MONROE, N. C, TUESDAY JANUARY 10 1908
One dollar a Year
Tke Subscribers and The Publisher
We have asked a great many of
our reader face to face what they
read first in the paper, what they
like best, or in what ar they
thought the paper might be im
proved. We tin J that most of them
are timid about expressing an opin
ion, for they fear they might hurt
our feelings. We don't carry our
feelings exposed; if we did we
woulln't ask questions that were
likely to get unpleasant answers.
There's nothing better than straight
forward frankness that is, a candid
answer when a candid question is
asked. When expressing opinions
of our own we try to be candid and
honest and let them go for what
they are worth. Our desire is to get
at the view point of our readers, not
that we should desire to make, if we
could, a milk-and-water sheet that
would suit even bxly, but to get on
a plane of mutual understanding
in order that in making up the paper
their tastes may be regarded instead
of ours, and the things most inter
esting and helpful to them be pub
lished. Any one who feels like mak
ing a suggestion, a kick, a commen
dation or what not, will be wel
comed. We are trying to make this
paper a better one every year, and
you are the judge.
The dates on the papers of a great
many of our subscribers read Jan. 1,
1905. That important day is now
just behind us. It will be a great
pleasure to us to run their dates up
a year just as soon as it is conven
ient And those whoso dates read
prior to that well, we are depend
ing upon them. Some folks say that
they don't like to see duns in their
papers. Well, just tfiink of it! The
mild intimations of the editor to the
effect that money is acceptable to
him compare them with the hostile
demonstrations made by most mer
chants. The latter use such expres
sions as these: "We must have our
money," "look out for an ollicer,"
"pay up and save costs," etc.
We are very proud of the fact that
we lose so few subscribers who once
swing in with us. But there is no
reason why every intelligent man in
the county should not take The Jour
nal, no matter what other local paper
he takes. It will doubly repay him
The paper tries to have a value all
its own. One of our old subscribers
who used to take the paper but quit
to take another local one, came in
the other day, to start in again, say
ing that he liked it so well that he
would take it and the other paper
both. If this perchance hits the eve
of a man who is taking some other
paper, we don't invite him to quit
the other, but do invite him cordi
ally to come in and "hitch up," as
Thos. W. Uwson says, with The
Journal.
The following new and old sub
scribers have extended their dates
with the closing of the year:

While on a visit to this his na
tive coujty la the fall of 1903,
Rev. G. W. Belk of Charlotte met
a colored man whose conversation
led him to write the following two
poems:

The petted young beauty in the
carriage looked with dismay at the
mud that lay between her ami the
sidewalk.
"I think it was Sir Walter Ral
eigh," she said, "that threw his
cloak upon the ground on a certain
memorable occasion in order that
his queen might not get her shoe
muddy."
''iou're my queen, all right,"
replied the young man in the case,
"but if Sir Walter Raleigh hud
been a clerk ou a salary of $15 a
week he would have done exactly
what I'm going to do."
Whereupon lie carried her to
the sidewalk but did it so nicely
that she forgave him. Chicago
