Chicago Tribune for 1867.

.THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is bold, earn
il est and straightforward Republican paper,
devoted to the cause of Freedom, Progress. and
Reform. Believing that Liberty. and nos
Bondage is the saving principle Of the kepub-
lie, it is enlisted into the Republican ranks,
not for campaign, but during the strugsls'
between Freedom and Slavery. 1t contends
for the principles declared by the unanimous
vote of the Fathers of the Republic in the Con-
gress of 1887 that SLAVERY or involuntary ser
vitude shall never exist in territory now Free"
and it therefore insists that Kansas shall be free,
that Slavery shall be excluded ftom all Ma
tional Territory, and that the influence OF the
General Government shall be exercised OH the
side of Freedom.
THE TRIBUNE AS NEWSPAPER.
The City of Chicago has become the Rewss
centre as well as the Commercial emporiurs,
of the great N Northwest. The vast system or
railroads terminating in it, afford facilities for
gathering intelligence from all directions WITH
great dispatch, and the Tribune is unrivalsed
in the West for its enterprise in this department
It's long and spacious columns are filed with
fresh and entertaining matter, mbracing essays.
tales letters, narratives, poetry, politics, and
miscellane GUS articles The Tribune is elevated
in moral Tone and erninently adapted TO the
western home circle, and the freside of inteIh-
gent, freedom-loving families.
THE TRIBUNE AS COMMERCIAL PAPER.
The Tribune is the best commercial paper in
Chicago. No expense OF labor is spared to
make its market reports reliable and satisfae-
tory, not only fer Chicago, but for the princi-
pal eastern markets. The Chicago quotations
are based on actual sales. "

Nearly four years ago the Minnesota Weekly
Times came before the public, and from that
period to the present it has been battling for
the cause of freedom and the rights of man,
regardless of the ties of party OF the sneers and
.iibes of partizan leaders. By pursuing con-
sistent and straightforward carae-, Nv persist
ent devotion to principles, it has won its way
to public favor, and notwithstanding it is the
youngest of the city press, it has attained
very large and rapidly increasing circulation.
This has been accomplished, not by system
of self-laudation, but by the spontaneous pat
ronage of its friends throughout Minnesota and
the Eastern States.
The Times has ever advocated, and will con-
tinue to advocate, the cause OF the people, and
in doing so it has advocated the cause of the
great Republican party whose principles it has
warmly espoused and will defend to the best
of its ability. 1t never has and never will pam
der to the vices of the vicious, and never finch
es from graphing with error wherever it exists.
It believes in al honest utterance of the truth
in adhering to right justice and temperance
- i'll an outspoken, manly condemnation of
wrong in a just appreciation of the wants of
the honest settler, to whom a home should be
guaranteed by Congress, and in the develop
ment of all those resources which are caleulat-
ed to place us first among the States of this
great confederacy.
Many new features will be added to the
TIMES in the course of the year 1853. We shall
spare no pains to procure the latest and most
reliable news both at home and from abroad );
shall publish weekly full and correct re-
port of the Markets, = and shall at all times
