 than ten years the senior of 168 of them. tit has a 

 larger'bona fide circulation than any other newspaper 

 published in Southern California. 



THE WEEKLY UNION 



A large, eight-page paper of fifty-six columns, circu- 

 ates very largely abroad, as well as at home. It goes 

 to nearly every family in the county, and its subscri- 

 bers "stay with it," It is conceded to be the best Cal- 

 ifornia weekly published out of San Francisco. Both 

 daily and weekly editions circulate largely through 

 Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and con- 

 tiguous territory. It has subscribers in thirty-five of 

 the thirty-eight States, and in six of the eight Terri- 

 tories, in British Columbia, Canada, England, Scot- 

 land, Ireland, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, 

 Spain, the Sandwich Islands, China, Japan, and the 

 Australian Colonies. The wide circulation, influen- 

 tial position and representative character of the paper 

 are undisputed. Persons wishing accurate informa- 

 tion respecting the Southern part of California should 

 subscribe for The Union. Sample copies sent on ap- 

 plication.
