Tri. Weekly Courier
Will Go To Cash
In Advance Basis
Watch Date on
I abel on Paper
Do Not Let Your
Subscription Expire

More than a year ago the circula-
ton of the Ottumwa Daily Courier
was put on a cash in advance basis.
It has been found to be very satisfac-
tory to both the subscribers and the
publisher. :.
For years 1t had been the general
custom of the country for publishers
to- send a paper till the subscriber
sent written order to the Office to
stop 1t. Some publishers would hard
ly stop a paper even when told to do
so by letter, but there are not many
of that kind left now.
About ninety per cent of the SUBJ
scription list of the Ottumwa Tri-
Weekly Courier is now paid in ad-
vance, and it is evident from many OF
the letters we receive from SUBJ
scribers, that they prefer to pay for
all their papers in that way and then
have the papers stop unless the sub
scriber sends in the money to pay for
It.
Almost everyone prefers the ad-
vance payment, then they are not
paying for any dead horse and they
do not have to worry for fear bill
will be run up on them.
Hundreds Of people prefer the Daily
Courier to any other daily, and one OF
the reasons they give is that 1t stops
when the time is out, then when want
it started again l send in the money
to pay for 1t, and I'm never owing any
thing for my paper"
The government postal department
has made ruling that a subscriber to
tri-weekly publication who Is more
!, civ he IN ro q NJ n.
titled to receive the said paper and
that the publisher must not send such
paper for q term longer than six
months without pay.
The publishers Of the Tri-Weekly
Courier have tried to live up to the
six months term allowed by the gov
eminent, but find that in spite of the
closest watching, there will be a few
names get past the six months limit.
This makes it unfair for both the sub
scriber- and publisher, and it has been
decided to put the circulation Of the
Tri-Weekly Courier on the same basis
of all the larger daily papers of the
state-that Is onra cash In advance
basis-this pleases the Subscriber be-
cause he is not being continuously
called upon to pay up back bills. He
pays Wneu ne StdTL6 Inc paper anu
then the publisher notifies him just
before his subscription expires, and II
he wants the paper continued, he
sends in another payment. But If the
subscriber does not want the paper
continued, he does not have to write
to the office to have it stopped because
it will be stopped anyway unless it is
paid for.
So we want our subscribers to con-
tinue taki-g the paper, because we
know they get a better paper than any
one else can give them for the money
better markets, better editorials,
better continued stories, better local
news. better baseball and sporting
news-and we ask that If your sub
scription is not paid in advance, please
send to the Courier, Ottumwa, Iowa,
an amount sufficient to pay your SUBJ
scription ahead Look at the date on
the label. on your paper, and it will tell
you when your subscription expires
Please attend to this at once.

A Dry ottumwa.

Waterloo Reporter: The city of Of
tumwa finds itself in a very embar-
RAISING position, from q financial stand
point. With strict economy the ex-
penditures OF the last two months
were cut down to $15,874.92. There is
in the treasury trifle less than $780,
600 to pay all the expense for ten
months, the balance of the fiscal year.
Rather a hard problem in arithmetic.
AS Ottumwa has been declared by the
court to be shy on it's saloon petition,
the revenue from that source will be
cut after July /. 1t is now up to the
"drys" to make good their repeating
statement that municipalities can be
run better financially without the sa-
loon, and the outcome will be watched
with interest in the state.
