the carrier at Il II cents per week, and to
mail Subscribers at 5000 per annum. For
several years-since September, 5S-we have
been furnishing paper cheaper than any
other daily office 10 the State-outside OF this
city. The dsilies Of cur sister cities are fur
nished at IL . cents per week, and afford to
their readers far less important news matter
and less of What they DO furnish than the press
of this city, and In view of the heavy addi-
tlonal expense we have incurred in taking full
teegrsp hic disPatchcs-and also the expenses
consequent upon setting up night reports, we
feel justified in raising the price to the stan d.
ard Of Iowa daily news spapers--no more. We
wish our readers to rem ber that the arrange
ment takes place upon the beginning Of the
New Year and We trust the reasonable ad-
vance so made, will meet with no unfriendly
