It circulates extensively in the conn ties of Robeson, Richmond, Bladen, Columbus, Cumberland, Brunswick, and in the adjoining coun ties of Marion, Marlboro' and Darlington, in South Carolina. As a Local Newspaper it has no superior. It is one of the few country papers whose Editor and Publisher gives his whole time and attention to its columns. In Politics the ROBESONIAN will strive to pro mote the principles of the Democratic-Conservative party, and is uncompromisingly in favor of White Supremacy. Its Local columns will always teem with the latest and best news, written in a brief, in telligent and business-like manner. - Its editorials will be short and lucid and upon subjects whick. directhv concern onr people. As an advertlaina medium it is much sought after and has a patronage second to na otner country paper. sstaDiisnea in 1870, it has ever since been increasing in influence and popularity until it has reached and occupied the very front rank of North Carolina Journalism.
