Advertising r ates.

Hereafter the Rogue River Courier
will not accept complimentary tickets
in payment Of advertising announcing
entertainments, etc., as all advertising
carried in this paper must be on cash
basis. II the proprietor desires
tickets he will purcba them, and if
advertising is wanted it must be paid
for in similar manner. All notices
of entertainments, socials and other
church functions which are not planned
for making money will be published
as in the past, free Of any charge, but
where an admission fee is charged all
such notices must be paid for at the
regular advertising rates, viz: cents
per line per issue. This plan has been
adopted by the great majority of
newspapers and the Courier
believes that the plan is just one to
all concerned. The newspaper bust.
ness today is conducted along the same
lines as any other business enterprise
and should be considered as such.
The Courier advertising rate card
is also amended, commen cling with
the LIST Of March. and the commercial
rate will be 10 cents per inch per issue
for all advertising occupying less than
20 inches of space; more than 20 in
ches of space will be charged for
at the rate OF 10 cents per inch for
space and cents per inch for com.
position. Political notices and read
ers will be charged for at the rate of
10 cents per line each insertion; po-
litioal display, 80 cents per inch.
There will be no deviation from these
rates.
