PASSING OF THE
DOLLAR WEEKLY

Editorial in Cleveland Plain
Dealer)
The dollar weekly will soon be an
institution of the past. One after
another those rural publications
are being forced to raise their sub
scription rates in order to meet
their increasing costs. The stu
pendous height which print paper
has reached is the dominating ele-
ment in the problem, but is only
one of many ways in which the
newspaper publisher finds the cost
of his product increased beyond
all estimates.
1t is claimed that more than $50
American weeklies have been fore
ed to suspend publication on ac-
count of these increasing costs.
For the greater number, however,
the other alternative will be the
one adopted-that is, raising the
subscription price above the time
honored fat dollar per year.
The dollar was a convenient unit
for dealings between publisher and
patron and, when for that sum one
was able to secure so issues of an
alert publication, it was a dollar
profitably spent. Some of the most
constructive journalistic work Of
the past century was accomplished
through the columns of the dollar
weekly. Some of the patron SAINTS
of the newspaper profession accom-
plshed their most lasting results
by means of it, and the annals of
newspaperdom would lose much of
their interest and charm had the
dollar weekly not thrived so long.
But no product helps itself in
the long run by operating at a loss.

In every crowd there is always
some one who is red headed, lazy,
who has been Tilted, who owes
money, who has been divorced, OF
who has peculiar religious views,
or who has warts. This is so true
that a man can't abuse any vice
without hurting some one. If a
man should begin now and write
every day until the Fourth Of July
he could not exhaust the reasons
why he should at all times keep his
mouth shut.

If it costs more than dollar to
publish the modern weekly, the
quicker the situation is understood
on both sides the better. No one
can properly protest when the
price is increased and value is
given.
The dollar weekly has had an
honorable history and the country
owes it more than it knows. No
apology is needed if the price that
sufficed half a century ago is now
found inadequate.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There 10
only way to cure deafness, and that 10
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by inhamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have rumbling
sound imperfect hearing, and when IL is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the infiamm alton can be taken out
and this tube restored TO it's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out OF ten caused by Catarrh,

TELL PERSHING I'll

oG tUGUIi
The spirit which moved a sailor
Of the torpedoed American destroy
err Jacob Jones, to shout to other
sailors who we're struggling with
him in the sea, "Oh, boyl Where
do we go from heref" is paralelled
in instances among Kentucky
drafted men.
Ruby W. Franklin, school
teacher Of Madisonville, turned in
QUESTIONABLE of sixteen pages
with a general answer of nine
words, 81 want no exemption. Tell
Pershing III be there" he wrote
across the face of the document.
Dave Raley, a young farmer of
Hawesville, according to press re-
ports, was quite as expressive when
he said 1m ready for service and
rarin' to CO."
Henry Dehaven Norman, of
Hafdinsburg, commonwealth at
torney of Breckenridge county, in
dicated his attitude when he said
he "didn't want to be an officer"
Anxiety to enter the army led him
to Washington where he enlisted
the services of Senator Ollie James
to expedite his acceptance in order
that he might "get into the thick
est of the fight in France" at the
earliest moment Senator James
presented him to Adiutant General
Mccain to whom the Kentuckian
made his simple request. Although
well over the draft age, he passed
the examination incident to enlist
ment, promptly was assigned to
the Tenth Field Artillery and or,
dered to Camp Green, North Caro-
lima, for training.
These isolated cases, however,
perhaps are overshadoYed by the
patriotic fervor in two Kentucky
counties. In Larue the army ex-
emption board recently announced
that every man subject to the first
draft had been found physically fit
and that none had claimed exemp-
ton.
In Breathitt, the former home
Of feuds and bloodshed, there were
no men of draft age subject to the
first call, because they all had
volunteered, the exemption board
said.
Kentuckians and their brothers
from Indiana and Southern Illinois
to total of more than 10000, are
in training at Camp Zachary Tay-
lor, the National Army cantonment
on the edge of Louisville. Many of
them bear the stamp of out-of
doors men from the mountains and
it is common comment, as they
mingle with the crowds on the
streets of Louisville on their two
liberty days each week, that they
look fit for service in the Titanic
struggle just ahead of Uncle Sans
fighting men.

the meeting in their official capacity.
Delegates from all over the State will
meet 10 report on the work already
done and TO perfect plans for definite
work before the next session Of the
General Assembly. State wide inter
es, has been aroused and the Patrol
Committee idea has found favor in
every town in the State. The work
thus far has been directed principally
TO promoting interest in beneficial
Legislation along the lines indicated BY
the Il Believe" cards. At this general
meeting the delegates will determine
the future course Of the campaign and
definite steps will be taken to promote
and encourage Legislation TO attain the
objects for which the Patrol Commit
tee was organized
One Of the principal objects is to
secure the passage Of an Act TO estab
list an up-to-date highway department
with competent engineer. Such a
department is absolutely essential il
the State is TO have good roads and it
is only by having such department
that Vermont can get Federal aid and
share in the government appropriation
for highways. The Committee will
later have an Act drafted for the full
consideration Of every voter.
An Act to provide for business
like system Of disbursing the State
money and an audit of all State
accounts by experts will be supported.
Committees will be appointed TO con-
slider any legislation needed to make
our schools better ard to promote and
favor reforms in our tax laws. The
Patrol Committee will not confine its
to proposed laws drafted and
presented by it but will endeavor to
promote State wide interest in and
give its support to any bills introduced
which seem best adapted to accomplish
