HIGH AND VALUABLE SERVICE
North Carolina Papers Give Better
S.rvlce Than the Papers of Anv
Other State

North Carolina Papers Give Better
Srv1ce Than the Papers of Any
Salisbury Post.
The above fact indicates that the
newspapers of the State are trying.
at least, to reder high and valuable
service. Regardless of this, North
Cafollna papers have a comparative-
| ~ small circulation, which proves
tnat regardless Of their efforts to
get the best news service and print
the best possible papers, they have
smaller reward than the newspa-
pers OF other States. In other States
newspapers that have no teleeranhic
service at all are favored with Iarg-
er circulation, more ADVERTISING and
at larger rates.
1t is a we'll established fact that
North Carolina papers are giving a
better service for the return than the
papers of any other State. This is
speaking as rule. There are in this
State fifteen, or more now, small af-,
ternoon dailies that are members Of
The Associated Press, where three
years ago there was not one of this
class. Regardless of these facts these
same daily papers have smaller cir
culatlon, and less advertising patron
age than papers of other sections.
ana therefore less return and profit
), 1t is to be doubted very much if
there is a single daily paper in North
carolina making any money, at least
anything worth while Some are not
making dollar and some may be
losing, while as rule they are max
ing practically no profit. The rea
son Is not hard to find, it is WE'LL
known among that small circle of
men who know conditions, in and out
OF the State, and Who are familiar
with the newspaper game-it is SIM
ply That the papers have not the sup
port they deserve and which is as
sured papers Of other States. And
what is true of the daily papers is
also true Of the weeklies.
In North Carolina the newspaners
are handicapped and hindered rather
islatfon is often adverse and in no
case, viewed from a financial viewo
point, is it favorable.
There are a few things the news

and to place their business on a
strictly business basis and appeal to
the public for support strictly on
business basis. The result is be-
ginning to come: A change is COM
ing about, conditions are improving
rapidly and with another decade the
newspapers Of the State will likelyl
be as good as the best, and also, en-
Joylng a prosperity which they so
richly deserve. What is here Stated
applies to the whole State and to
every paper, not to a few or to this
one.

WOOL SHIPMENT IS
 MADE FROM KINGMAN

The first car of wool from the clip of the Hudspath Sheep company at Trout Creek was shipped from King man last week. The wool is being hauled to town on trucks. The com pany expects to ship two more cars, which will aggregate about 100000 pounds. At the present price of 44c per pound it will bring a gross return of $44,000,
 The shearers will complete the work on Hudspeth flock by the end of this week, and then will give their atten- tion to other flocks that are already here and ready for the removal of the feeces. Some will shear at Munds station on the Chloride branch and others expect to shear at Berry and Hualapai. The focks of many of the sheep men are now in the country. Among them are represented the Au- brey Investment company, Frank So- to, Miller Shep company and Albert Jones.
 All men interested in the stock business are feeling in the best of spirits this year on account of the high prices of wool.--Kingman Miner.
