Last week, for the first time, we were delayed in getting out the BEE on Thurs dny, and as consequence some of our subscribers did not get their Papers m- iii this week We shnli endcavor to be more prompt in the future and have the paper printed better than 1t was last week, we are using every means possible to have the paper print nice and clear.
 In our issue Of last week we presented an article relating 10 the change of the price of the subscription from ono dol- lur to one dollar and fifty cents, the same to ulGo effect January lat., l8D w." offered thc BEE To all new subscribers. and to those whose time expires neX, !. January for ono dollar, until January l5t. 1850, provided they send in their. money before next January. As preyi- ously stated we contemplate improving the BEE, and cHn only do so in propotion tothe response that our friends make. Our friends who now take the BEE will confer favor on us by sending marked copies of this paper containing our offer to friends of theirs whom they know do not now subscribe, and who may possibly not know of the NGwtovn BEE. There arc many persons in town who have nol as yet subscribed, 10 whom this liberal offer might be acceptable. A kind wort for Us, if we merit it, may prove benc- ficial and gain us new patron. Please remember that all our future improve mcnts are prcdicated upon your will and pleasure. A your servant VIC shall cn- deavor to conduct thi5 paper in q manner that will be for the interest of the whole people, guided, we trust, by spirit of fairness and justice. Our few months experience has taught us that the great est danger to us personally and the con tinuauce of the BEE, is the yiel.iing to the continued appeals of iuconsideratc writers who think that a newspaper is the proper cess pool to empty all their yials of wrath upon the heads of those whom they think need it. In some instances we have suppressed articles and items that we knew were not proper, concern ing persons not only in this town, whom we knew, but of others in other towns that We know nothing of. Yet in spite of all of our vigilance items have appeared that have given offence and we have been called to account for publishing them, when had we known the facts we certain .ly would not have suffered the items to appear in print. 4 joke known perhaps to only very few, appears in the paper and instantly the editor is to he annihaa- ted for publishing it, and the threat made as if the editor ought to know every thing which happens in neighborhood, or wherever his paper circulates, and should be able to tell every time when all item was going to make somebody mad We believe that our experience in this particular is the lot of every one who has the management of a paper, and the pub lie has but a faint conception of the editors trials in this particular. How ever we still live, and shall CT dcavor to do so, and publish the BEE to the best of our ability, relying upon the good sense of our patrons and friends to measure all of our actions with charity and cOnsidera- tion, conccious that publishers are not un- Ike other men, all or whom are llaDle to err. We are glad to know that many of our friends are satisfied with what We have done, and heartily approve of the proposition to increase the price of the BEE and have promised to continue their favors to us, for which we are sincerely thankful.
 Remember that the BEE can be had from now until January, 1880, for one dollar. Let us hear from you imme- diately.
