A Western exchange hits the nail
tremendous blow square on the head
when it remarks that ''The hardest of
all business enterprises is the publish
ing of newspaper 1t is not neces-
sarily so hard, but it is made so by the
carelessness, to use very moderate
term, of the subscribers in settling
their little accounts, Men who will
promptly pay other bills will neglect
or refuse to pay for their papers. The
newspaper business is no such 90
nanzs that the publisher can afford to
wait years for his hard earned pay. If
a paper ever misses the subscriber the
publisher is sure to hear of it, but in
many cases he may wait until his
locks whiten with age before the sub
scriber will come around manfully and
discbage his part of the obligation.
We presume that many who intend to
pay neglect it until the amount runs
up so large that it frightens them.
The part of any honorable man is, if
he cannot pay the whole amount at
once, to pay what he can from time to
time and thus reduce the amount un-
til it is all settled.
