THE GLORY OF NEWSPAPER LIFE
From far in the Interior of Alaska, at Flat, a letter
was received by The Gateway in last evening’s mail
which, though brief, was read with much appreciation.
The letter:
Seward Gateway: Enclosed find money order You
know what to do with it. The Gateway is the best paper
published West of New York. Yours truly, Jerome
Warren.
It might be appropriate at this time to say this is but
one of the dozens of letters of approval which have been
received and it is extremely gratifying to the staff to hear
these voices of approval and to feel that the paper is read
with such interest throughout the entire Territory They
are incentives for greater effort on the part of the staff.
To err is human. We have made many errors in the past
and expect to make many more in the future. But not
deliberate errors. Constructive criticism we welcome.
We might state here The Gateway subscription list is
jumping up by leaps and bounds which is the best baro
meter with wich to gauge whether or not the paper is
making good.
Just a few lines more about the glory of a newspaper
life. The stork disappears and we look into the cradle
and behold a male child. After running the gauntlet of
measles, mumps and chicken pox, he enters school. At
the age of ten he is a red-headed, freckle-faced boy and
the terror of the neighborhood. At 12 he is an appren
tice in a printing office. At 18 he has acquired two cases
of lone primer and an army press and is the editor of a
country newspaper. At 20 he is married. At 30 he is
baldheaded, stoop-shouldered and the father of ten. At
35 he is a corpse in a cheap birchwood or pine coffin and
a bunch file past his bier for a last look at his map and
they are heard to say: ‘He was a good fellow but couldn’t
save his money.’
But look at the fun he had! Printers and newspaper
men are known universally as being generally up against
it. But they stick to the work because they love it.
From Sandberg’s Life of Lincoln: “The entire cost
of Lincoln’s nomination, including headquarters, tele
graphing, music, fares of delegations and other inciden
tals was less than $700.
