determining to suspend Arthur, tried to
see which could send him the most hu-
initiating letter. "Gross abuses Of admin

Newspapers and Their Price.
The Folly OF TRYING TO PUBLisH A CHEAP
PAPER AND NAME Ir SATISFACTORY.

There has been some talk Of late in the
Kansas City papers, and others in that neigh
borhood, about cheap papers, caused by the
reduction in the subscription price to the
Kansas City Times and Topeka Common
wealth. We presume the proprietors of
both papers had some good reason for reduc-
ing the subscription price Of their papers

can now afford TO furnish their papers for So
per year they have heretofore been practicing
extortion upon their subscribers by charging
$40. That is the conclusion which many
people will reach. For some years the man.
ayers of the Times conducted it entirely upon
the sensational basis. This coming to an end.

paper on five dollars has been tried over and
again. and has always resulted in a back-down

him. No newspaper can long be conducted
on other than sound business principles. Ii
costs just about so much to run n first class
