The whlskey manufacturers held a
secret meeting in Louisville last week
and formed an organization which Is
designed to promote the drinking OF
liquor They admitted that the SEN
timent against whiskey drinking is
spreading, and they mean to encour-
age drinking 50 as to sell more liquor
and so make more money. This is a
cold-blooded piece Of immortality.

Dear sir

snyder
Dear sir
If YOU Keep on we Will read nothing
but advertiscmts and Congratulations
on new subscribers your lllature puts
us in mind Of a school boy trying to re-
cite something and it turns out nothing
Can point you out dozen taht IS Com
planning about your paper.
The above scorching letter was re-
ceived from Msrtinsburg this week.
The writer forgot to sign his name
an omission that we would give ten
cents to have corrected. We feel bad
" over this letter-who wouldn't?
While we have been elevated over the
kind things that our subscribers have
been writing us, here comes our I'M
known Martinsburg correspondertand
drops us with dull thud-a regular
solar plexus knockout.
And we cant help but admit that
he is partly right We reckon we
have been Dragging a little too much,
and pride, says the Scriptures, must
have fall. As to the advertising, it
is the chief support Of newspaper,
and we can't turn it away when the
price is offered. If our subscribers
would be willing to pay, say, 81 90 a
year we could afford to enlarge our
paper and curtall the advertising so
as to give more reading matter. Still,
we doubt if this would be agreeable to
our subscribers, most Of whom seem
to approve of the price Of a dollar a
year and many OF whom do not find
especial fault with our "litature.
We accept the reproot in a meek
and humble apirit. We will try to
do better. Still, our critic must ad-
nit that he is getting good deal for
two cents week-a dollar year
even if the reading matter IS some
times curtailed somewhat by the
crowding of advertisements and our
"ltature" is not always up to the stan
dard
Our Martinsburg friend will please
take notice that We print adverse as
well as favorable criticisms.

The city of Charleston boasts OF the
first library in this country supported

purchase of books for n public library.
The Lords Proprictors supplemented
the appropriation later, and the library
was governed by officials appointed by
the Assembly, under the oldest library
laws of America.
In 1749 officers of Library Society
