ADVERTISING AGENCIES.

Some time since the APPEAL pointed ont to
the press the manner in which it was being
gouged by the advertising agencies, and our
exchanges, which have expressed any opinion
upon the subject, are in full accord with our
viws. This is from the simple fact that there
can BE- but one opinion regarding the matter.
A good many papers are silent concerning the
merits of the case from the fact that probably
fear to lose the advertising which these agen-
cies might possibly throw in their way The
Austin Rereilte says:
The Carson APPEAL devotes over column
space in showing up the manner in which ad-
vertising professionalism business,
and how cutey they swinde the country and
distant newspapers. The newspaper man will
make the most money by having nothing
whatever to do with these professional bilks.
Almost without an exception, these profes.
sional agents should BE- sentenced to a term of
twenty years, if not for life.
Anewspaper which is obliged to depend up
On these agencies for support should never be
published at all. town that will not sup
port good Newspaper does not deserve to
have one. A paper which is crammed with
cuts of organs, carriages, sewing machines and
patent medicines is standing commentary,
either on the incapacity of the editor or the
lack of enterprise on the part OF the business
men of the city where the paper is published.
A live newspaper should be able to command
enough good home advertising to enable it to
thrive without the assistance of cheap adver-
tisements from abroad. As a rule country
newspapers are too large. Publishers are anx
ious to make display and run from five to ten
columns of dead or badly paying advertise
ments in order to convey the idea that they
are doing RI shing business. This Is dead
loss because there are plenty Of men who, if
they find that their advertisement is run after
they have ordered it out, will conclude that it
is . cute stroke of business to get their adver.
tising free. The advertising received
through the agents is usually OF the cheapest
sort and subject to twenty five per cent. dis
count. The agent is not responsible for those
who do not choose to pay and this makes the
q year for the money and then, as a rule, take
it out in ink, paper or material that you don't
want You must in addition use more paper
in printing your journal, and with paper at its
present prices another loss is entailed which
runs your discount into the neighborhood of
seventy.6ve per cent. Now does this pay? 1t
is in the power of the press to cut loose alto
gether from these concerns or compel them to
adopt another system of dealing The best
plan of all would be for publishers to cut down
tho size of issues to the requirements of bust
ness As long as subscribers are furnished
the same amount of reading matter they will
not complain, and every dead advertisement
taken out of paper gives the live ones bet
ter chance. The saving in ink and paper at |
the end of the year will just about equal the
profit made in transacting business through |
an advertising agency.
