repeal of Internal Revenue laws, and
urging continuance of these efforts,
and approving their efforts to procure
modification and equalization of the
war tariffs, and finally expressed as

A BUSINESS PRoPosITIoN.

The efforts that are made from time
to time to give our readers new at
fractions cost money and we look to
them for the ''wherewithaF, to defray
these extra expenses. Notwithstand-
ing this has been a very dull year,
The SENTINEL is to be congratulated
upon the promptness with which its
patrons have come forward and paid
their subscriptions. There are still a
few who have neglected this impor
tant duty either from force of circum-
stances in some cases, and others from
force of habit. These readers are
lust as warm friends of THE SENTI-
MEL as the more systematic ones, and
can at almost any time cancel their
arrears. 1t is our desire that all our
subscribers stand on the same footing,
and to bring ABOUT this result, we
make the following offer:
We will PRESENT one of our hand
some Autograph crayons of Governor
SCALES to every subscriber who be-
tween now and the LIST of July pays
up to January 1st, 1887. We want
to begin the new year of 1887 with
clean books and we make this early
start to do it. After each account is
settled up to January LIST, it will be
no difficult matter for all of our sub
scribers to make their annual payment
henceforward as they become due. By
this adherence to business method, we
will be relieved of the unpleasant task
of reminding our readers of their az
rears, and it will allow us to expend
more time and money and energy in
improving The SENTINEL, and max
ing it even a more popular newspaper
than its present increase in circulation
would Justify us in believing it to be.

A NEwsrApER POSTAL LAW.

The latest postal law decision is to
the effect that publishers of newspap-
ers CAP, under the law, arrest any
man for fraud who takes paper and
refuses to pay for it. Under this law
it is dangerous trick for man to
allow his subscription to run on for
six months to a year and half un-
paid and then tell the postmaster to
mark it ''refised'' or send the editor a
postal card to discontinue the paper
Some OF THE SENrINEL's subscrib-
ers will do well TO take notice.
