by fur thn largot advertising medium
In Plnttn county.
Thn Dally Journal's voyage up lo

characteristic of the Hart year'a life
of n dntly imper in a mall city. It
lost money in tho beginning. Our
businima competitors knocked and Mid
It wonld not hold out. Many of our
bent friends believed them and urged
us to drop it. We never askod any man
to subsoribo for or advertlte In the
Dally Journal on the grounds that It
was mi Infant home industry that
noodnd proteotlnn. Wo never asked
for political or other support but have
kept pounding away, giving our
subscribers the best news service we
could command and to give our ad
vertisers tho full value of their money.
And nt Inst, in lets than a year from
onr starting, we havo a circulation
thnt places a small txtlauce on the
profit side of our ledger eaoh week
and that assures our advertisers the
best snrvloo thny can get in Platto
county. It is no longer a question of
whether a business man can alford to
advertise iu thn Journal, but it Is
a question ot whether ho can afford
to my nlNwehero just ns much to
roach KM) or 500 oopln less than bn

appreciate tho libeial patronagn of
thn advertisers who have steered us
through tho breakers. We appreciate
thn subscription patronage that has
grown till wo can absolutely guarantee
thnt so long ns wn are hero thn Dally
Journal will oontluuo its existence.
Wo want every Journal subscriber
to tool that hn is a stockholder In a
dnlly newspaper whose service is ind
icated to thn upbuilding of our ex
cellent little city, and to the in
terests, moral and liuancial, of eaoh
individual nttl.en. This announce
ment dons not mean that we have
stopped pushing. It means that you
have dimply helped ns on whero wo
nan push more effectively in tho
future. Wn wnut more subscribers;
wn want more of onr readers to send
us the news , wn want more job work.
And most of nil wo want you to
understand thnt wn appreciate your
