THE circulation of the Mail is> nearly 600 copies .each issue. It is the only paper supported extensively by Patea settlers. When Patea Advertisers settle their bills, ■let-them take the, Mail, as a .standard of Value,''and pay according to the number of genuine subscribers to each paper. Thus, if the,. Mail charges 3s. an inch for advertising, among 600 subscribers, and another paper 'charges 35.. an inch for advertising among less than 100 subscribers, let the Advertisers insist on paying according,to value received. At that rate the amount due for the lesser circulation would be about 6ch an inch, as compared with 3s. for the Mail. Why should Advertisers pay on airy other prih'ciple than that of proportionate'value received? Why should public bodies spend rates in advertising oh any cither principle than that of proportionate value, received ? Let the public see to (his. , . , , ; • Subscribers’ List open to ‘ inspection at the Mail office; ■ ■ ■
