THE GLOBEt
A Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary
Newspaper.


TINE approach of Congress calls out the annual
il Prospectus of the GLoDE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming IN OF u
new Administraton-the consequent broaching OF
"A new policy touching the internal concerns OF the
countryside new and most important issues arising
from the late vast accession to 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 to the Republic will draw forth all the
talent OF the National Legislature. To BRING Its
deliberations home to the people, on each succeed
ing day, while maturing, is in effect,
to bring the whole nation into council. The dis
custom spreading from the Capitol to the remoest
parts OF the Union, forms public opinion which
reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions.
To become useful instrument however hum
BILE, To assist the working of the admirable ma
chinery OF our popular institutions Is 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 LOBE Press has already enlisted the ablest
Reporters yet known to Congress; its materials
and machinery are of the best sort; and the excu-
slve devotion OF the individual who for so many
years has made it his study TO embody and publish
the abors 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 on the additional number OF Reporters
requiredthe 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,wil
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall 80 far patronise il as to become purchaser
OF such portion Of the daily sheets issued a. shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them. The
undersigned has ventured the preparation he
has made for the next Session i'll the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price,
will, III part, defray the expense of reporting,
and give them circulation Congressional docu-
mcnts in their several districts This will enable
the publisher to bear the charge of reporting and
1t will give an 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.
