This step viii not only cost us a heavy outlay
of money for new material, but will also add large
" to our current expenses for paper. ink, compo-
siton, press-work. &c. Now, to make TIE N Ews
thereafter remunerative to us. even to make It
sustain ITSELF must have large increase of sub.
scribers. as well as advertisers. The. Emporia
merchants and business men generally with that
sngacity and liberality characteristic of them,
have always advertised extensively-- and as soon
the enlargement takes place Wilt considerably
increase their patronage in that line. But we
should have our subscription list doubled in addi
ton. We do not boast when we say that THE
News has alscdys beer worthy of the support of
the people of Central, Southern and Southwest

largement We whall be able to, and lOiH make it
still more worthy Of their patronage. We offer
the past a guarantee for the future.

conducted for years. And while shall not al
low the political to encroach upon Che other de-
pnrtments of THE News, yet we shall publish the
views of parties and persons, and keep our read

events of the campaign. and also boldly and to
the best of ability, in a spirit of impartiaity
