"Our
duty is to keep the universe thoroughly posted concerning murders and
street fights, and balls, and theatres, and pack trains, and churches,
and lectures, and schoolhouses, and city military affairs, and highway
robberies, and Bible societies, and haywagons, and a thousand other
things which it is the province of local reporters to keep track of and
magnify into undue importance for the instruction of the readers of this
great daily newspaper." |
