AN INCREASE IN
SUBSCRIPTION
Unusual Cost of Printpaper
Makes the Change
Necessary.
After having given the matter
due consideration, and finding no
relief in sight, The Montgomery
Monitor, along with practically
every weekly paper in Georgia,
will on Nov. 15th raise its sub
scription price to $1.50 per year.
Any man who has kept abreast
of the times understands that
newspaper has advanced in cost
from 300 to 500 per cent, in the
past year, making it impossible
to issue a paper at the price of a
dollar a year.
Therefore, from Nov. 15, and
until the situation is relieved, the
following subscription rates will
obtain: One year, $1.50 in ad
vance; six months, 75 cents in
advance; three months 40 cents
in advance.
In order to get the benefit of
the present price it is necessary
to renew at once; no subscriber
will be carried for a dollar a year
after Nov. 15th. If you appreci
ate the work of the county paper,
at least call in and pay what you
ow T e, and renew if possible. Show
your county pride by co-operating
with the county paper.—Oct. 12.
Mob Lynches Negro
For Hitting White Man.

thony Crawford, a negro was
taken from jail and lynched here
this afternoon. The negro had
been arrested after striking M.

Struck by Train,
Cairo Lad Dead.
Cairo, Ga., Oct. 21.—Little
Roscoe Barber, who was hit by
an A. C. L. freight train here
yesterday afternoon, died in a
local hospital today. The little
boy never regained consciousness
after being given ether yester
day afternoon and physicians say
there was evidently some inter
nal injury which caused death.
The funeral was held from the
home this afternoon at 3:30
o’clock. The Rev. J. A. Wynn,
pastor of the First Baptist
Church, officiating. Interment
was at the Cairo Cemetery.
Carlton Williams, who was seri
ously hurt in a runaway yester
day afternoon is resting easy at
the hospital but his recovery is
still doubtful. Attending physi
cians say that a nail penetrated
the brain of the little fellow,
which necessitated quite a serious
operation, the result of which is
still in doubt.
