THE WISCON SIN.
Annual Announcement.

The proprietors of THE WISCONSIN,
in masking their annual announcement
for 1879, feel impelled to return their thanks
for the marked increase in the list of their
readers for 1878. Encouraged by this evi-
dent approval of the character and course
of their journal in the past, they have deter
minesl to: add new features to its attractive
ness, both as a family and as a political
newspaper. THE WISCONSIN now has a
larger and more widespread circulation than
ever before since it was founded. There is
scarcely postoffice 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 to be able to say in our
next, announcement, if Providence shall
spare us, that we have ut last footing at
every place in this broad commonwealth
whera the government delivers its mails.
To do this viii require but a little effort on
the part Of postmasters where our paper is
not Eow received.
Last year we appealed for the first time in
over thirty years to our readers TO assist
usin ihe extension of the circulation Of THE
WISCONSIN. The response was very graft
fyingand satisfactory. We again ask our
readers to make it point to try and induce
some nei2hbor to add their subscription to
their OWE, and thus remit $500 instead of
the usual b1.50. Such a course on the part
of ali of our subscribers would double our
list Of readers, and double our power Of
usefulness.
The proprietors of The WISCONSIN are not
wontto allude to partisan topics in their
Ruf hal
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
iy, discoptented and revolutionary elements
will lie swept into power in the State and
Nation. If they do succeed on the avowed
princlplee of their leaders, our people will
live over again the terrible scenes Of loss,
distress ard riot Of 1877. Possibly general
anarchy will result from an attempt to di.
vide tle property of The thrifty and provi.
dent amoGg the lazy and worthless.
The farmers of Wisconsin are property
owners a0d ought to be solidly ranged ON
the side OF order and sound finance. THE
WEEKLY WISCONSIN is prepared largely in
the interest and for the instruction and diver
sion OF the agricultural classes. We aim to
educate oGT readers, not alone in the duties
of the fa4m 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 proptietors have increased the already
large editorial force upon THE WISCONSIN,
by thd engagement OF HORACE RUBLKR,
one Of the ablest and seundest political
writers of Che state, who viii hereafter be a
regular writer for its editorial columns.
This addition to the editorial staff is made
without tho loss Of any one of its present
force Of assistants to the editor-in-chief,
who, for over thirty years, has contributed
10 every number OF this journal.
Thus we Iael warranted in promising for
the year to come a newspaper unsurpassed
in general interest and sound political
views; and without a compeer in the taste
and neatneas Of its material production.
