FRIENDLY ADVICE. , The Wankegan Daily Gazette seems to think it a great sin in its Dakota paper should copy word for word. one of the Sun’s editorials. Now it don'bseem tostrike us in that I way. We remember that while edit- ing the Farmer’s Review a few years ago some of our “brillant” editorials were republished in exchanges near- ly all over the world and they came ‘ back to us in our exchanges from ' India’and Australia and Great Brit- ain., Now it. never. occured to .us- that it was a sin on our part to write ”so good editorials that our fellow editors at the antipodes shoul‘IHuse them. A few months ago a 11111. ‘ burg, Germany, editor saw" one of our articles, translated and re-pub- paper. with highly complimentary remarks, or at least that was what we thought his lished it in his some German paragraphs meant. We frankly confess that we rather thought all this was someway complimentary to us, but perhaps we were wholly deceived. Moreover, it has occurred to us itorial as that one in-the Sun, and so It is said “know a " as that TheOazette can itself with this thought, that if it shall ever publish hastened to re publish it. to be a proof of genius to good thing when you see it, Dakota editor did 11tle11st comfort as good an editoral as that of the Surf this astute Dakota editor will ‘ hasten to copy it and then the (ira- zette will be in luck and honor.
