NEWSPAPER BOUNCE.


For some cause not quite Ineligible to the
unsophisticated, several of our cotemporaries
nave gone into the business, lately, OF At
tempting to outbrag each other in regard to
circulation. According to flaming statements
figuring at the head of their editorial columns,
there must be q perfect rush, spasm, and ma
mia on the part of everybody to subscribe to
newspapers at this, usually dull season OF
the year; and every newspaper Of them is in
creasing in circulation at the rate of many
thousands per diem. A gentleman OF math-
emaucal turn of mind in our ONCE has made 8
calculation, in which he figures up that, ia
king these statements as gospel, the united
circulation OF the papers in question must
reach some 100000 copies daily, which
tells pretty well for us as reading people
The only fear is that this enormous consump.
ton Of prin ting paper may result in a runous
increase o. price in that article, which would
work badly for us all. Seriously. however,
we bmit that this sort of "bounce" deceives
nobody, and lowers the reputation OF the pro-
fession A copy of yesterdays issue of city
paper, in which the modest claim was put for
ward ola Jack OF the. bean stalk growth, over
topping all its contemporaries, was placed last
night upon the desk of every member of the
City Councils, probably to influence action
upon the pending resolution, designating the
papers to which the corporation advertis-
ing should be given. But we do not suppose
that single member was humbugged
by this auctioneer style OF appeal.
The fact Is, as we have already said,
such representations really deceive nobody.
There is not newspaper office in the city IN
which the number OF copies, within hundred,
printed daily by each and every one OF its CO.
tsmporaries is not known; and also how many
OF these are given away, or sold to newsboys
alta nominal price. Neither are the people
deceived. for every man in the community
knows what paper is most taken in his
aeighborhoed. We do not propose to follow
the example Of our contemporaries, but have
only to say that the Star pursues the even
tenor Of its way. 1t has never Jumped nm
with mushroom growth by the thousand.
but has steadily increased in circulation wear
by year with the grow tn OF the city. Our advsr-
Using columns show for themselves, and need
no vouchers to tell what paper is recognized
by the people as the most desirable ad yertisiae
medium and as there is scarce family in the
District not visited daily by the STAR, it would
be superfiuous to vouch to an entire community
of our subscribers con corning its circulation.
When, however, any definite test OF circula
ton is required, we shall be able to show
indisputably-lst, that the STAR has more than
double the number Of subscribers in the Dis
trics that any other paper has, and, ID that
our daily circulation is, very nearly, II not
quite double that Of any other paper pub
lfshed here.
