BIG CHRISTMAS EDITION

The Republican office will issue a
2O-page Christmas edition this year
Notwithstanding the paper famine
and the scarcity of coloring matter
used for the decorated covers. Last
year we issued farmers and bank
ers' agricultural edition without dis
play advertising in it, and this year
the commercial interests will be in
vited to join with the publisher to
give the patrons G treat.
The paper will be issued early
enough so the Christmas goods that
are on sale can be advertised in time
for Christmas hopping, and we wish
to direct attention of our readers
to the fact that the gift of the Christ
mas edition will be largely the gift
of the advertisers. 1t is only fair
to give their announcements a care
full perusal and their goods an exam
nation, since they can only AFFORD
this extra investment in goods and
publicity with the prospect OF a large
volume of sales.
The condition of the markets this
wear makes it more expensive to put
out a Christmas edition than usual,
but our increased circulation and i'm
proved organization and equipment
enable us to produce it at lower
cost per hundred of circulation than
we ever did before, and dealers find
that advertising in The Republican
is one of the cheapest things they can
Get this fall. The Republican mas
determined upon giving the people
of this county bigger and better
newspaper, and the Christmas edition
and the New Years annual review
will be evidence Ct it. The annual
review will be loaded with intorma-
tion and will be the publisher S
treat Work is now under way on
both editions.

city which buys nothing from it in
return, can offer any inducements to
investors or newcomers.
"A good local market is worth
money to the owner of farm land,
and you can't have good market if
there is no live town.
Some people think the local fur
niture dealer, the clother, the grocer
and the hardware man are robbing
them because there is but one or two
stores of that kind in the town. That
is one excuse for mail order buying.
There is proof to the contrary:
City people are not a, bit smarter
than country folks, and they fall for
the catalog with the pretty pictures
just the same. Why. l heard that
Omaha sends $250,00O a year to one
eastern house that has a fascinating
scheme of selling soap. Now Omaha
has a lot of good stores, big ones, and
competition is so keen that robbery
is impossible. People there have
some other excuse for buying pig
in a poke suppose, and they get
trapped the same way"
