PREFACE. 
 
 This Gazetteer, for the United States and British America, is ottered 
 the adA^ertiser as a compendium of the latest and most useful knowledge 
 of towns, localities or sections, wherein newspapers are published. It 
 will enable him to form a correct judgment of their desirability as places 
 in which to make an advertising investment, while he may obtain from it 
 the commercial, agricultural, manufacturing or mining localities in any com- 
 bination he may desire. He will also be able to note the characteristics of 
 the people among whom his advertisement is to be sent, and Avill know the 
 extent of their culture and the strength of their population. He Avill be able 
 to form, in fact, a fair judgment of the probable result of an advertising 
 venture. 
 
 For the matter given in this book the publishers have drawn but little 
 from contemporaneous works. It is composed only of the latest and most 
 reliable intelligence which could be procured from the towns designated, 
 all of which information is given, up to the year 1873, as clearly and as accu- 
 rately as is possible in a work of this nature. The growth of the country is 
 so rapid in its population, so vast in its development, so varied in its indus- 
 tries, so rich in natural advantages, and so enterprising in its railroad facil- 
 ities, that changes of all kinds are constantly at work. There are so many 
 of these changes that the ponderous publications familiar as " Gazetteers,'' 
 often become too old, for biisiness use, before the day of their publication. 
 It is the object of the publishers of this work to give all of the information 
 needed by the advertiser, in its most condensed form, as accurately as possi- 
 ble, and up to the latest date, so that it may be of practical use to him in his 
 calculations concerning the business of advertising.

 This is the only Agricultural .Journal published in the State, and has a large circula-

 the wealthiest and most intelligent farmers in the "West, and is by them regarded as a 
 sound exponent of their interests. There is no State in the Union whose farmers are 
 more rapidly advancing in agricultural progress than those of Michigan, and there is a con- 
 stant demand for the latest improvements in farm machinery and implements, and for 
 well-bred stock of every desci'iption. To those dealing in agricultural machinery, imple- 
 ments, nursery stock, thoroughbred stock, or anything useful to the farmer, stock-raiser, 
 orchardist or wool-grower, the Michigan Farmer offers them the best medium of com- 
 munication with the farmers of Michigan that can be used, and at a scale of prices that 
 are so low, when compared with other agi-icultural Journals, as to make it the cheapest 
 advertiser in the West. Make a trial of it and be convinced. Our rates are: —

 five times the price of the subscription to the best weekly paper published. All we 
 wish is a trial of our merits. We offer a princely premium for your judgment, 
 confident of the overshadowing merits of 
 
 THE FIFTH AVEIVUE JOURlVAi:,,

 IT IS A SUCCESSFUL 
 
 MAJVUFACTUBIIVG AlVD COMMERCIAIi CE^fTER, 
 
 Some of the wliolesale houses doing a business of a million dollars per year. Railroads fur- 
 nish it facilities for trade in every direction, and gravel roads command 
 the business of the country in a circle of twenty miles all 
 round, and at all seasons of the year. 
 
 THE DISPATCH 
 
 Is the only Daily Democratic Paper ]iublished in the Seventli Congressional District, and 
 in the County of Tippecanoe or the City of Lafayette. It is, therefore, the most advan- 
 tageous medium for reaching the people, as two other papers, of opposite politics, are 
 required to reach the other half. 
 
 The DISPATCH has a large and constantly increasing circulation throughout the 
 Seventh District, and while furnishing superior advantages as an ailvertising meilium,. 
 does it at tlie 
 
 VERV LOWEST RATES. 
 
 Propositions for business will be carefully considered and attended to by the proprietor,

 The Daily, being an af

 in the neighboring

 Trenton contains a population of about ;J0,00(); has seventeen daily trains to New 
 York and twenty-six to Philadelphia. Not only our merchants but private citizens as 
 well, make a large proportion of their purchases in those cities, and consequently there 
 is no point at which the merchants and manufacturers of New York and Philadelphia can 
 advertise with greater profit than at Trenton, nor no journal in which they can adver- 
 tise more advantageously than the STATE SENTINEL.

 The Portland Transcript,, 
 
 A LITERARY WEEKLY, ESTABLISHED IN 1836. 
 
 CIRCUIiATIOlV TVTEIVTY-OIVE THOUSAIVD, AlVD INCREASING. 
 
 The TRANSCRIPT circulates largely in every city and hamlet of Maine, the bulk of 
 its circulation bt-ing within the State. Several thousand copies, however, go to the other 
 New England States and to the British Provinces. The people of Maine, who go to all 
 the other States, also have the Tkansckipt follow them. It is a long-established family 
 paper, and its patrons comprise the leading citizens in every community in the State. 
 No other paper in the State is so thoroughly distributed, or reaches a better class of 
 readers. It is an eight-page paper, so arranged that no page is entirely given up to ad- 
 vertisements, the space for which is limited. 
 
 A large and beautiful Chronio, entitled "Among the Dasies," from a painting by 
 Reinhart, has been offered to all subscribers, and this is rapidly increasing the circulation 
 of the paper.

 Pre-payment required for all transient advertising. 
 
 THE AMERICAN RURAL, HOME 
 
 Is concededly a surEUiOR advertising medium for the following reasons : 
 
 I.— Its circulation, already large, and rapidly increasing, is among the best class of people 
 in the countiy. 
 
 2. — It admits only a limited number of advertisements, and these are divided up on three 
 pages, chiefly devoted to fresh reading matter. 
 
 3. — It advertises no quackery of any kind, and its live or six advertising columns are as care- 
 fully edited as are its Practical ami Literary Departments, and consequently free from humbug 
 am! impurity. 
 
 4. — (ireat pains are taken to put advertisements in good, I'cadable shape, and to so arrange 
 them that they shall present a fresh appearance weekly. 
 
 5. — The size of page is such as to render even the smallest advertisement distinguishable. 
 and each insertion, tliei-efoi'e. serves its purpose. 
 
 6. — Full of live, carefully-prepared matter, of interest to all readers, and printed on fine book 
 paper, in the very best style of typographical art, every copy is preserved and many times 
 re-read, and every insertion has the eflTect of repeated insertions. 
 
 It is believed that these are advantages otferetl by few, if any, other journals, and that they 
 .•should commend the AMERICAN RURAL HOME to the consideration of advertisers gen- 
 erally, especially as its rates are less than those of papers possessing no such advantages 
 whatever.

 The EXPRESS receives tlie dispatches of the Western Associated Press, and hence, it will 
 furnish its readers with the latest and freshest news from all parts of the world, and its facilities 
 for gathering local news are of the very best kind. Exchanging with almost every paper in the 
 State, and all the prinoijial papers in the country, the important news in all is copied daily. 
 
 Congressional repoi-ts will he full and accurate. Market reports will be of the same char- 
 acter, and everything that appertains to agriculture ; the croi)s and the great manufacturing and 
 railroad interests of this region shall receive a liberal share of space and attention. 
 
 A special feature of THE EXPRESS will be its general miscellany, which will be selected 
 with unusual care.

 The EXPRESS is honestly and earnestly Republican. It supports the regular nominees 
 of that party, and believes that the triumph of its principles are essential to the growth and

 THE BEST AWD CHEAPEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM IIV THE TI^ORIiD. 
 
 The Toledo Weekly Blade 
 
 (NASBY'S PAPER,) 
 Has ail actual bona fide paid Circulation of 130,0U0. 
 
 Read the following statement: 
 
 Maumee City. Ohio, Sept. 21st, 1872. 
 
 We, the unclersigned, Paper-makei's, Maumee City, Ohio, certify that our regular order for 
 printing paper for the TOLEDO WEEKLY BLADE, IS One Hundred and Thirty-Seven (137) 
 Bundles per week, or 960 sheets each— 131,.o20 sheets per week— and that we are furnishing 
 that amount weekly. CLAFLIN & CAMPBELL. 
 
 The following statement shows the elTeet of advertising in THE BLADE : 
 
 Office of the Manhattan Sewing-Machine Company, ) 
 Locke & Jones : 162 West Fourth Street, cor. Elm, Cincinnati, O., Sept 17. 1872. | 
 
 Gentlemen- We take pleasure in giving you our practical knowledge of your Weekly as an 
 advertising medium. 
 
 1. From July, 1871, to July, 1872. we have occupied space regularly in your columns. We 
 have, at our different offices, received from twenty to as high as two hundred letters per day. all 
 of which mentioned the BLADE specially as the paper in which they saw our advertisement. 
 
 2. During the last six months we have hcen opening up new territory in the South. East and 
 West, and wherever our Agents went, they found that the BLADE had already fought half the 
 battle. To illustrate — One of our Agents struck a little hamlet in Brown County, Ohio, with a 
 load of our Machines, and almost before he could turn round, had cash customers for every Ma- 
 chine. Upon our asking him, on his return to the office, what it meant those cash sales, some- 
 thing very singular in our business— his reply was, "Why, at first I thought the folks a little 
 cracked, but on conversing with them I found I deserved no credit for selling, as the TOLEDO 
 BLADE had done the business for me long before, and they were only waiting for me." 
 
 With these facts, we could not do otherwise than state, which we do cheerfully, that we 
 found the BLADE the best, and the most elTective paper through which to reach the masses 
 throughout the entire country. They write us, and a large proportion of them mean business, 
 something we do not find in all cases. 
 
 Our experience in advertising has not been small, and we have undoubtedly thrown away 
 much money, but from the BI,ADE we have received more than 100 cents on the dollar. 
 
 Yours, truly,

 TO ADVERTISERS. 
 
 THE OMAHA 
 
 Tribune and Republican 
 
 DAILiY AIVD ^VEEKIiY. 
 
 OFFICIAL ORGAIV. 
 
 The construction of the Union Pacific Ruilroad from Omaha to the Pacific Ocean has inaugu- 
 rated an extraordinary contest for the immense trade of tlie great Mineral and Agricultural 
 country lying between the Missouri River and the Pacific Ocean. Judicious advertising will 
 have a vast infiuence in determining the direction of it. We beg leave to present the following 
 reasons why it will be to the advantage of all classes of business men to advertise in the col- 
 umns of the OMAHA TRIBUNE AND REPUBLICAN: 
 
 I. It is now in tlie fifteenth year of its existence, the oldest established paper published in 
 the State of Nebraska, and in consideration of its standing and prominence as a first-class Me- 
 tropolitan newspaper for said State, it has been chosen as the Official Paper of tlie County 
 of Douglass, the Official Paper of the State of Nebraska and the Official Paper of the 
 United States for the publication of the laws and the official advertisements of the Wai', State, 
 Interior and Post-oftice Departments of the Federal Government. 
 
 II. It has a circulation in everj' county and every post-office in the State, and a large circuUi- 
 tion outside of the State. 
 
 III. Its circulation is confessedlj' larger than that of any other paper published in Nebraska. 
 
 IV. Intelligent advertisers will take into account the fact that the OMAHA TRIBUNE AND 
 REPUBLICAN is the State organ of the Republican party, which is largely in the majority in 
 this State. 
 
 V. It is published in the Commercial Metropolis of the State of Nebraska and of the North- 
 west — west of Chicago and north of St. Louis— the initial point of the great Union Pacific Rail- 
 road, and the eastern outlet of the vast westei-n trade. 
 
 According to the United States census of June, 1870. Omaha City has a population of 10,083. 
 
 This statement of facts will convince everybody of tlie value of the TRIBUNE AND REPUB- 
 LICAN as an advertising medium in this new field of operations in the Missouri Valley and the 
 Missouri district of the West, and we therefore respectfully solicit advertising patronage.

 COMPLIMENTARY : 
 
 The ReligioiLs Herald (Richmond, Va.) says: "From the New York Independent down 
 to the most obscure Pedobaptist journal in the land, flattering notices of the Bai'TIST 
 Union may be found in almost every issue. The secular press, too, never lets an oppor- 
 tunity go unimproved for saying a kind word in its behalf. The name of the Baptist 
 Union is emblazoned on the pages of almost every political and secular paper, from the 
 Now York Herald down to the short-lived cross-roads weekly. 
 
 " We may safely say that more extracts from the Baptist Union on denominational 
 issues are to be found in our Pedobaptist exchanges, than they publish from all the 
 Baptist papers in the world."

 THE DAIRYMEIV'S PAPER : 
 
 The Utica Weekly Herald. 
 
 ENLARGED AND IMPROVED. 
 
 The UTICA HERALD devotes especial attention to everything connected with the dairy 
 interest; to diseases of cattle and tlieir cure ; the manufacture of butter and cheese, and to all 
 improved processes and apparatus. The weekly edition, every Tuesday, contains the report of 
 the Little Falls market of the previous day. 
 
 The UTICA HERALD has made the dairy interest a specialty, and in its weekly edition 
 ■devotes to it more space and attention than any other paper in the country. At the same time, 
 the UTICA WEEKLY HERALD aims to be in all respects a flrst-class family paper. Its editorial 
 articles are accepted and recognized as fitly speaking the Union sentiment, the intelligent 
 ■convictions, and the thoughtful aspirations of the million of peojile whicli it represeiits. 
 
 The UTICA HERALD, in its weekly as well as its morning edition, is pre-eminently a 
 Tiewspaper. By thorough classiflcation and elaborate condensation it presents the gist of all the 
 news in the briefest space, and the person who reads no other journal, will not be ignorant of 
 the current of events, and the movement of men and principles. The correspondence, weekly

 Tlie Great American Religious and Secnlar Family IVe^vspaper 
 
 Having completed the first Half Century of its career under the most auspicious circumstances, 
 and the Observer being now in the vigor of its manhood, stronger and better than ever, we in* 
 vite one and ail to unite with us in a NEW DEPARTURE, on the same principles, with full ranks, 
 fresh vigor, flushed hopes, flying colors, and faith in the strength and truth of our work. Those 
 who know the Observer, are all right, and will stand by us ; but there are thousands in our land' 
 who do not know us, and to all such we extend the invitation, try us 1 Take the Observer into 
 your houses for a year, and judge for yourselves of its value. Those who have read it for years, 
 appreciate it more and more. Our subscribers are constantly expressing themselves thus : " I 
 cannot do iciihout it." " It is worth double its cost." " The best paper published." " I shall take it as long^ 
 as Hive," &c., &c— all which is very gratifying to the publishers, who are determined that, as in 
 the past so in the future, the Observer shall be in t\\e front rank. 
 
 What do we ofler? We olTer Two Complete Newspapers — the one Ueligious, the other Secular.

 The New York OBSERVER has stood confessedly at the head of the Religious Press for a 
 period of FIFTY YEARS. 
 
 It lias lived and flourished and increased steadily in strength, popularity and influence, in 
 the midst of the great changes that have occurred during all those years. Being the oldest, it is 
 also acknowledged to be THE BEST. 
 
 In its columns are found both the Religious and Secular Ncavs that is desired in any family, 
 while all that has the taint of error, or is likely to do harm, is sedulously shut out.

 The attention of merchants and others, who desire to sell their goods, is called to the advan- 
 tages presented by this paper as an advertising medium. The combined mail lists of the I>ail}- 
 and Weekly Age, in the States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Vir- 
 ginia, are larger than those of any other paper published in Philadelphia. It is taken by thou- 
 sands of persons who read no other city paper, and can be reached in no other way. 
 
 All cardsjare conspicuously inserted and distinctly classilied, while in the case of the 
 Weekly Age the space set apart for advertisements is strictly limited to two columns, and its 
 •entire contents are always thoroughly read. 
 
 The Rates of Advertising are reasonable, and such as are fully justified by a large and 
 widelj'-extended circulation. Every advertiser, therefore, who wishes to expend his money 
 Judiciously, should see that his place of business and the goods he has for sale arc published in 
 the Dally and Weekly Age.

 LANCASTER, PENNSYLVANIA. 
 
 These newspapers are the only Democratic journals published at Lancaster, Pa., a city 
 (Democratic in politics) of over 21,000 population, and the county seat of Lancaster County, 
 which is the largest, richest and most populous in the United States, excepting a few which have 
 very large cities within their boundaries. The county has a Democratic vote of over 9,00i). It is 
 eciually noted for its agriculture and manufactures; is full of minerals— iron ore, nickel, chrome, 
 &c., and has a rich limestone soil. 
 
 The City of Lancaster, situated on the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Reading and Lan- 
 caster Railroad, 68 miles from Philadelphia, 80 miles from Baltimore and 106 miles from New 
 York, does a large mercantile business. It is also a manufacturing center. It has within its 
 limits very large cotton mills, woolen mills, locomotive works, iron furnaces, tobacco manu- 
 factories, carriage factories, lager beer breweries, &c. 
 
 Knowing these facts, advertisers will be able to form an intelligent opinion as to whether it 
 will benefit them to advertise in the Daily or Weekly Intelligencer. The Daily circulates 
 chiefly in the City of Lancaster and in the towns and villages along the line of the railroads i 
 where it can be distributed by agents. The Weekly is circulated through the mails, and is 
 received by an entirely ditTerent set of subscribers. 
 
 The Intelligencer is one of the leading journals of Pennsylvania, and not only circulates 
 largely in Central Pennsylvania, but is sent into every State in the Union. 
 
 THE JOB OFFICE 
 
 Of the Intelligencer is prepared to do all kinds of printing neatly and promptly. Our rents 
 and labor being much lower than in the large cities, our pjices cannot be competed with.

 MORE THAN TEN YEARS AGO THE PROPRIETORS OF THE 
 
 Detroit Tribune 
 
 Foresaw that while their field for daily newspaper circulation was circumscribed, it would 
 
 he possible to found a 
 
 «KEAT n'EEKIiY A'EWSPAPEB, 
 
 Which should in time possess a national reputation, and become of itself the foundation 
 or an extensive business. 
 
 Keeping this aim steadily in view, they have, from year to year, in every possible 
 way, added to the strength and popularity of the 
 
 WEEKLY TBIBTIVE, 
 
 By employing for its columns the best of talent in the West, and sparing neither labor 
 nor expense to make each successive volume an improvement on the last. 
 
 Steadily has the circulation increased from a few thousand in 1862, to very near 
 30,000 in 187-2, with a steady weekly increase. 
 
 This circulation has been built up, not on a single specialtj-, nor bj' the lavish use 
 of premiums, but purely on the merits of the paper as a readable and reliable Family 
 Journal. It is doubtful if there is another paper west of the Alleghanies upon which 
 the same care ^d labor is expended.

 for its great popularity and wide circulation. On the 1st of January, 1872, tlie Register was

 Savannah Morning News, 
 
 DAILY, TRI-^VEEKLY AIVD WEEKLY. 
 
 THIS PAPER IS THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM OFFERED IN ITS SECTION 
 
 TO ADVERTISERS, 
 
 Having a verj' extensive subscription list in Eastern, Soutliern anil Southwestern Georgia, and 
 througliout Florida, besides a general circulation throughout the other Soutliern States. 
 
 It is the recognized Local and Commercial IVe^vspaper, and is the Official Organ of 
 
 the City of Savannah. 
 
 Savannah has nia<le rapid strides in commercial advancement during the past four years, 
 and is now generally regarded as the most prosperous city of the South. The immense receipts 
 of cotton during the past two years show that she is destined to be tlie lirst cotton port of the 
 Southern Slates; already her lines of railroads extend to Mississippi, monopolizing tlie entire 
 carrying trade of the counties through wliich they pass, antl bringing the staple to her wharves. 
 
 Besidcfi this. Savannah is the marlcet of supplies for a large portion of Georgia and Florida, 
 and the inercliants and planters depend entirely on the local press for information in regard to 
 prices, crop prospects ami general news.

 Savannah Morning News. 
 
 The Savannah JIokning News is now in the Twenty-first Year of its existence, and is 
 acknowledged by the Press as one of the Leading Dailies of the South. 
 
 The current local news of Georgia and Florida is made a specialty; the commercial depart- 
 .nient is full and reliable; and the general makeup of the paper is fresh, sparkling and piquant. 
 More reailing matter is given in each issue than is to be found in any other daily journal south 
 of Louisville or east of New Orleans. 
 
 The Morning News has a circulation equal to that of any newspaper printed in Georgia, and 
 double that of any other Savannah journal; thus affording one of the best advertising mediums 
 in the country. 
 
 The Weekly News. 
 
 The Weeklv News is a large, neatly printed, carefully edited journal, each issue containing 
 an average of Thirty Columns of Reading Matter, and is made up with great care and dis- 
 crimination, and contains the cream of the Daily Edition of the IMohning News. Its extremely 
 low price, its careftd make-up, and the large and varied amount of reading matter which it 
 contains, commend it to all who desire a first-class family newspaper. 
 
 The Tri-Weekly Morning News. 
 
 The Tri-Weekly Morning News presents all the best features of the Daily and M'eckly 
 editions, and is made up with an eye to the wants of the farming community of Middle, Southern 
 and Southwestern Georgia. It contains all the Latest Commercial and Telegraphic Intel- 
 ligence up to the hour of going to press; and the very large circulation to which it has attained 
 convinces us that it fills a high place in public estimation. 
 
 Savannah News.— This journal comes to us considerably enlarged over Its former size. One 
 column has been added to each page. This increase in size was demanded by the increased 
 advertising patronage of the Nkw.s, and is a compliment to its numerous subscribers, which will 
 no doubt, be justly appreciateil. We are pleased to notice this indication of prosijcrity on the 
 part of our cotemporary. The News is one of our very best exchanges, and we would like to see 
 it in the hands of every ¥\(n-'n\\\iu.— Tallahassee Floridian.

 The Caucasian. 
 
 LEXINGTON, MISSOURI. 
 
 Published by Donaii & Allen, at $2 50 per Aiiuuiii. 
 
 Edited by COL. P. DONAN and ALF. S. KIEROLF. 
 
 The Lexington CAUCASIAN lias tlie largest local circulation in Lafayette County— one ol 
 the richest blue-grass regions in the world— and a subscription list which extends over all the 
 States and Territories, and constantly increasing. On account of its peculiar reputation (or 
 notoriety) everything in it is closely read, and we assert that no better advertising medium can 
 be found in the Union. Single copies of the CAUCASIAN have been read and re-read, mailed 
 and re-mailed, till they have been absolutely worn into pulp. One copy went through no less 
 than SEVEN post offices, having been read each time and sent on to other readers, till there was 
 scarcely anything left of it. To appreciate this fact, it is but necessary to have seen any copy 
 during the last campaign. Its audacity has had no parallel in America. 
 
 The CAUCASIAN is a nine-column weekly, publishing all the news of the day, and editorials 
 which have been pronounced the boldest ever put into tjpe. This paper has been commented 
 upon by the whole press of America, including all the leading Eastern journals. It has fur- 
 nished Nast with numberless themes, and it has been noticed by the Canada press and the Lou- 
 don Times and Standard. There is no question as to its superior facility for convej'ing adver- 
 tisers' information to the public everywhere. 
 
 Lexington has a population of about 6,000, and several large business houses, but the CAU- 
 CASIAN brings more money into the county than any other concern. 
 
 Terms reasonable.

 Bfancliester, IVe^v Hampshire, is the flfty-flfth city in population in the United States, ac- 
 cording to last census— larger tlian any other two cities in New Hampshire. It is flfty-two miles 
 from Boston, anil is devoted to Manufacturing. It makes over one hundred miles of cloth, cot- 
 tons and woolen?, ten thousand pairs of hose, and ten thousand meal bags each day, thirteen 
 locomotives a month, steam flre engines, and the various products of wood, copper, iron and 
 steel in large numbers. Its pay-roll for labor alone is over one quarter of a million dol- 
 lars a month. To be more exact, the several manufacturing establishments employ 9,800 per- 
 sons, and the monthly pay-roll is $29.5,400. That money is nearly all spent in the city, making it 
 one of the liveliest places in the East.

 The MIRROR AND FARMER is an eight-page paper of forty-eight columns, published eveiy 
 Saturday, and is the only agricultural paper in the State. It is, in fact, two papers in one, a 
 Farming paper and News paper, employing over one hundred correspondents. 
 
 It has a lai'ger circulation than any other secular paper north of Boston, in New England. It 
 reaches, by Clubs of from ten to three hundred, all the towns, villages and cities of the State, 
 and circulates largely in Vermont, considerably in Maine, and a little in all the other States. 
 
 It is a perfect medium for advertising in New Hampshire, and its price for advertising is very 
 low, being less than a cent a line for every thousand circulation.

 Crofutt's Western World, published in New York, by George A. Crofutt, whose prospectus ap- 
 peared in our columns a few weeks since, to which we called attention, advising our readers to 
 send for a copy, says : 
 
 "Thanks, friend Clarke. Your readers have sent for them, to the number of nearly a thou- 
 sand; and I am only doing your paper justice when I say the little advertisement that appeared 
 in its columns ditl me more good than the same one in sixteen other newspapers, claiming a 
 circulation of over 1,200,000 copies combined— more good, 1 say, than all the rest together. When 
 I advertise the MIRROR will be my first choice."

 The Burlington Hawk-Eye 
 
 THE LEADING PAPER 
 
 THE OliOEST PAPER IRT THE STATE OF IOWA. 
 
 Burlington is one of tlie most important railroad centers in the West. Seven lines of com- 
 pleted railway make it their terminal point, while several other lines are in process of construc- 
 tion. These facilities, in aiUlition to tuat afforded by the great Mississippi Hiver, open to navi- 
 gation through the greater part of the year, have" attracted the attention of capitalists and 
 business men. Within a few years the city has doublert its population and quadrupled its 
 material wealth. Many wholesale houses, in all branches of business, and numerous manufac- 
 turing establishments, are located here, and all doing a prosperous business. With her arms 
 of iron reaching out in every direction to control the wealth ot the finest antl mightiest agricul- 
 tural region in the world, and her numerous railways and the greatest natural highway on the 
 continent at her doors to convey her productions to distant markets, Burlington may well look 
 n confidence to a great future. 
 
 Her natural organ is the The Haw^k-Eye. It was started when the city was yet in her in 
 fancy. It has grown with her growth and strengthened with her strength. The Daily Hawk-Eye 
 circulates in the city and towns along her system of railroads. The Semi-Weekly Ha>vk-Eye 
 principally in Des Moines and adjoining counties. The Weekly Hawk-Eye throughout Iowa, 
 Northern Missouri, Western Illinois and Nebraska and Kansas.
