When a person stops to look over
the state of North Dakota, and more
particularly, IL one visits the different
communities Of the state, he will be
brought to the realization that a large
part of the population of our state,
in fact a majority of the people in
certain portions Of the state are eth
er Germans or German Russian ma
tionality.
Realizing this fact, and knowing
that these people did not have the
benefit of a newspaper covering the
state and publishing the local news
in their language, but few of them
being able to read any but their own
language. the publishers of the Pierce
County Tribune: at Rugby, Pierce
county, IN August, 1906, establish
ed a. German Supplement- to their
paper and a short time later this
supplement was changed to an indie.
pendent paper, and was renamed, Der
Stats Anzeiger.. In July, 1907, the
editorsh1p and management of this
paper was turned over to Mr.. F. L..
Brandt, gentleman Of thirty odd
years. experience in German news
paper, work, and; under his guidance
this newspaper has come to be recog-
nized as the leading and only Ger
man state newspaper, and its good
name has gone abroad over several
other states having German COM
munities. This newspaper is now
read in over 1000 homes each week,
and its rapid growth Is beyond the
most sanguine hopes of it's publish
ers. It is safe estimate to say that
Der Stats Anzeiger goes into each
and every German home in Pierce
county, and 1t Is estimated that fifty
per cent of the population of the
county is German, and going outside
its home county it's circulation is al
so very heavy in Benson, Ramsey,
McHenry, Bottineau, Ward, Mclean,
Sheridan, Wells, Stutsman, Logan,
Mcintosh, Emmons, Morton, Oliver,
and Mercer counties. Northern South
Dakota Is also nicely covered by tiis
newspaper, and scattering circulation
in Texas, Oregon, Washington and
our neighboring state of Minnesota.
From the splendid returns which
have accrued to those who have used
the columns of Der Stats Anzeiger
for advertising purposes, there is no
doubt that. this paper is valuable to
a remarkable degree, particularly and
especially to those engaged in the real
estate, live stock, insurance and colo
nization matters. The most fatter-
ing testimonials have been received
from those, who have placed their
advertising patronage with Der
Stats Anzeiger. For the benefit of
those wao are unable to translate
their copy, this can be done at the
Office of this newspaper, and the ac-
curacy thereof guaranteed.
Realizing at all times, the need of
prompt and efficient service to both
readers and advertising patrons, an
absolutely modern equipment, includ-
ing a Merganthaler Standard Limo
type of the latest model, has been
installed, and in addition to the work
on the newspaper, this Office has in
stalled the necessary equipment for
handling all kinds Of job work, etc.,
to the best advantage, and the fact
that this Office is thus enabled to fur.
nfsh such service in the German
language is regarded as a splendid
accommodation to those who fire.
quently have occasion to place GER
tain matters before the German pop
ulation Of the state, in their own
language.
