The Newspaper Situation.

The past year has been one of un-
usual prosperity in all lines of bust
ness except the newspaper business.
When dry goods went soaring up In
price your merchants marked their
goods accordingly. When meat took
Jump, your meat markets followed
suit. When print paper and all ma
terial an editor uses doubled in price
! nine-tenths of the editors continued
! to do business at the same old price.
| There could be but one result Il.
one State alone last month forty
printing Offices were closed by the
sheriffs.
A live nwspaper makes live
town and community. An editor who
is working hard eighteen hours d
day and then unable to meet his bills
cannot issue a live paper. A COM
munity that is not willing to give its
newspaper liberal support is doing
itself an injury. Good churches, a
good school and a good paper will
build a prosperous city out of any
town. For these reasons We are pub
ushing below clippings from differ
ent sources showing the actual situa-
ton of the average newspaper and
something Of the crisis they are fac
ing:
The Poor Famine and High Prices.
Manufacturers Record.
The price of paper, which has ad-
ranced from 100 to 800 per cent
more over prices prevailing year
ago, seriously threaten the life Of
a large number of publications all
over the country and greatly lessons
the profits of others.
It is doubtful if any other large
industry in the United States has
had to face so serious a situation,
because when prices of raw mate
rials have advanced the manufactur
ers of the finished products have ad
vanced their prices and thus thrown
the burden on the ultimate consumer.
In the newspaper business this has
not been done The newspaper,
from the largest dailies to the small
est Weeklies, have been bearing the
burden which to many publications
will mean complete destruction and
to many Others the wiping out Of ali
profits.

try been as prompt to defend their
own interests as they have the inter
ests of others, they too, would be

".nt ne"sparerS Of the United
States Today face a situation unpar-

the effect OF the European war IN

to the newspapers to tell their read

in price is necessary. In other words
the press faces an educational CAM
palgn for its own Salvation.
when the average man purchases
a staple article today and finds the
price has increased from twenty-five
to fifty per cent, he already knows
or is told that the war has brought
about such a condition. The manu-
facturer of that article has, already
perhaps, advertised the fact that he
Is compelled to increase his prices.
No industry is more seriously affect
ed by the war than the newspapers
OF this country, and yet an increase
in advertising or circulation rate Is
immediately frowned upon. because
tie newspapers have failed to inform
the public to what great extent
they are affected by the war.
IF the newspapers will tell their
+, aders and advertisers that the
price of some inks has increased 400
per cent; that rags, the raw material
fer paper making, is also used fer
tie manufacture of high explosives
and has ascended in cost on a lsve)

bleach, so necessary for the manu-
facture of paper, can hardly be had
