The Villain Located.

Morocco Courier. On or about the 7th of September, 1893, we, in an evil hour, wrote a short article in reference to a certain editor who appeared at the funeral of a man who owed for fourteen years subscription. We stated in that article that the editor just previous to the coffin lid being screwed down, stepped up and placed in the coffin a linen duster, a palm leaf fan and a recipe for making ice, and we have never ceased to regret it. S nee the above date that article has been copied in various newspapers 17,000 times Some oapers publish it even at this late day and try to work it off as their own production, all of which makes us exceedingly we try. We’d give a thou sand dollars if we had never written that squib, and we’ll give two thousand for a guarantee that we will never see it in print again W. D. Harlow, late of the Monon News, made us a f aternal cal Friday. Bro. Harlow has not decided upon a location, but will probably buy out the only newspaper in Bremen, a town of about 1,800 population in Marshall county. #
