st ler the above a sufficient provoca
tion to justify them in ordering the
Jo iru.il man to "stop their paper.’
The Leader is Forginq Ahead by Leaps
and Bounds— The Circulation Nearly
Doubled in Past Two Months.
The circulation, advertising and
job priuting patronage of thé Lane
County L eader is still increasing at
a most astonishing and highly satis-
factory rate. During the month of
„ I, .. to
,
May fully 100 new names were ad
led to our subscription book, but
all records were broken Inst week
wheu the names of SIXTY’ new
subscribers were recorded
on
our books. The people have ascer
tained the fuet that the L eader
covers the news field thoroughly,
even supplying the cream of the
court home and county seat news
which renders it no longer necessary
to take the county seat papers to get
the county news. The L eader has
also proven itself just as reliable as
it is newsy and that accounts for it*
rapidly increasing popularity. The
following list tof new subscribers
has been enrolled in our subscription
book since the last issue of the
L eader :
