which have probably never been imr-

of two years , On Fob. of HJ80 , pro

ng that Sydney Shores , A farmer age *

ho llSyear-old daughter of his deceased

: eiemony was performed by the Ilev
Hachurias Uowen , a Methodist Upisco

that time there were threats of lynch

Shores , however , who is an oldsoldie

After the man had lived with th
child as his wife for four days th
county authorities took cognizance c

was committed to jail in default u

was further aggravated bv the fac
that his wife , who was the widow c

county court , convicted of misdc

acquitted on the ground that ho ha

JV. LIBERAL OFFER.
For-iho past two years the publisi
era of this paper have given to tli
subscribers of THE WJHJELY BEK tli
-best liuo of premiums ao inducoineni
/to subscription which have over boo
.offered by any nowspaporan the com
tiy. The plan has proved a SUCCOBI
'It has givdn universal satrkifaction i
tiho patrons of the paper , aud has ii
creased the subscription list to a di
gnoo far above the expectations of ii
publishers.
Many patrons of TUB DAJCY Bt
have asked why wo do not aflbr thei
the eamo inducements held out to sul
scribes of ( CKK WEEKLY BEE. Jn r

following offer : Each subscriber I
TJIK DAUY , BEE who pays his arrea

Tin : DAILY BKE are now in arroart
and if by an extension of the cam
plan wo can induce them to pay tli
amount duo us , wo can well afford t
nuke thin liberal offer. By thi
means wo hope to still further increas
the large list of THE DAILY BEE , an
having established the propaymon
system wo propose to maintain it
as wo are doing with our Weekly edi

Two years ago the publishers of TUB
UE devised a scheme for collecting
> ack pay from delinquent subscribers ,
ccuring renewals and extending the
iirculation of this paper by a distri-
) iition of valuable premiums. The
access of thidt experiment , both in
the collection ofback pay and increase
f prepaid subscribers was so encour
aging that thu publishers ventured
ipon the same system of premium dis
tribution * on a moro extensive scale
. \st year. It was demonstrated thai
wo eouldbelter afford to distribute the
nonoy usually paid to agents , local
collectors and attorneys , directly tc
our patrons by offering them extra
ordinary inducements to square no
counts and pi opay for anot nor year ,
lly this method wo have succeeded ii
two years in mmdrupllng the circuhv
tion of Tin : WIIKKLY BEK and extend
ing its influence far beyond tin
boundaries of this state.
During the first your only a portioi
of the articles distributed worn pro
cured in exchangee for advertising
When the marked increase in circula
tiou bccamo known to merchants am
manufacturers last year they willingly
placed their machinery and mcrclmn
( life at our disposal in p lying for ad
vertisinj ; . That enabled us to di
what seemed incredible- namely , fur
nish a metropolitan weekly for twc
dollars a year and give our subswibon
premiums that aggregated in \ aim
§ 20,000. And yet it was a paying in
vestment for us , and gave genera
satisfaction to our patrons.
What grow out ot a desire to colloe
back pay has developed into a nev
and practical idea. Wo have discov
crod that we can afford to make ou :
subscribers sharers in the income o
the paper from advertising. In othei
words wo can afford to divide the ad
vertising patronage of the paper will
its subscribers , inasmuch as the incomi
from advertising grows with the in
creased circulation. Advertising spaci
in THE BEE that was worth ono him
drod dollars five years ago will com
madd ono thousand dollars to-day
This fall moro goods and machinery
have been offered us in exchange fu
advertising than wo could accept ii
vfow of the limited space wo dovoti
for that purpose. What wo have con
tractcd for makes the grandest i
most varied list that has ever boci
offered for distribution by any news
paper , and that too without paying ;
dollar in money. The only outlay ii
cash wo expect , to incur in connoctim
with those premiums will bo for postage
ago and .oxprcssago. This explain
exactly how wo procure our premium
, ind why wo can give away property ese
so much value.
All the premiums in our liet ar
worth at retail just what wo ropresen
them. In contracting with munufac
turers and wholesale dealers wo accep
them only at wholesale rates , bu
that docs not lessen their value t
those who receive them
THE BEE has for years stood in th
front rank of newspapers west of th
Mississippi , and to-day circulate
more extensively than any paper wea
of'Chicago and north of St. Louis.
largo number of eastern people wh
dcsiro to procure a far western pappi
with a view of' acquiring reliable in
formation about the -resources and dc
velopment of the country west of th
Missouri will doubtless avail themselves
solves of the opportunity now offore
them. Having for moro than tonycai
been under ono management pursuin
a course that has established for it pul
lie confidence at homo and a wid
reputation abroad , THE BEE could m
afford to engage in any undortakm
that was -conducted fairly and hoi
cstly. The distribution in 1880 .an
1881 gave general satisfaction to on
subscribers. The coming distributio
will bo made in the same impartii
manner , by a .committee whom th
subscribers ptusont may select froi
their own number , and -in nuch mainer
nor as they tiiink fair and equitabh
Last year all the premiums gave goc
satisfaction , excepting some engnu
ings which were not appreciated. Thi
year no engravings , maps or picture
have been plaood among the proir
iums.
Our old patrous need no assuranc
.from us of the reliability audstabilit
of THE BEE , nor do wo need to infon
them that the principles it tdvocatei
and the fearless defense it cnako i
behalf of the producers , makes it a
.most indisponsible to the induatrii
.classes of the great west.
.No intelligent norson would oxpei
that every subscriber will receive
$050 threshing machine , a $500 p
ami , a ? . ' ! 00 harvester , or a $150 01
gan , but all have an equal chance i
the distribution.
Each subscriber that pays up Ms ai
rears and repays another year , an
every now subscriber that remits pr <
payment for one year , will rcceiv-o
premium worth at least One Dollar i
retail. As a matter of fact , TJI
OMAHL WEEKLY BEE ia worth tli
subscription price , Two Dollars
year , tc every faamer ; mechanic c
merchant. Without boasting , wo ai
ucrt that no weekly paper , east c
west , can compare with it in variot
and choioo selections , general nowi
intoruating correspondence , and nether
other paper in America contains i
much far western news , ranging froi
the Pacific coast to the Mississipi
river. With the proof of good fait
and honest dealing before them in tl
numerous acknowledgments wo pul
Huh , wo can Hafoly enter upon our 01
lurged undertaking of this year , coi
