TO OUR HUBHCniBERS.
Wo bare stated a number of
times oar reasons for changing tbo
aabscrtgtloD pica of Tbo Press and
gtaadard to strictly cash in *d-
tuboo. gome of oar subscribers per
ststeatly faM to nndorsMnd It. They
bare beep aecustomed to paying for
their paper bt tho end of tbo year,
that is after reading it for an en
tire year on a credit, and they can
not see why wo bare gotten “afraid
la treat tbett’’ It Ub’t. frload sub*
oortbor, that wo do not 1
and baro
•trust M you

too ssany people already.

We know
ypot subscription aceouct is 9
footly good bocaaso you are an
boa set man, but there are hun
dreds of subscribers who wUl
take tho paper oat of tho office
weak' after week for one, two or
three years, and when a statement
Is mailed them they will oltber ig
tore It altogether or reply: “I
only subscribed to it one year, and
you hare been sending it on. I do
not, therefore, feel.that I owe you
ncythlng." Of courts the mere
fact that he has te-ken It out of
the office, read and enjoyed It, la
equivalent to his haring said “coc*-
tlauo sending me the paper," and
bo Is no morally bound for the sub-
eorlptlon price of the paper.* We
bare lost baadreds ’of dollarn 6sf
JUnt each snhacrlbers. Of court#
bo would rot say the seme about
coffoe, sugar, tobacco, etc, that he
bbys from the grocer. This he re
cognises as an honest debt and will
pay, but he does not seem to
feel the same way shout the pa
per. Of course it Is Just ss hon
est a dsbt, legally snd morally.
Then there Is Jhe subscriber who
really 11:4ended to take the paper
only for one year, but who forgot
or neglected to have It dUroutlnuct
and wh * * ml o feels he .'as leer,
imposed upon when he Is o* pec ter
to pay for It. t We figure that he
has a right to hare it stopped but
uader our former loose method, ho
wore we to know to stop Iris paper
There Is also the subscribers
who desires to pay in edrnnoe for
bin paper bat does not think of it
nod who feels annoyed by hc-vtng i
Mil sent him. w
And then there le the “deed bent
who will take anytking under the
•an, so long ns It is on a credit
aad who does not Intend to pay for
It anyhow. We ha.ve had ^neti 1 come
la and subscribe for three months
In order to get the paper started
knowing our policy of sending the
paper after the subscription has
expired, and who would finally hav
to cut off. Another ciesa of “dead
bonta" are thcee who will get In
arrears for a year or TVo years. an<)
then have their paper discontinued,
lied re-subscribe in the name
aome member of his family.
You have not thoughtr of all
these things as a *ub*cr|l>er. have
youf Hut If you occupied our po
sition you would change your •>p|i<-
Ion just as we have done.. We
know we shall lose a few subscrib
ers, but we have not explained our
position to a man who has not
agreed we are right. Nor will you
Jf you are a good business mau.
We have thought oyer the master
very carefully c-nd looked at It from
•Yery view point and we have Con
cluded this la the correct plan,
and we are going to follow it. W*
•hall know thr.4 the papera we send
oat are paid for. and there wrill be
nothing to charge off at the end of
tho year for less on subscriptions,
shall regret to lose a single
