Stsienent of Publishers.

In order to avoid misunderstanding
and confusion, we take this opportu-
nifty to make q statement now with
reference to certain contempl&t ted
changes In our annual club competition
to go into effect next fall.
Although 1t Is the distinct under
standing that the price Of The Enqui-
rer to subscribers on clubs is $1.75 per
annum, some clubmakers, induced by
the hope Of winning the larger pre-
miums, have developed a custom OF
giving the subscribers a discount OF a
few cents OF the regular price.
We do not understand that this Gus
tom is at all general. We do not un-
derstand that 1t is practiced by all our
clubmakers, or that those who do
practice it, give the discount off to all
Of their patrons. We do know, how
ever, that there has been such q prac-
tice, and that 1t has proved more or
less embarrassing.
The trouble comes through the fact
that only those clubmakers who are
working for one of the buggies and
who have reason to believe they can
win resort to this expedient. Others,
working for smaller premiums cannot
afford to give discounts Of any kind,
and their clubs are often more or less
hampered as the result.
Just what plan we will adopt, we are
not in q position to say at this time;
but we would like all concerned to
know that II Is our purpose to try to
break up this practice before the next
club making competition opens. One
plan that has occurred to US Is to re-
luce the value Of the larger premiums
and increase their number; but upon
this we are not definitely decided.
Another thing that we may do Is to
take papers that are delivered free In
Yorkville out Of the club competition.
There are very few weekly or semi
weekly papers now that attempt to
make free deliveries to the subscribers
in the towns in which they are pub
lished. The Enquirer being an excep-
ton in this respect. The expense OF
such free delivery is considerable,
amounting in the case Of The Enqui-
rer to something like Is per cent OF
the cost of the subscriptions.
For a long time the larger clubmak-
ers have been able to get good start
by picking up the local names with but
little trouble to themselves and at
much advantage over competitors.
This situation we have decided to cor
rect by adopting plan which Will
provide that local subscribers VINO
would have their papers delivered free
must give their names to the carriers.
Otherwise their papers will be deliv-
cred through the postoffice.

Graw, fourth assistant postmaster

cerning the condition Of the rural free
delivery system in the United States
the system as a whole Is In gooc
shape. There has been q marked
growth in all parts Of South Carolina
during the past six months. 1t is not
therefore, believed that enough routes
will be cut off from the state to dc
any material injury.

sented by Congressman Aiken, Johnson
and Finley, have filed since last July
24S, 243 and 241 applications for new
routes respectively. The 1st district
has filed 81, the second 129, the 6th 12s
and the 7th 205.
The largest number Of adverse re-
ports went to the 4th district, the total
being l20 while the smallest number
so, went to the 9Th district.
There are now In operation In the
state a total Of 634 routes, divided as
follows: 1st district 25; I'd district AZ;
Sd district 1876: 4th district 121: 9th

FRIDAY, MARCH IS, 1907.

- Secretary Straus on the findings Of
a special board of inquiry of the i'm
migration service, held in Baltimore
Wednesday, has directed the deporta-
ton of nineteen Of the twenty-four
persons taken from North Carolina to
Baltimore for examination. The peo-
pie to be deported are seventeen wom-
en- and. two men, all Of whom are
board found that they were likely to
become public charges II they should
remain in this country and recon-
mended their deportation. The other
five, two women and three men, have
secured remunerative employment in
this country and will be permitted to
remain. The case originally involved
nearly a hundred persons who were
induced to come to this country by
Thomas Costello to take employment
in North Carolina cotton mills. A
prosecution was instituted Of the mill
officials for violation Of the alien con-
tract labor law, but the case a few
days ago, was practically thrown out
of court, 1t being. shown that Costello
had exceeded his authority in max
ing representations to the immigrants
With the exception OF the nineteen to
be deported the immigrants are all
we'll employed in this country.

Letter to Rev w z Hurt,
YOrkyille g q


Rev. Sir: We should like to ask your
advice on a certain thing done: was
it right or wrong? We shall have to
state 1t, including the names.
d F Dreicorn is a painter in Hol-
yoke, Mass. John DOnohue is an
architect. Springfield, nearby.
Donohue was building, at Holyoke,
the Holy Family Institute, letting the
work by bids, as usual. Dreicorn got
the paint job; the paint was to be
lead-and-oil
But Dreicorn said to himself: lead:
and oil isn't half so good as Devoe and
it costs more money, what shall do?'
He painted Devoe; and, after the work
was done, told Donohue, saying: IF
that isn't better than any lead-and-o oil
job, I'll make 1t So
Was Dreicorn right or wrong in
painting a lead-and-oil job Devoe?
You ask how 1t turned-out. This was
six years ago. Now Donohue has an
other job there. a big addition to the
Catholic Hospital: and he doesn't ask
bids for the painting, but says to Drei-
corn: go ahead Dreicorn and give
me as good a job as you did on the In
stitute. That's the best paint job 1
ever saw"
The question is "Was Dreicorn right
in painting Devoe when he had agreed
to paint lead-and- liz"
That isn't quite all. Lead-and-oil is
expected to last three years. If Drei-
corn had used leadand-oil, there
would have been another job for him
or somebody else three years ago.
Was he right in losing that job for
himself or somebody-el else three years
ago?
The Institute took 200 gallons Devoe
and cost $1,000; the paint has worn six
years, when Donohue says 'it's the
best paint job he ever saw" If he had
used lead -and-oil, it would have cost
about $4,000 for the two paint jobs (siX
and three years ago. and be hungry
for paint again.
Dreicorn lost $1,000 of business and
took the risk of making DonOhue mad
and losing his business, forever: all to
save the Holy Family Institute $1,000
besides the fuss Of paint job.
Was Dreicorn right or wrong as a
painter: and which would you paint
your church, lead-and- oil or Devoe?
Yours truly
