PROPECTUS FOR 1874.

The coming year promises to be the
most eventful in political sense that we
have seen since the close of the war. The
questions which have engrossed and di-
vided the public mind during the past
twenty years are rapidly passing away,
and we find growing up in different parts
OF the country party called by various
names-in California the independent
party, in Iowa the Anti-Monopoly party,
In Wisconsin the Reform party, in Illi-
nois the Farmers Movement-having a
common purpose and inspiration, and ex-
hibitiqg strength which proves that 1t
answers one of the chief demands of the
hour. The CHICAGO TRIBUNE will
give large share of its attention to this
NEW MANIFESTATION OF PUB.
Lie SENTIMENT. 1t holds:
1st- That the old party organizations
are essentially corrupt and fraudulent.
Having no longer any principles to carry
into effect, they have become mere bust
ness enterprises, making q show of cppo-
sition to each other, but really sharing in
the proceeds of profigate and dishonest
legislation. To suppose that any health
full reform can flow from the pretended
efforts Of these WORKOUT and demoralized
partnerships is altogether vain and il
lusory.
I'd. That the tariff system now in
vogue is cunning device to rob the
many for the benefit of the few, and that
Its effect is to cause farm products to ex-
change for about one half the quantity of
foreign or protected" goods they would
otherwise buy.
Sd. That railroads cannot exact more
than fair rate of interest on the capital
actually invested in them, and that when,
In addition to this, they claim dividends
on watered stock and fraudulent bonds,
che State MAJ rightfully interfere for the
protection o. the people; that unjust dis
ordinations between different localities
are in violation Of law and should be pro-
hibited.
18th. That subsidies or bounties of
money, land, or public credit, to railway,
steamship. or other corporations, are flag
rant abuses of the powers of government,
franght with with the gravest dangers to
the people, and tending to promote cor
ruption, extravaganza, speculation, and f.
nancial disaster.
The general character of THE CHI
CAG0 TRIBUNE is too well establish
I'd to need recapitulation. 1t is always
independent and fearless in the express
ai0a of its views In its news department
it is second 20 no paper in the United
States. The Weekly Edition contains a
carefully prepared summary of the news
of the week, brought down to the hour of
