We intend to print enough papers every
week for all our subscribers and a few be-
ides; but during the past few weeks the
Increase in the list has very often exceeded
'ur expectations and, as a result, not
nough papers were printed to go round.
IS the single list is always mailed last,
ONE of our subscribers have had copy
i the So. Royalton or Randolph paper
nailed them as it was that or nothing.
Tow that the renewal season is about over
nd we can figure with some certainty on
he size of the list, we trust that there will
e no further cause for annoyance to our
ubscribers or to us from this cause.-ED.
