The home printers of every town
should be protected as nearly all
classes of business men are from
the inroads of canvassers from
foreign firms. A man who canvas.
ses for printed stationery should be
compelled to pay license to the city,
in the same manner that dry goods
men, the boot and shoe men and
many others throughout the coun-
try are compelled to do. It's very
poor encouragement to the home
printer when the very men he Ia
bors to protect from peddlers, and
the enticing advertisements of mer-
chants of other towns, patronize
these men in the printing business
because they can get the work a few
cents cheaper. Fairness is justice,
and we hope there is no one or firm
in this county who would patron
ize foreign printers and then ask
! for home protection.
