' i Perhaps it Was a coincidence that th'e,X)rgonian ceased making stotementa to the directory in 1903, when aUtement' was first received from The Journal, which was not established till 1902- Before that the Oregonian had reported wp fair regularitythe average for 1902 being 28,591, a gain of just eleven copSes over 1901. The supplemental statement of The Journal in the Roll of Honor shows a healthy growth in circulation from 15,204, average for 1904, to 23,118, average for Aug ust, 1905. Of course the Telegram, and especially the Oregonian, which has been awarded the so-called Gold Marks (that la, advertisers value the paper more for. the class and quality of circulation than' for the mere number of copies tnnted), have the prestige of years, but The Journal is particularly healthy youngster. - , - It may not be known to everyone that the Telegram is practically an evening edition of the Oregonian. If The Journal proves to be the permanent success its present progress would indicate, it will be the first opposition newspaper that has suc ceeded in getting a foothold in Portland during all the more than 40 years since the Oregonian staked out its claim there.
