t you ever sveo tn . town Wns0s there ~ss no local newspaper yeu have found that the people ot that town were constantly wishing for the e. tsbi,shnent ef one. indeed thses is nc town worth the nams that is without ,,Y nswspapsr. ~ soms newspaper men will not start one on their own rs- spons,oiIity the people themselves will see that one ,s obtained serns way That ,s . tact which no enc can deny and the rsason is that . newspaper is one of thosA communal institutions which arc almost absolutely necessary in these days ot education and its ee0- ssqusnt sharpening Of the desire to isarn what is going on around us- Pso- pie who do not rseegn,ss such . fact nave not looked at the matter from .hs right stand point.
 vantage to any place and to all the people. Whsthsr sems et thess people support . papsr in their te~n or net they aiways read it even whsn they are tempted by desire te cave their n,ensy to read the paper bought by others.
 They admit the value ef . paper by reading it even though they do not con. sidsr tt worth paying for. This is not said .t all for the purpess Of railing against these people whs have net the means te subseribs for papsrs but % an arsumsnt to show that people ef all kinds recognize the value Of the teeal publication.
 Particularly in . town in Alasks, such as Nome is, the newspaper is one oS the most worthy institutions. Just let people imagine how thinss would be # there were no newspapers hsrs. The people ef Nome would never con. sent to spend . whole winter without hearing from day to day the deinss es the world outside. Without . nsws. paper they would bs certain to band together to establish one.
 Aside from all this, . community without . paper would bs like an aetss without . prsss agent. No matter he~ promising its rssevress might bs they would lie idle for lack ef people ts develop them. It might bs nsws te the people hsrs that . mail never esUsss that does not bring sxehansss from other parts of the territory and from outside which contain eIippinss fro the Nugget, for instance, dealing with ths progress ef Nome and its prospects Ns~spapsrs everywhere are sisd te obtain some nsws to intsrsst their Wi0' ino readers and semstimss twenty nsvsspapsrs, published in as many dit fsrsnt plaess and read by theusands contain the same story ~ . striks es the prospects ef enc. All this hslps ts develop the country in which the psPs' is pubiished and puts n,ersy into tht pockets ef the local people, thess whs do not support the paper as well a' those who do. Thoss who have beeN q Iona time in business readily ssl this.
