During the existence of the Wing party, this pa
per supported that party, though always sympathl-
zinwg It'll the lIbera, progressive, Antisavs-
nv " wing" thereof. When new issues dissolved "
G transformed old organizations through the spouta-
| neous uprising of the Missouri Res riction. The
TRIBuSE heartily participated in that movement,
1t and was known as Republican When the long
ia smolderlng conspiracy TO dlvlue ana destroy oul
country reduce it entire to complete amusement
to the Slave Power eliminated in overt treassn and
it rebellion, it naturally, necessarily regarded resist
ance to this conspiracy paramount to all ether
considerations, and devoted all ITS energies ana Ell
forts to the maintenance of Union. In every
great controversy which has divided our country, II
e has boon found that side Which naturally COM
Ia mands the sympathy amt support OF the large ma
jority OF scheol-houses and the decided minority o
grog-shops, and as doubtless will be to the last
A. Ardenily desiring and striving for the early ano
enduring adjustment Of our National distractions
. The TRIBUNE leaves thetime, the nature and thu
re conditions of that adjustment implicitly to thos
a. lawfully in authority, conhding in their wisdom
w and patriotism, anxious to aid them to the utnos
he in their arduous responsibilities and not to empar
an rass them even by possibility. Firmly believing
'A the Apostolic rule" First pure, then pcaceabe-
est holding that the total and final extrpation OF Slave
he ~ is the true and only absolute for our N,
~ tional ills-that any expedept that stops short
he this have but transient and ilusory success
ms yet PROFOUND theory Of "reconatruction an
indorse none that has propouEded by another
neither Summers, dor Writings, nor any OF the v
ing rious Copperhead devices for achieving Peace
MI Surrendering the Republic into the power Of
'~ traitorous foes--bat exhorting the American Pc
pie to have faith in their Government, to reinfor
csc their armies and replenish their treasury, we
lievo that, ii they but do their duty, benign Pro-
dence will in due time bring this fearful struggle
vas such close as will best suberve the true gre,
H. ness Of our country and the permanent well lei
