BIZ these resolutions we are determined 10
abide. The interests OF the press recommend,
and our own interests require, an nllexibe adj
terence 10 them. Several Of the American
presses are driven into the English custom oil
ash pIpasltS. No class OF mea has lo>l more
ly an abuse of the cyeH sgsteat, than the Editors

t.,e transition from one system 10 The other. NOT

iors Of newspapers, throughout the Common
wealth, to publish at the head Of their papers
their rates for advertising and that they strictly
adhere to the same, and that these prices be al
WAYS such as 10 give fair compensation ior The
labor performed"
