tending our subscription list. Just
now is the time at which people are
considering what papers they shall
take next year, so our sample copies
will be precisely Sin order" and both
on their own merits and the uneXam
pied liberal premium list--to be found
in another column--we are persuaded
cannot fail TO attract the favorable
/ interest of the class whom we aim to
reach. We respectfully solicit OF
them careful inspection of this
weeks paper, and the premium list
referred to, and trust the result may
be many accessions to our subscrip-
ton list.
We feel that the FREE Press has a
just claim on the patronage OF the
people Of Hays county, from the fact
that it gives by far the largest amount
of reading matter of interest from the
county seat, including full reports of
the Commissioners Court proceedings,
Real Estate Transfers, Marriage Ii
censes, etc, which no other paper OF
the county gives. In view Of all which
the question which should come up
before each citizen of tue county is not
"Can | afford to take the FREE
PaLss?" but Scan afford TO try to
get along without it?"

In the FREE Pass OF January rs,
1886, we addressedan open Letter
TO the people Of Hays county, setting
forth at some length the shabby
treatment we had received from GER
tain influences in this county for rs,
sorting the right of free discussion
of public men and measures in the III
terest OF the people. 1t therefore
seems proper that we should now say
to our friends throughout the county,
that through oar persistence that
right to-day stands vindicatod. We
think it will he a good while before
another attempt will be made in this
county to prescribe, bulidoze and
crush ont u newspaper on any such
ground. In this respect the FREr
Pass feels that it has done excellent
service to its SUCCESSORS and to the
