Advertise. Every business man in Day
ton who believes in the correctness of Demo.
cratic principles, should feel it his duty to Ad-
vertise in the Empire. The Importance Of
having Democratic Daily in the City, is not
more apparent than the duty Of sustaining it,
and while we thank the many good friends
who are already assisting us in this way, we
submit to others the prOPriety of doing like
wise. 1t is our strong desire to improve the
Empire in appearance, and enhance its inter.
est and usefulness, aud to do this, We only ask
the patronage to justify it There are good
days coming for the DemocrAcy--it cannot
be otherwise-days Of prosperity as we'll aS
honor--days when the hounds who now per
seoute and prescribe them for their opinions,
will hunt their holes in humiliation and dis
grace. Yet little longer, and these things
will come to pass.
Meantime, let US stand squArely and proud
ly up TO principle, and TO ono another.
