IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES

The Keokuk, Gate City commends to
other newspapers its own plan which
is to charge "a fair subscription price
and produce as good paper as pos
sible with the means at command
and sensibly continues. "As a
rule cheap paper means poor
what it would be possible to produce
for better price. In the case of news
papers as of other commodities. the
purchaser generally gets what he pays
for. II he rays a fair price he may
expect fair article. II he gets daily
paper for 81 or $3.50 or So a year he
can not expect newspaper that will
compare with one published at bet
ter price Only inferior newspaper
readers care for an inferior newspaper.
Such readers are OF practically no VAL
Ie to advertisers as prospective pa
irons"
