TO OUR READERS.

In response to our statements of
account that have been sent to Record
readers, we are receiving many of the
finest kind of letters of appreciation.
It is almost impossible to acknowledge
all Of them individually, and yet, we
want those readers to know that their
words of encouragement are more
than thankfully received.
We have been fighting the battles
Of our own people for several years
during which time we have been dub
bed agents of "Big Bizz," enemies of
the farmers, subsidized press, and
what not. Farmers have been request
ed at league meetings to promise to
stop their paper. Every means at
the command Of the carpet -baggers,
backed by unlimited funds, have been
employed to break this and similar
newspapers.
State laws have been put across
that robbed us of about half Of our
legitimate business, such as all news
papers have had since statehood.
In face of this opposition we have
hewed to the line and have steadfastly
tried to warn our readers Of dangers
ahead. While in dollars and cents
our course has been loser, in salts
faction and in gaining the respect Of
those who have known the Record
man since birth, this policy has prov
en- an absolute winner.
Three-fourths of the letters received
in response to statements have
brought the strongest words Of COM
mendation. And this applies most
particularly to the farmer readers.
One farmer insisted on paying
double for his subscription for the
past year. He said it was worth it
to him. And another assures us that
the Record must be kept going and
that he stands ready to back it finan-
cially, if necessary.
With the whole-souled support we
are getting, the Record can survive
without financial assistance. But the
spirit Of our readers has done much
to double our determination to fight
the gratfers to the finish in this year
or some other.
So, to those who have backed us
50 willingly in the fight, we offer our
sincerest thanks. To those who HON.
ESTLY believe us wrong, we ardently
hope to prove our case.
In the future, as in the past, we
will neither ask nor give quarter in
the fight.
Respectfully,
The Editor.
