Postage.

Commencing with January 1, 1875, new regulations were made by the P. O. department relative to newspaper postage. The postage on the papers of all regular subscribers must be paid, by the publishers, at the office where they mail the papers. By this arrangement, the readers of the Signs will observe that their postage on this paper must be paid here instead of the office where they receive them. Some publishers are taking advantage of the new postal law and charge 25 cents extra on their subscription price, when, by the old law, the postage was only 20 cents a year on the same papers. Now it is a little less than that sum.
You will observe our directors and Conference officers have decided to keep the price of the Signs at $2.00 per year, but give our subscribers the privilege of remitting the postage if they see fit. Many of our trial subscribers have said in ordering the paper that they would "pay the postage." There is no way they can do it now but to remit us a sum equivalent to the postage, as it must be paid here. Some are doing this, as you will notice by the receipts of small sums in this number. Others may do the same, if they choose to do so. J. N. L.
