The DEMOCRAT now enjoys the
largest subscription list of any weekly
paper published in this part of
Kansas; and the list is growing each
week. We have made sworn
affidavit as TO our actual circulation
and invite an inspection of our
books by advertisers. We make the
assertion, without fear of successful
contradiction, that this paper reaches
more readers each week than do the
two other weekly papers and the
little daily all combined. Advertisers
will reach more readers through the
DEMOCRAT columns than through all
the other papers, and at about one
half the cost. For instance, a ten
inch space in this paper will cost
S1.00 week. In the Register 80
cents, the Tribune 80 cents and the
Item about so cents-or $40 in the
three. Yet more readers will be
reached in this paper for S1.00
week than If the same space were
taken in the three others at 1910
This is cold, business proposition,
and we invite all advertisers to in
vestigate il thoroughly.
