FEATURES OF THE PAPER


The National Tribune makes a special
feature of the history and "reminiscences of
the war for the preservation of the Nation
1t publishes in fact the
Only Genuine History
OF that gigantic struggle, for its history is
not a warped and biased panegyric of some
particular man or men, who are given
credit for everything that succeeded. II is
made up of the testimony of multitude of
witnesses, the plain and unvarnished sto-
ries OF the men in every rank and degree
who did the marching, digging and shoot
ing and carried forward the war through
all its various phases TO glorious success
The great value of The National Tribune's
history is everywhere recognized, and its
files are carefully preserved in every large
library and historical collection in the
country-North and South.
A fascinating story by Col. Thos Knox,
the brilliant writer of popular books, is
now running in the paper.
An entertaining historical romance, by
Frances Williams Fannie Williams), now
appearing, is exciting great interest among
the young folks, with whom Miss Wilson
has always been a great favorite
Back numbers containing these will be
furnished.
Very many distinguished men and wo.
men constantly contribute to its columns.
Ii is favored in this way more than any
other Great Weekly in the country.
John McElroy, who has written so much
and so acceptably for the soldiers, will soon
begin another war story.
