OUR ENLARGEMENT

OUR ENLARGEMENT.---Again We
have the pleasure Of presenting the DsVen-
port Gd.etie ia its readers IN an enisEseo
form. To Keep pace with the increasing
business of gur city, which enlarges with the
progress Of the place, it has become nece5-
sary that we again extend the limits OF our
paper. During the winter, which Is the Gull
est season of the year, we have been under
the nece ssity Of frequently emitting from one
10 two columns Of advertisements, IN order
TO and little space in which TO crowd read
ingmatter. With the opening Of the spring
DfSness we find it obligatory upon US either
TO enlarge our linita or refuse to adVestiSe
Tor men who not only ask it, but crave il as
favor.
As an experiment on very limited en'
,uIation Ne commenced the issue Of the ud
.eite as a sii-weekly the lst OF September
1863, on small, i've column sheet. Our
circulation increasing, we soon enlarged 10
Il six column sheet Shortly afterwards @e
converted the fri-weekly into daily snce
that time We have again enlarged TO a seven
column paper Last fall We introduced 4
steam press into our office, The hr7' N 'he
State and the only one on the Upper Mi sss.s-
sippi river west Of Chicago. Now again we
present onr readers with the daly Gaasits
embracing eight columns to page and the
weekly Go,dts Of nine columns, trusting
that not only in dimensions, but IN typo
graphical and general appearance, II il mol
excslled by any newspaper in the great and
growing West
1t shall b. our ainl as il has been during
the fifteen years we have published the Ga
.si.s, to keep our readers advised OF nome
matters. Everything affecting the welfare
OF our city, county and State possesses deep
interes, to US, and while We keep our readers
posted with regard to the important occur
rences Of the day, we will see that they are
not ignorant Of events transpiring IN their
proximity.
