NOT OVER A YEAR.
Su bscribers Must Not Get Toe
Far Behind.

F8r BenlnO.
The issue of the PRESS dated
November 3, 1893 will close the
first half of the thirteenth year
of Its existence. There are sew
eral subscribers who are more
than a year behind on their SUBJ
scri,tion, a few who are more
than two wears. The manage
ment has made frequent calls
for the payment Of these arrears
and many have responded. You
cannot reasonably ask the pa
per to carry you longer than
one year.
In the issue of November 2,
there will be pasted on the head
of these columns small printed
slip, stating your arrears, on the
paper of every person over one
year behind. The majority OF
papers demand cash in advance,
and you pay it to the Republic;
the Journal of Agriculture and
other papers. Why not do il
for the PREss9 But that is noi
asked. You are simply asked
to not get more than one year
behind. A dollar is not much
and you can easily pay it.
If in four weeks after the no
tice is sent you, on your paper
your arrears are not paid t.
within a year, your name vii
be taken from the list, and the
management will ask you It
pay what you owe. We DO no
f desire to crowd anyone, but thi
will be our rule in the future.
