The country newspapers have had a very hard time in the past few months in making a living wage, due to the greatly increased cost of print paper and other necessary materials, and if they are to be forced to pay in creased postal rates in addition to pub lishing free of cost the advertise ments that the government shauld pay for, they may as well shut up shop. The margin of profit is already too •mall to admit of additional inroad^ We hope that our Congressmen are alive to the danger threatening the newspapers and will fight an in crease in the present rate. Since the outbreak Uf the European war in 1914, it has been a common thing for a man to remark, “Well, 1 know two that won’t go to the war— ■*• mid the iiibii tflify send for me.” However, the passage of the selective draft bill has put that expression on the blink.
