YOUNGSTOWN
From Miburn tho express started en- route for Nor

tons All along the roadway the people, seeing the
flags flying from the wagon came out from their
houses, and were greatly surprised 10 ind
that they could procure copy OF the
HERALD at such early hour and at such
q cheap price. ssYou HERALD folks beat all crca-

MADISON. The arrival Of the carriages Morrist0wn
caused great sensation Never before had the Herr
AID been received there at such early hour. The
carriage wheeled to every Lending hotel the city.
The papers were Immediately thrown OF, ncwsboys,

places and through all the leading thoroughtares OF
the town. "r0m' mo knows him by any
other namely led the van OF carriers and the people,
waking up from sleep, found the Sunday HERALD at
their doors at pretty nearly tho price that they
could buy for in New York city.
To run this express through New Jersey, along the

They have been paying from fifteen mp TO twenty, and
from twenty up to thirty cents for their Sunday
HERALD. These prices are simply ridiculous, and
every pewsdealer WHO proposes them hereafter ought
to be repudiated
