LOUISVILLE
NATIONAL UNION PRESS,

A DdHg Newspaper 10 represent and ddrocdte
the rictrS Of Unconditional Union Men.
LROM the inception of the rebellion, the genuine
l. Union sentiment Of the State Of Kentucky has
found but little expression, either In the addresses Of
the prominent politicians or in the press. This
state Of things at all times source Of murmuring,
though somewhat allcviated by the partial supply Of
loyal journals from other States has at last ripened
into dissatisfaction and positive demand for such
newspaper,
Demanding that the rebellion shall bosupprcsscd,
we would have all the means necessary to suppress
II checrfully supplied Regarding unity Us essential
to speedy sncccss We would enforce /, us the duty of
every citizen TO give to those who administer the
Government-whilstt the war contnueS-sympathy
and support, Believing the rebellion TO be not only
without palliation or excuse, but crime we would
have it taught that those who have inauguracd and
prosecuted it should wholly bear tho responsibility
of It's guilt, Recognizing the rebellion MS gigantic
in its proportions, we would have the difficulty Of
graphing with it fully realized
In so wide n field where the instruments employ
ed must be varied, errors of judgment are unavoid-
able. We would not, therefore, Judge harshy of
the means employed whilst we see they are sugges-
ted by sincere desire to rc-establsh the authority
of the Government In word, we wish to teach
that il is the paramount duty of the Government to
preserve the Union by all the means recognized by
by civil warfare. Rejoicing Mt every triumph of our
arms, we d'siro to affiliate with those true Union
men everywhere, who hope for and look to the ma
tons in the feld--not to its defeat ms the
surcst means Of securing lasting and honorable
peace,
The vote of the people of Kentucky, on every
occasion-and their resolutions in their primary
meetings far ahead Of their politicians, far in nd
Of their press, to us the surest guaranty
that majority are with US. The object Of this pa
per is TO give organization to that majority and
to devclopo into political action the convictions
which, in their hearts the people cherish. Also, to
take full advantage Of the facilities at command to
furnish its patrons with the current news and TO de-
vclope some important features of Daily that have

NEW FIRM.-We take great pleasure in
calling the favorable attention of our me-
chanics, western merchants, and others,
to the new firm Of Brownell Bros, sue
cessors to Joe! Rice, in the iron business,
in our city. The gentlemen which com
pose this firm have established reputa-
ton for enterprise, honorable qualities,
fair aud liberal dealing. and are already
well known to the public. and we are con-
6dent that they will in short time build
up an immense trade. Blacksmiths. ma
chinists and mechanics will find it to thsiI
advantage to examine their stock, which
is one of the largest and most complete iu
the west, and consists of everything in
their line of business. Their establish
ment is on the corner OF Main and Fourth
streets. See advertisement in another
column.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1864-03-25

PLANT LARGELY.-The high prices
that all kinds of produce has brought this
year will stimulate our agricultural friends
to plant greater breadth OF ground this
year than they have hitherto. There is
certainly no business that pays better at
present than agriculture, and as conse-
quence our farmers are becoming wealthy.
Political economists have always main
tained that the wealth of nation lies in
her agricultural resources, and the pres
ent time shows the truth and wisdom of
the remark To-day the great source Of
wealth in our State lies with the tiilers of
the soil. As the farmer upturns the sod
and reaps the golden grain, our State in-
creases in wealth and importance. Then
to continue its onward course it is neces
sary for the agriculturists to extend their
operatlons-get 10 more seed each year
and gather more wealth.
