Philadelphia has a race "ptlucatlonnl

and that (he larser number of these

TALKS BY THE
PUBLISHER
City Advertising; The L.tw And
The Tribune's Rate C.udio.
AS "the piihllsher" wae out of the
elty the hitter pmt of last w -ei,
his customary Kntiirilay "tulu'
did not i!p:rtir. and tliiiiiestliin nl the
city ndveilhlnR, which wns uwaided
n day or two pievlous. wns deferied.
The law In repanl lo the publleatlon
of city .ittvPtllsliiR Is veiy specific
thill Is, It would be If the pnpeis wete
fiil. "built" m fonfnrm with the law.
It stipulates that the contiMclR are "to
In' let ., ihe lowest blibler, nRiit
mciisiiie, per line. ' There Is not n
paper In Scrantou Hint u-"'S iiRiite
type, nud yet IiUIh wete submitted on
Ibis basis and contracts awarded.
Can the law compel Pi'psp pap'rs to
l-.SP HKilte type.' If noi. what type
tire they tit llheriy to use'.' There .ire
I'oiiituen lines ol iiRiite t.vpi In an
Inch, and these bids wen- r.unnilltetl
with the undeislaiitlliiR that 111- papers
publishing the tulvniilfliii- would re
nd ve pay for font teen lines for every
huh occupied by elty adverlisiiiR.
The Ilepnhllcan and Tlni'-s use non
piucll for their IcriiI atlvertlslnR,
twelve lines of which oiiupy nn Inch,
mid the Truth Is usiiiR million type,
ten lines to the Inch. Do the city uu
thnrltles intend to pay for tourteon
lines whet, only ten antl twelve lines
appear'.' In plaoiiiR a pile" on ills
play nilvotisln;,' It Is customary to
cHllinali- fouiteen lines to the Inch,
but lesal I'dvertlsliiR Is clitliely differ
ent, It belmr -humeri for by the count
line. Probably the lemnetl lawyer
who dicw up this statute was familiar
with the papois of sonic city which
tiled aRiite type In IcriiI adverlisiiiR,
but that city was not Sciaiilon. There
is no provision In ihe law for the size
uf type In which the atlvert'slns Is to
lie set. 'file law does not even say
Ihe city's advert tsllift shall be pub
lish! d In Ihe type nitlinarily used for
IcriiI ndvettisiiiR. If the authorities
cannot -nimpel the use of riRate, U
there anythii'R to pi event the use of
plea, which has only sl lines to the
li-rhV
The Tribune knew that Us bid was
incRUlar, acconlltiR to the icadir.p of
the law, bat it was no more IrrcRtilar
(him Hie other bills submitted, when
the fi t-t Is (ousltleied that the papcis
Mihnilttim those bids would be uirible
to cany out the piovlsions stiletly In
accuidance wllli tb" u-adliiR of that
law. The Trihuti'-'s bid was s;lilt tly
mi honest inc. ll has taken the stand
of tieatiiif,- eveiy aiHerlisef exactly1
the same as every olher advertiser,
uhiltiei-a merclinnl, a corporation or
the Sty of Sciainon In siibmltUnR a
bid for the city advertising, a copy of
Us i ate cinri was sent lo Hie author
ities with Ihe followhiR p.irasraph un
tlerscoied: "Lesal advertisliiR, in cents
per llni. lirsl Insertion; .. cents each
Mtbseiiiicii' insertion." The 'fribiine
prints it.' I'-Ral ndwrtWiiR in nonpareil
type .tv.ilve lines to th men. ami me
r hm fre would be made upon the basis
of iwplve lints and nof upon fourteen,
when only twelve woi. used.
AliJIher feature of ibis advert Islns

will leeeive. Y" an- illfoiuird that
some of the nil irlNem nts. will, be In
serted linee eon-eeuliv- times and
others four times. The Ttihune's bid
upon n basis of linee Insertions, calls
for an .ivernRe of Mi cents per Ineh.
What the other pa pels are to receive
omuiot be determined until their sworn
