Isos GREETING.


The year 1894 with its history,
successes and failures, It's joys and
it's SORROWS, its births and its
deaths, have all been recorded.
Now in the beginning of 1895 COM
menting on the Presidents Message
and the effect il will have on bust
ness there is a class of persons who
need watching, and that is the
would-be prophets, prognosticators
and guessers. We know of no
power, force or intelligence that
can see or foretell what is TO be, ex-
cept through science, mathematics
or natural law, therefore the COM
ing year is like a blank sheet of
paper. 1t is highly probable that
the earth will continue in its orbit
around the sun, hence the seasons,
the change in temperature, births,
marriages and deaths will continue
under the direction of the Supreme
Master of the Universe, therefore
the thing TO do this year and every
year mo matter what occurs OF does
not occur is to take everything
philosophically, and under all
circumstances and conditions pre-
serve serenity of mind and de-
pertinent. Don't worry over mis-
fortune or become too much
elated over good fortune, but hon
orably do your level best and let
fate, chance, accident. natural law,
or whatever else may be, take care
of the consequences.
We know that for more than a
hundred years the United States
has steadily progressed in health,
wealth and happiness, and we see
no reason why 1896 should be an
exception TO the uniform rule for
the century of years that has just
passed.
In thanking our friends and pa
irons for their support in the past
we desire to extend 10 them our
sincere wishes for their unlimited

CITY WARRANTS wOf

CITY WARRANTS WORTH FACE VALUE.
City warrants are now worth one
hundred cents on the dollar. Such
a thing has not been known for
yrars before.
During the past two years the
affairs of our city have been admin
is,ercd economically. No eXpcndi-
lures of public money have been
made except when absolutely neces-
sary. Expenses have been cut
down to the lowest possible notch
and we believe everybody is salts
fed The present administration
ha b zen one of business. No childs
play has been tolerated. One week
AGO the warrants outstanding
amounted to over SlOD but now
they can be "cashed in" for face
value and if all of them were paid
today there would remain in the
general fund of the city Il little over
500.
We want to say right here that
the fact that city warrants are worth
face value is a good advertisement
for the town. Such state of affairs
speaks well for the city council, but
the men who compose the city
council have conducted the city's
husincss in tlip same manner that
they would their own.
Taxes have been reduced some
what during the past two years, but
m unnecessary street work has
been done and this in measure
accounts for the city's excellent
financial standing.
II the people shall select practic-
ally the same men to conduct the
affairs of the city for the next two
years they will make no mistake,
but if they don't see fit TO do that,
then they should select men who
will guard the interests of the city
az zealously as those who will retire
this spring.
But the fact remains, and we
congratulate the people because OF
il, that the warrants of the city OF
Baxter Springs are now worth one
hundred cents on the dollar.
Remember this.

The Country Newspaper.

Mr.. +. o. Sturgis, editor of the
Uniontown, Pa, Standard, read an
excellent paper on THE Press, Its
Relation to the Public" before the
G. A. II. Post of that place, from
which we take the following
extract:
"The country newspaper has been
crippled because the editor was n
good natured, obliging individual,
who allowed himself to be handi-
capped by yielding to the mistaken
public notion that il was part OF
his business TO boost along every
body elsc's business free of charge.
The time will come when the man
who wants a notice printed in the
newspaper for his personal benefit,
OF to advance his private interests,
will pay for il, just as he pays the
merchant for his goods. The
boarding house keeper who wants
the paper to notify the public that
he has moved to another street, will
be charged regular rates for the
notice, Just as he charges his board
ers for their meals. The subscriber
who pays for one copy of the paper
regularly will not expect Il few
extra copies free occasionally when
something nice has been published
about him. any more than he would
expect his milkman from whom he
buys quart of milk each morning
to send him half gallon OF cream
free of charge every time he enter
tanned his friends M n select dinner
The church, or this, or that or the
other society that gives n benefit
entertainment. pays some noted
man a big sum TO deliver a lecture
will not think of imposing on the
newspaper by asking il to advertise
the affair literally for weeks and
then in payment grudgingly gives
a couple of complimentary tickets
To the poor editor who Is strug-
Cling to pay his bills and bring the
paper out on time. The political
committee which imports an orator
to speak for the party and candi-
dates. and pays for his service ana
expenses. will not demand that the
editor of the local party paper print
columns of campaign literature for
nothing, while in large cities the
papers print this for - or 30 cents
line. The teacher who conducts
prosperous normal will not expect
free printers ink To work up his
school while he pockets the tuition
straight. In short, the reign oi
newspaper dead headism will he
over, because dead hcadism will
come to he esteemed az unproies-
sional and as unbusincss like To ali
concerned, as it has been unprofit-
able To the editor.
