The Stag as an Advertising
Medium.

For the past eight months there has
been from sixteen to twenty-five COL
umns OF bona tide advertisements in the
STAR. No effort has been made to pro-
cure advertisements from distance no
Quack medicines or other advertising of
things in which the community is not
interested has been given place in our
columns. With the acceptance Of all
these catch advertisements that benefit
community little, several columns more
OF standard advertisements could easily
be secured. What is the meaning of
this large and well sustained advertising
patronage, but it pays those who thus
eXpend their money in patroniaing the
columns OF the STAR to tell their friends
what they have tor the public. The fact
of the cause is that the large circulation
OF this journal is among the best produ-
GERS Of the Sound those who
afford the best market for the wares of
tue artisan and merchant consequently
very few who have tried our columns
find they can afford not to patronize us.
AS matter Uf course the merchants and
other business men of this river find it
to their interest to patronize the STAR,
yet they are not the only ones, rs we
have carried some ten or twelve columns
of Seattle advertisements, many cuntinu-
ing our patrons almost from the first
number OF the STAR, and not few as
suring US that our columns brought
them more new custom than their own
enterprising journals published in Seattle
where they were presumably known, and
speaking from personal knowledge, we
can add that our patrons embrace nearly
all the representative business men Of
this county, with the most enterprlsing,
liberal, go-ahead men OF Seattle, as well
as OF other places.
With thanks tor this liberal support
in the past, we expect soon to So Increase
our circulation and improve it IN many
other respects, that it will be worth still
more to all who may patronize its col
umns hereafter in this way.
