ANNOUNCEMENT.

During the next five months, the period
of the presidential campaign. we will
furnish the TRANSCRIPT to new subscri-
bers for FIFTY CENTS in advance, This
price is very low and within the reach Of
all. We are induced to make so low an
offer BY the following considerations:
First, the TRANSCRIPT is the only Re-
publican paper in the county, and we
want it in the hands Of every Republican,
1t advocates no communlstic schemes,
and is always in favor of honest money,
having no sympathy with those who
would cheat rich and poor by an inflated
rag baby currency.
Second, the TRANSCRIPT, while advo.
eating Republican principles, will tell
the exact truth so far as we know about
public men and their careers. We are
Republican, but not yet sufficiently Sar-
tisan to prostitute our paper to the inter.
ests of any man and give our readers
false information, or suppress what they
should know. We shall aim to give all
parties and measures just estimate, and
to expose any corruption of which we
may know. For this reason every man
in the county should read it, who wishes
information reliable and pointed.
, Thirdly, We visit our paper to be in the
hands of all Democrats that they may get
a discussion of Republican principles,
which is not emblttered by vituperation
and abuse. We do not wish to proselyte,
and hope to shake no ones honest convic.
tons; but we do wish to have fair hear
ing and shall be satisfied with the deci-
sion.
Lastly, Because we have the best local
paper in the county, and we want every
body, as we'll as our regular readers to
know it. Our locals are pointed, numer-
Gus and fresh, furnishing just what each
one wishes to know every week. Our
circulation is large and increasing; and
with every increase comes an additional
means Of securing news. T.
Send IN your fifty cents aud try the
TRANSCRIPT five months. You will get
true Repblicanism, truth and candor, and
all the news that the county affords.
What more do you want?
