streets were dark and empty.
A night watchman made his
rounds from door to door of
the downtown businesses.
Most people had been home
for hours, many of them
alreay in bed asleep.
But the lights still shone
brightly in the newspaper
office and the old manual
typewriter clickety clacked
away as the editor recorded
what action had been taken
at the council meeting that
night.
Soon, thousands of people
would read that story and
learn what city council had
done to perhaps change their
lifestyles, alter their busi-
ness routines or lower their
insurance rates.
They would learn how
each councilman voted on an
issue and who they should
contact if they disagreed
with the position a council-
man took. The people
wanted this information and
knew they could find it in
their newspaper.
That's why the lights
burned late in the newspaper
office, because an editor was
dedicated to giving his sub-
scribers a detailed account-
ing of just what transpired at
that council meeting. The
next night it would be a
school board meeting, the

How many times in recent
years has it been noted in
stories that a school board,
city council, fiscal court or
some other governing body
has gone into executive ses-
sion to discuss a problem, a
situation that probably
would be embarrassing? All
too many! If it is public
business they are discus-

conducted behind closed
doors.

personally speaking, I've
