fourth more space that u column in either
Of the other papers. Neither do we charge
anything extra to our home advertisers for
the additional amount Of circulation we
have over our neighbors, although our
foreign advertisers willingly pay US a
higher rate. We know of one or two who
call themselves newspaper men who will.

down on rates from one half to one third.
They do this way with men that will not
advertise with them under any other con-
ditions, while they charge men who are
willing to pay, the regular rates. When
men do this Kind of business it is sure

The Chicago Tribune's position on the
leading measures now before the country
may be condensed into the following en-

As Agricuhure is the basis of National
GREAT interest urootps the prosnerty . of
the whole country The cost of transpor-
tation Of Western farm products to for
eign markets consumes half the selling
value, and the high duties levied to sub
sidize special interests doubles the retail
price Of the goods received in exchange
for the crops, thus bleeding and burden
ing the farmer until he staggers from
weakness under the weight of the load.
