That the reduction in the price of THE
DAILY GLOBE will be fully appreciated by
the public is evident from the number of
new names that were entered on our sub
scription books yesterday. And it is par
ticularly gratifying that majority Of the

the very class we expected to reach by
making the reduction, and than whom
none are quicker to recognize the "live and
let live" principle.
On Sunday evening last about ten o'clock,
a large building at the quarries in West

especially the arrangement of matter which
gives the local and telegraph news on the

turning the paper, receives almost univer-
sal commentator. "Only keep on as you
have begun and you must prosper" was the
greeting extended from all sides, yester-
day. Advertisers, especially, see the ad-
vantage tn them of an arrangement which
gives important reading matter on each
page.
