WHY IT CIRCULATESI
Phenomenal Demand for a
Weekly Newspaper.
IT ADVOCATES POPULAR MEASURES
Characteristic Letters From All
Kinds Of People,

The phenomenal circulation of the
WEEKLY CAPITAL JOURNAL in all the
postofflces of Western Oregon causes
a great deal OF comment, and needs
some explanation. Orders keep pour
ing in by every mail, and while names
are struck off the list as soon as a sub
scription expires the additions sur
pass the expiratlons.
1T IS THE CHEAPEST
Weekly in the state. One year S1.00,
six months so cents, three months 20
cents. At this low price all can afford
to take an Oregon Weekly, and these
hard times they naturally take the
cheapest. 1t is too cheap to do with
out IL, and conducted on the cash in
advance basis, they know they will
not have bill run on them.
THE PEOPLE wANTIT
The people will not pay cash In ad-
vance for paper unless they want 1t
and appreciate it. THE WEEKLY Is
as popular as The ONE CENT DAILY
which is conceded to be the most pop
ular daily in Western Oregon. A man
brought In a silver half dollar the
other day and ordered IL for two
months. He said: 81 can't get work
this winter. can get along without
one meal a day. But | can't get along
without THE ONE CENT DAILY.
These long, cloudy, rainy, winter days
IL comes welcome messenger tocheer
the whole family" The people feel
the same way about the WEEKLY.
FROM NETARTS BAY
comes a cheering letter from subscri- |
ber at Netarts, Oregon who encloses a |
dollar and writes:
