The Los Angeles Newsboys' quartet will appear nt the Columbia theater this evening as an added attraction, according to Manager Ashton. from the Post list incorrect addresses. careful checking has resulted in adding to The Herald circulation several hundred new Herald readers, making the total Herald circulation MORE THAN THREE THOUSAND! To present Herald subscribers the management of this newspaper gave assurance of a larger and better Herald. Starting with this week the Tuesday issue, hitherto a four-pag-e paper, will be increased to eight pages. Soon we will change the Thursday issue from four to eight pages. The Sunday issue, too, will be enlarged. There will be no change in The Herald editorial policy, nor in the subscription price of the paper. To former Post subscribers, who now are welcomed into The Herald family of readers we set forth the policy of this newspaper: The Herald is absolutely independent in politics, gives a fair and impartial report of religious news, and makes no effort to persuade a person to or from any religious belief. It is The Herald's opinion that a man's religion and politics are his own, that it is none of an editor's business as to which church his readers attend, or which ticket they vote. Former subscribers to The Provo Post are assured this : All Republican news will be fairly printed; all Republican meetings honestly reported, and all Republican speakers exactly quoted. That, it may be added, is just what this newspaper promises to its Democratic readers. To Post subscribers we explain that this newspaper is issued daily, excepting Saturday, evening, during the week, and early Sunday morning. The Sunday Herald contains four, pages of colored comics, which all Herald children eagerly look for. The evening paper is delivered between the hours of 4 and 6. For rural distribution in this county the evening edition is made over and printed as a morning edition. The subscription price of The Herald is $3.50 a year in advance, or 40 cents a month, delivered by carrier; by mail, within the county the subscription price is $2.50 the vear, in advance. Post subscribers who are paid in advance for that paper will be given credit to the end of their subscription payr.nt on the Herald roll. Any Post subscriber paid in advance, also taking The Herald, will receive credit on his Herald subscription for all money paid in advance for the Post. Within the next two weeks a representative of The Herald will call on all former Post subscribers in Provo and the Provo rural routes to explain the combination of the two papers and to adjust any difference in subscription matter. With the combination of the two papers Provo and Utah county may expect a larger, better, more representative newspaper in The Daily Herald. That is what the management of this newspaper now promises more than three thousand subscribers. nominated Ernest BamMr. Bamberger was ,. elected by acclamation.
