The APPEALS News Budget.
On February 20, just six months ago,
the first copy of the Chicago edition of
the APPEAL was issued. The success
achieved in half a year is phenomenal,
and without parallel in the history of
Colored journalism. The APPEAL came
into the field with paper ten years old
to compete with, yet, at the end ofsix
short months we find the APPEAL has
the largest circulation of any paper pub
lished in the city of Chicago. The Ap-
PEAL has succeeded because it is the peo-
pies paper. The APPEAL folks don't try
to run Chicago and it's Colored citizens:
they devote their time and energy to
producing spicy, newsy, breezy, paper.
The APPEAL has the popular heart, and
everybody knows it. All the intelligent
progressive Colored people of Chicago
read the APPEAL regularly. They must
do so to keep up with the procession.
