COurier.J OnrnaI.
For the Centennial Year. /.
1897!
1876

During all the century of our nationals
existence, no one year has perhaps en-
bodied so much of interest and impor-
lance as will be compassed within the
twelve months of the Centennial Ami
versary. The year 1876 witnesses in the
popular Congressional body the return to.
power of the great National Democracy, =.
which will be watched with intense in
terest in its every movement The great
Centennial Exposition, illustrating and
emphasizing every phase OF the ma TONS
progress, side by side with the develops
ments Of universal civilization, will afford
q constant fund Of incident and informa-
ton, which. to the great mass Of the peo-
pie, can only be reflected by the n,swspa-.
per Of broad scope and commanding re-
sources. The Presidential contest ofths
year, with the great diversity Of interests
and opinions, and the anomalous align
ment Of men, and parties, and sections,
will be fought with a skill, energy and
WEAKNESS only equaled by the moment.
GUS results depending upon tae great
struggle.
An era 80 full Of interest signalizes the
extraordinary need of all the p.ople for
means Conformation and instruction and
stimulates the press to its highest possi-
bilities. Conscious Of this need, aud in
ready response to it, the management Of
the
LOUISVILLE COURIER-JOiURNAL
Is determined that its Forty-sixth year
shall more than maintain its supremacy
as the great newspaper Of the West and
South.
The CoURIER-JoURNAL combines the
experience. ability and material resources
of three old time Louisville newspapers
of national repute-the Louisville Couri-
er, Louisville Journal and Louisville
Democrst-and is fortified in the respect
and con 6dence resulting from nearly halt
century Of their individual and COM
bined success. Its thoroughly independ-
ent Democratic position will be fully
maintained, and all its departments win
be most carefully prepared. Il gives, in
the course of year, several attractive
serial novels, romances, &c, written sx-
pressly for its columns; its telegraphic
summary faithfully reflects all the news
of the world; able special correspondents
write from all the great capitals; the
financial and commercial reports are CO.
pious and Trustworthy; the agricultural
department is becoming more and moro
complete and interesting; the Patrons OF
Husbandry have in the CoURIER-JOUkSAL,
the advantage Of a great newspaper; pub
lished in the city Of their National Head
quarters, with grange department writ
ten by member Of the order, whose de-
votion, ability and prudence are univsr-
sally acknowledged; wit. satire. gossip
and paragraphs pungency are represents
ed in many varied departments
The COURlER-JoURNAL is submitted to-
the people as embracing q continuation ct
all the conservative elements which have
joined hands over the altar Of the Con-.
stitution in forming a great. national.
Democratic party. Il is also presented.
as the largest, livest and cheapest news
paper in America No other paper pub.
lished in the South or Southwest can ap--
proach il in these respects.
For the truth Of these assertions. the
reader is simply requested TO compare
the COURIER>JOURSAL, line by line and
column 10y column, with any other news
paper south Of the Ohie river. II the re-
suit is not found to leave a balance in its
favor, we will not urge the point. Our
aim is to produce the best srticl. on the
market and to sell it cheapest The
law Of trade applies not less TO neusps--
pers than to other articles OF everyday
life. We look to the unvarying rule of
this great common law for our success s.
By giving the public the largest. Invest,
fullest. freshest, cheapest and most rep
resentative press, the CoURIER-JoURsAL-
expects to snrpass all rivalry in eircula--
ton and influence.
