THE WISCONSIN
Annual Announcement.

The proprietors of The WISCONSIN,
in making their annual announcement
for 1873, feel impelled to return their thanks
for the marked increase in the list OF their
readers for 1873. Encouraged by this evi.
dent approval of the character and course
of their journal in the past, they have deter.
mined to add new features to its attractive
ness, both as q family and as q political
newspaper. THE WISCONSIN now has .
larger and more widespread circulation han
ever before since it was founded. There is
scarcely . postofice in the state, out Of over
thirteen hundred, to which We do not send
one or more copies of THE WISCONSIN,. We
very much desire 10 be able to say in our
next announcement, If Providence shall
spare us, that we have at last . footing at
every place in this broad commonwealth
where the government delivers its mails.
To do this will require but a little effort on
the part of postmasters where our paper il
not now received.
Last year we appealed for the first time
in over thirty years to our readers to assist
us in the extension of the circulation of The
WISCONSIN. The response was very graf
flying and satisfactory. We again ask our
readers to make it a point to try and induce
some neighbor to add their subscription to
their own, and thus remit $500 instead of
the usual $3.50. Such a course on the part
Of all Of our subscribers would double our
list Of readers, and double our power of use.

The proprietors ofTHE WISCONSIN are not
wont to allude to partisan topics in their
annual announcements. But we believe
there is real danger in the future from the
coalition of the Democrats, Greenbackers,
Nationals and Communists. Unless the
conservative and property-owning classes
are organized, united and active there il
great possibility that this union Of disorder
