It is true that every mortal who has laid claim to the divine gift of infallibility Las made a- foel of himself. And that eneven Popes, for whom the God-lik- e dowment has been claimed by their followers have manifested human weakness and failed most when their pretensions wers greatest. But never mind. An editor shouli never make a mistake, never err in judgment, never publish anything but the exact truth. He should bo ubiquitous, know everything, please everybody. He Bhould pitch into everybody's enemies, praise everybody's friends, and, at the same time, give universal satisfaction. He should publish communicated rhymic twaddle and prosaic nonsense in such a way that, with a few editorial magio touches, it will appear as genuine poetry and the Msenco of wisdom. He should give the extreme grain of credit due to everyWhether body, and yet offend nobody. ill or well, lively or dull, merry or sad, whether anything happens or nothing, lie must furnish news for the people, write for their edification and amusement, and suit every carping critic who reads his productions. He must puff every publio character civil, military or ecclesiastical, musical, theatrical, or political, feeding their vanity and mtisfying the publio at the same time. He must remember everything, forget nothing, pocket insults and entertain bores. He must issue his paper with unfailing regularity despite circumstances, and wait for his pay till bis subscribers get ready. If he cannot do this, tod a thousand other things that no other man Is expected to do, then he is only common clay, an ordinary human, fallible mortal, and not fit to be an Editor. - A Word with Weber County. The importation of blooded stock into this Territory, which has latoly been renewed undcrthe agency of Jlr.Rydalch, will be a source of gratification to our enterprising farmers and other publio spirited men. We hope this good work will be continued. Our stock has been deteriorating fur years. Our cows are scrubby and many produce no more milk than a sheep, and most of our horses The introduction of the "Broncho" was not very profitable to the Territory. AVhcn we bum up all the disadvantages attending this wild and jumping breed of animals, and consider past loss of lifa and limb and present danger from these never fully tamed little beasts, we think it will be conceded that the "Broncho" is not a success, and that the infusion of good Eastern blood is far preferable. The Durham bulls brought in by Mr. Rydalch are huge animals, aud no doubt others of the same breed will toon be imported for various parts of the Territory, for the people here have a singular custom of following together what they think a good lead of any kind. But a little caution will have to be used in mating these big fellows with our little runty cows and heifers, r many will be lost in calving. Our stock cannot be raised to a high standard by a sudden leap, but must be gradually worked up to the desired tondition. What is the matter with the old Weber County Agricultural Society? Is it dead er only gone to sleep for awhile. If it be defunot, it ought to be buried and its name blotted cut, and a new Society organized; if it is taking a nap, it should be roused at once from its slumbers. There ought to be a good, live Society in this county, composed of farmers, stock raisers and ethers interested in theso important matters, who will take an interest in them, and make practical efforts for that improvement which our present position loudly demands. better stock, kindness.
