congress, lucre will not be less than
85 new faces, both democratic and
republican, in the 02d congress.
Conspicuous among tho men defeat
ed is W. W. Cocks, former President
Koosevelt's most intimnto friend umi
the representative from his district.
In all Greater New York only Uo
publican Congressman Calder, from
tho sixth district in Brooklyn, was
elected.
Herbert Parsons, former chair'
man of the republican county com
mittee of New York; William S.
licunctt, whoso nomination for gov
ernor by tho republicans was pre
vented by Colonel Roosevelt, and
William Bennett are among the Man
hattan congressmen who fell with
out tlio breastworks.
Soreno E. Payne, co-author of the
tariff law, 1ms his plurality materi
ally reduced, but, won out.
Tho democrats gain two congress
men in Maryland, two in Massachus
etts, one in Virginia nnd one in North
Carolina. In Ohio tho democrats
claim to have captured tho entire
congressional delegation, with tho
exception of Nicholas Longworth in
tho first district.
Tn Kentucky, Caleb Powers, twice
tried for the murder of Governor
Goebel, was the only republican suc
cessful. Illinois, republican hend
qunrtcrs admit, spelled dieter to
tho party, as did Kansns.
Victor Berger, probably tho best
known socinlist in the United States,
will hnvo the honor of boincr the first
'socialist chosen to concrcss. His

The rest om the stnto ticket and
the legislature Is safely republican.
Tho standpatters, however, hold the
balance of power, and might comblno
with tho democrats to elect a con
servative senator to succeed tho late

It Is expected that a bitter fight
over tho choice of Dolllvor's successor
will develop and It Is predicted .that
snob a combination might bo made.
Tho democrats claim four congress

to concede defeat.

CIRCULATION
Water nns n trcmcmloiis circula
tion nil over the earth, but when
it rims through a meter, wo be
gin to value it.
Tl.o first time there nmy bo nil
sorts of reasons why n man buys
tin article, but tho second time
Micro is only one ho wants It.
fJJThoro Is pcrhnps more Juggling with tho word Circu
lation than with any other In tho language. Somo
publications count each man In tho composing, press
and mailing rooms nnd postofflec, thon allow flvo
members in each family to which tho paper goes for
each copy printed, nnd call tlitt circulation. Others send out thousands ot Bamplo
copies and call that circulation. Still others print and stack nway throo-quartors
of tholr editions, and that Is anothor form of circulation. Ihit paid circulation
tho kind that costs real monoy to tho reader Is truo circulation. No man places
any particular valuo ou tho thing for which ho does not pay, and this is espec
ially truo of papers and magazines. Nlno-tnnlhs of tho samples go unread into tho
wnsto paper basket. Wherein Is tho valuo to tho ndvcrtlsor? On tho other hand
it Is a psychological fact that a man will read through a mngnzlno for which ho
tns paid, oven though it bo neither In foresting nor Instructive, on tho principle that
no Is getting his money's worth. Horo lies tho especial value to tho advertiser In
every paid subscription.
(JIn all lines of business the best proof that anything
possesses virtue In Itself Is Its continuous salo to tho
snmo persons year after year. It an articlo Is unsatis
factory to tho buying public a now flold must con
stantly bo sought for Us exploitation nnd tho old
abandoned. Tho nowspnpor with a circulation mndo
up largely of thoso who havo been Bubscrlbors for years Is oxtromoly strong through
this following. It shows that its energies are exorted on Its editorial ond, and tho
pooplo rend It bocauso thoy appreciate it. This makes it tho host of advertising
medium. Tho nowspapor which secures largo numbers of now subscribers ovory
year and docs not get renewals exhibits splendid activity in Its subscription, but
not In Its editorial department. As an advertising medium it doos not comparo with
the former, becauso pcoplo plnco conftdenco ovon in tho advortlsomonts ot publica
tions which thoy lwo tried and not found wanting. Tho history ot circulation
growth of the Mall Trlbuno Is not equalled by nny other nowspopor anywhere In n
clt7 tho size ot Mcdford, and ie an cxnmpio of a most healty and consistent dovclop-
mont. It Is tho official paper of Med ford and Jackson county.
I
"When n man has goods to sell flWhen a man hns goods to soil ho gonorally goes whoro
lio generally goes where ho am ho can find cuBtoraors. A real cstato agent who would
find customers" go down among tho tenements to soil land at a thou
sand dollars a front foot wouldn't last long, neither
would ho succeed If ho button-holod ovory Individual on tho strcot. Ho might Btrlko
luck, but ho would wnsto an awful lot of onorgy. So It Is If a man has anything
to soil. Ho goes after peoplo who aro interested and enn buy. Ho goes to tho papor
with a bona fldo paid circulation thoso which havo tho rlcht kind of a circulation.
Nono is wasted. Tho subscriber to a live paper reads tho advertisements with nB
much avidity as ho does tho reading matter.
