Our readers will appreciate the
large amount of reading matter we
are now giving them each week.
There is not another four-page eight
&C lumn paper in the State that gives
as much reading matteras THE eau
CAsIAN greets you with this week
Then, too, sec what variety there
is in it and how choice, interesting
and valuable. Something for every
body. In short THE CAUCASIAN is
a complete family newspaper. We
challenge comparison with any other
local paper in the State. 1t takes
work to get out such paper, but that
is our business, and we are doing it
with all our might.
You will notice that the sch edule
of the &. +. q Y ". Railroad which
we are publishing contains every sta.
ton between Wilmington and Fay
etteville. The schedule that we con-
tracted to publish was a condensed
one like the other papers are publish
ing) and. did not give these interme-
diate stations, but we have inserted
them without any extra pay, just for
the convenience of the people along
the road. By the way we have been
asked several times recently why we
did not publish the schedule of the
w. & W. Railroad, a road which
with its branches, runs in and on
both sides of the county. But we
cannot afford to give the road $50. 00
worth ot free advertising, even tho
it would be a convenience to many
Of cur readers. In the past we have
published the schedule for this road
and been paid for it by annual, as
other roads pay for their advertising
This year when we called upon them
for pay they did not respond, there
fore, we of course, stopped their adj
vertisement and will not run it again
unless they make new contract with
us. With us all advertising is bust
ness and must be paid for.
We are asked every week by some
one, who "repOrts the news from
my section?" Our answer Away
is, 'ycu ought to help do ityourself,'
Read the paragraph at the top Of the
township column, and you will see
that every subscriber is or ought t.
