MEXICO A CITY.
Our People Loyal to Their Papers and
Can't Do without q Daily.

Col. Cook, of the Mexico Intelli-
gencer, has discontinued the publ
cation of daily and viii now con-
centrate his best efforts in publishing
first class weekly. We have done
our part with Col. Cook of the In
telllgencer and Col. White of the
LEDGER, to prove that daily papers
IN little country towns like Mexico,
Fulton, Columbia and Paris are a
burden to the people who patronize,
but as general thing, do not sup
port them. 1t does seem that tax
ing all the conditions into account
in Central Missouri, the competition
as result of mail facilities for St.
Louis and Kansas City dailies, the
highest possible circulation that can
be obtained, the want of daily tele-
graph news, and advertising pa
tronage, renders the publication of
a daily paper very unsatisfactory to
both patron and pubiisher.-Calla-
way Gazette.
Mexico is not to be compared to
Fulton, Columbia and Paris when
it comes to supporting daily paper
or any other enterprise. Mexico is
a city and not a village. Our busi-
ness men and public spirited citi-
zens would just as soon think of do
ing without their supper as they
would of sleeping without reading
their local evening paper. The busi-
ness men of Mexico are loyal to their
newspapers whether they be daily or
weekly. Our worthy contemporaries
need have no uneasiness about the
Evening LEDGER. 1t is one of Mex
ico's permanent institutions and
never was in more prosperous con-
dition than it is to-day. We would
like to see Fulton, Columbia and
Paris have daily papers and there is
no reason why they should not
have. Nothing contributes more
substantially towards the growth Of
live little town than a daily paper.
1t strikes us it is rather peculiar that
the Gazette should intimate that st.
Louis and Kansas City papers on ac.
count of mail facilities can outrank
local papers. The Evening LEDGER
proposes to give the news to the peo
pie in Mexico at the same time the
St. Louis and Kansas City dallies
give it to their patrons. We hope
that the Gazette will at no distant
day feel able to compete with it
contemporaries.
