Nebraska During 1909
During the week of December 21 to 28
inclusive, The Lincoln State Journal will
accept $3 from mail subscribers for the
whole year of 1909. without Sunday, or $4
with Sunday. The regular price is $4 and
$5. This cut-price is good only during
this Bargain Week, and all you have to do
is to mail your remittance to the State
Journal, Lincoln, Nebr., and the paper
will be mailed to your address commenc
ing January 1, 1909, and continue until
January 1, 1910, when it will be stopped
unless you pay for it another year. All
subscriptions are payable in advance, con
sequently no unpaid bills, and this saving
together with cutting out solicitors' salar
ies, hotel bills and railroad expenses make
it possible to give you this cut-price. The
Journal is the paper yon will want to read
during the legislature because its right
here in Lincoln and with its great corps of
trained newspaper men will be able to
give you the most thorough and reliable
legislative news. It is uncontrolled by
party bosses or selfish ambition to hold or
get a job for its proprietor. It is not
afraid to print all the news all the time
about all things. Is is a clean home
paper, no liquor or unclean medical ads.
appear in its columns. Its business is
profitable enough to 'give its owners legiti
mate returns without making alliances
with any interests opposed to the public
welfare. Every public matter is treated
impartially, unselfishly and entirely from
the standpoint of the people's interest.
One years' reading will coovince you that
the State Journal is truly Nebraska's
greatest newspaper. Kemember, this spe
cial rate is only made during this one
week of December 21 to 28 to get new
subscribers and regular price of $4 and $5
will be charged thereafter. Why not test
the Journal this one year and see if its
publishers are really conducting their
newspaper upon such high standards?
