The longer we live and the more
observation we have the more con-
we are that a borne paper is
worth a dozen foreign
published in other
though they o furnished at fifty
cents a year and are large enough
to cover a double-bed of the old
style pattern.
We have this to say to the public i
We care not if you get a New York,
Atlanta or Louisville paper at ten
cents a year you cannot do without
North Carolina papers.
Wipe the more or less,
papers published in North Carolina
now, and let our people look to New
York and other cities for their read-
and yon will be poor indeed.
We verily believe that in five years
every interest would languish. We
verily believe that in five years the
pride State would become a
of the past, and historic memories
and the glories that cluster around
the name of North Carolina would
fade into nothingness and the
and ancestral faiths
become a byword and a reproach or
be cherished only by a faithful
souls who lived among their books
or recalled the crucial days when
brave hearts stood up for right and
all for altars and fireside.
Yon can not do without your true,
faithful, unfaltering, honest, wide-
awake North Carolina home paper.
You will lose all that buoys and en-
livens and stirs the heart as a
pet if you cease to sustain home pa
Do not wander off after false
gods and false lights. There is
scarcely a sound Democratic paper
in New York City. Look at the N.
Y. the falsest, most
of papers.
World and Star are better papers,
