This paper is now firmly established. 1t is
independent. 1t comments with freedom upon
every topic, asks and expects no favors, tells
the truth without fear, favor, or affection, and
has been pronounced "a terror to evil-doers. I"
1t has been thought by many that newspaper
could not exist in Washington independent of
the public patronage. The TELEGRAPH will
probably solve this problem-or at least it will
possess no such patronage not voluntarily given,
or obtained by virtue of a right to demand it.
