The Phenix Gazette hits the nail square on the head in the following: No man who has the true interests of hls county at heart should fail to subscribe for his home paper. In encouraging it's publi- cation he is assisting in building up about him enterprises, the success of which at the same tune enhance tie value of his own surroundings. It gives him more news of immediate concern than the big city papers it talks for hIm when others belle him; it stands up manfully for his rights; he always has a champion in his home paper, and those who stand up for another should be well sustained. The interests of both are kindred and equal and must rise or fall together. Therefore it is to the interest of every one to support the home paper, not grudgingly, but in liberal spirit; as pleasure, not as disagreeable duty, but as an investment that will amply re- pay all expenditure.
