Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with a new and faster Press
at a cost of $4,000, merely that some of our
subscribers may receive their papers a mad
earlier than they otherwise might do. With
|
throughout the civilized world, and IA staff of
writers chosen from among the best in the
country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of our sheet concede to ii frank
ness in ayowing 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 we'll 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 III every To-
caEty to speak 10 their neighbors and friends
in our behelf; we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists OF those who would receive and
read a specimen copy of one of our 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.
