IMPORTANT TO ADERTIsERs.

Advertisers who desire to reach the greatest number of readers, who adver- tise for business and not simply as a matter of habit regardless of conse- quences, should bear in mind that the Journal Miner has the largest cir culation of any paper published in Prescott. Accordingly advertising space is worth more, based on circula- tion than in any other paper.
 This is no idle boast but can be verified by all examination of the books. The Journal Miner is willing to permit an examination of its books and mailing galleys, to demonstrate this fact.
