JU ST A TRU E STATEMENT.
It co sts th e Item izer som ething like $26 every day
to keep ru n n in g . T his is an expense charge th a t we
m u st m eet day in and day out, rain o r shine, and it
m akes no difference w h eth er business is> good o r bad.
In o rd er to m eet th is co ntinual average expense, and
also m ake a living, we m ust do each year a certain
a m o u n t of business. T he sam e th in g is tru e of the
O bserver to a g re a te r o r less degree. N otw ithstanding
th e continued high cost of living, and the advancem ent
of prices along o th e r lines, the prin ter has held to the
old tim e prices, in fact has shaded prices m uch more
th an to adv an ce them . A tow n th e size of Dallas can
and h as supported tw o papers in good shape, and the
Item izer has no com plaint to m ake on th at score.
R ut th e business of th e tow n could not support a third
paper, n o r can It support th e tw o if any of the business
n a tu ra lly com ing to them be diverted in o th e r c h a n ­
nels. If th e to w n 's ad v ertising o r Job work is in any
way given to o th e r sources, th e revenue of the new s­
papers will be so restricted th at It will not long be |>os-
sible for both to do business, and one of them will soon
have to go under, leaving Dallas with but one paper
to do th e n ecessary boosting in order th at she may
grow and prosper.
No one can tru th fu lly say th a t both the Observer
and th e Item izer have not done th eir work full well In
th is respect. T h eir eu ito rs have averaged 18 hours a
day in th e endeavor to g!ve to th e town the very best
th a t ia in them for th e purpose of advancing each and
every in te re st of th e tow n. We have given unlim ­
ited space in o u r colum ns tu rth e rin g every efTort th a t
w as advanced to m ak e Dallas grow . We have epent
o u r m oney and o u r tim e in boosting all m easures of
public benefit. We have done o u r full duty for the
to w n 's advancem ent a s a tow n, and we have puffed
to an unlindted degree probably every citizen in it.
We have condoled w ith them in distress, we have re ­
joiced w ith them In happy events, and In every way
have we endeavored to live with o u r citizenship in a
b ro th erly fashion for th e ir well being and o u rs We
h av e n ev er charged ex h o rb ltapt ra te s for any of our
work, sim ply enough to justify its continuance, a
proht th a t every business m an is entitled to, o r he
m ight as well quit business before he com m ence.
O ur h e a rts have been in o u r w ork, and even w ith our
largely stretch ed loyalty to th e tow n and its people, we
have by econom y and th rift m anaged to install in Dal­
las two of the best p rinting plants th a t can be found in
the s ta te of O regon, and m uch su perior to those g en ­
erally found in a tow n or this size; also to establish
two new spapers th a t a re know n fa r and wide for their
excellence as local new s m edium s, and to which the
last editorial association pointed w ith pride as fit ex­
am ples of w h at should be the aim of every country
publisher and the acm e of success. If m e w ork of the
tow n th a t rightfully belongs to th e two new spapers
shall be continued them , the aforesaid good work will
continue and both ed ito rs will be happy with the
know ledge th a t th e ir efforts are appreciated. If this is
not done, the papers, one o r both, will be compelled to
greatly d eterio ate in th e ir new s and o th e r service, in
o rd er to m ake both ends m eet, and as a tow n is alw ays
judged by o u tsiders by th e papers it supports, this Tact
will resu lt to th e d etrim en t of the tow n and conse­
quently to every one of its in h ab itan ts.
The Item izer is not at this tim e raising any p articular
howl— w e are sim ply m aking a plain statem en t of facts
as they exist, aim ing to im press on o u r people w hat is
just and right In this m a tte r as one th a t behooves the
individual in te re st of every citizen an d the tow n as a
progressive com m unity.
