PROPOSALS,
III For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York city, under the ulle OF Tho NEW YORK TINES
AND COMMERCIAL lNrELLIGENCER, to be
devoted to Politics, News and Commercial Intelli-
geEce,
The well known fact that the Republicans OF this city
destitute OF organ to pronnlgae their opinions,
and advocate their principles 10 connection with the De-
mocralc Press OF the interior, has been subject Of
Ilcrated complaint and regret. Circumstances Of ia
yorable nature consprng measures have been adopted
TO commence the publication Of the Times and Com
mereial Inieihgeneer upon footing calculated to en-
sure It's independence and permanency.
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Ieigeneer will be strictly Democratic Republican i
will adhere to the principles OF the party which brought
into existence, and sustained the late administration II
will labor define the ancient land marks and to main
tain IN their prime vgor the ancient usages OF the party
which. whilst they observed, rendered invnci-
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional adminstra-
ton Of public affairs, at the time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare and
happiness Of the people.
In marking out this line, which both duty and ncli
nation will prompt opursue, we desire to be under
stood as concevng that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF the
present general administration, form part OF the Re-
publican creed of binding influence, but ques-
tons of expedency rest upon debaeable ground and
may be opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment. This paper will therefore be found
opposition to the untred eTpedisnts Of the day The
country needs repose from the agitaons demsgogues
and empires. II is time that period Of depression
exampled in its DURATION and in its disastrous
quences should give way to the return Of confidence
and the resumption Of the ordinary pursuits Of trade and
industry. If the measures OF the government shall be
found at variance with the suggestions OF sound policy
ere brought into collision with public sentiment, every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment. To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take, in sense, the indications Of the public will
and to cmbody the scattered rays OF that will in SEN
sble and tangible form, will be deemed to come within
the legitimate province OF our Journal, and 70 compose
prominent objects in the prosecution Of our design, OF
great importance and interest to every class Of the COM
munily. -r"
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards its oppo
nents in false postona position which exposes to
eminent hazards which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, its threatened prostraton
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever ap
pretended from the ascendency OF federal mlsrule.
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egions in the short space OF eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications OF Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, in states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard II as
either safe, just honorable to deviae further from
the republican track marked by the footsteps Of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy we feel impeed to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Iniclh-
geneer will therefore endeaycr to expunge the heresies
which have been interpoated into our creed, ana 10
recty the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause OF democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there Is no power whilst u re-
mains pure, that divorce our affections or fervor
from it. But from the spurious faith oil the Loco-Foeos
and destructves sought to be engaited upon our prn
cipes and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
nercial Iategcnccr will labor to restore the Democra-
ANITA
its broken and dsprted legions-to rebuild its crumb-
ling temples, and re-establish its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourshing and predominant re-
ecng the moral influence Of this great republic abroad,
ard protecting the interests OF its numerous people at
home We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this contamination. II our labors shall
prove fruess our admontions shall not be wanting.
We will make one more attempt to put the good snip
before the wind and to save her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight If afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dissppont the hopes Of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, heaven
and Garth shall ,citness thai sre are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Intelligeneer, will re-,
cognze the organization OF the Republican Party in this
CITY as it was effected at the meeting OF the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd of January, 1898. The
utions and address adopted that OCCASION will be
referred to consonan to Republican principles and
adapted to the present crisis in our public and political
affairs. .',
