" THE LEAD IXO AMERICAN XEWS
PA PER T
THE NEW YORK
TRIBUNE
FOR 1880?
9 * .M. * ' V
During the coining Presidential year The Trihmig
will be a more elfcctive agency than ever for telling
the news best worth knowing, aiyl for enforcing
sound polities. From the dajr thie waf* closed it huk
been most anxious for ail end "Of:- sectional strife.
But it saw two years ago, and was the first persist
ently to Proclaim tin- new danger to-the i-country
from the revived alliance of tiie Solid South and
Tammany Hall. Against that dinger it soughtto
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union. Ik'
began by demanding the abandonment of-personal
dislikes, and set the example. It called fOroti etad
to attacks upon each other instead of tiio'tdiemy
and for the heartiest agreement upon whatbVor lit
candidates the majority should- put up against the
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
been turned buck; every doubtful stab "has boon
won, and the omens for National victory Worn- ne\*er
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
Of The Tribune's share in all this, those speak
most enthusiastically who have seen most of the
struggle. It will faithfully portray the, yarning
phases of the campaign now beginning. " ,f lt will
earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, 'Union
and Public Faith may select the man suresV.io yifin,
and surest to make a good President. But ih tfhis
crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the btt>
that could possibly be supported by the Solid South
and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is now spending much labor and
money than ever before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the largext circulation among the bext
peopje. It secured, aud means to retain it, by be-
comlngthe medium of the best thought and the
voice of the best conseience of the time, by keeping
abreast of the highest progress, favoring the frevest
discussions, hearing all sides, appealing always to
tiie best intelligence and the purest morality, and re
fusing to carter to the tastes of the vile or the preju
dices of the ignorant.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
Pile distinctive features of The Tribune are known
to everybody. It gives all the news, it has the
best correspondents, and retains them from year to
year, it is the only paper that maintains a special
telegraphic wire of its own between its office and
I Washington. Its scientific, literary, artistic and re-
I ligious intelligence is the fullest, 'its book reviews
are the best. Its commercial and financial nc—s is
I tiie most exact Its type is the largest; and lis ar
j rangement the most systematic.
THE SEMI-WEEKLY TBIBUN
! is by far the most successful Semi-Weekly in the
I country, having fonr times the circulation of any
I other in New York. It is especially adapted to the
j large class of intelligent, professional or business
j readers too far from New York to depend on our
papers for the daily news, who nevertheless want
the editorials, correspondence, book reviews, scicn
! tide matter, lectures, literary miscellaney, etc,, for
which The Tribune is famous. Like The Weekly
i it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
for binding,
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
remains the great favorite of our substantial country
population, and lias the largest circulation of any
S\ eekly issued from tin- office of a Daily paper lit
| New York, or, so far as we know, in the United
States. It revises and condenses ail the news of the
week into more readable shape, its agricultural de
part men t is more carefully conducted than ever, and
it has always been considered the best, its market
reports are the official standard for the Dairymen's
Association, and have long been recognized author
ity on cattle, grain and general country produce.
There are special departments for the young and for
household interests; the new handiwork department
already extremely popular, gives unusually accurate
and comprehensive instructions in knitting, crochet
ing, and kindrid subjects; while poetry, fiction and
the humors of the day arc all abundantly supplied.
I he verdict of the tens ol thousand old readers who
have returned to it during the past year is that they
lind it better than ever. Increasing patronage and
facilitias enable us to reduce the rates to the lowest
point we have ever touched, and to otier the inost
amazing premiums yet given, as follows;
