Show Shall We Continue? As some of our subscribers are desirous that the union shall be continued, wo have this much to .say in regard to the proposition. The population of Washington County is about 5000 and that number num-ber ought to furnish at least 1000 subscribers, and the business men and merchants ought to furnish a respectable advertising patronage patron-age so that there will at least be enough to meet tho expenses of publication of tho paper. If Tho Union is discontinued, all tho countj , the city, and some other advertising will have to bo dona in soma other paper and the money expended for the same will go out of our county. Now tlieD, if we can receive the name3 of 5C0 persons who will pay their $2.00 in Cash, or other pay at Cash rates, upon receipt of the first copy of Volume Eleven, and a guarantee from the business men and merchants that we shall have a respectable advertising patronage, then we will consent to run The Union another year and add two columns to each page, making it a six column instead of a 4 column paper. Let the Postmasters, Bishops, and Leading men throughout the . county, consider these items and extend a helping hand, if . they deem it wisdom to have a periodical periodi-cal in the county to represent our resources, &c.t and forward names to this office as soon as possible, so wo will know what arrangements to make; but if you don't want any jwpcr! then we will dicmt in-ue in-ue The Union and go at something that will yield a larger income. Respectfully Jos. W. Carpenter. St. George, Utah. |
