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 divided the public
mind during the past twenty years are rapid
" passing away and we find growing up in
different parts OF the country a party called
by various nanes-in California the indie
pendent party, i'll Iowa, the Anti Monopoly
party, in Wisconsin the Reform party in
Illinois the Farmers MISUNDERSTANDING Il
common purpose and inspiration, and eXhib-
iting a strength which proves that it answers
one of the chief demands of the hour. THE
CHICAGO TRIBUNE will give large share
of its attention to this NEW MANIFESTO
TION OF PUBLIC 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 business enterprises,
making a show of opposition to each other,
but really sharing i'll the proceeds of profit
gate and dishonest legislation. To suppose
that any heathtul reform can flow from the
pretended efforts of these WORKOUT and de
moralized partnerships Is altogether vain and
illusory.
End. 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 exchange for about
e-half the quantity of foreign or protect
ed" goods they would otherwise buy.
Sd. That railroads cannot exact more than
"a fair rate of interest on the capital actually
Invested III them, and that when, in addition
to this they claim dividends on watered
stock and fraudulent bonds, the State may
rghtfully interfere for the protection of the
a hot,
different localities are in violation Of law and
should be prohibited
4th That subsidies or bcunties Of money,
land, or public credit, to railway, steamship,
or other corporations, are fragrant abuses of
the powers of government, traught with the
gravest dangers to the people, and J.. tending
to promote corruption, extravaganza, specu-
laton, and financial disaster.
The general character of THE CHICAGO
TRIBUNE is too well established to need re-
capitulation. 1t is always Independent and
fearless III the expression of its views. In
its news department it is second to no paper
in the United States. The weekly edition
contains carefully prepared summary of the
news Of the week, brought down to the hour
of gong to press.
Literary, political financial social and ag-
ricultural topics viii constitute, as hereto
fore, leading features Of the weekly edition,
and no pains will be spared to increase its
attractlveness in these departments. It's
market reports are unsurpassed, embracing
all the information which farmers require for
the intelligent transaction of business both
as sellers and buyers

surpassed by any paper in the land
