THE VOICE.
b r A N d o NJ,
THURSDAY. JANUARY 81, 1913.

To- PROPOSITION FOR JANUARY, 1915. 1T
"Larqe sales and small profits" is the cry of the
Merchant and of City Publishers Of Newspapers; and
believing somewhat in this motto, we will try tho
experiment for the present year, of putting the
Voice of Freedom at One Dollar, cash. per CopA for
50 numbers, strictly in advance, to all neto subscrb-
ers ard to all OLD ones who shall now pay up arrear-
ages due. AT this price, subscribers must detray
the expense of transportation except where packa-
ges Of ten or more copies are sent out of the mall
In this case whore subscribers will run the risk of
transportation, wo will defay tho expense. At this
price the money mast be sent free ofexpense 90 this
office.
With $500 subscribers who pay in advance, we
can do as well Mt one dollar per copy as We could
with 1900 at ST ,25 in advance; and it is with the
hope of thus raising our list that we make the
present proposal. As an inducement to those dis
posed to extend the circulation Of the Voice, we
will allow them to retain twenty per cent Of the
above new subscriptions they mayobtan, to balance
their trouble.
All responsible subscribers are authorized to act
rs Agents.
Asa further fnducenent for our friends immediate
ly to exert themselves for the above object, we will
make the following additional oiIor:-
| Whoever will procure the largest number OF sub
scribors to the Voice of Freedom for the coming
year and forward the pay during the month of Jan
uary, shall receive copy of "LARDNER's Scientific
| Lectures" in fourteen Parts-comprsing nearly
1900 pages of interesting and highly valuable mat
ter in addition to tho percentage allowed
Matters that will come before Congress during the
present session. and the Presidential contest during
the year, will furnish topics of vast interest to the
reading public, and every man should be furnished
with the facts respecting the war with Mexico ant
other matters which concern the whole country
The postage on Newspapers for 30 miles will proba
bly, soon be taken off, so that any one can afford tt
supply himself with chroncler of passing events.
We shall endcavor not to be very far behind on
neinhbors on the score of News and trust that who
ever subscribcs and pays for the Voice the comm
year will not grudge the cost. Who will take hol
and obtain the premium offered?
n. Is. Those owing for this paper for year G
, more will confer great favor by forwarding whs
is due, Immediately.

HEAVY EXPENSES OF LITIoATIoN.-ln connection
with the recent report Of the decision Of tho United
States Supreme Court, Mrs GAINES, VS.. combined
set of trespassers on hor title to lands in the South
west, we learn that her cost has been near Ninety
Thousand Dollars and that the case has been on tr-
al for fourteen years. She has at last obtained n
decision in her favor. and the expense sho hns in
cured can be hardly tithe of that of the defeated
party. Mrs. Gaines must have possessed good
share of stamina, and had good hackers in order to
have braved the force arrayed against her.
The cost attending suit brought for an infringe
ncnt of Letters Patent, which came before the U.
S. Supreme Cont two years ago this month"; n.
stated ut Washington, we thought pretty high, but
it was small, compared with the last case. The first
was estimated at fourteen thousand dollars. We

A coRREcT,oS.-In tho published proceedings
last weok, Of the School Convention held in this
town the week previous four errors occurred In the
proceedings. The most important error, was, the
omission to notice the address Of Rev. ]. NJ. ROCK
WOOD of Rutland. (This address was spoken of in
very high terms by many who heard it.) In two
cases Committee was substituted for Convention, and
in one case Palmer was printed, when the name
should have read Pollard (of Benson)
The Report was handed to the printers, by the
Secretary, and as we did not examine it before its
being set up and omitted to read proof by copy, this
accounts for the errors remaining in print We be-
cye it is not often that such mistakes OCCUR in the
Voice, and we shall endeavor not to have the like
escape our notice again.
