The Chicago Inter Ocean, that great Re
publican newspaper, has not suffered by the
recent era of financial depression but has
gone right along adding to its foundation
stones n large and substantial circulation
with a stride that under ihe circumstances
is truly wonderful. At one time additions
to the subscription list were coming at the
rate of 800 to 1,100 per day for the daily
issue, nnd as high as l.CCO per day for the
Weekly Inter Ocean.
The resale of this is to place it easily at
the head of the list of great Chicago news
papers. It iscortaiuly a good, clean, family
newspaper of the highest order.
Entirely too often one bears the exclama
tion: "Oh, I never read anything in the in
side of a newspaper!" We think this is a
mistake that a great many readers of a pa
per makes, for upon the inside pages ota
many newspapers, exceedingly inter
esting reading matter appears, sometimes
the most interesting in the entire sheet.
Those who fail to look over the inside of the
Northwest miss much instructive reading
such as a column of editorial, the Talmage
sermou, chapter of a serial story, several
short tories, together with miscellaneous
matter, nnd nrtioles upon the tariff. It is
well to read every page of a newspaper. -
