8 * THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : MONDAY , JULY JO. 1886 , Oomparfttivo Oity Circulation of Omaha Dally Newspapers. KEEP IT BEFORE ADVERTISERS , Ami I-.OI Tlicm I'rollt I3y n Cnrcful Study of tlio Solid Facts Proven ly I''ljjnrc8. A careful and thorough canvass of tlio city of Omaha enables ns to present : ! rp- liable r.xhlbit of tlio relative city circula tions of the Omaha clnillos by carrier de livery untl newsdealers. Sncli n censiis verified by Imllsniitablo figures , cannot fail to prove instructive ami SUR- gCfltlvo to Omaha business men and ad vertising patrons generally. The facts nnd figures embodied in this c.\iibit ! com pletely dispel all fiction as to local circu lations , nnd place the advertiser in posi tion to select the medium that Kill give thp largest returns for his outlay. Tlio fact that tlio lir.B had by far tlio largest circulation lias long ago been admitted by everybody. Sworn statements of the goncr.nl and local circulation of the HKE have been published from time to tune , nnd for several months such exhibits have appeared nt tlio head of our editorial columns. This is now supplemented by n detailed showing of our bona fide city subscription through carrier delivery , which forms the basis upon which news papers must stand ns mediums for reach ing the people. Side by side with the figures that represent our homo circulation appear * nlso tlio number of Omaha dailies that circulate in the same territory , divided into currier routes. In conjunction with the comnar.itivo census by carrier routes , wo present the- street numbers on several leading thoroughfares , showing at which houses tlio various daily papers arc delivered by carriers. We could , if wo had the space , produce similar exhibits for every street in the city. Many of thorn would make n more favorable showing for tlio BEE than tiioso presented. In fact there are quite a number of streets on which no other paper than the BEF Is circulated by carrier. This newspaper census was taken be tween tlio ii5th of June and the 10th ot July.Vliatovcr variations there might bo in circulation by carrier delivery would arise chiefly from uhnngo of resi dence. But this variation would not materially change the grand total of cir culation of any Omaha newspaper one way or the other. In computing the aggregate city circu lations of Omaha dailies we have omitted Bales over the office counter and by news boys. These sales vary fiom 500 to 800 dally for the BEE , and similar salea by other papers will boar about the ratio to the BEE ns docs their carrier delivery. Taking the average for the BEK at 000 per day , the Herald's av erage , including Sunday , would not ex ceed 150 , ' that of the Republican and World about 125 ctich. This would give n grand total of the city circulation of the HUE 0,110 ; Herald , 1,111 ; Republican , 809 ; World. 889 , In other words , the BEE cir culates almost twice as many papcrsau Omaha as all the other city dailies com bined , nearly five times as many as the Herald , anil six tim6s as many ns either the JRejntllican or World , Currier Delivery. The followlnir table shows the city circulation of the HF.E , Herald , Hepubllcan nnd World , by carrier delivery , ns reported by canvassers em ployed expressly to talco the newspaper census of Onmlia , tliolr names nppeailnu below : T If Nowidcalcra principally. tNow ruutr Sold by Newsdealers.
