A PAPER RnR THE pRapln


TINE undersigned proposes to publish at tho seat Of
4 government Of pennsylyani an Inde pendent De-
mocratc weekly newspaper under the above title
and, in announcing this purpose, deem IL proper
to refer briefly TO fow OF the general principles which
shall govern our course
Tho Scripture teaches that g cd created man in his
own image, and that NIL mon are consequently broth
rem The Declaration of Independence recogn SOS
this truth when 1t declares that a men are created
equal and that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain inaenable rights, among which lilo
liberty and tho pursuit Of happiness"
We believe in the Constitution Of tho United States
which declares its purpose to be Ito form more per-
feet union establish justice insure domestic tranquil
ity, promote the general welfare and the bos
sings of liberty" and hold that all its provisions
should be construed in accordance with this general
purpose.
This was the position and purpose of the sa, cs Of
tho Revelation, and we, their descendants, should la
Dor to socnre tho blessings ofindvidual liberty and
national liberty.
We believe in Dcmocracy--a government by tho
People and for tho Pooplein the Democracy Of free
thought FREQ speech, free conscience free labor, and
free men--in tho Democracy which loathos OpproS
son and which docs not bend its back to sustain tho
interests Of Class, however powerful imposing its
numbers or position. Democracy which does this,
which despscs tho People, undertakes their intc
gence, dsregars their opinions and abuses their
fdence, we took upon ms protcnce and sham. III
man is to be considered merely rs stall fed animal,
to be satisfied when filled with creature comforts then
will free citizens and free laborers be considered as
a nuisance and IN membranes; but not whea they
are regarded rs the lifc-blood Of the Republic Wo
have been told that such paper rs we propose to
print cannot live in tho atmosphere Of harrisburg,
that the politicians OF Pennsyva nia have debauch
ed her public sentiment to crush out oil regard for
Justice, Humanity and tho Rights Of Man pro-
claimed in tho Declaration of Independence; but we
do not believe this Every friend of freedom md de-
mocracy has personal interest in the reputation Of
the Commonwealth, and we trust every friend of the
will do his part to sustain The FREE CITIZEN
and refute this SANDER on the Keystone State.
