Order your dry -goods from London ; buy of peddlers as often and as much as possible; go to some other place . to get your printing done; contribute what information you have to any but your own paper; glory in the downfall of some man who has done much to build up the place; if A stranger comes to town tell him. ' everything is ' over- done and predict a general crash of the town in the near future; .keep, every cent you get and don't do any- thing 'of `public nature unless you can get something out of it directly; Pat- ronize outside papers to the exclusion of your own, and then denounce them for not being as large as the city pap- ers; If you are a merchant don't adver, tise in the home` paper but buy a rub• ber stamp and use that—it inay save a few dimes and make the paper look as if it was published by amateurs in a One-horse town.
