Uniform Advertising Rates to All!

Let's Ia k business this morning
We told you about increasing th,
efficiency OF our advertising ser,
vice, by using the combined cir,
oHlatlon of both the Democrat and
the Press for all advertising
This gives you the attention Of
four times as many people, as any
other medium can offer. Still our
rates won't be fonr times as great
but on the other hand circulation
considered, will be less than half
what you pay elsewhere. Because
our first purpose is to encourage
every industry and build up ey.
cry business, We are going to fix
our prices at a very low figure, 80
low in fact that our margin of
profit will be merely enough for a
bare living and only sufficient to
enable us to give you effective.

In this article is that there will be
no favOritism. Our rates will be
