TO DELlNQUENTS
Several Kindred Dollars Are Due the
DEMOCRAT.

Like any other business insti-
tuition we have our bills to paw
and we have no source of reve-
nue. other than the DEMOCRAT.
Therefore we must insist on all
who owe Us paying promptly.
In few days we are going to
send statements to those owing
us and we will not send them
out tor fun. but because we
want the money. If you do not
want one of these better send in
what you owe at once. Don't
think that just because the
amount is small you will wait,
Should 500 persons each pay
one dollar, and there are more
than that number owing us
that and a larger amount, we
would then be in a position to
make some needed improve
ments. We have earned the
money once, now do not make
us earn it again in collecting it,
but be prompt to pay. A
friendly rivalry as to who will
pay most promptly, is what we
would like TO see Don't forget
that you will get an urgent in
vitatlon to pay if you do not
pay in a few days.
