have aroused most Indignation
among their patrons, especially in
the northwest, by insisting on
inserting on the ready.print side
ads booming Canada lands, for which
they are said to receive abnormally
high rates. Recently. the state press
association officers met and issued a
cali to North Dakota publishers
asking them to cut out the ready
prints as soon as they could find it
possible to do SO, and it!ary Uf the
publishers have SO done. Although
the Record publishers do not use
patents, having discontinued them
some time ago, we recognize that

did away with the ready-prints we
talked with many of onr patrons as

almost without exception they said !:
What / want is county and state

patent inside The day has gone
by when there was an attempt at
, competition between the city and
the country newspaper. The latter
cannot afford to furnish space and
labor sufficient to give column after
column. and page after Dagc CT The
worlds news. The former cannot in
i the nature of things, give detailed
news of counties and communities
away from its home city. Therefore
it has come to pass that each has its
field, and most publishers stick to
that field exclusively. This is made
easy by the fact that the better lpos-
tai facilities are bringing quickly to
the subscriber not only his home
or county paper, but the big city
weekly or daily. Because of their
high prices for advertising, the
great city papers expect practically
no profit from their circulation, and
hence furnish their papers at very
low price lower than the country
publisher. with circumscribed field
and depending for incomeen .gt.ser-
Using, circulation and job work,

On the other hand, it is certain that
in the early days Of a country paper
before it has secured a good gen.
eral patronage--the ready-print is
almost necessity. There is scarce
ly country newspaper in the state
that did not use ready prints when it
started and forsome time thereafter.

All is not such plain sailing with
the democratic plan in congress to.
turn over many of the industries of
this country to foreign manufacture
ers and workmen. 1t had been re-
solved by the congressional majority
that no hearings would be granted
to the various interests for or
Eagainst the bill. But this announce
ment provoked such strong protest
by democratic members from the
wool. sugar, and food-producing
states that it has now been deter,
mined to hold hearings and let the.
people have something to say-ras to
their wishes, at least regarding the
overthrow of our present protective
system. That abIy-edited paper of

MIA Grit, sheet nominally indie
pendent, but with strong democratic
leanings, has this to say regarding
the action Of the industry -destroyers
at Washington:
The democratic majority in con-
gress is backing I'D little. Ac-
cording to its original program, the
majority intended 10 rush the tariff
bill through the House without any
public hearings whatever. Having
decided in caucus what the bill
should be. the democrats were to lay
it before the House and immediately
proceed to vote on it as whole il
possible; if not, then section by Sec
ton. The tariff bill was to be a
democratic measure.
But the democratic plan didn't
work out. There were democrats
in the south, in the east, in the.
north and in the west who objected
to provisions that had been forced
through the causus. They declared
that these provisions were injurious
TO their interests. The
democrats, alarmed at the extent of
opposition to their hill, finally decided
to grant hearings"
