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.
