of five cents per line will be made for
all local notices, advertising entertain
ments, of any kind intended TO raise
money for the benefit of any person,
church, or other society. To some
it might appear that church work es-
pecally should be done gratis. We
wish to say that we have never yet
been excused from paying to the sup
port of these things because OF having
gwen free advertising and we cannot
understand why newspaper men
should be taxed twice. When bills
are ordered no charges will be made
for local notice.
