That the TIMES is really the largest in the State
does not rest solely upon the testimony of its pub
fishers. We here quote from two Of the leading
Iowa dailies on this point, whose testimony will
not be doubted:
Council Bluffs Daily Nonpareil.l
The Dubuque Times is now the largest as 1t has
ever been one Of the best daily papers in the state
[Iowa State Register
The Dubuque Times has been changed to eight
pages and enlarged. 1t is now the largest daily in
the State.
This advance to the leadership of Iowa dailies is
in accord with the fitness of things. Dubuque is
the largest city in the State, and the country tribu
tary to it is of great extent. Iowa is an over
whelming Republican State, and the TIMES being
the
Only Republican Daily in the North
Half of Iowa,
its widest and greatest circulation is thus logically
attested by this fact, to say nothing OF the assur
ance of its publishers and the reports of post
masters throughout the section named. Add to
this Northwestern Illinois, Southwestern WiscOn-
sim and Southeastern Minnesota, and it becomes
evident that the Dubuque TIMES is
WITHOUT A RIVAL.
The WEEKLY TIMES is also large eight page
sheet, the only one published in Dubuque, brim-
full Of Geographic and general news, State and
National; 1t is wide awake, aggressive, ambl-
ments during the past year than any other paper
in Iowa The coming year is the Centennial Of our
National Independence, and is the Presidential
year. And as 1876 will be one Of the most event
full since the close of the war, everybody will de-
to Keep thoroughly posted. 1t will furnish the
latest news Of tho action Of Congress, and will
have resident Geographic and letter correspond
eht at Des MOines during the winter to report the
Of the General Assembly.
Politically the TIMES will be the advocate of
Unions Integrity and the conntry's Honor, 1t
will represent the Centennial idea nf free schoos
free religion, free press, freedom from monopolies
and equal and exact justice to all. 1t will strive
to perpetuate these principles by aiding In the
election Of Republican Centennial President
MARKET REPORTS.
The TIMES publishes the best Market Reports
of any paper in Iowa. Two columns of Dubuque
wholesale quotations, with full reports by tele-
graph from Liverpool. New York, Baltimore, Phil
adelphia, Cincinnati, Toledo, Chicago Milwaukee
and st. Louis all of which are compiled with great
care and may be implicitly relied upon.
STEADY NO STEPS
BACKWARD.
Having stepped to the front of Iowa newspapers,
the TIMES will take no steps backwards. Its pre-
eminence shall be maintained at no matter what
cost. Its coat is off and sleeves rolled up for the
Centennial and Presidential year
