If paid in advance SI.OO. Sample copies free. All communications should be ad dressed to REPUBLICAN NEWS ITEM, Laporte Pa., Volume Number Three. With this issue the NEWS ITEM enters upon its third volume.—We are two years old to-day, and we think we are a lusty child. It is with pleasure that we look back on the past two years and view the rocks over which we scrambled, we are thankful that we are living. Some of these two years journey was along pleas ant paths, and some lay along ugly roads, and during these years we have labored hard to make the paper what it is to-day, one of the best local newspapers in this part of the State. During the two years we have lived we have done what we could for Laporte and the county. In trying to do so we may have said things that seemed to others to be against their ideas; but you know"to err is human; to forgive is divine." So we forgive those who err and we hope to be forgiven for our errors. The circulation has grown, the jobbing patronage has increased, and the plant has been greatly improved from time to time. This has all been accomplished by untiring and constant perseverance and grit We have met many reverses, but undaunted we came out right side up, and now have the business on a fair road to prospeiity. Our many patrons and friends have stood by us in all our trials, and their words of encouragement have been like pearls. To some we are indebted for many kindnesses that will be hard to re pay- The NEWS ITEM as in the past, will continue to give the local news and give to its readers clean pages—a paper that can be read by all members of the family without offence to anyone. We start with volume three tinder pro pitious circumstances, considering the depressed times with the country involved in war and we hope to improve the paper during the next year, as business advances and delinquent subscribers do their duty— pay the printer. We thank our friends for the generous patronage extended to us during our ex istance and hope to merit a continuance of the same in the future. TO 01'R SUBSCRIBERS. The subscriptions of a large number of persons who are at present receiving the NEWS ITEM have been due for a long time dating from the first issue, and we would request of such persons an early remit tance. as we are in need of ready money to meet our obligations. The individual subscriber is apt to forget that the pub lisher of a newspaper is at a constant cash expense for labor, material, etc. in order lo furnish a readable paper, and that in sending the paper to delinquent subscribers he is actually advancing to him each week a certain amount of cnsli, that he may enjoy the pleasure of a news paper. In view of these facts, we ask each subscriber who is in arrears to remit as soon as possible. OUR ADVERTISERS. It is with satisfaction and pride that we call attention to our advertising columns this week. Our advertisers include the most careful and conservative business men in the county—men who earnestly consider the character of the newspaper through which they appeal for patronage. We have a large number of the represen tative merchants advertising with us at present and the steady and healthy in crease of their patronage and support is a just cause for hearty congratulation. There is no feature of a first class country newspaper that is so indicative of its character as the columns devoted to ad vertisements. Old and conservative advertisers make the presentation of their wares to the public and intelligent study. In selecting the medium of advertising they investigate the character of both the paper and its readers and apportion their patronage according to the result of such investigation. Hence it is that the NEWS ITEM is now happy in the knowledge that it has more than half the amount of ad vertising given to some other papers whose years of existance are more num erous than our weeks, and which were founded before many of the News I Ten readers were born. It is noticeable that there are a few professional patriots who have not yet left to mingle with the jam at the recruit ing office, and two months ago they could not be made to keep still a minute. !
