Annual Announcement.

The proprietors of THE WISCONSIN.
in making their annual announcement
for 1879, feel impelled to return their hanks
for the marked increase in the list of their
readers for 1873. Encouraged by thia evil
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 family and as a political
newspaper. THE WISCONSIN now has a
larger and more widespread circulation than
ever before since it was founded. Th$re ia
scarcely postoffice in the state, out of.oyer
thirteen hundred, to which we do not send
one or more copies of THE WISCONSIN,. We
very much desire to be able to say liz Gun
next announcement, il Providence shall
spare US, that we hare at last a footing ut
every place in this broad commonwealth
where the government delivers its pals
To do this will require out little etfot ON
the part of postma5ters where our pal,er is
not now received.
Last year we appealed for the first tiTlein
over thirty years to our readers to assist
us in the extension of the circulation OF Try
WISCONSIN. The response was very graft
Tying and satisfactory. We again ask cur
readers to make it point to try and induce
some neighbor to add their subscription 10
their own, and thus remit $500 instead Of
the usual $780, Such course on the part
of ali of our subscribers would double cur
list of readers, and double our power of
usefulness.
The proprietors of THE 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, GreenbacSefs,
Nationals and Commulisss. Unless the
conservative and property-owning classes
are organized, united and active there ID
great possibility that this union of disGyder
ly, disconnected and revolutionary elerSerts
will be swept into power in the Stat, and
Nation. If they do succeed on the av3wsd
principles of their leaders, our people viii
live over again the terrible scenes of loss,
distress and riot of 1877. Possibly general
anarchy will result from an attempt 10 ei-
vide the property of the thrifty and yreyi.
dent among the lazy and worthless.
The farmers of Wisconsin are property
owners and ought to be solidly ranged on
the side of order and sound finance. TaE
WEEKLY WISCONSIN is prepared largely in
the interest and for the instruction and diver.
sion of the agricultural classes. We aim 20
educate our readers, not alone in the duties
of the farm and household, but in their
higher duties as citizens of great republic
"a republic of law and liberty and not of
license and anarchy.
The proprietors have increased the already
large editorial force upon THE WIsCoSsls
by the engagement of HORACE RUBLRg,
one of the ablest and soundest political
writers of the state, who will hereafter be
regular writer for its editorial columns.
This addition to the editorial staff is made
without the loss Of any one of its present
force of assistants to the editor-in-&aief,
who, for over thirty years, has contributed
to every number of this journal
Thus we feel warranted in promising for
the year to come a newspaper unsurpassed
in general interest and sound political
views; and without compeer iii the taste
and neatness of its material production.
