THE TRIBUNE FUND FOR KANSAS.

To The Edifo, Of The NJ Y. Tribune
SIR: In accordance with the proposal Of your
spondent JASPER" for creating The Tribune Fund
"tor the Reli9 of Kansas by each of your readers
contributing one dollar, if able, send here
with three dollars from myself aud two Others. The
plan Of "Jasper is the best that has been offered for
procuring the means to achieve the glorious object of
Freedom for Kansas; and if each Of your readers will
contribute his dollar, our brethren there who for
sakes have become the victims Of persecution and
femme will be succored, reinforced and maintained
till Liberty is won.
Let every TRIBUNE reader at once inco.e to you his
dollar and counsel his friends to do Likewise. Let him
lot think his single dollar unimportant expect an
other to save him the trouble Of remttiDg it. Let him
do bis own contributing Ars as he does his own vot-
ing and then exert himself to induce his friends and
neighbors to initiate his patriotic example. Let him
reflect that his dollar, thus given now, may do as
great service as bis vote for Fremont next November
and let him rejoice that this Opportunity is offered him
to aid in sveitDg from Kansas the impending curse.
Let him know that you now have NO hundred and
sixty thousand subscribers, and probably one million
and half of hsbual readers like himself, who wish
to Kansas made free; and let him reflect that if
each of these contributes his dollar will be free

To the work, then! To the great work Of rescuing
Kansas from the lash Of the slave whip and bay Of the
bloodhound! Fellow.readets Of The TRIBUNE, every
man Of you, act, and act promptly! First send your
own dollar and then urge every other reader whom
you know to do the Don't procrastnate and for

afford one dollar to mako Kansas free forever. 1t Is
not true You afford it, however your lot may be
cast If You know not uxuries nor even cOmforts-if
your daily bread comes of the daily sweat of your
brow still you can afford to give this much to Gods
service and for yourself the blessings OF the
future millions in Ksnsas from whose soil you will
have sioed to exclude "the Of all villaines -
Slavery.
Don't depend on some individual collecting COM
mittee calling you and relieving you of the trouble
of remittng but send to the propieors ofTHE N. Y.
TRIBUNE your dollar, or more if your means warrant.
We who read The TRIBUNE know that our fund can
not be placed in more trustworthy and udicious hands
than those Of its phianthropc and patriotic propde-
