=THE TRIBUNE, New York.=
New-York Tribune
1871. DAILY, SEMI-WEEKLY AND WEEKLY. 1871.
=THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE.=
=The Paper of the People.=
THE TRIBUNE aims to be pre-eminently a _News_-paper. Its
correspondents traverse every State, are present on every important
battle-field, are early advised of every notable Cabinet decision,
observe the proceedings of Congress, of Legislatures, and of
Conventions, and report to us by telegraph all that seems of general
interest. We have paid for one day's momentous advices from Europe by
Cable far more that our entire receipts for the issue in which those
advises reached our readers. If lavish outlay, unsleeping vigilance, and
unbounded faith in the liberality and discernment of the reading public,
will enable us to make a journal which has no superior in the accuracy,
variety, and freshness of its contents, THE TRIBUNE shall be
such a journal.
