THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER.
Interests of Every Town Require That
Shall Be Supported.

Interests of Every Town Require That 1t
Shall Be Supported.
1t is to the interest of every town
to support good newspaper, not
through local pride alone, but for
practical bushes reasons. A news
paper is constantly doing ten times as
much for its town as itcould ever hope
to get pay for-more than it could
charge for, if it would.
The more prosperous a paper is the
more it is able to do Show us a good
weekly paper, full of live local ads,
with Il general circulation through
out the county, and we will show you
an up to date, prosperous, progress
i've community.
Show us a community that persistent
ly proceeds on the idea that the editor
of the home paper can live on the pi''
that accumulates in the office, whose
official bodies think it waste of pub
lie money to throw him bit of pub
lie printing occasionally at living
prices, whose citizens have come to re-
gard it as one of their inalienable
rights to work him for long winded
obituary notices and in memoriams, -
with three inches of by mn book DO
etry at the end, to say nothing of an
OCCASIONAL notice about lost cow or
some cotton seed for sale. and we will
show you a community that is living
from hand to mouth and is always
on the ragged edge of adversely.
People ought tostop to think about
these things. 1t is important matter.
1t is their own good that is involved,
the welfare and progress of their com
munity, therefore of themselves in
dividualIy.
y local newspaper is absolutely nee
essary to any community. No mer.
chant, no grand jury, no town coun-
Gil that spends every year all that it
can afford with the home paper.
whether that expenditure is actually
necessary or not, makes wiser, more
pro fitable investment. They are not
giving the home paper something.
On the contrary, it is earning every
cent it gets and more, provided it is a
paper that is worth picking up in
the road. And if it isn't that sort of
paper it is usually the fault of the
town in which it is published.

many instances the reply of the Secre-
tary was, they say, no more than a

The officers of the Guards will not

Benefit A SUCCESS.

Threatening Weather, However,
Kept Many from Barbee's.
Threatening weather kept many
away from the benefit performance at
Barbee's Pavilion, Isle of Hope, last
night, but about $50 people saw Hurd,
the magician, do some clever stunts,
and at the same time helped the

A special matinee will be given this
afternoon at o'clock, and it is thought
that many will attend. The perform
ances will be repeated tonight, to-
morrow night and Friday. Because the
Casino will be closed to the public to-
night, it is expected that an unusually
large crowd will attend the benefit per-
