The prominent feature of the paper VIII be POLITE
cAK Ii Will battle zealousy for sound Republican
Democracy with a view to the greatest good Of the
greatest number" or rae AMERICAN PEOPLE.
The world is indeed governed too much, and IL
is equally true that power is constantly stealing from
the many TO the few" The Editor will therefore
contend fn little government possible that little
emanstng from and controlled by the People, and
uniform in its application to ALL
II will advocate the retention of as much individual
Liberty is consistent with the secury of each mem
Der of the Republican Coniederacy.
1t will respect the PERSONS the rights the property
and the preludlces of all.
Ii will acknowledge the superiority of mental pow
er, over thai of money and corporate privileges.
II will oppose arbitrary and unjust legislation, or
such legislation is calculated To benefit lorolIng
few at the expense ofthe people as great whole,
1t will oppose the establishment of MONEY Ma
CHINE in the shape of a United States Bank. Past
experience has fully taught the danger of such in
suion, and revealed its conuPtng and demoralzing
tendency. l, will support, however, any scheme of
finance which will secure the General Government
entire control of its funds, to carry its operations
without restraint, subject to such regulations as may
prevent its misapplicauon by Government officers
whether that scheme of finance be denominated The
Exchequer," "lnJependent Treasury" or Fiscal
Agent"
= Ii will s,renuousy oppose all HIdH TARIFF regula-

Country, VIII CHI should be indelibly impressed upon
the heart Of everv true American citizen.
The paper will extend cordial support to the pre-
sent National Administration in all measures essen
italy democratic and intended TO benefit the entire
American Peope-whIlc, 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 natieD
or any other servant Of the People.
1t will fully reveal the workings and intrgues Of
corrupt and selfish politicians, more especially when
they found endeavoring to build up splendid Go
vcrnment, through the aid of an irresponsible money
power, upon foundation of Clay, without regard to
the purity Of the principles upon which the Republic
originally established
In regard to the candidate for the next Presidency
is somewhat premature to declare any particular per-
sonal preference, especially when SO many good and
sterling Democrats named in connection with that
Office. The editor, however believes that the sober
second thought of the People is wrong but al
ways efficient" and he is willing to abide the fulfil!
ment Of the sentiment in due time and act in accord
ance Herewith.

ganiza'ion but will not hesitate to canvass with all
fairness and candor the petensions of all candidates
for office prior to the regular nominations by ma

the moral and political happiness of the whole People,
