er, with the changes in deposits. the

mencing with the issue of October.
During the last two years the State
Journal Co.. of Lincoln. Neb., had the
contract for the same paper, the price
being $685. per 1000 copies. The con-
tract with Mr.. Pratt calls for 100000
copies each month at $7.45 per thou
sand, which will be saving on each
months issue of $4,000 over the
former amount Forty-five tons of pa
per will be required for the printing
of each months issue 1T is expected
that before the contract with Mr..
Pratt expires 100000 copies of the

be better in several ways. 1t will ia
cilitate the distribution OF the paper.

the Jurisdiction. indianapolis, having
population of about 275.000 people
and such a greater commercial dis
tinction than Lincoln. will be a better
location in regard to advertising. 1t is
believed that the profit from the adj
vertising matter printed will increase
from $4,000, which is THE approx
mate profit at present. to $4,000 a
year.
