ton Of those principles which wers pro-
mulgated by our immortal Washington
And to the American party, and the Amer
lean party alone do We Look ior the 'e;sIi-
za,ion Of these hopes.
| Though it be true that the American
party has most nobly sustained its organ
Eization, as well as its reputation during
the recent State elections, yet neverihe-
less it Is not true that it has sustained H.
self without the aid of either direct or in
direct agencies. We have assurances
thrown before our eyes every day that
indirect agencies have done much for US
as party. The course pursued by our
political adversaries is all indirect agency
for the good Of the American party; and
what we term direct agency-as far a.
such agency may be applicable to old
party hacks, and their tollewers-is, the
pouer of exposure, aud to accomplish this
what methods, what procedure is TO be
adopted and perseverngly pursued! We
know Of but enc resort, and that is
well tablished press-d press @hich Is
for US and not against us. We advocate
the publication OF as as many true Amer
lean journals as can be well sustained.
They are needed BY the American party
and the members Of the party should give
such publcati ms hearty welcome. l he
PRONUNCIATION aud advocacy right Prln.
cipes is what the American party de.
manI.
The exposure of old party leaders
OF old party corrup,ons as heretofore en-
acted upon Baltimore platforms is what
the American party is bound to do, and
to accomplish this, The party must suppor.
press of It's own. The press of the
old and defunct parties is continually
railing and lying about the new party or
ganization. The Daily Advertiser OF
this city fully shows this statement to be
true. For the last week this 'daily has
harped itself nearly OIL, Of existence,
simply because committee Of our leg
stature has visited a sacred institution"
known BY al. men interested as Catho-
lie Convent, But the DAILY Bee" Of
this city, is fully equal 10 the task Of
showing the false position OF the "Ad-
vertiser.' Thus we see in this single
instance the necessity Of an American
press. Had the American party in this
city been without press, the false state
meu,s of the advertiser" would have
zone forth without single contradiction.
The Bee has performed It's duty well, in
this instance, as it ever has done hereto
fore, and the American party Will see to
ii that it receives a generous support.
From what we have said above, we
hope that the reader, whomsoever he
may be, will be led to inquire oil himself
personally, what press he is supporlng'
If he be OF the American party, is he
supporting the right press-a press
which his own convictions will sustain!
If the reaier resides in the good old
County Of Hancock, does he assist, as
far at least as his subscription may go,
to the support and mantance of an A.
merlcan publication. We say to the
good citizens of Ellsworth and the ci,.
zens of Hancock county generally sup
port a true. american" paper in your
vicinity. Support, neither by needful
aid or countenance, a paper OF douotlul
pre,entions. The american party Of
massachusetts, is dettrmiaed to support
and maintain political press Of its omn
it is as equally determined not to as.
sist in the support Of any other. The
motto is--let the American party sus
tain its own press-opposttlon parties
must do likewise.
