The Springfield Union, which has long had the lar
gest circulation Of any paper in Western MAssachu-
sets was never 80 popular and so heartily sustained
as now Its subscription list is growing as never be-
fore, in spite of the hard times and the inc reasing
favor with which is received stimulates its conduc-
tors to fresh aud continued efforts to realize the
own ideal and to satisfy the just demands Of their
constituents.
As newspaper, The Union prints the news. local
and general from twelve to fifteen hours in advance

As political journal The Union is in favor Of the
principles and policy Of the Republican party II is
not ashamed to be called a Republican paiIer and
does not hesitate to advocate every proper occasion

worthy OF being sustained openly and frankly, while
1t remains worthy. The Union will not fear the re-
proach Of being Republican paper.
But The Union does not forget that politics cannot
