SUPPORTING THE PRESIDENT.
The Freepon Bullain thinks that of the
Republican papers Of Chicago "the Journal Is
the nearest to being supporter of the Ad-
minlstration Of President Johnson" It
chargcs that the TRIBUNE supports the Presi-'
dent "whcn he advocates our theories and
only thcn."
The Du7etin does not seem 10 be awnre that
that which las no inherent tirmness or capa-
city Of resistance can not support anything.
A feather OF u straw blows east or blows west
as the wind blows, but 1t supports nothing.
An oak has capacity 10 support, because it
has capacity to resist. The true way Ia
support an administration Is to help make It
III to be supported BY resisting ali measures
which Will ultimately compel all honest men
to condemn it. Il our opposition l. based on
solid grounds, time will prove 1t, and the
right will prevail. lift Is not well grounded,
there must be some other proof Of tho fact
than TINT 1t conflicts with the President's
coWsc.
&The BuN1in could not have bestowed upon
us tEuer or moro Rracetnl commenda-
ton than the above. II Is true that the TR1-
BuSE supports the President when he adYo-
~*A<-" V%A 9@*-Ae~A'e%Ss 4AAAA way ~he*f OSC3uSE
the TRmuSE's motto Is, Principles first, Men
afterward. We adhere TO our principles, and
whoever opposes them, we oppose, be be
President or beggnr, high OF low, powcrless
or influential. Herein Is the secret of tho
success and influence of the TRIBUNE. We're
We to deviate from a strict adherence to prin-
ciple, to follow The lead Of any man, or set Of
men, we should deserve and expect to see our
circulation dwjndle 10 the dimensions of opr
evening cotemporaEy.
The TRIBUNE has supported, and will sup
port President johnson, Just so long and just
20 far as Ills course Is right and Just, and
agrees with the principles Of the Declaration
Of Independence, the Constitution, and the
faith Of the party Of Progress, Freedom and
Human Rights, and no longer and no farther.
When he deyiates from these guides, the Tel.
nCEE viii use Its whole influence and Its
whole strength 10 bring the administration
back to its proper channel, and to prevent
the people from being led AWAY into strange
paths by any man or apy policy. The TRI-
BuSE Is the organ Of q dith-not of man.
II any other journal deems 1t more wise OF
more profitable to sue for meancr and per-
sonal service, it Is welcome to my or all the
situations that are open for a well-fraincd
dunkey. We have no ambition for buttons;
and our subscription books show that indie
pendent principles are MS profitable as they
are mAn}v.
