HELP HOME TRADE.-The news
paper is, in very important sense, a
public institution. doing very much
for each individual, and for the COM
munity as whole, that receives
neither reward nor acknowledgment.
In view of this, it is certainly as little
as any man can do to give his patron
age to the local publisher, who is at
the same time nearly always job
printer and not to amateurs. Yet it
seems to be a growing custom for
business men to send their work
abroad. This is probably largely ow-
ing to the principle in human nature
which ever gives enchantment to dis
lance, and makes the prophet not
without honor except in his own coun-
try. The men who condemn their
fellow citizens for going abroad to
buy their dry goods and groceries
seem entirely oblivious to the fact
that they are committing the same
offense when ordering their CONNER
cial printing from some distant city.

now contemplate a change that will
be appreciated by customers of both
sexes. They are having sets of shelv-

ladies wear will be found to the left

will obviate the necessity, which
now exists, for ladies to pass down

ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS.
THE NEWSPAPERS AND PUBLIC
ADVERTISING.

Every city needs advertising. Its
attractions should be known. Its adj
vantages should be published to the
world. Nothing helps business like
PRONUNCIATION of truth. A good Gus
toner makes another good customer.
Reputation for fair dealing mnltiplies
itself, and the more it is talked about
the better. Now Martinsburg has all
the facilities of a business and manu-
featuring place. All it requires is the
announcement in a forcible way and
convincing way OF the facts of its con-
dition and growth. The best way to
accomplish this is to bring strangers
here, and to show them the city and
its industries, and to place them in
contact with our business activity.
Just here then is one of the many adj
vantages of extensive advertising. II
will be worth twice as much as it will
cost.
All the advertising many towns
get is done gratuitously by newspa-
pers. Many business men think that
the only purpose for which news
papers are carried on. What other
business or profession does SO much
for a town for so little thanks or pay.
The doctor, the lawyer, the merchant
and the mechanic work for liv-
ing and to make money. Nothing
more should be asked or expected OF
the newspaper.
A New York town appointed a
committee to ascertain the. cost of
having a description of their place
published in the city papers. They
found several journals that offered to
do it for from $500 to $500 for half a
page. Grafton and few other West
Virginia towns paid the newspapers
$25 a piece out of the public treasury
for booming" purposes. Martins.
burg papers do not ask even that,
but they have reason to complain
that what patronage reasonably and
lawfully belongs to them is given to
amateurs. The city laws provide for
the publication of the financial report
in one or more newspapers of the
town, but it is never done. The news
papers are expected to give full
praise to the town and county,-to
churches, organizations and educa.
tional interests, but when these same
objects have a little cash printing
to DO they give it out to
some one-horse concern or send il
away, because perhaps few cents
can be saved and perhaps not. THE
HERALD is working tor living and
for pay, and is willing to deal fairly
by those from whom it gets fair deal
ing. The city of the size of Martins
burg with no daily, and the past ex.
perience of consolidation and failure
show that country newspaper men
are not millionaires, but hard work.
ers, and deserving of all they get.
