Notice.
Beginning October 1, 1907, the
subscription price of The Washing-
1 ton County News will be $1.50 per
i year. This rise is due to the fact
that the cost of everything that
goes into the making and publish
ing a newspaper has so far advanced
that the rise is absolutely neces
sary.
Print paper has advanced
from time to time until now it is
4 j cents per pound whereas it used
to be purchased for 2 cents. This
and other rises cannot be met
without materially lowering the
standard of The News which we re
frain from doing. That the News is
one of the best country papers pub
lished in this state goes without
saying and we feel confident that
our patrons will gladly a ide by the
rise in price which is imperative.
From now until the above date The
News can be had at $1 per year
and we trust that all will take ad
vantage of the hour and secure it
another year at the old price.
Editor L. A . Long of the
Hillsboro Argus who last week
ungirted the belt of moulder
of public opinion, will be greatly
missed. He will not only be
missed by his fellow publishers
but by a great many others by
whom he was held in the high
est regard as an editor and pub
lisher of a bright newspaper.

HIWE’S OBSERVATIONS.
OLYMPIC FLOUR
-
T he progressiveness of Geo.
Paterson, the baker, should be a
source of gratitude to the entire
city. T o o much cannot be said
in his behalf when we stop a
minute and think of the condi
tion the lots were where his sub
stantial brick building now
stands and is almost ready for
occupancy.
H e came
here
some two or three years ago and
started a small bakery in the
face of what seemed would be a
flat failure, but by hard work
and persistence gave us choice
loaves every morning since.
H e purchased in a short time,
the lots where he was located
and last spring begun the erec
tion of a brick building that will
accomodate four separate busi
nesses and which are all rented.
This is a record that Mr. Pater
son may well feel proud of and
a fact The News is pleased to
chronicle.
