A1.'10 ," Editorial Comment' The editor of The Advance has been critized by a few of his brother edi- tors because of the fact that he sel- dom runs an editorial column. We have been endeavoring to give the peo- ple a weekly newspaper, not emphasiz- ing our own particular view point, and no one can charge us with trying to push ourselves forward by means of oureown publicity. These editorial comments are often simply the writ- ing of one pen copied and recopied several times. On reading the editor- ial comment in last week's Kincardine Reporter and later in the Wingharn Times, one is forced to adrnit that these two editors write very much alike, for the items are in the same rotation and word for word. Neither paper credits the other with the cus- tcmary acknowledgement therefore we must try to believe they both wrote the editorial comment.
