Aii that a newspaper Las to sell is
its advertising »puce a.id all that it is
asking i» a lair profit on same. Every
article going uno the manufacture of
a newspaper from paper, inks and
machinery to the skilled labor has
gone up in price from 40 per cent to
iuu per cent in the lust four years.
The price of advertising should be
increased, but few country publish­
ers are able io obtain this increase,
as advertising is considered by too
many of the smaller town merchants
as a charity and placed in a spirit of
patronizing liome industry rather
ihan as a paying business proposi­
tion.
The value of the country newspa­
per in any community Is too great
and loo well known to the voters to
need further elucidation here, for it
is the heart of the community, the
mil l or of its activities and Hie lead­
ing factor in its development and
progress.
Few country papers are financial
successes as compared with other
lines of industry, few owners and
publishers are earning salaries with­
in hundreds of dollars proportionate
to their labor and responsibilities—
so why enact legislation which will
prove a hardship and oppress this
