The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1892-12-30
Personal AND CONFIDENTIAL.

The editor of the REGISTER was
born in Allen county. Every interest
he has on earth is here and he expects
to live here all bis life.
He has edited this paper for ten
years and during all that time he has
kept it standing up for lola, for Allen
county, for Kansas, and for the United
States of America.
During all that time this paper has
been loyal to the county, loyal to the
Republican party and loyal to every
business interest of the people.
1t has tried always to encourage
people and not to discourage them.
1t has slandered nobody, abused
nobody-nOt even its enemies,-lied
about nobody.
1t is not an organ Of hate or jealousy
or devilishness of any kind. 1t is not
built that way.
1t has never tried to prejudice one
class of people against another class.
Whenever any lola or Allen county
man of whatever party has shown de-
sire and ability to climb, the REGIS
TER has stood behind and boosted
him. 1t has not tried to pull him
down for fear he might grow too big.
1t has no brutal things to say of
anybody.
1t does not fill its columns with
spiteful and lying personal attacks
upon its business competitors.
You can take it into your family
knowing that it will always be clean,
and always on the side of temperance,
morality, Christianity and good citi-
zenship.
AS all these things are true, we ask
the people of Allen county to patron
ize it,
The editor of this paper expects to
stay in the newspaper business. He
has no idea of going into politics as a
business. His selfish reason for want
ing the office to which he has been
just elected was not the salary (S75.
year, or the honor (nothing), but the
help it would be to him as an editor.
He can make stronger and better
paper after four years in the Senate.
And the stronger and better the
REGISTER is, the better it will be for
lola and Allen county.
We already have a splendid sub
scription st,-about half the families
in the county.
We are after the other half.
The REGISTER costs only $3.50 a
year, and at that price it is the cheap
est paper in the county.
Our free "For Sale or Traden col
umn alone is worth more than the
price of a years subscription to hun
dreds of our subscribers.
1t is the official paper and every
tax payer therefore ought to have it.
1t will give full report every week
of the proceedings of the Legislature,
which promise to be the most exciting
ever known. You can't afford to miss
these reports.
There are only few weekly papers
in Kansas now that are better than
the REGISTER. Give us your support
and there won't be any. The REGIS
TER can be as big and bright as any
of them if it has the money.
Stay with us and we will give you a
paper you can be proud of. If you are
already subscriber, look at the label |
on your paper and, if you owe us any
thing, pay it. If you are not already
a subscriber, send us your name and |
address and $3.50 Tor any part of it), |
and join the procession. If you don't |
think you want the paper all the time,
send us 25 cents and get it during the
session of the Legislature.
Address all communications to the
REGISTER, lola, Kansas.
