We advertised several months ago that
we intended to publish the death notice OF
any one of our own accord and without
charge. but when handed in by any one &C.
companied by resolutions or extended COM
ments of any kind a charge of five cents per
line W ii, he made. The same rule will be
applied to marriages as we'll What we
propose in this matter is that after we have
given the item as matter of news pub
ished on our own account we do not pro-
pose to publish every other persons or So
ciety's announcement of the same news
without pay for it. We run paper for the
purpose of publishing the news and not to
publish what every individual or society
might like to see in print.
