PRESIDENTIAL POINTERS

Inauguration day was fixed up
on the 4th of March because
that date seldom occurred on
sunday. But three times during
our history has the inauguration
gay fallen on Sunday. The first
was the second inaugural of
Monroe March 4, 1921; the Sec
ond was when Taylor was made
president March 4, 1s4s; the
tnird was the Inauguration of
Hayes on March 4, 1877.
This will happen three times
uurlng each century, or one year
@ al.er every seven leap years. Ex-

Local Legislation in the State
Legislature.

There is much dissatisfaction
among legislators themselves as
well as among other citizens OF
the State at the great amount OF
local legislation coming before
every legislature, legislation that
is Of little or no interest to any
one outside of the community al
fected. yet its consideration ne
eessitates improper or no eonsld-
Grafton of important measures
that directly concern the welfare
of the whole state.
Yet, while every thinking per-
son admits that this is an evil that
should be corrected. the remedy
seems hard to find, as every rep
resentatiye seems to feel compel
led to follow the example of
others and get what local legls-
lation he can for his constituents,
a policy that IS increasing IN
place Of diminishing this evil.
Probably it will be difficult
if not impossible task for the
legislature itself to apply a rem
edy. but why not the people
come to the rescue and do this I!
Amendment No. Il to the Cont
Istitution makes ample provision
for the securing Of local legisla-
ton by the citizens direetly.in-
terested. and who are familiar
with all attendant circumstances
concerning It without bringing it
up in legislature where all ey-
idence is hearsay. often contra
Iaietory, and usually expensive to
the parties urging the legislation
is well as 10 the state.
The adoption of.Amendment
No. Is at the next election will
make it easily possible to relieve
the legislature Of all purely To-
cal legislation at a great saw
ing of time. money and trouble
to all concerned and enable the
+ legislature to transact progress
i've legislation Of benefit to the
state.

For some time past The News
has been accepting subscriptions
at the rate Of $L00 per year, but
beginning with October Isl, the
regular rate Of $3.50 will prevail.
This is made necessary by the
increased cost of production.
Paper on which The News IS
printed is now costing more than
twice what it formerly did, and
the price is still going up and no
;one can predict what the end
will be. There is a scarcity OF
paper throughout the country
as a result OF the European war
stopping importation Of raw ma
terials. and it frequently happens
that paper cannot be had when
wanted at any price. This Of
flee recently placed an order for
two tons of paper at the cur
rent price, but instead Of getting
the paper we got a promise OF
one ton. The larger daily news
Ipapers, in order to meet the sit
uation, have found ii necessary
not only to raise their subscrip-
ton price but to cut down the

number Of pages also. Not only
paper, but ink, type, and in fact
everything used in the printing
business, has advanced in price
to the point where the very exist
Ience Of smaller newspapers with
limited circulation is threaten
ed. In order to meet this in
creased cost Of production it is
necessary to charge Sl.o0 per
year for the paper. However, in
order that all may have ample
opportunity to renew at the S1.00
rate the date for putting the
$l.5 rate into effect has been set
for October J. This is little
more than six weeks notice, and
certainly shows that we want to
be fair to all our subscribers.
On and after October ! no sub
scriptions will be received at less
than $40 per year, but until that
time subscribers will have the
privilege of paying in advance
as far as they wish at the $1.00
rate.
