for board that would give entire satis-
faction to everybody. They fill the most
important Offices in the county inasmuch
as they control the finances ofthe county.
Theirs is a responsible Office because from
many of their decisions there is no ap-
peal.

Every established local newspaper
receives subscriptions from large cities
which puzzles the publisher, but which
the New York Times explains as follows:
"a wholesale merchant in the city who
became rich in the business says his rule
is that whenever he sells bill OF goods
on credit he Immediately subscribes for
the local newspaper of his debtor. So
long as he sdvertises vigorously, he res
ted, but as soon as he began to contract
his advertising space he took the fact as
evidence that there was trouble ahead
and he invariably went for the debtor.
He said the man who is too poor to make
his business known is too poor to do bust
ness. The withdrawal Of an lad" is evil
dence of weakness which wholesale men
are not slow to act upon"
