ENLARGEMENT OF THE NEWS.

We have definitely determined to enlarge THE
NEWS. The enlargement will consist of the addi-
ton of one broad column in width to each page,
and two inches in length and will take place so
soon as we can make the necessary arrangements
which will probably be in three weeks from this
time. The enlarged sheet will be 26x38 inches in
size, making it one of the largest papers in the
This Step willan& onlycost us heavy soufay
of money for material, but will also add large
" to our current expenses for paper, ink, compo-
sition, press work, DC Nov, to make The News
thereafter remunerative to US, or even to make it
sustain ITSELF must have large increase of sub
scribers, well as advertisers The lEmporia
merchants and business men generally, with that
sagacity and liberality characters of them,
have always advertised extenslvely-and soon
as the enlargement takes place will considerably
increase their patronage in that line. But we
should have subscription list doubled in addi-
ton. Wed9 not boast when we say that THE
News has -dII1dyS been worthy of the support of
the people of Ceptral.lSouthern, and Southwest
ern Kansas-nor when we say that after the en-
largement we whaIl be able to, and ,oiH make it
still more worthy of their patronage. We offer
the past us q guarantee for the future.
Now we know it is "hard times''-we have Gin
dubitable evidence of the fact-but poor as the
people are there is not really one in hundred in
this section of country that cannot afford to take,
and pan for, THE NEWS If you cannot take it for
n uear, only take it for sic nontis-and when the
first six months expired, you can renew your
subscription for another.
We shall give to every subscriber the full tCOTth of
his money with heavy interest added. We will give
it to YOU in the latest from all parts of the
world in miscellaneous reading of an instructive
character in political news and speculations in
agricultural and scientific matters and also in
furnishing you, complete epitome of the business
and other local interests and transactions of this
portion of Kansas
An exciting political canvass is about to COM
mence-perhaps more important in its effects
on the government thaniany other that has been
conducted for years. And while we shall not al
low the political to encroach upon the other de-
partments of THE News, yet we shall publish the
views of parties and persons. and keep our read
crs thoroughly >''posted' on the progress and
events of the campaign and also boldly and to
and fairness, espouse the noble cause of FREE La
poR against that of SLAVE LABOR.
Weshall labor INCREASINGLY, as heretofore, for
the advancement of the prosperity of this portion
of Kansas and the better we are supported the
more we shall be able to accomplish in that di
reeton. -T.a.-s- zr5-5 :aI . - - ~
