a#pears that the "politics adjourn-

The war has b««n on now two years. The newspapers of.
Yamhill county hoped all this time that it might.end and that the
increase in prices in every line might go back to former figures, so
that the subscription price might be maintained at the present
rate. But paper and material that go to make up a newspaper
have advanced from two to three hundred per eent, and the gov
ernment is requiring the utmost conservation In the use of paper.
Among other regulations it prohibits publishers from printing ex
tra copies, sending free copies or exchanges, or selling the publi
cation at a nominal subscription price, or a figure lees than can
be afforded by the publisher. Also it permits no paper to be more
than three months in arrears. Salaries have also raised through
high cost of living, which further makes this advanced charge
necessary. Hence it becomes not a matter of choice but one of ne
cessity that we announce that after November 1. 1918, the sub
scription price per year «'ill be advanced 50 cents, making it $8.00
per year. Any subscriber whose time expires before that time
may pay. a year in advance at the old rate.
