrewdest rascal even though hi
makes a great pretense. Ther <
are also duties of a newspaper tx
its patrons and to the town ii
which it is located that are not for
gotten in this connection and w <
realize that some who call.the loud
ost for something to be done sel
: dom contributes to the expense
yet they are first to complain anc
find .fault and encourage revoli
and revolution or ' 'will quit one
store in debt and trade for cash ai
another after perhaps having been
accommodated for years. .
