Judgment Of public affairs is full and.authentic
account Of facts as they transpire. Ihese 1 ne
World alwas aims TO give with conscientious
accuracy and with equal fulness and hdehty,
whether they make for or against its own views
of public policy. Prompt activity In spreading pc
fore its readers every Kind Of news in which any
part Of the public takes an interest," as the nrst
duty Of . newspaper, and the tacllities OF Inc Int
surpassed by those of any journal in the United

will not fail to furnish the news nor to supply II
witf such promptitude spirit, freshness aoun-
dance variety, accuracy and candor that no
class of readers can miss anything OF interest
which they wish to find. The World will publish
documents and arguments prepared W pomtica
foes as freely as those prepared by poiiticai
friends; making its own comments on them, OF
course, but never suppressing or garbling them
because they are calculated TO damage its own
party. Adverse arguments which II cannot re-
fute il il content to leave to make their iuil I'M
preston. The World adopts this rule because II
believes no other IL honest; because 1t conceives
that its first duty to its readers Is to keep them
thoroughly informed on every passing subject OF
intelligence. In politics The World will con.
tinue TO be the bold advocate Of
