According to published records The Gateway’s com
bined circulation is the largest in Alaska this side of
Juneau. The local circulation covers about 50 per cent
of the population; this is far beyond the average per
population as compiled by The American Press Asso
ciation. Local estimates from an authentic source are
to the effect five times more Gateways go Westward
than all other papers COMBINED.
The circulation has more than trippled in five years.
Last year the Chicago Tribune published an article
naming Seward, Alaska as the smallest town in the Unit
ed States publishing a daily paper.
All of which tells quite a story, between the lines.
A Lincoln girl sued a boy friend who squeezed her
so hard as to break three ribs. Those Nebraska lads pet
—and how.
If there is an over-production of farm products why
continue to erect gigantic dams for the purpose of irri
gating more land?
Agitation against printing crime news continues.
<But crime ceased to be news long ago.
