NeWsp,.pe on Tine.

1t Is not always convenient FIR farmers and
those living at distance to paytheir subscrip-
ton In advance, for another yer, precisely at
Grafton Of this fact, we shall notstrike q name
niGn.
Now the Mzdisoniun i,too neat and
too good paper to be run upon any
such plan. The credit sysem is ruin
Gus to newspaper publisher. If pa
per is not worth payingfor, 1t is not
worth having. The truth is that those
who cannot make it Convenient to
pay their subscriptions in.dvance, gen.
orally find 1t quite as movement to
pay at any subsequent peiod. Most Of
these same men who desre to be trust
ed for their home paper can make it
convenient to send mony in advance
for Chicago and New YORK papers, and
never once think that thir honesty is
questioned or themselves insulted if
their papers from distance are discon-
tinued on the expiration o, the time for
which they subscribed and paid. Then,
again, great many good men forget
and put off, and a publisher must there
fore be forever following up delinquents
to keep his books any where near bal
anced and his paper alive. It is only
two dollars says A; ane B and C and D
all say the same thing. So it goes, and
the publisher soon finds that he has
claims amounting to four, five or six
hundred dollars scattered all over the
country in amounts from fifty cents up
to two and four dollars, which on &C.
count Of their insignificance, it will not
pay him to sue and collect, and great
part of which, on account of the care
lessness and forgetfulness of some and
the natural meanness of others, he must
therefore lose. No publisher can afford
to buy blank paper, at present high
prices, print it and give one-third or
of it away. Every publisher
should, in justice to himself, and his
worthy patrons, adopt the system of ad-
vance payment on subscription and the
dropping of every mans name on the
expiration of the time for which he has
paid. There are no facts to be consid-
cred to make any other course the best
policy.
