For several years we have teer
7ainfy trying to maintain cur pre-.
war prices on subscription, and in
spite Of repeated increases in the
price of paper and other things en-.
tering into the cost Of publishing, our
aurices have remained the same. Ev-
c cry paper in the county with the ex-
eption Of the two Scotland papers
raised their subscription rates to
So. 90 some time ago. but In hope
that prices had reached the top we
have retained the old prices. Post.
age has more than doubled, express
has taken 25 per cent Jump. maxi
ing it double the pre.war rates, and
last week we were notified Of a fifty
per cent raise on our patents Under
these conditions we find it bsolutely
impossible to continue at the former
rates. and on January /. 1920, the
subscription to the Citizen. Republic
can will be raised to $500 a wear.
Those now in arrears who settle be.
fore January LIST, can do go at the old
rates and any subscrier may extend
his subscription for one year at the
same rate. Trusting that our read
ers will realize the justice of this
change and will take advantage of
this offer before January 1st. we are.
Yours truly.

castoff of humanity. They prey upon
the people at will and there seems to

the officials of both of the two great

With 55 feet opened without dis.
closing walls, the Divide Extension
is scheduled for almost any flight
of the imagination. The physical
condition is superior to anything
that was ever dreamed of on the
Divide and sets a pace that sur
passed the widest fancy. The of
ficial statement of the company
speaks for itself in the following
report issued this morning
THE crosscut looks bigger and
better with every shot. Today's
assays show that a two foot face
on the west crosscut assays $123
while an additional two feet from
the same place assays $232. The
north drift in the west crosscut
assays $102 while the north drift
from the east crOsscut runs $16S
The highgrade streak in the same
place six inches wide assays $S19
The present width of the vein is
55 feet with no walls yet and these
two drifts are that distance apart. "
