The year 1876, the centennial Of American In
dependence and the period Of the quadrennially
recurring presidential election, will be one Of ex-
traordinary interest in our history. What with
the International Exhibition at Philadelphia, thu
celebration Of Revolutionary anniversaries in all
the earlier settled portions of the country, the
holding Of political conventions and the national
election which will decide whether the Repuh1;-
can party shall continue in control of therfovern-
ment or be supplanted by the rag MONEY demoe
racy-great events will crowd each other, and a
6rst-cass newspaper will have an interest and y
value never before realized,
The Union is not only keonly alive to the ext
gencies and opportunities Of the hour, but is bet.
ter equipped than ever before, and more thor
oughly prepared every way, to give all the news,
and at the EARLIEST possible moment. II should
also be held in mind that the Union. being an
evening paper, is enabled to print all the import.
ant news of the day the same night, and habitu-
ally anticipates all near contemporaries in the
publication Of important intelligence, both local
and general With the extension Of the tele-
graph all over the world, and the ever increasing
perfection of the cooperative system of collecting
news, the evening paper is yearly becoming more
| important to those who desire the freshest nfor-
nation, little but geanings Of news being left for
the morning journals.
AS Republican paper-the only Republican
daily in western Massachusets-the Union also
appeals strongly to those who believe that only
party is there any chance Of a return te an honest
currency and the revival of business upon a firm
basis, or any hope Of administrative reform, no.
litical progress and true prosperity. slight
taste OF power by tho democrats has been suffi-
clcnt TO bring into prominence the dishonesty of
that party in financial matters. 20 show the hol-
low nature Of its professed zeal for reform and its
general rcactonary tendencies. The rebuke il
has received at the hands of the people in the
elections Of 1875 should be repeated and empha-
sized in 1916, by tho election of a Republican
president for the ensuing four years and the
wrestling of the popular branch of Congress from
democratic control, restoring to it a majority Of
the party which alone, rs is shown by long ex-
pefience, can use it without abusing it. The
Union can be confidently relied on to DO its full
share in bringing about so desirable result, and
IN ITS Efforts it has the right to expect the cordial
support and assistance Of all true Republicans
but hereafter, as heretofore while Jealous for tho
triumph OF the Republican party and its princi-
pies. the Union will be the organ Of no individual
or clique To the extent Of its influence it will
allow no personal ambitions to stand in the way
OF the general good, aud will be as prompt to
criticize as to praise when criticism Of men or
measures is needed.
Mhlle prc-eminent as a newspaper and polit-
ical journal, The Union is also much more than
that Everything Of interest to humanity can
claim space and attention in lis columns. Liter
AZURE and art, music and the DRAMA science and
agriculture, religious and education-all form
regular departments Of that paper. Tho world
is Cleaned for freshest Intelligence relating to
them, and readers are provoked to thought by
editorial comments and suggestions. To matters
relating to home and home enjoyments to house
and personal adornmcnt to good living as well
as nigh thinking, the Union always pays due at
tention. Indeed, it Intentionally neglccts Moth
ing that can make life richer, better longer Its
Office Is not that cf dictator any point or in
any respect, but is rather that Of a sympathizng
neighbor n watchiul and consoling friend. That
Its position and aims arc appreciated by the pub
lie is attested by its ever growing description
list and the many kind words and wishes Of which
it is tho recipient. Proud of its circulation, the
Union is still prouier Of the character Of its read
ers-the intelligent people OF New England and
the voluntary cXiles from it to the west and
south, and to foreign countries To make paper
} still moro worthy Of such a constituency will bo
the constant aim and endeavor of the conductors
of this journal.
