The REGISTER FOR NOTHIN6.-
Winter, with its leisure hours, long
nights, and social times, when reading
matter is doubly necessity and doub-
ly beneficial, Is coming on rapidly.
The Register, during that time, as In
all others, we hope to make the best
paper the people of Iowa can take
The busy season of politics is now
over for time, and the space we have
devoted to that we shall occupy to a
large extent in reading matter for the
family. We shall give to those who
wish news, all there is; and we shall
aim to make the paper complete in all
other departments.
This winter the Register will be es.
pecially valuable to Iowa people on
account Of its Legislative reports,
which will he the fullest and freshest
published. This Is something every
intelligent citizen Of Iowa must have,
and from no other source can he get
so full, complete, fresh, and satisfac-
tory report as the Register, right
here on the ground, will give. Let
all Iowa people, as they shall be ma
king up their list Of papers for the
winter, not forget to include the most
important Of all, an Iowa State paper.
Take your own home paper, and then
II you want another, take one that
will ut once give you the news of Town
and the news of the world.
Any person SO disposed can get the
Register for one year without cash
outlay. We will send the Weekly
Register year to any one sending US
a club Of twelve subscribers ut $l.5O
a copy. There Is not neighborhood
in the State where club OF this size,
cannot be procured without trouble,
aud copy thus be secured free. Those
who would like the Daily Register
free year. can get 1t by sending us
forty weekly subscribers at $3.50 each,
or ten daily subscribers. There is
hardly store-keeper in any town
within one hundred miles Of Des
Moines who could not thus get daily
paper, with the daily market reports
and news, without cost.
We will also adhere to our rule OF
sending single copy Of the Weekly
to any old subscriber for $3.50 who
will send us new subscriber at $500
There IL not subscriber who could
not do this.
Our inducements to agents we shall
continue to make liberal. We would
call the attention of newsdealers and
postmasters to the fact that now Is 9
good time to heginto get up clubs fol
the Daily and the Weekly. The time
between now and the meeting of til.
Legislature will be of continual inter
est, and after that body shall NEE
