Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with new and fastar Press
at cost of $4,000, merely that some of our

writers chosen from among the best in the
country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of sheet concede to il frank
ness in avowing its convictions and ability in
maintaining them. We appeal, then, to those
who believe that an increased circulation OF
The Tribune would conduce to the political,
intellectual and moral well-being of the Repub-
lie, to aid us in effecting such increase. AS
we employ no travelling solicitors of subscrip-
tons, we ask our present patrons in every To-
cality to speak to their neighbors and friends
in our behelf; we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists of those who would receive and
read specimen copy of one of cur editions
and shall be particularly grateful to those who
may send US such names from post offices at
which we have now no subscribers. Whatever
additions may thus be made to our circulation
shall be paralleled by increased efforts and
expenditures to make our issues more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been.
