The Gate City refuses to partici-
pate in contests and premiums to get
circulation. It is gratifying to state
that such methods have been un-
necessary. The purpose Is to make
a newspaper that will sell without
any side-lines or extra inducements. |
The fact that the circulation Of the !
paper is almost two thousand greater
than any other Keokuk newspaper
and the city circulation almost double
that of any other Keokuk newspaper
indicates that the method is satisfae- |

value for advertising space purchased |.
