TIE A.TLAITA BAIL’S IEEALD. VOL. 1. ATLANTA, GAU SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1873. NO. 29 L The Daily Herald. TO ADVERTISERS. THE ATLANTA DAILY HERALD HAS THE LARGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY PAPER PUBLISHED IN THIS ^^-tECTlON OF GEORGIA. TO OITR MACOM Sl'BSCRIBKRS. It is with pleasure that wo announce a change in the delivery of oar paper in Macon. For some time we have had complaints from our subscribers in that city that it is a great inconvenience to them to have to wait for their Heralds antil the whole Northern mail is distributed; that event frequently not oc- tuiring until 10 or 11 o’clock. Our subscription list is rapidly increasing, a^d hence one of the proprietors will go to l^icou tc-night and hire a number of good anl reliable boys, and put them on AS SPECIAL CARRIER 4 fot the Herald in Macon, so that our readers will have the Daily Herald at their break- fa$ tables. We will also engage a good cor respondent to send us a daily report of intyortant items occurring in and around the city by mail and telegraph. (Ve hoje to make the Herald a welcome viator in five hundred Macon homes before mtny days. T#E HERALD SPECIAL MAIL TRAIN OS THE MACON AND WESTERN RAILROAD. A hint three weeks ago the Herald startled its friends, and astounded its enemies, by chartering a special mail train and putting it upon the West Point Koad,m order to get tie Herald to its readers at the proper time, tie schedule having been so changed as to tfrow it behindhand. /The Constitution in characteristic spirit ridi- iled the idea. When the schedule on the V T est Point road was changed so as to suit the Jerald's necessities, we discontinued the [train and published the following extract in /an editorial of the —th of July. We wish one thing distinctly understock, and that is, that ice shall not allow anything, not even the changes of every railroad schedule at once, to prevent us from serving our subscribers xcilh the Herald at the proper time. "We may say that ice now have under advisement a reform in the delivery of oar mails on another road which will startle oar cotemysn'ttries more than our special train did. In accordance with this promise, made with full light before us, we have closed a trade with Col. W. W. Wadley, of the Central Railroad, chartering an engine for $2,000 per month, which will be put upon the Macon and Western Railroad on next Monday night (at which time the night mail train on that road will be discontinued,) and run regularly until the schedule is so adjusted os to suit our mail arrangements. The Herald makes no boast ia this matter. It is merely working out a carefully studied, calm and hopeful plan. We determined long ago, when we had neither money nor influ ence, to make the Herald the leading paper in Atlanta. Whether wo .have snccceded or not, the public may decide. Onr special train will leave Atlanta on Tues day morning (and every morning thereafter), at about 1:30, connecting with the south bound tiains from Macon. In this way the Herald will go to Southwestern Georgia on the same train with the Macon papers. In conclusion, we bespeak for onr enter prise a hearty support on the lines which are especially benefited, and from the public gen erally. The reading public is ceitainly in debted to the Herald for a tremendous ad vance and progress in Atlanta journalism. To that public wo appeal with confidence. CUBA. Key We*t, August 1, 1873.
