usual, a bid of 25A cent? a line,
and the Journal, as usual. 2" cents!
a line. But papers outside the j
county 6eat were on hand this j
time and The Bend Bulletin's lid
of 12 cents per line was promptly j
accepted." i
To the casual reader the above
Ftatement looks very well; under
neath it has a different appearance.
It us eee what the fact? disclose.
The Bend Bulletin's circulation
in Crook county is approximately
200. About 123 papers go into
the Bend post office alone where
they have only a local circulation.
The Journal's circulation in Crook
county is approximately 700, of
which 275 go into the post office
at Prineville, the balance of over
400 being distributed throughout
the county.
The basis of advertising rates in j
anv newspaper is toumleU pn-
. .
- . . . .
marily upon that particular paper's
circulation, the latter being the
' , s
most important factor m determ-tnak
. . . .
ming the real worth of the ne - s -
. ,
paiier to the ones using its co -
1 .... . n.
umns for publicity. It not a
... . ..
remarkablv creditable iiertormance
if the Bulletin gouges the public
for two or three times what its
tervices are worth, and it does not
stand to reason to believe that
The Journal, with a circulation of
three and a half times that of the
Bulletin's in Crook county alone,
could undertake, conr-idering only
its additional cost of publication,
to print matter al the eame rate as
that submitted by The Bulletin to
the county court.
It would be a losing proportion
Besides no one would expect to pay
for the same work as little or less
to a paper which was iierforming
nearly four times the service of a
competitor. Likew ise. if The Jour
nal had submitted a bid for the
delinquent tax list on the same
"morally pure" basis as the Bulle-'
tin, its contract bid would have I
been 42 cents per line instead of ;
25 cents, but even at the latter
figure there is represented three
Ana one halt tunes the amount of
service jierforined as can possibly '
oeoDUined through the columns I
of the Bulletin
So much in answer to the
Bulletin's attempt to lead the pub
lic into believing that graft ex
isted in the local paper's bid. If
the taxpayers are interested in the
matter at all, let them look a little
further and see the pinnacle upon
which the Bulletin stands high
and dry above tho crest of immoral
taint.
The delinquent tax list for this
year will amount to, say 400 lines.
Crook county will pay the Bulle
tin, on the bapi3 of 200 circula
tion, TWENTY-FOUR cents for
every county resident whose name
appears on the Bulletin's list. In
other words, the work performed
by the Bulletin costs the couuty at
the rate of TWENTY-FOUR cents
for each of tho 200 residents of the
county who are subscribers to that
paper.
Taking The Journal's circula
tion and rate into consideration
the same work would have been
performed at a cost of a fraction
over 14 cents per name, besides
giving the county the benefit of
circulating its delinquent tax list
among three and a half times as
many people in the county as w ill
see it in the Bulletin.
In the face of this was The Jour
nal really attempting to graft
when it offered an honest contract
rate a rate which is 10 dents per
name cheaper than the Bulletin's?
Or was the Bulletin in its

but
this much mav
be said for
llim, i
that whether he deserves it or not
he eniovs the confidenee of the
gront marses of the American peo-;
pi.-. The task which he set before !
himseli in the writing of "Frenzied
Finance" was one from which a ;
man of even approved courage:

entrenched body of financial free
booters that ever sailed under the
black flag. He knew from exper
ience precisely what that meant.
He was aware of the devious and
powerful agencies that would be
set to work to encompass his ruin.
But he tackled his job like a real
man. He called a spade a spade
and it is scarcely too much to say
that his brutal frankness almost
caused his earlier readers to hold !
their breath to see what would:
next happen. I
l.awson is master of a style T
peculiarly his own. He has had
much experience in wiiting, par
ticularly in preparing the robus
tious style of advertising which he
so long affected. Out of this has
grown his so-called ''style." and,
while it will not square with all
the canons, it possesses a virility,
a pictureequeness and a nervous
energy that many men who make
a trade of writing! might envy. It
has made a tremendous hit with
the reading public, not because of
j its mechanical construction alone,
ibut because there appeared back
of it complete knowledge of facts
stated, a lively appreciation of
their significance and relations,
but above all because their ap
peared to be a clearly-defined sin
pub-jcerity of purpose that indicated
truth-lclling. No man In recent
