claims of 'The World as one of the leading pub
lie journals Of the country. 1t is the chief organ
OF the Democratic Party of the United States, and
the foremost advocate of the immediate restoration
of the Union. Its highest merits consists in its
character as an enterprising and trustworthy news
paper.
The next year bids fair to be a more critical one
in the history of our free institutions than even
any eventful ones that have preceded it. The first
requisite for an intelligent Judgment of public af-
fairs is full and authentic account of facts they
transpire. These The WORLD always aims to give
with conscientious accuracy, and with equal full
ness and fidelity, whether they make for against
its own views of public policy. Prompt activity
in spreading before its readers every kind of news
in which any part of the public takes interst
is the first duty of newspaper, and the facilities
of The WORLD for discharging this obligation are
unsurpassed by those of any journal in the United
States Whatever else it may fail in, it certainly
will not fail to furnish the news nor to supply it
with such promptitude, spirit, freshness, abund-
ance, variety, accuracy and candor that no class
of readers miss anything of interest which
they wish to find. The WORLD will publish doc
uments and arguments prepared by political foes
just as freely as those prepared by political 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 it cannot refute it is content to
leave to make their full impression. The WORLD
adopts this rule because it believes no other is
honest; because it conceives that its first duty to
its readers is to keep them thoroughly informed
on every passing subject of Importance. In poll
tics, THE WORLD will continue to be the bold ad-
vocate of Liberal Progressive Democracy. The
unainching champion of Freedom, Justice, Order
and Constitutional Rights. The inspiration Of its
politics is Freedom restrained by Justice; or, to
speak more strictly, Freedom pure and simple, IN
the largest collective measure; the ohce OF justice
being merely to protect freedom from encroach-
ments; Freedom of the individual citizen in his
rights of thought, speech, religion and locomouon;
in his Right to choose his own food and drink, In
spite of meddlesome temperance laws; in his Right
to make any money bargains he thinks proper, in
spite of foolish usury laws; in his Right to buy and
sell in all markets, domestic and foreign, in spite
of unjust protective tariffs; in his Right to repre-
sentation in the legislative bodies which tax him.
in spite of unconstitutional exclusions; Freedom OF
collective citizens to assemble for discussion OF
grievances; Freedom of all local communities to
manage their local affairs without central inter-
ference; Freedom in every section of the country
from the arrogant and unconstitutional domination
of other sections; this large and comprehensive
idea of Freedom sums up the politics OF The
WORLD, which will never be found wanting to this
capital interest of the country and of the human
race.
In its accurate Commercial Intelligence and
careful, reliable market reports THE WORLD will
continue to maintain its present high reputation.
A paper published in the commercial metropolis is
naturally looked to for authentic information re-
latng to trade, commerce and finance; and this be-
self, it boldly challenges comparison with every
journal in the metropolis
