The CANvAs.-Now that the Presidential
nominations are made, the platforms before
the people. and the canvass begun. we pro-
pose to devote considerable space TO the dis
cussion of political questions. and the publ
cation of political news We desire especially
to report al the political movements i'm the
country of both parties We invite the dem
Ocrsts To make use of these columns, if they
desire 10 do So. to publish calls for raucusses
conventions. public meetings. and TO record
their proceediI gs generally. We make this
offer. not because we have any symps thy for
the democratic party. bit because the people
are interested in the movements OF both par
ties, and are anxious to know what is being
done on each side. There is not at present.
and is not likely 10 he a democratic paper in
this county for some time to come There is
a large democratic vote in the county, and
hundreds of that party are subscribers 10 this
| paper. While this gives them no claim what
ever, upon us, we believe it to be but fair to
give them an opportunity tn make public
their doings. Republicans. too. are interes-
ted, as We have said, in the action of their
opponents. We will publish then. all DEM
ocratic movements. as we have stated. purely
as a matter of saescs. We make this PROPOSE
ton, without the request or knowledge of
any democrats. If they do not wish to &C :
cept 1t. there is no harm done.
:. OF course we expect TO publish all the pub
lie proceedings of Republicans, and shall
make our paper as effective as we can, in
overthrowing the sham democracy. and es-
tabiishing permanent and increased Republic
can majorities in this county.
We clip the above from the Hudson Times,
and cordially endorse it. We shall be happy
to give the Democrats of this County chance
to speak for themselves through the JOURNAL
for they viii have no " show" at the polls.
