Blackfoot, Idaho, May q, '07

Dear Sir--I have your valued order
for advertising space, and notice that
you want good position, one column
wide, four-inch space, that you want me
to put you name on my mailing list, and
to do it now before ] lay this letter
aside, and that perhaps am not like
the average editor.
l note too, that you have furnished
copy for reading notice, that you have
indicated heading suitable for dis
play ad., four. r.columns wide, and that
you want the reading notice to go IN at
the display ad rate.
II you will refer to the rate card
sent you on the 10Th, you will see that
display space is fifty cents an inch per
month, and that reading notices are ten
cents a line per week. If you will de-
termne which you want and write your
copy accordingly, we will set it accord
ing to your wishes, but it would not
make good effect to put the head of one
kind on the body of the other. If you
conclude to have reading notice,1please
make the heading about half as long,
and leave out the underscorlng. If.you
conclude to have display ad., it will
need to be more than one column wide
to get it into four inches in depth.
As to putting your name on the mail
ing list, | much prefer to have that done
about A o'clock on Thursday afternoon
when we have all the mailing fgalleys
out on the table for that purpose. Twill
say for your information, however, that
ii your name goes into the galley you
will receive bill for subscription, it be-
ing or custom to do things that way,
but II you simply waat copy as proof
Of publication. | would prefer to enter
your name in another way at about 8
o'clock Friday morning, and in that
case you do not get any bill for sub
scfiptlon.
Ifyou'w explain more fully what
You mean by the average editor, may
be able to determine whether em it or
not, but as yet do not know what sort
Of editors you have been doing business
with.
Hoping that may have the pleasure
OF serving you, | await your further
advice. Very truly,
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1907-05-24

The Parliamentary Class of The Cur
rent Event Club met last Saturday al
Mrs. Byrd Trego's and took up the work
Of the village board which was organ
lied with so much difficulty four weeks
ago, an account of which was published
in The Republican April Goth.
After some routine work slight hitch
occurred when Clerk Fisher MRS. j. A
Collins) presented her bill for Sl5 fol
her monthly salary, saying she wanted
to buy new hat, but the board was
foxy and did not act upon it. AS this
is the last meeting they will hold until
September, it is expected that the vii
lage clerk will have to buy fall hat
instead of summer hat.
The board discussed the weed and
thistle question, and passed an ordl-
nance which they ordered published IN
The Idaho Republican, the full text OF
which will appear elsewhere in this
issue. :.
They then adjourned as village
council and sat as parliamentary class
and elected Mrs Byrd Trego leader for
the coming year, after which they ad-
journed to meet again in September
when they will proceed to govern the
village and county in their sessions, as
basis for study and recreation
