pers cannot be sent to sntrserib-
‘ era more than one year on credit
will go into effect Aprrf 1st and
will be strictly obeyed by the
Rxjroneht, as this pajier does not
intend to get tangled up wiln Un-
de Sam. We have during the
past week sent a statement to ev-
ery subscriber of the paper be-
hind as much as one year, giving
the date and amount due, and for
the past several weeks we have
hi each issue called attention to
the ruling, hence there will be no
. excuse for anyone ietting us drop
his hsme from our list on April
1st. We have carried these sub-
scribers on credit, the debt is an
honest one, is bv. .a small amount
to any one of them, hence we feel
that we should collect practically
every dollar that is due. .We have
worked hard, spent money for
printers wages, paper, etc. tliat
has gone into the publication of
the Rxponent. and it is but right
that we receive payment We
- sincerely trust that Pill be
forced to drop but few names.
This is campaign year and im-
portant issue are to be settled,
