TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.

Hereafter we shall drop the Mon
day edition of The NEWS, and on
Thursday next the paper will appear
in an enlarged form and different
makeup. As we intimated in re-
cent issue that W intended to improve
upon the present manner Of publica-
ton aud make decided changes, we
would state that this is our first step
in that direction. While the semi
weekly edition has met with great
favor among the people, we feel con-
6dent that the change will be still
better appreciated, and we ask your
kind indulgence in order that our as-
sertiops may prove themselves. The
size of'1HE News win be increased
to the extent O. eight full columns Of
the present size, and type Of smaller
face will be used. This will allow Of
detailed statements Of many occur
renoes lhasw have heretofore been
able TO give but brief mention. 1t
will also allow as more time to revise
and pfsI ae our work in order to put
it in Presentable shape tosthe people,
we shall also use superior quality Of
paper in order that the sheet mag be
preserved or handled without being
worn cut. Everything. considered,
subscribers and patrons will be the
gamers by the ohaDge-the paper
will be printed better, more care and
time will be expended upon it, and it
will contain considerable more reading
matter each week than two copies OF
the presentsize. It will be conduct
cd 10 the same mannar as in the past,
independent in politics, religion and
IN accordance with the principles Of
right as We see them. The outlay 10
effect this change is considerable and
will be increased in short time by
tas addition Of new and improved
machinery. We still maintain, that
IHE NEWS at one dollar year is the
cheapest paper ia the State. We
questioned very many of our subscrib-
ers in the county and they are deci-
denly in favor Of the change, and we
hope by this move to increase our
subseriptioh list from 100 To $500
and even more than that. Remember
our next issue will be Thursday.
