Post Office Inspector Warns to Pay Up by April 1 1908
Caught in Monroe City, W L Reid, a local post office inspector, asserts the law requiring newspapers to collect or drop subscribers in arrears will be enforced. In a bold move he pays a $200 bill and declares all district papers must reconcile accounts, or risk losing subscribers by April 1 1908. The note urges readers of the Monroe City Democrat to settle dues or lose the paper. The item also covers a community social, local notices, and election updates with various names and events throughout the area.
