and he has never been able to give
any satisfactory reason for his antag-
onism to the order. When it was first
organized he endorsed it, but just as

with but little influence and we are
indeed glad to have this kind of ele-
ment working against US because it
puts the members of the organization
to work more earnestly.

The rule of the REGISTER office is
tO.discOntinue all papers sent to sub
scribers outside of Allen county at the
time the subscription expires unless
otherwise ordered. In a few instances
however, we have by inadvertance
failed to do this, and we find Oh look
ing over the list that some of our
foreign" subscribers are in arrears
for considerable time. We would
take it as a great favor if every sub
scriber who receives his paper in a
wrapper would note the date on that
wrapper and if he is in arrears remit
at once the amount due,-and year
in advance. If prompt attention is
given to this notice it will save us the
trouble of sending out individual
statements.
