A FEW REMARKS


BY THE EDITORS OF


The Yorkville News.


DEAR READER :


We scorn to advertise; the publishers of this Directory kindly insisted upon our composition occupying a page of this book, to give it an air of respectability, etc., etc., for which we have condescended to allow them a small consideration, etc., etc


How fortunate that we were born just in time to publish a newspaper upon the first centennial year of our glorious Republic! and how fortunate it is that so many of you have an opportunity of subscribing for it! Just think of it, dear reader, and while you are thinking of it, we will tell you what our plan is.


We are possessed with great ambitions ; we want to publish the best paper ever known. At present we are publishing the largest paper in the county-giving news from all parts of the county and the state, from all the states, and the whole world besides ; give a story, a few poems, recipes for the women folks; stories for the little folks, and market reports for the old patriarchs.


However, it is not enough to publish the largest paper ; we want to publish the best ; have the neatest made up sheet ; the best corps of correspondents ; the most interesting news ; do the best writing ourselves ever heard of; and make the paper the best agent possible for the cultivation, enlightenment and sobriety of our fellow man.


And now watch us, and see if we don't.


FERRISS & BRYDON.
