PROPECTUS FOR 1874.

The coming year promises to be the
most eventful in a 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 Hi
nois the Farmers Movement-having a
common purpose and inspiration, and ex-
hibiting 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 nc longer any principles to carry
into effect, they have become mere bust
ness enterprises, making a show of oppo-
sition 10 each other, but really sharing in
the proceeds of profigate and dishonest
legislation. To suppose that any health
fui reform can flow from the pretended
efforts of these wornout and demoralized
partnerships is altogether vain and IL
iusory.
Cd. That the tariff system now in
vogue Is a 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 moro

actually invested in them, and that when,
in addition TO this, they claim dividends
on watered stock and fraudulent bonds,
the State may rightfully interfere for the
protection o. the people; that unjust dis
examinations between different localities
are in violation of law and should be pro-
hibited.
4th. 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,
fraught with with the gravest dangers to
the people, and tending to promote cor
ruption, extravaganza, speculation, and fl
nancial disaster.
