Despite the frequent assertions to
the contrary. the power of the press
has vastly increased in the half a
century and few years over which
are included in this survey. The
$500 newspapers and periodicals
published in 1855 have increased to
$4,000 at the beginning of 1911. and
the circulation then $4,000, 900 a
year, has expanded at ratio scores
Of times greater than the increase
in number. The instanteous COM
