probably suppressed by the Colonial As
sembly. The first newspaper Of Phila-
delphia appeared December %, 1719;
the first In New York, October is, I725.
4 These Of course were all weeklies. Since
that day the growth of journalism in
this country is among the marvels Of
our history, as n few figures, CLEANED
from various sources, will show:
In l754, there were four newspapers
in Boston, two in New York, two in
Philadelphia, and one in Williamsburg,
| Virginia; in the whole country not
another. From that time till 1776, the
year of the Declartion Of Independence,
the numbers increased considerably. In
that year there were seven in Massachu-
sets, one in New Hampshire, two in
| Rhode Island, four in Connecticut, four
in New York, nine in Pennsylvania,
two each in Maryland, Virginia, and
North Carolina, one in Georgia--37 in
all. One of these-the AdUertiser, of
Phlladelphia-Was a semi-weekly; all
the rest We're weeklies. From 1776 to
1900 the number of newspapers in the
United States increased to 200, of which
several were daiIes, the first daily hav-
ing been the Pennsylvania Packet, or
the General AdUertiser, which, under
an abbreviated title, lived until 1887. Ac-
cording TO the records of 1910 the num-
Der Of newspapers in the country at that
time was 1853, of which p were dailies.
and their total annual issue Was D.
81 900 copies. In 1924 there were IL
dailies in Philadelphia and u IN New
York, with a circulation varying from
1000 TO 4000 copies. In 1923 the whole
number of journals had increased to $50,
with yearly issue of 68,II7,I79 copies.
in 1880 the number was estimated at
lOOO. The census Of 1910 returned 1881
newspapers, with a yearly issue of
l95, $685. copies, or an average of near
ly y copies to each person in the popu-
latlon, and Of a little over I2 Journals to
every 100000 inhabitants. In 1850 the
number of dailies was 254, with an
average circulation of 5000 copies each. |
In 1850 there were 1856 dailies. 70 BIZ !
weeklies, 86 tri-weeklies, and 3I73
weeklies. The number of sheets issued /
annually was: dailies, AIS, ,435; tri- |
weeklies, l07, 10; bi-weeklies, 275, ,I65;
weekiies, Z, 5Sl, $50, making a total of
9,342, $50. At the present time, accord |
ing to George P. ROwell & Co.'s |
american Newspaper DiTectOT1J, the |
number of dailies in the country is 526;
OF the tri-weeklis, I08; of semi-Weeklies.
ll3; of weeklies, 480S. The amount of /
circulation of all these papers is not
giveni but it is safe 20 assume that the
increase in the last ten years has been
very great. think it can be no exag-
geraUion if we set the number at 25,-
100000 of copies.

II is instructive and encouraging 70
glance at the history of American Jour
nalism. 1t was not until the LAPSE OF
two centuries after the discovery of the
art Of printing that the idea was con-
ceived of applying that art to the pro.
duction of anything like public news
paper. In the fourteenth and fifteenth
centuries, indeed, the need of such an
agency for the diffusion of intelligence
among the people was scarcely felt, and
the prediction that q newspaper, in the
modern sense of the word, could ever
have an existence, would no doubt have
been regarded as an evidence of the
widest lunacy. 1t has been impossible
to fix with certainty the date at which
the first public journal made its ap-
pearance; we only know-perhaps /
should rather say conjecture-that il
was some time in the sixteenth century.
and in Italy. The first newspaper in
England was established in 1867. The
PuTltans had printing press at Cam
bridge Massachusetts as early as 1889, but
the first newspaper in America-the
Boston Nss0s Letter-did not appear
until sixty-five years later, to-wit: in
l4O4. Fourteen years earlier, however.

about to dawn upon our State, which
nothing but the troubled state of our

the brightest she ever witnessed. Let it
not be clouded by any internal eommo-

with the other in adding to its glory and

Vaccinations and lawless acts of selfish
ly ambitious men can provoke such
a disturbance, and il is the duty
and interest Of all good men Of

necessary, put down by the strong arm
