A EEMINDER.
It is a long time since we have said
anything about unpaid subscriptions,
Jut when our books show thousands
cf dollars outstanding that we ought
to have, and need constantly in our
business, it is pardonable if we use
these columns occasionally to remind
those who owe us, that a newspaper
tannot be published on wind. There
are some who owe for three year or
more, and who pay no attention to
statements sent by mail. To such,
notice is now given that their accounts
must be settled before January 1st.
if not paid by that time, they will be
charged $1.50 a year, and costs may
e made. All who owe for one, two
er three years are respectfully request
ed to call and settle, at ft.oo a year.
After an account is three years old it
is liable to lie charged at the rate of
$1.50 a year, as that is the price when
not paid in advance. We are com
pelled to give this notice because of
the large sums due us that are scat
tered all over the county, and as there
is certainly nothing unreasonable in
the request, we trust that it will meet
vith a cheerful response.
