Publishers Of newspapers who desire
to furnish the Directory with a state
ment of circulation are supplied with
a blank which takes for granted the
following conclusions:
Every publisher is either willing or unwilling 10
have his circulation published in the Directory.

ton published the publishers of the Directory owe
it to their patrons to state why the information is
withheld This they do by inserting the words ::
" Objects to stating circulation.''
THIRD.

shall be published for competing journals,
FOURTH.
That none but true calculations may be published
it is necessary that bat explicit statements be

A statement intended to convey explicit informa-

of its meaning being misconstrued.

another may vary it more II none vary it, all will

The blank is entirely unobectionable to those who
DESIRE to furnish full and explicit information.

If a publisher makes statement Of circulation.
it is fair to presume that it is from Indifference

their book. For ali such cases the editor OF the
Directory has instructions to estimate the circula
ton from the best information open to him.
The Directory estimates the circulation of no
newspa per until after application has been made
to it's publisher for the actual figures, and suf-
ficient time allowed to eapse for the statement to
come to hand had any such been forwarded.
1t is believed that publisher of newspaper ex
presses dissatisfaction with the circulation &C
PAPER DIRECTORY who does not desire to i'm
press the public that his edition is greater than it
in reality.
The reason given by several publishers for not fur
nshing authoritative statement of their circua-
ton for publication in the AMERICAN NEWS
PAPER DIRECTORY is that many advertisers be-
eve the circulation to be greater than it really is
and this is an advantage to the publisher which
would be lost if actual facts should be made known
An unusual number of publishers of tho leading
daily papers are this year furnishing the AMERI-
CAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY with the actual
figures of their circulation.

Lyon county mas submitted q PROPOSE

gauge road from Empori2 to Arkansas

Emporia feels compelled to build this

The people OF Emporia have had our

reka. This would result In the loss OF all
