ALLEN, 11 BIG 20., 31i Iliners. 1The Palladiall Statesmlan, 1 iO VMAN VILLE. MAR. 27, 19011 CHAT WITH SUBSORIBERS. This is tho last number o!f'THE SrATmA,. before April 1, the date ors whicls we are supposed to stop accent ing one dollar for payrnent for THE STATESISAN fer 1901 and charge $150, thse regular advertising price. We intended calling attention to this matter eariier i tise month but isa'ie been f00 busy, so have decided to give c ur suis- scribers who' have not paid their sub seription yet another 15 days' grace and will accept 81 up te Tuesdav April 16. Af ter tisat date the rate will posi- tively be $1 50 a year. We iwaut every- bodv ta understand this fact and nlot te blamo usl if they are cbs rged tise higiser prîce. [f anv subscriber is not in a position te pay just now and will informa us when ho ivîili pay we will gladly wait op, hlm wilthîut iucreasing tise price. But ail who eau pay should do so at once as îvo would rather accept a dollar now than charge $1 50 later et). As our subscribers can testify, wo seldom dua for subseriptions tlîrough these columus. We detest dunning for money evory week of thse vear. We do aur part in publishing the best tocal paper lu these couities and most o! our subseribers do their part by pying their subseriptions promptly. Under such conditions it is a decided pleasuro ta do business. Sometîmes we know dollars are scarce and it Is not cenvenient to square up for thse paper ani tise famiiy, do net wiis te do without it. We eu always meet sucis cases satisfactory to ail concerned if told o! tise circumstan ces, WVe have nover crowdecl an honest' man for.paynîcnt and nover iutend to. Fortunateb, our subscribers ara mostly prompt payers and we have net much reason te complain. Indeod, we doubt if any country newspaper publisher has a fluer P-ass of patrons tissu ours, and wo feel proud of thom and so, long as they do tiseir duty te us as în tise past wo always shah,. And whiie we hold our patrons in sucS iigh esteem, wo flatter ourself that we likewise eajoy the confidence and good-will e! our readers. This fact to us is very on- cauraging. Ourzeaders may not be aware that THE STATESMAN papeor costs us this year more than double tise price paid for it last year, owing chie! ly to tise advance lu tise price o! paper and the combine that effeet our business. On our large weekly circulation tisis beo comes a sorlous consideration on our montisly pay day. We realized tissfact very forcibly too wheu we had 10 plank down more than twice as mucis cash ou Jau. 3sit as we had been paying each mentis end bof ore. Iu auy case it takes a large amount of money 10 mun a big uewspaper establishsment and as we do a straight cash business ail tise year round and year lu and year out, we do, not always find ilteao easy to finance tise business. But wheu our subseribers and patrons pay promptly il is a great assistance and we do nlot thonu require to lie awake nigists scheraing how to meet our paper, ink and type bills. Now this is quite a 'Little chat about our business and we shall now expeet to See tise "slow"'dollars come rollîng in at a lively rate before tise middle of April, Good day!
