To Our Patrons.

We have removed the Office of the Az
voCATE from Main street to Bridge street,
Canton, opposite Beloit Pending the set
tlement of the Railroad question, as to
where the McGregor road will cross the
Sioux, the business men Of this end of
town and of Beloit rendered us an amount
Of patronage that made it an object to &C.
cept. The members of the newspaper
fraternity we'll understand the necessity of
an advertising support, for the successful
maintenance Of q county newspaper, as
the circulation alone will not Of itself af.
ford sufficient recompense for the time,
labor, and material, devoted and furnish
ed to its publication. The field became
vacant upon the suspe nsion of the Times,
and its former patrons very generously ex-
tended US the offer that induced US to
change to this.locality. We have earnest.
ly endeavored to furnish our patrons with
an acceptable paper, and if not such as
they have desired, it is the misfortune Of
our limited ability, and not for lack of in
tention or labor
Approaching the financial condition Of
this community, depressed as the people
have been through unavoidable causes,
we have continued the publication of the
ADVOCATE without even asking the farm
ers Of Lincoln county for the amount of
their subscription but have left it to their
own will and convenience to pay. The
change now made is therefore greatly to
our interest, and those who are our friends
will kindly appreciate the act, and it is to
them we make this explanation.
What changes to either or both towns
