Nearly four years ago the Minnesota Weekly
Times came before the public, and from that
period to the present it has been battling for
the cause of freedom and the rights of man.,
regardless of the ties of party OF the sneers and
iibes of partizan leaders, By pursuing con-
sistent and straightforward career by persist
ent devotion to principles, it has won its way
to public favor, and notwithstanding it is the
youngest of the city press, it has attained a
very large and rapidly increasing circulation.
This has been accomplished, not by a system
of self-laudation, but by the spontaneous pat
ronage of its friends throughout Minnesota and
the Eastern States
The Times has ever advocated and will con-
tinue to advocate, the cause OF the people, and
in doing SO it has advocated the cause of the
great Republican party whose principles it has
warmly espoused and will defend to the best
of its ability 1t never has and never will pam
der to the vices of the vicious, and never finch
es from graphing with error wherever it exists.
1t believes in al honest utterance of the truth
in adhering to right, Justice and temperance
= i'll an outspoken, manly condemnation of
wrong in just appreciation of the wants of
the honest settler, to whom home should be
guaranteed by Congress, and in the develop
ment of all those resources which are caleulat-
ed to place us first among the States of this
great confederacv.
Many new features will be added to the
TINES in the course of the wear 1855 We shall
spare no pains to procure the latest and most
reliable news both at home and from abroad !;

STAY Law.

In approving this bill, Governor RICH
ARDsos semitic the Council the following
communication:
After careful examination of the law,
l have signed and approved a bill to ameng
chapter I'd of the laws of 1857, relatnd
TO District Courts. The power of the Le-
gislature to decide everything in refer
ence to the remedy on contracts is un-
doubted, and | depart from the usual
course in approving bills in this case,
and state the reasons why | Lave approx
ed of this act, er
The power of the Legislature to enact
sections l, 2 and 3 is undopbled.
If section A applied 10 past contracts by
positive enactment, or clear legal iIaph.
cation, could not approve it, because il
would impair the validity Of contracts
and thus be in violation of the Constitu
ton of the United States. As that sec.
ton, in my judgment, does not apply Il
past contracts, and having no doubt abou
the power Of the Legislature to enact suct
a law to apply to future contracts, | have
this day signed and approved this bill.
