• 'ERE BEST PEOPLE
, •
During the past 'year the New-Yark Tribune '
reached the largest circulation it ever * Mislead.
with the single exception of s short period In the
lint Lincoln campaign. It is a larger circulation.
sag more widelyillstrituded over the whole country
than any ever enjoyed by any other newspaper in
the United Stater. This fact may In takes as the
,verdict of the American petple on The Tribune's
political force. its fidelity to sound principles, and
its merits as a newspaper.
Pot 1851. The Tribune will try to deism imaally • •
well of the public. What and how =welt it AM tee
the success of General Garfield it Is content to let
earnest Republican tell. It now hopes to give to
his Administration • discriminating. support as
effective as Its efforts for hii election.
The Tribune 'will labor for, and it tenth:lenity
expects the Incoutbig AeoallastrsUon to
a free and fair suffrage, Southend X ' sound
money, protection to' Home Industry, judicious
liberality In Internal Improvements, sad a Civil
Servilee conducted on burin,* principles. on the ,
theory of elevating; not of Ignoring or degrading •
Every citizen who helped to bring la this Ad
mlnlstrntlon should watch Its course. The 'events
to be recorded In The Tribune for list will there
fore have a peculiar Interest. , The year promises
besides to show whether - the South will stiff siert
flee everything to solidity; and whether the Demo.
antic party, after twentg years of disloyalty and .
defeat, will dissolve or reform. Abroad it will
show whether England can compose Ireland ;
whether the Itenoblicin Trance, without the sup
port of the leaders who established it, can stand
alone; whether the Turk can longer pollute Europe.
In Science It promises such Fanatical triumphs as
the use of electricity for gas. new modest)! heating.
and new loans of power In place of steam. In ,
Literature and Art .1t offers the very Sower of oar,
nineteenth century development ; in • Religioo, a
ameentration qt force, and union of organisation*
on simpler creeds sad better work. ,
tio Intelligent man will be willing to live through
the year without reading of these things; and be
will he wise to look for them In the journal which.
has long enjoyed the dlstinctiou of the largest cir
culation among the best people. This position The
Tribune secured and means to retain by becoming
the medium of the hest thought and the voice of
the best consclenal of the time; by keeping abreast
ofthe highest prtigress. favoring the freest discus- ••
don, hearing all sides, appealing aLways to tie best
intelligence arid the purest morality, sod refusing ,
to ester to the tastes of the vile, or the prejudices
of the Ignorant. -
The well-known special features of The Tribune
will be sedulously maintained: Its Agricultural
Department will remain the fullest and best.. 'The
Household and the Young Yolks' Departments, the
literary, scientific and religious features, the
standard market reports, will all be kept up, and,
as opportunity offers, extended.
