doned for a few words about ourselves.
We have been successfully engaged in general pub

ing presses fifteen of which are double presses and
alone capable of turning out much work as thirty
ordinary, rs-cass presses the outlay for the above
exceeded three hundred thousand dollars cash With.
out any exception ours is the most extensive com.
modious and best appointed subscription publishing
house In the world. Our employees number pearly
five hundred. For the past six years We have run
our printing works more than half the time day and
night Our cash receipts run as high as from one
hundred and fifty TO one hundred and seventy thou
sand dollars per month on regular business course
this campaign business is extra and will largely
increase cur cash receipts.
For the past five years we have paid over five hum
dred thousand dollars for postage alone or over 100
600 per year on an average; this is larger amount
than is paid for postage BY any other firm in the
world. Beyond monthly accounts, which are always
settled in full on the 10Th Of each month we owe no
