not quite two years old yet, and they
have had an uphill pull all the way.
Lake most reformers, they have had
to fight against prejudice and misrep-
resentatlon. But they have made
their way, and made their mark, and
it is only a question of time when
the Jeffersonians will be the voice of
the white people Of the South and
West.
But it takes money to run papers
and magazines. Just "fer min
stance" new magazine in the
North, which is pressing to the front,
spends $4,000 at a clip in postage
stamps on letters to prospective sub
scribers. To develop the Jefferson
ians along the right lines we need
more money, and we are offering
bonds to the amount of $4,000 They
pay seven per cent interest, which is
nearly double the rate paid by most
savings banks, and the investment is
secured in such a manner as to make
it absolutely safe.
After all, the personal equation is
the most powerful factor in the safe
ty Of banks. Safes have time locks,
but cashiers and presidents have
none. In the case Of the Jeffersonian
bonds, the holders have the tangible
property as security and also a per-
sonal guarantee which is worth more
than ALL These bonds are strictly
gilt-edged, in the parlance of the mar
ket.
In looking over our advertising col
umns you will note the absence Of
fraudulent and misleading statements.
We have made it a rule to turn down
every suggestion Of a get-rich-quick
scheme, and every advertisement that
savored of uncleanness or dishonesty.
On our rate cards you Will find the
statement: "No ad. that will offend
or cheat our subscribers inserted at
any price. -
Our advertising columns are grow
ing. We had to enlarge our paper to
four columns to take care Of the ads,
and now we have reduced our rates.
Each week our paper is read by over
100000 people. That means that
when you insert an ad. in the Week
ly Jeffersonian you are sending out a
notice to that number of readers,
Suppose you were to send postal
card to 100000 persons. The postage
alone would cost you LOCO. You get
the same publicity in the Weekly JEFF
fersonian for two or three dollars.
See the point?
By the way, we are running the ads.

would be $64 per acre, aud the value
of one acre would have risen to
$1,000.
Our subscribers have always taken
a keen interest in the growth of the
Jeffersonians, and the quick response
to our appeal last week was both well
come and surprising. We asked, and
we are asking again this week, that
each true Jeffersonian send US at least
one new subscriber this month. To
get forty-four new subscribers, in di-
rect answer to cur appeal, two days
after publication, was a strong proof
that Mr.. Watson s followers do not
allow the grass to grow under their
feet. Keep up the work. Remember
that every convert to the Jeffersonian
faith leads to more conversions. The
chain is endless.
