MISSOURI REPUBLICAN.
PROSPECTUS FOR 1879.
Twenty-Iour Grand Premiums.


The progress of the age, so marvellous and
startling, exucts Of journalism a commensurate
spirit of enterprise, and such the conductors of
the Missouri Republican endea or to infuse into
all its varied departments. Intimately identified
with every effort for the advancement If the West
and South, the Republican has long been the ac-
knowledged reflector and exponent Of the mate
rial interests of those sections But its sphere is
not confined to the West and South. The con-
Germs of the nation are discussed in its columns,
and the Intelligence it prints is gathered from all
quarters of the globe
Independent and fearless, the Republican is
never subservient to cliques or coteries. Its high
est aim is to be the organ of the intelligent
thought of the PEOPLE. Its mission is to teach,
to elevate, to reform, and its political creed en-
braces those great principles Of liberty and gov
ernmeut which form the groundwork of our
Union and of which the Democratic party has
long been the true exponent in America.
In the discussions of the vital questions which
must arise within the next twelve. month the
Republican will be found at the front pointing
| the way, not waiting to be shown. The "Nis-
souri, Policy. with which it is prominently identi
fed, is already recognized as furnishing the only
hope Of relief from the expressions of the domi.
nant party. 1t has struck a responsive cord in
the hearts of the people and will continue to
grow in popular favor till it finds its c,owning
| glory at the polls on the 4th OF next November.
But not alone or chiefly rs an advocate and di
rector Of political reform does the Republican
present its claims. As n vehickle for the trans
mission of news and of intelligence every
subject, it will commend itself to readers of all
shades of political faith. Its editorial corps is
large and composed of writers who have made
journalism profession. their particular depart
ments speciality, and who bring their lab bors the
earnestness which results from its being their
life long calling. Neither labor nor expense will
be spared to obtain the latest intelligence, wheth
er 10 al, domestic, or foreign, and large corps
Of correspondents and a liberal use Of the tele-
graph will make each issue compact and COM
prehensive history of the worlds doings."
