TINE approach of Congress calls out the annual
IL Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in OF a
new Administration consequent broaching OF
policy touching the internal concerns OF the
countryside new and most important issues arising
from the late vast accession 10 the public domain,
and the great national objects associated with it,
the impending difficulty in our relations with
France, and the possible complication OF our affairs
with the troubles Of Europe,-conspire TO create
great expectation TO the proceedings OF the next
Congress. The approaching session Will probably
continue till late in the summer OF 1900. The de-
bates, from the agitation OF so many questions OF
vital interest the Republic, will draw forth all the
talent of the National Legislature. To bring It's
deliberations home to the people, on each succeed
ing day, while maturing, Is, In effect,
to bring the whole nation into council, The DIS
cusson, spreading from the Capitol to the remotest
parts OF the Union, forms public opinion which
reacts upon Congress and controls lbs decisions
To become useful instrument however hum
BILE, To assist the working OF the admirable ma
chinery of our popular institutions s the ambition
of the conductor of the GLOBE. Extraordinary
preparations have therefore been made to meet the
increasing demands of our rapidly improving and
growing country for Congressional intelligence.
The GLOBE Press has already enlisted the ablest
Reporters yet known 10 Congress; Its materials
and machinery of the best sort; and the exclu-
sive devotion OF the individual who Tor so many
years has made il his study TO embody and publish
the labors OF Congress gives reason TO hope that an
advance will be made in the accomplishment OF this
undertaking commensurate with its increased i'm
portance. But the accumulation of expense con-
sequent the additional number OF Reporters
required-the extra charges incurred in printing at
night the debates of the preceding day-the vast
addition made to the mass published, by the pro-
tracted sessions and the fuller reports given,will
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronise it as to become purchaser
of such portion of the daily sheets issued as shall
contribute TO make the reports that fill them. The
has made for the next Session in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price,
| as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting,
and give them circulation Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher 10 bear the charge of reporting, and
it will give impulse TO the circulation of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
in the Union (the expense of preparation consid-
ered,) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
| system permanent.
