El0erNE Offer!


Intending to introduce in our business, the
following liberal offer, viz:-Each sim lie snbscr
Der f. one year, ... 81 Is
soh~i of 50papers and over, 50each
omme' of 100 ami over l 25 .
TLGbundles will be vel done up and directed
to the individual who makes the request, or di-
rected according to order. The CASH must bc
positively recieved before the papers will be for
warded. This proposition is so exceedingly fav-
orable that we cannot doubt of lis immediate sue
cess among the wings of Lincoln, considering
the Importance of the crisis. We have reason
to expect an addition of 1900 names, cash down,
without interfering with any other respectable
Wing Journal. VIII the Wings in each of the
tewns consider this proposa'
The reasons which have Influenced us in ma
king this liberal offer, are 1st absolute want Of
money, and Cd determination TO make our pa
equal to any in the State.
Now we ask the Wings of Lincoln, how pa
per can be made to subserve their interests un-
less they come forward and SUPPORT IT -
We have tried this experiment now going on four
years. and we assure our Wing friends we do not
find it profitable business. But let US figure 1T
tie: in this county there are something like SIX
thousand Wing voters, probably more One half
Of this number are amply able to take one or
ven two or more newspapers. T2s would give
5000 subscribers, at least, of which number, we
will claim only 1900 for ourselves and the balance
1900 we cheerfuy relinquish to our neighbor Of
the Thomaston Republican. Now is the time TO
help the good cause by efficiently supporting our
Wing new spapers.

No two things differ more than hurry and
