The price OF print paper and other
materials entering into the publication
OF newspapers and periodicals has
gone so high that It is cutting deeply
into the profits OF all publications and
threatens many with absolute ruin.
The situation in West Virginia is so
serious that many owners of weekly
papers declare they Will be forced to-
suspend unless they can find some
means Of relief or some way of in
creasing their revenues. The matter
was discussed q, a meeting held at
Fairmont Thursday, at which the plan
OF collective buying was decided Upou
Publishers may secure better prices in
this way, but as the quotations of the
paper manufacturers are still soaring
It is more than likely that all news
papers will eventually be forced 10 the
step which they are reluctant to take

ers.
Many country weeHlics have already
advanced their subscription rates. au
many others will 90 so on January !.

figure have been advanced to two doll

evening papers OF Pittsburgh are now
two cents, and unless the prices Oh

the not distant future the one-cont

The suspicion exists among publish
ers that the big advances are not just-
ed by trade conditions, but have been
arbitrarily made by combinations of
paper manufacturers. The investea-
ton which is being made by The FoG-
eral Trade Commission is expected to-
throw some light on that phase of the
situation. II It shows that there bias

Where II Cnme From

One has only to preserve the list OF
he contributors to the campaign fund
Of the Republican state committee to
have a complete roster OF those who
are at the trough OF course, Mr.
Highlands $4,000 was simply a pay
nent for the honor that had been con-
lerred upon him by the Republicans
when he was elected as national COM
mitteeman, and Mr.. Elkns' $4,000 was
a mere expression Of regularity. The
Denuriousness of Col Mann showed
Just how much he was i'm sympathy
with the controlling heads of the party
in the state, while the $500 given by
former Senator N. b. Scott is quite in
contrast to the large sums he formerly
gave when he was a candidate-when
HE wanted something.
Nothing so well pictures the condi-
ton of the part in the state as this list
Of contributions. Those who gave,
those who did not and the sums do
rated is a criterion to the temperature
Of the donors. except of course, those
who live i'm Charleston and are on the
payroll of the state. and who. instinc-
lively coughed up that their meal tick
