No More Subscriptions Taken for Record-Herald. No more subscriptions will be taken by The Democrat for the Chicago Record-Herald, and our clubbing arrangements with that paper have been cancelled by us. The reason for this is that the R-H, without making any reservations in its contract, declines to fill a subscription sent it to go to North Dakota for the same rate charged us in Indiana, >2.50. but "wints 70c more, or $3.20 for a subscription in North Dakota. The postage is the same in each case, and no reason is given for the hold-up of the North Dakotians. Consequently we have cancelled our clubbing contract with that paper and will take no more subscriptions for it at any price. The Record-Herald is the only paper we know' of that punishes a subscriber because he happens to live in North Dakota. At least this is the first time we ever run up against a like proposition in our nearly twfenty-five years of newspaper experience.
