Brenham Paper Celebrates Growth and Democratic Principles

The Brenham Banner notes its expansion to a thirty two column format as the county’s largest paper and claims the only English language newspaper. It positions itself as a friend of the poor, advocates immigration, industrial growth, and railroad expansion, and pledges Democratic allegiance while criticizing government extravagance and calling for fiscal restraint. It recalls its 20 years in Brenham since 1853 and commits to continued support and public patronage.
