We have perfected arrangements
whereby We are enabled to furnish
The Chicago Weekly Inter Ocean and
our own paper for the cheap price of
two dollars $4,000 per year AS every
body is aware, The Inter Ocean is fast
taking front rank among the most
enterprising and thrifty newspapers of
the day, and it is undoubtedly without
a superior in the West. It's weekly edi-
ton consists of eight large pages, to-
gether with an illustrated colored sup
plement of eight additional pages, the
whole forming well-edited, newsy,
reliable and attractive publ cation.
Recognizing it's true merits, we have
entered into clubbing arrangement
with it's publishers, this being our first
venture in that line. Those who wish
to have The Weekly Inter Ocean and
THE WATERFOWL REPUBLICAN sent to
their address the ensuing year for two
dollars, should call at this office at once
and make their desire known.
