Subscription Campaign
To Run to Close of Fair

FIRST: We do not care for subscriptions out.
side the state They add nothing to the value Of
our advertising space and because each paper must
be wrapped in single wrapper, they necessitate ex-
ira labor aid labor costs money. Papers sent out
of the state usually sent by some friend OF rea
tive to some friend or relative. To keep tab on the
party to whom we must look for renewal necesstates
extra bookkeeping Therefore after the close Of this
campaign the price Of this paper, when sent out of
the state will be $l.75per year. and each subscription
out Of the state will be dropped promptly at the ez
piration Of this time, without notice.
SECOND: 1t costs more to run a paper off the
railroad than on it. Several publishers in this county
are charging $150 for their paper, and are on the rail
road Our circulation has now reached point
where paper costs money and by reason of irreeu-
1arity and inconvenience Of getting stuff out from
the railroad, we shall be compelled to resort to par.
GELS post for shipment Of materials. This means ex-
ira expense, and it is the purpose Of the present
MANAGER to push on the good work of building up
this paper until it meets all the demands which
could reasonably be made on an ordinary country
weekly, situated as it is. This means more expend.
itures. We have decided, therefore to make our
subscribers the following liberal proposition:
Until the close of our fair, which will probably
take place in the late summer, we will continue at
the rate Of $l00 per year. In order to give all fair
show to adjust themselves to new conditions, we
will accept new subscriptions renewals at the rate
of three for $780, You may thus subscribe for three
friends for one year for $780, or you may pay up
y your own subscription three years for $500

the defense today remained to be
heard by the jury in the trial here
of Mrs. Florence Conklin, Carman,
accused of the murder of Mrs.
Louise Bailey on June 80 last.
Mrs. Carman's confidence in the
outcome may be attributed to the
mass of evidence, mostly from mem
hers of her immediate family to dis
prove the story told by Celia Cole
man, the negro maid in the Carman
home, that implicated her mistress
with the murder

a negro man who testified that after
the SHOT was fired he saw man run
across he Carman lawn, jump a
fence ard disappear.

ter, Elizabeth. was called to the
witness stand Yesterday when her

completed In a childish II eble she
gave her version of what had hap
pencI the night of TIE murder. At
ter dinner, she said, she had gone
ut and played on the lawn.
Mother went upstairs," she con-
tinued. "My aunt and my grand
mother were on the porch. Later |

fendant burst into tears. She bur-
led her face in her handkerchief and
her shoulders shook with sobs.
