appreciated by many at each ofthesc points,
we have failed to impress upon them the
fact that we should be their mouthpiece,
their spokesman that in our columns they
should seek the means of communication
with each other and with the outside world.
We are willing, nay, anxious to be accepted
as the organ of your several interests and we
need not be supcrchargcd with concert to be
willing TO say that we feel that we are
worthy of the place. We can serve you and
having cndcavOrcd to do so IN the past, ale
ready to promise to cvlnCe even q greater
interest in the future, if you will take us al
our word, accept us rs your representative
and use us. We are not selfish nor do we
aspire, as we know we have been charged, to
have it understood that all there is of the
Noith-cnd lies within the borders Of our own
town. Naturally, with the failure of our
ncighbors to accept all that we offer IN their
interests, we have much to say about our
Own locality, but it IS because you have not
chosen to avail yourselves of all that we offer
YOU. The CLARION should he in every fam

were, the readers would see to it that their
several localities rcaped the numerous and
diverse benefits that accrue from frequent
mention of their needs and resources.
We will endcavor with the opening Of
anothe" year to inauguratc a new policy,
which will place THE CLARION on a wider
basis, exchanging ina measure its local char
acter for that of one more widely representa-
tive that is, we shall IN business like way
ask the people of tins section Of the North
end of the county to accord us their unani
nous support under tie explicit agreement
that every locality shall command our care
and attention. What we mean by this is,
that salaricd agent shall canvass the dis.
tricts for subscribers he will explain to them
the advantages Of having a newspaper heart
