SEMI-WEEKLY
NEVADA JOURNAL

The proprietors of the Journal
offer their siucere thanks to the pub
lic OF Nevada and vicinity for the en-
couragement and support which has
been SO literally offered to their enter
prize. The Nevada Journal has now
been in being more than half wear.
and at no period of its existence have
its prospects been better than at pres
ent. The project of creating and
maintaining a newspaper so far up in
the mountains, where few years AGO.
no civilized being had penetrated, and
no voice save that of the savage beast.
or as savage Indian, was heard, is one
beset with many difficulties, and one
which cannot be consummated with
out the hearty concurrence of the pub
lie. The value of good newspaper
is beyond estimate. 1t is the medium
of knowledge of every description, ir''
radiating the light of truth, science
and liberty throug' the sphere of its
action. 4 free anG intelligent press is
one Of the surest means for the i'm
provement and elevation of mankind.
Where the press has been trampled
on, true liberty and true virtue have
always been PROSTATE in the dust. 1t
is far better, however, that no press
should make itself heard than that it
become corrupt and venal, ard losing
its independence, become the tool of
party or adventurers. Then it shine
but to mislead, and becomes the great
est curse in the community in which
it is published.
The proprietors of the Jounal
think they have not mis>estimated the
temper or the intelligence of the Ne
vada public They believe press
that will tearlessly and boldly speak
the truth is the one desired, and in
pursuing such course, they have not
lacked substantial proof on the point.
1t is our aim to make the Journal
an acceptable business, news, and fam
lily sheet, with good matter, original
and selected, inculcatng a correct
moral tone, and independent in all
matters OF public interest and contro-
versy.
The terms for the Semi WeekW
