The Woodbine Twiner last
week discouraged the practice
of publishing cards of thanks,
resolutions of coincidence and
obituary poetry, and stated
that the Twiner would make a
charge for these at the regular
rates. We supposed every
paper in southwestern Iowa
had been charging for such
things for years. It has been
the answering policy of the
Reporter for over. ten years to
charge the regular rates. II
does not come under the class
of local news or editorial mat
ter, hence the publisher is fool
ish to fill his columns with it
gratis. Dunlap Reporter.
We heartily agree with the
article printed above, and we
were also Of the opinion that all
papers made a charge for these
notices. Otherwise the columns
would be filled with notices,
that could be otherwise used.
