White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1865-03-02
The Tribune, for 1866.
PROSPECTUS.

The Military and Naval successes of 1854
! with the auspicious result Of our Presidential
contest, have lifted heavy weight from the
breasts of the Loyal Millions of our country men
! 1t is row felt, even by those who have been
dis:rustful and faint hearted, that the Union is
to emerge triumphant from the deadly strife
whereinto she was so wickedly precipitated by
her assailants, and that Slavery, her relentless
foe, is to encounter the fate of Haman. The
perils of foreign Intervention and of Western
insurrection are safely passed; ABRAHAM LIN.
colin, no longer assailable as the choice of q
minority, holds the helm of State for four years
longer; the Rebellion, palpabiy weakened BY
its defeats and losses during the year now clos
| ing-with its credit so reduced that its purse
bearer officially declares that its Treasury Notes
can only be exchanged for cola at the rate ol
twenty five for one, while its bonds commtn6
but six cents n the dollar-but awaits the blow
which shall soon strike the sword from its par
ricidal hand, and remit its master-spirits to The
justice, or it may be to the clemency, of sare
ly wrorged and justly incensed but forbearins
and magranimous People. Such are the auspi-
ces which justify our faith that the year soon to
open will see the Stars and Stripes float unchal-
lenSed from every battlement in the Republic,
and the perfect law of Liberty for All immova-
bly, imbedded in the Constitution of our Union.
THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE, founded in le4l
will enter upon its twenty fourth year with
quickened hopes and enlarged means of useful
ness. Its principles need no re statement: its
aims are the diffusion of Intelligence and the
incubation of spirit of Freedom and Humani-
ty. When this truth shall have been generally
recognized and established as the basis of our
institutions and polity, that injustice to the
poorest, the weakest, the most despised, is q
fearful mistake-that no community or State
can afford to wrong even its humblest member
then will our land bask once more in the calm
sunshine of peace and prosperity.
The Tribune has for the last year been pub
lished without profit to its proprietors, solely
because Of the depreciation of our Currency be-
low the specie standard, compelling US to buy
paper and other materials at a cost considerably
above the full amount received from our sub
scribers. On our Weekly edition, the nett loss
has amounted many thousands Of dollars;
while our large receipts from Advertising have
been wholly absorbed by the extraordinary eK-
penses for Correspondence, Telegraphing, &c,
devolved on US by the War. As we do not sup
pose our patrons desire that we should work for
them at our own cost, and prefer not to be pat
ronized by any who my desire 1t, We have
somewhat advanced for the ensuing year the
prices of our Semi. Weekly and Weekly, as we
had already done with those of our Daily edi-
tions. This increase is purely nominal: there
never before was time when the farmers of
our country could buy The Tribune for SO little
Of their own products or labor as they can by
the following
