The name of Mr.. ]. M. Dufilho ap-
pears among our candidates for Town
Marshal. He is well qualified for the
position, and if elected will make an
efficient officer. He has had good
deal of experience in official matters,
being for long time deputy clerk of
the court, and on several occasions has
also acted as assistant to our Town
Marshal with efficiency and satisfac-
ton. So, if elected, the duties of the
Office will not be new to him. He has
many friends and will doubtless prove
to be popular candidate.

To the Patrons of The Chronicle.

10 the Patrons OF The Chronicle.
With our issue of April 10 we begin
printing the Colfax Chronicle as A.
page all home print newspaper instead
of pages with four pages of ready
print, as the paper has been run for
many years past. We make this change
simply as matter of business.
In these days of high prices for the
necessities of life, as well as the in
creased cost of paper and printing ma
terial, the margin of profit on an g.
page paper at 90 per year is entirely
too small to enable us to conduct sue
cessful business. Hence, it was a
question of deciding between raising
the subscription price of the Chronicle
from 81 year to $3.50, or reducing the
cost of the paper by cutting out the
ready print feature and issuing 4-page
ali home print paper instead of eight
ps ges, half of which was printed away
from home. We decided our SUBJ
seribers would stand the reduction in
the size of the papers, rather than an
Increase of SOC year in the subscrip-
ton price, hence the change is made
this week to 4-page all home print
paper.
