Jasper Republican, Volume 1, Number 2, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 September 1874 — What Our Exchanges say. [ARTICLE]
What Our Exchanges say.
The Remington Journal has ceased to beBro. Johnson having taken his printing material, to Rensselaer, where he will supplant the Union by the publication of a firstelass Republican journal. Jasper county is at last to be supplied with “a long felt want.”— Monticello Herald. The Rensselaer Republican is received. It is edited by C. M. Johnson, a young mau of fine ability and good experience.— It is thoroughly Republican and takes the place in Jasper county of the Union, which has damaged itself materially by giving aid and comfort to the enemy. We hope the Republican may prosper financially and politically.,— Lafayette Courier. The Republican will make its initial ap-* pearance tomorrow. May it have prosperity and a long and useful career. Let all Republicans and'every body else, who can afford to subscribe and pay for one or more copies of the new paper, and lend Mr. Johnson proper encouragement for his enterprise. There is no other business in which the same amount of caprtatiynrrest—ed that docs as much for the welfare of the place in which it is located—materially, morally, socially, educationally, or intellectully—as a well-conducted newspaper; and there is no person in a community, neither the physician, the minister nor the school teacher, better deserving of liberal pay for his labor than the intelligent and consciencious editor. There is not an other institution in the land that is so important to the temporal well-being of its inhabitants, nor one whose loss would be more serious to the nation, than our free press. Patronize the new venture liberally.— Rensselaer Union.
