ENLARGEMENT OF THE NEWS.

We have definitely determined to enlarge TIE
News. The enlargement will consist Of the add-
ton of one broad column IN width to each page,
and two inches In length /; and viii take place so
soon as can make the necessary arrangements
which will probably be in three weeks from this
time. The enlarged sheet will be 26x3S inches in
size, making it one Of the largest papers in the
This step will not only cost us heavy outlay
Of money for new material, but will also add large
~ to uIr current expenses FOR Paper, int. cOmpO-
eition, press work DC Now to make The News
thereafter relHunerative to us, or even to make it
sustain itself we must have large increase Of sub
.cribers. as we'll advertisers. The Emporia
merchants and business men generally, with that
sagaeity and lberality SO characteristic OF Them
AZ the enlargement takes place will considerably
;ncrease their patronage in that line But we
should have onr subscription list doubled IN add-
ton. We do not boast when we say that iHE
News has alscdys been worthy OF the support of
the people of Central. Southern, and Southwest
ern Kansas-nor when say that after the en-
larpeuens we whall be able TO, and t0'A make 1t
still more worthy of their patronage. We offer
the past as a guarantee for the future.
Now we know it is "hard times"-we have 'iD
dubitable evidence" of the faet-but poor as the
people are there is not really one IN hundred in
this section of country that cannot afford to take,
and pau for, TIE News If you cannot take it for
a near only take it for siz nsontks-and when the
first six months are expired, you can renew your
subscription for another.
We shall give to every subscriber the full rOrth of
his snone with heavy interest added. We will give
il to YOU in the latest NJ VS. 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 a 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 it's effects
on the government than any other that has been
conducted for years. And while We shall not al
low the political to encroach upon the other de-
partnents of THE Rws, vet we shall publish the
We've 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 FnEE La
BoR against that of SLAVE LABOR.
We shall labor increasingly, as heretofore, for
the advancement of the prosperity Of this portion
of Kansas and the better we supported the
more we shall be able to accomplish in that di
rection.
