than six subscribers did not get their paper
anc do not know whether the fault is with the
publishers or the postofice. We are inclined
TO think that the trouble is neither with the
publishers nor with the postoffice but persons
who borrow them to read, not taking any
themselves, and failing to return same.
wherever the trouble lies, We hope it will be
averted, as we know it is a great loss for Il
subscriber to lose even one issue of the best
county paper published in the state.
