The Chicago Daily News has reduced its price from two cents to One Cent per copy.
For its sales have been "a-million-a-week " and it believes it the lead in ideal
a year past over - - - , now sees way to safely placing an H
American daily paper upon the basis of the lowest unit of American coinage one cent , *
To successfully accomplish this end two things are essential : fl
First To make as good a newspaper as the best , if not a little better ; second to let every man , woman and child in the H
Northwest know it's being done , and done at cne cent a day. The Daily News believes that it is competent to take care of H
the first named condition , and knows of no better way of meeting the second than by general newspaper advertising. To do the * H
latter most effectively it here solicits the co-operation of all who believe themselves competent to write an effective newspaper H
advertisement. To induce the best effort in its service in this matter The Daily News will reward the writers of the three best B
advertisements submitted , with three cash prizes , aggregating Fifteen Hundred Dollars , divided as follows : S
First Cash Prize For best advertisement , - - - - - - - - $ iooo.oo
Second Cash Prize For second best advertisement , - - - - - 300.00 'M
Third Cash Prize For third best advertisement
, - - - - - - 200.00
Total , - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - $1,500.00
The advertisement may be a single announcement , or a series of announcements not exceeding six in number. The space I
required must not exceed that occupied by this advertisement eight inches deep , six and one-quarter inches wide. 9
For the general guidance of all who enter the competition , the following ten points are briefly stated as being those which The I
DAILY News will require to be most prominently brought out. The advertisement must emphasize : -9

The Daily News is a short-and-to-the-point-paper It's a good place to live in let's make the best of it. | H
3 That The Daily News is an independent , truth-telling newspaper. 7 That Tun Daily News costs a great deal of money to make. Because H
Because the American people arc intelligent enough to prefer honest , there is sometimes no way of demonstrating tlie value of a thing to H
