Ii will oppose arbitrary and unjust legislation, Oh
such legislation is calculated to benefit lordlIns
few at the expense ofthe people as great whole.
II will oppose the establishment OF q MONEY MA
CHINE in the shape Of United States Bank. Past
experience has fully taught the danger of such an In
suton, and revealed its coIrupting and demorazine
tendency. 1t will support, however, any scheme ol
finance which will secure the General Government
entire control Of its funds, TO carry on It's operations
without restraint, subject TO such regulations as may
prevent its msapplication by Government officers
whether that scheme of finance be denomlnated The
Exchequer," independent Treasury" or Fiscal

tally democratic and intended TO benefit the entire
American People-whe, at the same time, it will not
hesitate to expose all abuses OF trust and power whe
ther committed by the Chief Executive Of the natlen
or any other servant Of the People.
Ii will fully reveal the workings and nrlgues OF
corrupt and selfish politicians especially when
they found endeavoring TO build up splendid Go
vernment, through the aid Of an irresponsible money
power, upon foundation Of Clay, without regard TO
the purity Of the principles upon which the Republic
was originally established
In regard to the candidate for the next Presidency
is somewhat premature to declare any particular per-
sonai preference, especially when so many good end
sterling Democrats named in connection with that
Office The editor, however believes that the sober
second thought OF the People is wrong, but al
o(T,c ho, 10 ,la thn f.f

The paper will recognise the efficiency of Party
ganizalon, but will hesitate canvass with all
fairness and candor the prete of all candidates
for office prior TO the regular nominations by ma
joriy Of the People, through their delegates other
wise.
In short The editor will labor zeaousy TO advance
the moral and political happiness of the whole People,
aDdto carry out as far may be practicable the doc
tnnes of the Fathers Of Democracy, as summed up
in the simple phrase, Equal and exact justice to all
men"
