and for the heartiest agreement upon whatever lit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state has been
won, and the omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNES POSITION.
OF The Tribune's share in all this, those speak
most enthusiastically who have seen most of the
struggle. 1t will faithfully portray the warming
phases of the campaign now beginning. 1t will
and Public Faith may select the surest to win,
and surest to make a good President. But in this
crisis 1T can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the best
that could possibly be supported by the Solid South
and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is spending much labo and
money than ever before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the largest circulation among the best
people. 1t secured, and means to retain il by be
coming the medium of the best thought and the
voice of the best conscience of the time, by keeping
abreast of the highest progress favorng the freezes
discussions, hearing all Sides appealing always to
the best intelligence and the purest morality, and
fusng to carter to the tastes of the vile or the preu
dices of the ignorant.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are known
to everybody. 1t gives all the news. 1t has the
best correspondents, and retains them from year to
year, 1t is the only paper that maintains a special
telegraphc wire of its own between its office and
Washington Its scientific literary, artistic and re-
igious intelligence is the fullest. Its book reviews
are the best. It's commercial and financial is
the most exact Its type is the largest and It's
rangement the most systematic.

THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUN

is by far the most successful Semi Weekly in the
country, having tonr times the circulation of any
other in New York 1t is especially adapted to the
large class of intelligent, professional or business
readers too far from New York to depend on our
papers for the daily news, who nevertheless want
the editorials correspondence, book reviews, scicn-
ttic matter lectures, literary mscellaney etc., for
which The Tribune is famous. Like The Weekly
it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
for binding

Der rs, 1878, pursuant to the call of H.
Meyer, Esq, County Superintendent, for
the purpose OF considering the propriety
OF taking measures to secure uniformity

taken, over fifty directors being present
and nearly all the district in the county
