A LOOP HOLE.
Never mind the law, written Or un
written, which we can evade as easily a.
beating old Nick around the stump.
Another advantage which the Snatch.
Email possesses is that its publishers
are not permanent residents of this city
but are migratory birds, and when we
have worked this field to a finish, we
will move on to other green" fields as
we have done heretofore.
This proviso is intended to operate as
release from any and all responsible
ties on the part of the Council should it
be developed after trial that we could
not hold on to the job, when we would
stand fired. And this proviso will
also relieve us of all responsibilities
should " fail to carry out the contract
as the official journal of the City of
Shreveport.
The Snatch Email, if weakly as a
starter. will be prepared to meet every
exlgency of the city administration on
short notice. 1t will be strictly original
in size and style of makeup 1t will be
devoted exclusively to the city printing
1t can be issued once a week, on Sun
day or in the middle of the week. or
twice or three times daily, morning,
noon and night. 1t may be opened day
and night and be ready at all hours to
do whatever it may be suggested to do,
strictly as the official organ of the City
of Shreveport on sheets 3ox4o. printed
inside and out, or as I-page 6-column
folio, or as an 8-sheet, or a I6-sheet
hand-bill, or in any size in keeping with
the matter to be printed right away
quick, instanter, if not sooner
The Snatch EMAIL felicitates itself
on its record, which is as white as the
spotless snow from heaven, untrampled
and free from all communicating influ-
ences. 1t is proudful in its boast that it
has never black-guarded any enterprise
in the town, that it has never applied
to the prejudices of the classes. 1t is
non-political and non-sectarian, and its
character is such that whenever this
growing city shall be visited by capi-
tallsts and investors. the head of the ad-
ministration or the Council as a body
may point with pride to the Snatch En-
All as the official organ of the City of
Shreveport. whether its appearance be
as a 6xS or as 3ox44 printed with
out patent inside, at greatly reduced
rates. In tone patriotic and with words
full of gladness, the head of the city
may exclaim Here is our great
Snatch EMAIL, the only original and
the only sheet worthy the consideration,
the title of official journal" etc 1t is
a saver of money for the city. 1t has
been a check to the rapacious demands
of the press who would go,ge the city
for its printing.
Imagine then the hosannas from the
threats of the overwhelmed capitalists
and investors in SO practical demon
stration of economy!
Abroad It's 6xS or 3ox44 will not fail
to exercise its potent influence. Some
proposed investors. on beholding our
sheet 6x8 or 3ox44 may exclaim: IF
that be the official journal of the City
of Shreveport, and its organ is an indi-
cation of the city's size and its possibili-
ties, then Shreveport is 6x8 whose
boasting or pages filled with triple heads
in box-car letters in the Times and the
Journal are misleading.
Let it be borne in mind that in its
peculiar style the Snatch Email has
stated its possibilities clearly and fear
lessly. If it should be turned down this
time by Councilman Currie as he has
turned down pretenders for the city
printing, it will be up and doing when
the next contract is let for the city print
ing to compete with the sheets which are
always in evidence on short notice, when
the city printing contract is on tap.
Somebody has suggested the people
would-the people be when the
Snatch-'E En- All is in the swim as a
bidder for the city printing at regular
Cheap John Bargain price.
It's up to the committee, to the head
of the city and the Council What shall
it be? The Snatch EMAIL or the
Union Banner? Respectfully,
THE SNATCH-'EM-ALL PUBLISH
ING COMPANY, LIMITED.
