NEWSPAPER CIRCULATIONS.
As this Directory is reprinted every three months there
exists no valid reason why the circulation of any newspaper
should continue to be misrepresented, unless it be an unwilling-
ness on the part of the publisher of such newspaper to furnish
the editor of the Directory with facts upon which his report
may be based.
In all cases where the circulation figures are preceded by the
word " estimated" they represent the opinion of the editor of
the Directory. Where the word " estimated " does not appear
the figures are the statement of the publisher of the newspaper,
and are not doubted by the editor of the Directory. Circula-
tions marked with the dagger (f) are supported by affidavits on
file at the Directory ofiice, and are believed by the editor of
the Directory to be correct. Circulations marked with the
asterisk (*) are claimed by the publishers of the newspapers to
be too small, but said publishers do not substantiate the claims
which they set forth.
If the publisher of a newspaper, who, finding himself
wronged by the estimated circulation attributed to his journal
by this Directory, will, upon the very day that his attention is
called to this paragraph, begin a record of the number of
copies actually printed of each issue of his paper, and furnish
the same to the editor of this Directory, monthly or quar-
terly, accompanied by an offer to verify the statements fur-
nished, the same will be received, considered, and acted upon.
ADDRESS COMMUNICATIONS TO
EDITOR OF AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY,
No. 10 SPRUCE ST. (PRINTING HOUSE SQUARE), NEW YORK.
PREFACE.
The Tenth annual edition of the American Newspaper
Directory is presented to the public in January, 1878 (instead
of delaying the issue until May, as in the case of its predecess-
ors), and inaugurates a new era in the existence of the pub-
lication; which will henceforth appear four times a year. It
will be subject to daily revision, and errors which are unavoid-
able in a work of this character can be corrected with a prompt-
ness not possible in an annual publication.
The requirement for an increased purchasing value for
money has been met by attention to cheapness without render-
ing the book less trustworthy. Ordinary instead of superfine
paper is used. Expensive covers are superseded. Smaller type
is adopted, requiring fewer pages, and for the former demand
of five dollars per volume the popular price of fifty cents is sub-
stituted.
The confidence reposed in former editions will be merited
by those which are to follow, and publishers of newspapers, adver-
tisers and the general public are besought to lend their efficient
aid to the editor by calling his attention to such shortcomings
in the work as come under their personal observation.
This edition appears without advertisements, but those
which are to follow will not dispense with so important a
source of income.

EXPLANATIONS.
The population is from census of 1870, or recent estimate
of resident postmasters or publishers — the latter case indicated
by a dagger — c. h. stands for court house, county seat — m. for
miles — pop. for population — r. for river, and Rd. for railroad.
The circulation has been omitted in cases where a descrip-
tion of the publications did not appear in the last edition of the
Directory.
Where no advertisements are taken for a publication, the
matter of circulation, being unimportant, has been omitted, and
the fact stated thus : " Does not insert advertisements."
In some instances the statements of publishers have been
questioned, and in such cases, the affidavits have been called for,
and when furnished the figures are marked with a dagger (f),
which indicates that the affidavit is on file in this office. The
star (*) against estimated circulations, indicates that a larger
issue was claimed and a willingness to furnish an affidavit in
proof of the correctness thereof expressed by the publisher, but
none was furnished in response to the application therefor.
Where publications are bought and circulated by persons
and firms that advertise therein by means of descriptive articles
in the reading columns, or devoted to the (almost) exclusive
advertising of any particular person or firm, or to the adver-
tising of any certain idea, or established solely as advertising
schemes, embracing a class with circulations almost entirely
gratuitous, they are termed " advertising sheets," and no circu-
lation given.
ft Means that the Editor of the Directory at the time of
going to press had no certain evidence that the paper so marked
had suspended publication, but he was unable to secure any late
issue, therefore no particulars are given.
Where italic matter follows the description of a publica-
tion, it is by order of the publisher, and is paid for as an adver-
tisement.
The publishers of the Directory assume no responsibility
for any statements made in italic type, every publisher of a
newspaper being allowed to print in that manner anything for
which he is willing to pay the price demanded, viz. : ten cents a
word.

thrifty people of its section, who have tastes
to gratify and the means to buy ivhat they
want; tt undoid)tedly prints, more papers
every day than any other Cincinnati paper,
and its carrier system embraces Indianapolis,
OHIO.
Columbus, Dayton, Springfield, Lexington,
and all the leading towns within a circuit of
one hundred miles; the " Weekly " edition of
the " Gazette" is proven to be the largest in
Cincinnati ; the unfailing and absolute test of
the circulation of every weekly newspaper,
outside the county of publication, is furnished
by the returns made to the Post Office Depart-
ment, under the present postal law; of the
Cincinnati papers, for the fiscal year ending
June 30th, 1877, the " Gazette " paid $4,650.43 for
232,524 pou nds, the " Enquirer " paid $3,970.64
for 198,532 pounds, the " Times" pa id $3,098.16
for 154,908 jjounds, and the "Commercial"
paid $1,812.94 for 90,547 pounds: to be exact,
the "Commercial" and "Enquirer" each
weigh five per cent, more and the "Times"
five per cent, less than the " Gazette" ; these
figures embrace the whole amount paid by
the 2^o,pers named for postage from June
30th, 1876, to June 30th, 1877, and cover the
entire weekly edition of each; in addition to
the Weekly ? each paper sends out apart of its
exchange list, and to scattering subscribers by
mail, the number being about equal from each
office; neither uses any other means of circula-
tion for its Weekly either to clubs or single
subscribers; the proof is therefore conclusive
that the " Gazette " has the largest weekly cir-
culation of any Cincinnati paper; all state-
ments to the contrary are made solely to
deceive advertisers, who will notice the entire
absence of any proof in all such statements,
should any such be made : the " Gazette" has
never thought it expedient to publish flattering
letters of endorsement from advertisers ; it has
them by the score— it could get them by the hun-
dreds ; they aresimply cheap and faded means
employed by p>apers to prop their failing for-
tunes ; it rather relies upon the unerring test
of the sworn returns to the Post Ofiice Depart-
ment — made by the Government Officials,
which give it over twenty-five per cent, more
circulation than any other Cincinnati paper ;
all the statements in Christendom cannot dis-
prove this one simple fact. The Eastern office
of the " Gazette " is No. 37 Tribune Building,
New York; and all reputable advertising
agents are its representatives.

The object of the American Newspaper Directory is not very different from that of
the well-known mercantile agencies which exist in all our leading cities. The latter keep
their subscribers informed of the character, habits, reputation, business ability, and finan-
cial strength of the persons with whom they are likely to have business transactions,
enabling them thereby to regulate those transactions as to secure probably profitable deal-
ings, or to avoid such as will be likely to result in ultimate annoyance or loss.
The Directory conveys the best obtainable information concerning the character and
value of newspapers. Its patrons are men who expend money in advertising (a large and
important class), and it is from them that the publishers of the Directory, in their capacity
of Advertising Agents, derive their profit and support.
As the most important portion of the information supplied by a mercantile agency con-
sists of a report of the financial strength of the person about whom information is asked,
so is the circulation of a newspaper generally considered the point upon which informa-
tion will be of most value to the advertiser.
The greatest possible care is taken tc make the Directory reports correct. Every pub-
lisher is applied to systematically. All information is taken in a form which excludes any
but definite statements ; while every effort is made to protect honest publishers against
such as would resort to lying or perjured reports to gain an unfair advantage.
COMMENDATIONS.
From Weeks & Potter, TVholesale Druggists, 360 Washington Street.
Boston, May 7, 1877.
It is to the judicious advertiser what the dispensary is to the careful druggist— an
authority without which it would be impossible to avoid serious mistakes. I anticipate
the day when every newspaper worthy of advertising patronage will truthfully state its
circulation, either in the Directory or at the head of its columns ; but wherever stated, it
will be due, in nearly every case, to the original and persistent efforts of Messrs. Geo. P.
Rowell & Co. ; and as character and circulation determine the value of a medium, adver
tisers should not forget this important service you have rendered them.
Respectfully, Geo. R. White.
University op Virginia, May 5, 1877.
Gentlemen :— The annual production of such a Directory bespeaks an enterprise and a
vigor of administration peculiarly your own. One knows not whether more to admire at
the intelligent perception which realizes the utility to yourselves of such a publication, or
the vast business which makes it possible. The editor, ihe printer, and the binder, have
combined in performing each his part with singular zeal and success, showing that if you
choose to be a publisher you might be as peerless as in the vocation you have adopted, and,
indeed, may be fairly said to have invented. Your friend and servant, John B. Minor.
Rondout, N. Y., May 8, 1877.
I have carefully examined its contents, and I would say, not to flatter, but simply as a
matter of fact, that you have made valuable improvement in the way of giving informa-
tion, especially in regard to location and population of the leading towns and cities ; while
the type, paper, and binding, in short, everything pertaining to the book, rings of good,
honest material, reflecting that tone and character upon its authors, which their established
and well-earned reputation would lead one to expect of them. Dr. D. Kennedy.
From S. S. Scranton & Co., Book Publishers, No. 281 Asylum Street.
Hartford, Conn., May 8, 1877.
In the quality of the materials, its beautiful typography, and the entire make-up and
arrangement of the work, we regard it as a model worthy of imitation and typical of the
enterprise which characterizes your house. We have made frequent and valuable use of
former editions of your Directory, and find the present one full of information of practical
benefit to us in our business.
Office of I. S. Johnson & Co., Proprietors of Johnson's Anodyne Liniment.
Bangor, Maine, May 7, 1877.
We bear witness to the great value and importance of the work to all people who have
business with or want to know anything about newspapers. We notice many important
improvements in this book over those previously issued by you, and believe that it is about
as near perfect as such a work can be made. Your friends, I. S. Johnson & Co.
Pittsburgh, May 8, 1877.
Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co., New York :
Gentlemen— We are in receipt of your valuable Newspaper Directory for 1877, and must
say in the manner of compiling we look upon this edition the best you have issued, and an
indispensable work for all but local advertisers. Most truly yours, Hostetter & Smith.
From James R. Hill & Co., Sole Proprietors and only Manufacturers of the Genuine
Concord Harness.*
Concord, N. H., May 5, 1877.
It will be of great service.
From Seth W. Fowle <£• Sons, Proprietors of Dr. Wistar's Balsatn of Wild Cherry, Peruvian
Syrup, &c.
We have subscribed for the work from its first issue, and we cannot get along without
it. We consider it the most complete work of the kind published, and the descriptions of
cities and towns in the present volume add much to its value.
AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY. 383
From the Mercantile Agency, Dun, Barlow & Co., 335 Broadway.
New York, May 3, 1877.
Messrs Geo. P. Rowell & Co., New York City :
Dear Sirs,— It is a most creditable book, and one which we prize highly. You are certain
of any business we have.
Jersey City, N. J., May 4, 1877.
Although we do our advertising through you, there is scarcely a day that we do not
want to refer to it in a business transaction. O. P. Brown.
New York, May 4, 1877.
It cannot fail to render valuable service in its repletion of general, as well as journal-
istic information. F. H. Amidon's Son, 220 Fifth Avenue.
New York, May 4, 1877.
The book is very beautifully gotten up, and is worthy of space in any library.
Hayden, Gere & Co., 84 Beekman Street.
From Hegemen <& Co., Chemists and Druggists, Office No. 203 Broadway.
New York, May 4, 1877.
We shall always be pleased to send our business to your house.
Philadelphia, May 5, 1877.
A very complete and valuable work for advertisers.
National Publishing Company, No. 19 North Seventh Street.
New York, May 4, 1877.
We find the book invaluable. Yours respectfully, Dundas Dick.
Buffalo, N. Y., May 7, 1877.
Invaluable. R. V. Pierce.
Claverack College and Hudson RrvER Institute, Claverack, N. Y., May 10, 1877.
We value it very highly. We have looked about a good deal among advertising agencies,
and feel satisfied that we are best served by youi firm. It is about 15 years, we think, since
we made our first order (you know), and it is our judgment that we have ordered every

TO PUBLISHERS OF NEWSPAPERS.
Free Matter.
The name of a periodical, day of issue, politics or general
character, form, size, subscription price per year, year of estab-
lishment, editors' and publishers' names, and its circulation, are
all inserted in the American Newspaper Directory without
charge.
Italic Matter.
Additional matter, following the above, and distinguished
from it by being set in italic type, is paid for by the publisher
of the newspaper at ten cents a word. An order for the inser-
tion of one or two words is as readily received as one for fifty
or one hundred. The price named pays for insertion in but one
edition. All italic matter is received on the understanding that
it may be continued in subsequent editions, "till forbid," the
publishers of the Directory having the option to draw at sight
for payment, or to charge to account as cash.
Newspaper Buildings.
Small engravings of newspaper buildings, not exceeding
one inch in length or breadth, will be inserted for five dollars a
year, subject to continuance as set forth above. They can be
ordered of Crosscup & West, Wood Engravers, 702 Chestnut
St., Philadelphia, their price being from four to eight dollars,
according to the amount of labor required.
Full Page Advertisements.
Full page advertisements for prominent journals, to be
interleaved in the body of the book, always between the pages
of the catalogue for the State where the paper belongs, will be
inserted in forthcoming editions at prices to be specially agreed
upon. Address communications to
EDITOR OF AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY,
No. 10 Spruce St. (Printing House Square),
New York.
NEWSPAPER CIRCULATIONS.
As this Directory is reprinted every three months there
exists no valid reason why the circulation of any newspaper
should continue to be misrepresented, unless it be an unwilling-
ness on the part of the publisher of such newspaper to furnish
the editor of the DlRECTOay with facts upon which his report
may be based. *
In all cases where the circulation figures are preceded by the
word "estimated1- they represent the opinion of the editor of
the Directory. Whcrelthe word " estimated " does not appear
the figures are the statement of the publisher of the newspaper,
and are not doubted by the editor of the Directory. Circula-
tions marked with the dagger (f) are supported by affidavits on
file at the Directory ojffice, and are believed by the editor of
the Directory to be correct. Circulations marked with the
asterisk (*) are claimed by the publishers of the newspapers to
be too small, but said publishers do not substantiate the claims
which they set forth.
If the publisher of a newspaper, who, finding himself
wronged by the estimated circulation attributed to his journal
by this Directory, will, upon the very day that his attention is
called to this paragraph, begin a record of the number of
copies actually printed of each issue of his paper, and furnish
the same to the editor of this Directory, monthly or quar-
terly, accompanied by an offer to verify the statements fur-
nished, the same will be received, considered, and acted upon.
