A List Of the Good People Who Have Sub
sCribed Since Last Rsport.
The following list of good peo.
pie is published, not for the pur-
pose Of Dragging, but merely to
show our appreciation of their pat
ronage and, also, to show that the
paper is somewhat appreciated by
many of our very best citizens.
The WATcHMAN does some
things as a conscientious duty. It
may not always be right, but it
acts with good intentions, and will
stand by it's honest convictions If
every name on it's list should be
discontinued. This is not said
boastingly by no means, but is
notice, to those who would throt-
tie it's efforts in behalf of prohibi-
ton, that it does not intend to be
throttled and that the few old
soaks and "booze fighters who
think they can cause it to leave
the path Of duty because they stop
their subscriptions, r simply
beating the wind and. wasting
time.
The editor does not usually
make use of personal letters, nor
does he ask any one why he dis
continued his subscription, that
is the subscribers right-stop
when he pleases, for any cause he
pleases, or for no cause-without
being questioned, but the follow
ing fling from a letter received
Saturday, indicates the intoller
ance prevailing among a certain
class who oppose prohibition and
endeavor to vent their spleen on
anything that opposes their views.
1t reads:
"P. S. You have lost a lot of
subscribers round here by filling
up the paper with prohibition
foolishness."
We do not give the name, be-
cause there is no desire to make a
personal matter of it. There were
two names marked off. By the
same mail we received nine new
subscribers. We r keeping our
books and know pretty we'll
whether we are losing "a lot of
subscribers" or not. It. is not in
tended to make it appear that
those composing the s%ubjoined list
endorse the policy of the WATCH
MAN, or the views of the editor,
for there are some who do not,
but they are men who concede the
rights of others and are tolerant
of opinions contrary to their own,
they respect others and are en-
titled to respect. Every broad
minded and intelligent man reads
both sides of all public questions,
and it is the narrow-minded, the
prejudiced, the intollerant, self
assertive, i]gnoramus who is con-
tinually making an ass of himself
and proving by his daily conduct
that he lacks much in being the
half of what he presumes to be.
The following list is composed of
new subscribers and those who
have paid something on their sub
scriptions since our last report.
Let the gentlemen who have
"stopped" put their pames up be-
side this list and are themselves
as they are. The list is:
