ABOUT NEWSFAPJSRS
Raleigh NewsObserver. ' ' ;
An exchanee states that the stockholders
of the Mcssengerm r Wilmington have guar
anteed to editor Bonitz.aa advertising pa
tronage of $20,000. The advertisements of
the Kaleigh XTem from" 11' sources used to
be about $4,000, of, .which ; about .$2,500
waa from North Carolina; the ''advertising
patronage of the Observer used to be
about $3,000. of Which about $2,000
was from . North Carolina, The Wti"
minlon Star, we understand, charges
very high rates, and its ad vertieine patron
age inr that" commefchrt"' metroUOhs is. we
suppose, .about,, $r.Q00v, Wa have heard
that the Wilmington stockholders prom
ised $6,000 advertising patronage instead
of $30,000, as our exchange has it... We.es th
in ale that the 'number of North Carolina
people who subscribe- to daily papers tak
ing dispatches, is about. 4t500k. The. , ex- .
pD8es of such, a paper as the Charleston
(Jourier are aboat 175.000 a year. - The ex
penses of such a paper as the Wilmington
Star, we suppose, are above $20,000. We
would use to see great big papers in every
town in North Carolina, but it takes an ad
vertising patronage of $30,000 or $40,000,
such as only a large commercial city can
afford, and not-less thaB5,O0O-daily sub
scribers to keep afloat such a paper as the
Charleston Courier. The Charleston Cou
rier, with its 6,000 daily subscribers, has
never been able to furnish" its paper for less
than ten dollars a year, although it issues a
Sunday edition separate from its daily,
which is relatively very profitable. '-
.Newspapers are maintained by wage-
earners, not by capitalists;- by the many.
not the few. Charleston, savannah, At
lanta. Augusta,. Macon and other places
where factories and workshops distribute
wages among-the people whose weekly
earnings enable them to support their fami
lies and then indulge in a newspaper are able
to maintain only o morning paper -Rich
mocd has the Dispatch; and the Whig, on
which a great deal of money has been lost,
last year was revived aaa morning paper,
but we do not know Low successful it has
been under ita new management -
Little boats cannot venture out into the
big eeas "without danger of buing swamped,
and therefow oaght-to keepireaT the shore.
We suppose that the papers taking the dis
patches in North Carolina, all combined,
did not last year earn tnree-per cent : on the
capital invested.
There are several inaccuracies in the
foregoing" article, but as a whole it is well
worth reading, so we give it in full.

spection by the Medlsal Fraternity, We call at
tention to the following article.
DANGER IN ICE In an article on "The Nam
ber of Bacteria in Ice" in the American Journal
of Pharmacy for December, 1886, the author ooa
cludes that rthe common 'raw' ice, till lately al
most exclusively used, on account of the large
number of bacteria, capable of development,
which it contains, Bbonldnot be taken with food,
in drinks, or tor medicinal purposes. It should
never be used in the treatment f wounds. In
these connections, artificial ice, made from dis
tilled water, Shenld be employed. The use of
Taw ice in contact with food,- which Is after
wards to be cooked is p8rmisslb2erbat artificial
ice is to be preferred. Raw ice may be freely
used where it does net come into direct contact
with food."
We have both natural and manufactured Ice,
and can supply which ever is preferred - We
have unequaled facilities for shipping lea by the
barrel ana in car ioaa lots. .
Prices given upon application. We solicit your
