SPECIAL NOTICE.
STAR MILLING co.

On an dafter May !, 1914, along
with many other papers in the state.
the subscription rate of the .Clinch
Valley News will be $1.5O per year.
This Increase in the rate is absolute
ly necessary if anything like a decent
or reasonable living Is to be made
by Its publication. Everybody knows
how the cost of living and of doing
business has increased. The expenses
oil running a paper now are double
what they were Il few years ago. Our
prices have not, at any time, increased
We believe our readers, most of whom
are reasonable, successful business
men, will approve this step. They
do not work for nothing, and do NOT,
therefore, believe that others should
do so. The truth is, for the past two
years the paper has been supported
by other departments of the office.
The paper has not supported itself.
The merchants and business men of
the town have seen fit to discontinue
advertising, which, heretofore, had
enabled the paper to be published ut
a small profit. But now, as our COL
umns will show, the town is doing
little to support the paper. We are
forced, therefore, to put the paper
on basis which will give at least
a reasonable return OH investment and
labor. The paper is worth $I.5O a
year-about 3 cents per week-if it
is worth anything. At any rate, the
price will be $1.50 after May l, SO
please make note of this and gov
ern yourselves accordingly.
All subscriptions, new or renewals,
will be accepted, of course, at the
old rate up to May 1. All subscrib-
ers paid up beyond May 1 will not be
charged the new rate until their SUBJ
scription expires. For instance, if you
are paid up to a date in 1915, or any
month after May 1, 1914, your new
rate will go into effect at the time
and date to which you are paid. On
and after the expiration of your pres
ent subscription you will be charged
s1.50 from that time.
All subscriptions, new and renew
ais, will be received for one year or
IS many years as you choose in ad-
vance, at the old rate. Well see now
who of our readers are reasonable
and fair, and who of them want 1t all
themselves, and the editors to have
nothing,

WARSH|PS SENT TO
MEXICAN WATERS
President Will Force Mexico to
Apologize for Insult or Take
the Consequences.

Washington, April 15.-With u ma
jority of the ships of the American
navy under orders today to proceed
Immediately to the Atlantic and Pa
citic coast of Mexico, the United States
government gave provisional Pres
ident Huerta final warning that unless
II salute were fired to the stars and
stripes within reasonable time to
atone "for repeated otfenses against
the rights and dignity of the United
States" serious eventualities would
result.
1t was learned tonight that Gem
cral Huerta, when apprised Of the
proposed demonstration of the Allan
tic fleet, said that the episode growing
out of the arrest of the American
blue jackets ut Tampico was fit sub
ject for arbitration ut the Hague and
that he would appoint committee to
investigate the incident.
President Wilson, in an emphatic
reply through Charge O'Shaughnes-
sy is understood to have told General
Huerta that the time for delay and
evasion had passed, and that the
American governmcntwould temporize
no longer. Administration officials
hold that insults to the flag and ques-
tions of national honor are not sub
jocts for arbitration.
Norfolk, Va, April 15.-Bound to
Mexico to force Huerta to salute the
stars and stripes, nine American war
ships steamed out of Hampton Roads
ut noon today. Tonight they are ga
miles below Cape Henry in dense
fog, and with II northeastern storm
approaching. The ships are the bat
tleships Arkansas, New Hampshire,
Vermont, New Jersey, tho dispatch
boat YenlSton, the collier Lebanon,
and the naval tugs, Patuvent, Sono-
ma, and Patapsnco. Every ono Of
them has full supply of ammunition
ana provisions enough to las three
months. The tugs are equipped with
three inch rapid firing guns and carry
IL number of rifles, pistols and small
arm ammunition.

Inspired by the Enemy.

Hon. r. Tate Irvine, Democratic
candidate for Congress, was here this
week in conference with leaders of
the party. He thinks the outlook for
a Democratic victory this fall is very
bright. Mr.. Irvine stated that the
reports, frequently printed in the pa
pers that he would control the Ninth
district post office patronage, was ev-
erything but the truth; that he will
have nothing in the world to do with
the sediment of the postoflice fights
in the Ninth district. A Washing
ton correspondent by name of Man
ming is the author of these reports,
being sent to the daily papers without
the knowledge or consent of the parties
concerned.

Our sympathies go out to the un-
fortunate "native daughter of Taze-
WE'LL" who sends 25c to pay her sub
scription to the Tazewell Republican,
and says she yill do well to have
bread to eat during Wilson'S admins
tration! The Clinch Valley News has
received an unusually large number
of subscriptions this month and some
of them from the same Tug River
coal field, and not one chirp or COM
plaint of hard times have been heard.
These complaints and howls invaria-
bly, come from Republicans. Strange
that "hard times" should be so re-
stricted.
