THE LEADING NEVSPAPER I THE NORTEVEST. . 'THE PAPER FOR THE FARMER, MECHANIC, MANUFACTURER, MERCHANT, BANKER, PROFESSIONAL MAN, AND THE FIRESIDE. PROSPECTUS FOR 1874, Tho coming yoar promises to be the most eventfulin a political sense that we have seen sinco the close ot tho war, The questions which have cngrossed and divided the public mind during the past twenty years are rapidly passing away, and wo find growing up in difforont parts of tho country & party called by vari- ous namoes---in California the Inde- pendent party, in Iown the Anti~ Monopoly party, in Wisconsin theo Reform party, in Illincis the Farmers’ Movoment---having a com- mon purpose and inspiration, and cxhibiting a strength which proves that it answers one of the chief do- mands of the hour. The CEICAGO TRIBUNE will givo a large sharo of its attontion to this NEW MAN- IFESTATION OF PUBLIC SENTI- MENT, It holds: 1st. That the old party orgamza- tions aro essontially corrupt and fraudulent. Having no longer any principles to carry into eflect, thoy have become mero business entor- prises, making a show of opposition to each other, but roally sharing in the proceeds of profligate and dis- lonest legislation. To suppose that any healthful reform can flow from the pretended eflorts of these worn- out and demoralized partnerships is altogether vain and illusory. 2d. That the tariff system now in vogue is & cunning device to rob the many for the benefit of the fow, end that its effect is to cause farm pro- ducts to exchange for about one-half tho quantity of foreign or ‘‘pro- tocted” goods they would otherwise buy. 8d. That railronds cennot exaot more than a fair rate of interest on the capital actually invested in them, and that when, in addition to this, they claim dividends on watered stock and freaudulent bonds, the State may rightfully intorfero for the protection of' the people ; thatunjust discriminations between different. localities are in violation of law and should be prohibited. 4th. That subsidies or bounties of money, land, or public credit, to railway, steamship, or other corpo- rations, are flagrant abuses of the powors of governmont, fraught with the gravest dengers to the people, and tending to promote corruption, extravagance, speculation, and financial disaster. The genoral character of THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is too well ostablished to need recapitulation, It is always independent and fenr- less in tho expression of its views. In its news department it is second to no paper in the United Stntos. The Weokly Edition contains a care- fully proparod summary of the news of the weck, brought down to tho hour of going to press. Titerary, political, financial, so« cial, and agricultural topics will constitute, as horetofore, leading features of the Wookly Edition, and no pains will be spared to increase its attractiveness in those depart. meonts. Its markot reports aroc un surpassed, embracing ell the infor- mation which farmers require for tho intelligont transaction of busi. ness, both a8 sollors and buyors. THE WBEEKLY TRIBUNE is a large eight-page sheet, of tho same gize as the Daily Tribuno, consisting of flfty-six columns of closely- printod mattor, and, es a family nowspapor and in its genoral malke- up, is unsurpassed by any papor in tho land.
