EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT.
The editors of this paper design to spare nci
ther labor nor pains to make it, no, only
readable, but a reliable and useful paper We
propose to devote it to the interests OF the PEG
pie, and not to the interests of spectators and
partizans; and, doing this we must depend
upon the people for support, and it is for them
to say whether such paper shall be sustained.
One of our leading objects at present will be
to secure for the State better currency. In
this effort we can expect no sympathy from
bankers, aud we fear, but little from politi-
| clans. and we look to the masses for support
We hope to make the Argus d Democrat infs-
rior to no paper i'll the State in the quantity
and value of its or,gina2 matter We have paid
no little attention to economical and govern
mental SCIENCE and shall endeavor to write ar
ticles which are the result of study and re-
search, which cost Us labor to produce and
which Will be of lasting service to our readers
if they viii ponder them well.
Our eight page weekly will contain these ar
ticles as they appear in the dailes, with largo
amount of Geographic and other news, and
miscellaneous matter, review of the markets,
&c. &c. We hope, in short, to make it such
paper as will promote the true Interests OF
farmers and business men. In politics it viii
be independent and outspoken upon all meas
affecting the interests of the State or Nation,
approving what we conceive to be right, and
exposing and condewning what we believe to
be wrong, and we hope to be able at all times
to give reason for every position We assume.
