We are pleased to report that prac
tically every subscriber of the Daily
Independent whom our collector has
been able to see this month has co
operated with the paper in the mat
ter of paying one month in advance,
which is strictly a government re
quirement.
We shall be unable to send the pa
per to those who refuse to pay in
advance. This ruling has not been
made by the editor of the Independ
ent, but by the government, because
of the great shortage of paper. They
require us to keep our circulation
down by fifteen per cent in order to
conserve paper, and the amount of
our monthly allotment of print paper
is based on our report of the number
of papers printed every day and
whether or not they are paid for in
advance. They order that no papers
be delivered to delinquent subscrib
ers. We have lost only four subsrib
ers so far, and trust that none others
will quit, as we shall endeavor to see
everyone by the 10th of the present
month. Those who cannot be seen
will receive mailed statements before
the 15th.
