i V J To Subscribers and Advertisers. Every logitlhi-tcly ctttuiuctod news inpur lmstVo tmtrcos of rovonno upon which It musY, depend for support, towit, from subscriptions and from ad vertising. Tho hist Is u natural sequence )t tho first i for If n paper has n lur;a llslof Mibscrlbcrs, advertisers will seek Its columns without being -olliillcd. It is largely for this seusoit that tho principal efforts of Tim Cocktv I'ai'kh hro directed o Increasing tho number sf lis subscribers. Our list Is I randy Jro f lunn ulnetv-nine out of ft Into. tfred county papers can show, lAll It Is ( win tar snort ot what we want It M w. ilunce our frnjiunt appeal ty (Mii'.u--i-erlhcrs to assist us in eccuiihg ni!v Vuimes. Yet lot Jt bo distinctly utidttr Unit Tub CotmTY Vavsm nks nothing tin tho scoro of elinrity. It does not be long to tho "savo tuck CiimIiij, or I sink" at) lo of journalism. It does not risk contributions as nil "urRttii," but stands simply on n business foundation of merit both as a news pnper and an Advertising tiudhinu 11 only clalnu tho minis privileges tiny other losltimatu business mlshtlwk -a fair field and no favors. Whenever, its patronago fall off It wdl look Within for tho causes thorefoiS believing that real merit will ouini:ind success and needs no bolster ing up to keep It alive. Wo know that wo are now furnishing bur patrons a paper worth much more than tho money it costs them. Consid ering tho amount of reading matter il contains, it Is by far tho cheapest coun ty papor in tho State. From tho sainu luimber of subscribers wo could make much moro on tho Sentinel at 1.50 a your than wo can on Tin: Countv 1'a I'KU at Two Dollars a year. While wo have addeil only Fifty cents u year to tho old princ, tho difference in tho cost Ut us hm been much more thhlt that. Hut wo now have ft papor so fall mid vompletw In ovory department that It (Ills uvery requirement of n family pa yer, and we can appeal, with a clear consclcHco, to evory citizen of the county to becomes u subscriber. We privo more :han valuo received, and ask for subscribers on the hlinplo ground of tho merit of tho paper. Now, a word to advertisers. Tim Colhtv Pai'eii not only has tho largt.il Jlst of subscribers of any papor in this wt of tho Statc.but It is nl.o has th7cJ list. Wbeutho paper ramo into our hands it had not less than two hundred Mibcerlbera who took thu papor muruly a,. oeomisoof poi-Nornd friendship for its Tormor proprietor Somu of them rould not ovon read All of those have - ,7. , , long since dropped out of our list and thoir places havo been filled by those Who read tho paper thoroughly and carefully every week. Our list Is also much larger than It then was, and wo feel justified in assuring advertisers that Tiifc Coins- l'Ai'-iS is not only tho lttostread buftho nusf read paper in tho county. tU print is clear and legible, on a good quality of papor and Its col umns aro Hot filled with it heterogeneous' mass of foreign'mcdli.'al'adverilscmeiits, many of which aro unlit to place before tho family circle. It has received no warning on this account from tho socle iy for tho suprcssion of vice us runio of its contemporaries have. Uusitio.s men who stop to think will readily sou that a hundred lines of pointed, pithy, business nnnouneuinents, presented in an attractive way, oven at ten cents si lino, would bo worth a thous and though thoy cost but a cent each in a hodga podgo conglomeration requir ing im hour's soaroh to ?.nd any ono of thorn, and calculated to dUgiift thu reader bofora ho had road half tho pa per. Wo shall therefore adhero to tho plan of giving a good article at a fair price. Another point, which advertisers vliould consider, is that tho valuo of Tin: CouNfV I'Ai'KU.os an advertising me dium .is constantly Increasing, fnr thu ruiuou that its subscription list is stead ily growing. Wo aro not standing still or retrograding, but aro golnj; fonvaid. Wo aro therefore in a situation to so licit both subscriptions and advertise ments on the ground of merit. Wo fur nish our subscribers with thu bust mid largest county paper in tho Stato con taining moro reading matter and uf a bottor quality and wo offer to nil. vortlsors u circulation for their an- iiouncemcnts tho Plzo of which can be guaranteed them'by few county paper in tho United States. Our rates for advertising nro very low, when Mir' circulation is considered, mid will bo made known on applica tion. Let us know just what you want mid we will promptly Inform you what the cost will be. Corning. Tho sick list lias been quite extensive for tho past three weeks.

First on program being report from churches, tho roll of churches was called and reported as follows: Mound, City congregation t'eported Vy David Wetzel. "1 havo been labor ing Tor them ono year; linniedliilu re sult. -II) additions, 23 by confession nnd obodlencu. A debt Of 400.00 Oil the church has been paid, l-'uturu pros pects very good. Slsterii have organ ized and ale at Work in Sewing Society. My .services havo been engaged by them for another year," Oregon concregatlon reported by W. A. (Jardner. Hro. Maupln has been laboring with us n year. Much has been dono not apparent to tho casual observer. Thursday ule-lit ami Lordsday meetings all better attended and more liiteVest taken In church work. 1-ivo additions, ono bj faith and (lueuienco. Vo have a heavy church debt that wo are determined to provide ior (luring me next mouth." Tarkio Valley church reported by W. T. Maupln. "This congregation Is composed of Hurt- Oak, l'orest City and Chambers Mihool house congre gations, which havo been consolidated. I labored there ono month: succeeded In payfng off tho debt on tho chinch at l orestCitywhieh will now bo finished up. Thoy now expect to have regular pleaching divided between the above points." King Crovo congregation, reported byL. D.Cook. Tnu church is an infant ono yoar eld; not much could bo expected of Jt. Thoy number about forty; havo preaching monthly 5 aro growing m .strength and getting ready for work. No discipline been necessary. They aro at peace nnd work in har mony. Lo.-tonu of tho most useful mmnl.crfl by death. Hro. Abrani Mooru. They propose coiicolidutlng with the brethren at Miiltland." APTntlNOOX B1USIOX. Devotional exercises conducted by David Wetzel. Tho question "How shall wo prose cute our county work?" was then dis cussed. Opened by W. T. Maupin.wlio said: "I like the plan alieady adopted, bent., a missionary society of which every member of this church may bo an annual member by paying 0110 dollar or .1 life member by paying twenty dol lars, and quarterly collections taken up by all the congregations. Thu plan is good, but wo must havo a "financial man" who will jmsh it and we can nev er .succeed until wo get such a man. I do not know who it will bo, but Cod has never laid upon us a lieces-ity that cannot bo supplied; wo can llnd a man. I do not believe wo .should em ploy a county evangelist. Wo should select ono or tw points and build them up:get a good man and place him there for v, month or moro. Wo need more of tho missionary spirit ; every brother and histcr should feel that every soul in the other side of tho county Is worth ns mueh In tho eyes of (Jod as tho ouu noxt door. Kvcry Drencher under tho pay and direction of his congregation should establish a mission point in nonio desti tute place. If tho board employs a man ho should be bound to do as the board directs; ho should belong to tho board ; a failure In this has been one ot tho mistakes of tho past " W. A. Ourdner endorsed tho fore going; believed thoto was great necessi ty for care und promptness in raising quarterly collodions. Ono brother within reach of him had been notified twio.) to taku up tho collection but had forgotten failed." Jeremiah Kolley said: "Isripposol oannot taku part in tho dlsuexsion until I bceoino 11 member of the society. Put down my naino and hero is I bo dollar. You aye right-; this matter hould have ho puional attention of some one. Let every congregation appoint a uiombcr, officer or not, who will make it his or her special work to solicit members and iittond to thu quar terly collections." W. D. Callaway: "Yes, Iho. deacons of each congregation nhotild bo bust ness moirand 0110 of them attend to tho money Interest of tho C. M. Society."' DavId.Wetzel : "I havo 110 speech to make ; my speech, has been mado. In all this work wo neod tooxerolso a good deal of sanctified common sousu. To morrow begins a now year; lot us this afternoon placo ourselves in shape to do a grand work next year. Wo must not qulbblo about plans, but go to work. Yes, I plead L'ullty to forsrottiiicr tho collection. I thiol: the urcaohnr .slionM bu relieved from the responsibility of tho work. Lot wiiuo Member of tho congregation, officer or nut, look after this business. I am a missionary man from tho crown of my head to tho sole of my feet. I believe IhutOod is 110 respecter of persons; all houls aro precious to him. Wo ought to bo pro eminently n missionary people" L. D. Cook ; "I don't know so much anout mat '.sanctified' common sense," but I do know there is a good deal of uiisaiietlfied do nothingness. Our ox periunco h a good text for this work; by this I leuru that eo-op'oratlon Is tho j;ionte.n lack. Let your board appoint a man In each congregation (0 attend to th's work. If they won't work, ill-, miss them nud get another, Fwlteh them up; then they will work Letter, Ilrother Wo'zel Imi been switched up; ho won't forget so much hereafter. Yes, wo can get a niall-n ropiosuntutlvo man glvo 1110 Ihu (iloney nnd I will find him. This working up one point at 11 tlmo Is admirable. I think wo need more sllek-todt-Ivc-nrss. Take hold nnd freeze to It. No iho of coin plaining; much has beon accomplished In tho past year ill Holt county, (let your point Milctted j then nil turn your attention to that point nnd drive the Devil oh." W. T. Maupln : "Ycj, that Is n good suggestion: get a fixnucial man In each congregation If you can (lud him. Hut Oui trouble is few members In tho county understand this work; some one who does understand It inibt go tooauh congregation and start the work. This could and should bu done by our pre ent evangelist." David Wetzel : "I suggest that thd various preachers of thu county divide this work between thuiu." After Mime further suggestions the plan of operations for tho coining year was all lctt lu tho hands of the county board. j Moved and carried, that otirconstltu tion bu amended th.it 1 1 us election of county board shall occur sonil-annitally Instead of annually. Adjourned until to-morvow morning at 10 o'clock. SATlJltIAV,.TAHL,AltV 1st, 1881. Devotional exercises conducted by W. A. Oardner. Minutes of previous session read and approved.

David Wetzel then proposed the fol lowing resolution : "Ites'ilved that Jthls convention is in hearty sympathy with tho temperance movement and that wc will not, Cod helping us, cast our votes for any man for any office of trust in the county, Stato or luuloii who Is not an avowed tuuipcrauco man." In Mippnrt of this resolution he said : "Wo have been accused of being iiuti toimmranco and I desire this resolution to stand out pronlnontly in our pro ccedlngs. The tlnio should speedily romo when n man's naino sliou'd bo stricken from thu church books or from tho saloon petitions." w. r. Maupln said: "ir any man says wo aro not tolripcruncc people, tell him the Hlblo says,"AU liars shall havo their part In the lake of fire that burn eth with lire and brimstone." Wo stand foremost In tlu Statu in the tern poranco cause. Thero aro more officers In tho Statu society relucted from tho Christian Church, than all tho other ciuurciies. However wrong wo may have beon oil other subjects we have always boon liirhfin this. I am sum' wo have a fow brethren who visit sal oons. it is a sliaine to cleut such men to office. Wu havo elected men In this county to responsible positions who will worK against teniperaneu when good temporaneo men wero running against them. If I over vote for a man who is not a temporaneo mail ho will'.havo to slip up on tho blind side of mo." D. Wetzel : "There nro four men In my congregation whoso names nro on saloon petitions." W. T.
