The Chicago Tribune, now approaching its
twenty -lrst year, IS recognized as the leading
gan and exponent Of the great patriotic, domi-
nant Republican party Of the Northwest. The
iTt6Eae Is no ePhemeral eonceFn Of doubtful du-
ration, but permanently established institution
known and respected throughout the United
states Its circulation exceeds the combined IS
sues oi other Chicago dailies. Its past record and
career may be pointed to with pride and pleasure
ny its conductors. Since the Republican party
was organized, the Chicago Tribune has stood By
u through evil as wen good report; never in
the rear, but always in the 'front.' beekoning i. on
ward and upward; never ialtering or weary but
Away hopeful, earnest, fearless Its blows have
fallen necessarily slavery, oligarchy and trea-
son. During the entire period Of the rebellion il
blew ne uncertain blasts, but sounded the charge
and eheered on the defenders Of freedom to renew
ed efforts, assuring them Of glorious triumph
for the right as the reward Of perseverance and
sacrifice.
And now, when the wicked rebellion is crushed.

the Chicago Tribune insists that the legitimate
fruits OF our victory shall not be yielded back to
vanquished rebels By an apostate Executive, who
has basely and wickedIy betrayed the loyal peo-
PIE who intrusted him with Presidential powers
The Tribune opens a new campaign TO secure to
the Union an enduring peace, and reeonstrue-
ton based on the principles of EQUAL RIGHTS
AND EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL MEM It
therefore advocates Impartial Suffrage, irreSpee-
tive Of color or birthplace. Right wrongs no man,

by giving to every w-abiding citizen all his
rights And scheme of reconstruction will
prove satisfactory or enduring that denies equal
civil and political rights and privileges to any
class Of loyal citizens. No Democrat can oppose
impartial suffrage andequal rights without shame
ful Inconsistency and qualification. And the
South can never be truly free, prosperous or hap
Ply until all its citizens are recognized as equal
before the law, and equal in making the laws,
which they must obey, regardless of color or po-
sition
The Chicago Tribune sincerely believes in the
principles ofthe Declaration Of Independence, and
is therefore Radical in its aims, impulses and
endeavors, and is confident Of witnessing, at an
early day, the acceptance and adoption of the be-
neficent doctrines Of Republieanism in every sec
tion and subdivision Of cur common country.
The readers Of the Tribune VIII bear testimony
that the policies it has opposed have generally
been discarded; the measures it has supported
tions ve'been singularly verified. The secre.o Of
its influence public affairs Is, that 1t espouses
what Is right, earnestly, and combats what Is
wrong, boldly; and the glass with which Il sees
into the future is implicit faith in the power of
Truth and the ultimate Triumph Of Right
