Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1871-06-17

This is the name of a new Demo-
cratic paper to be started at Little
Rock, Arkansas. We have received
a copy Of the prospectus for the pro-
posed paper, from which we learn it
will be under the editorial control Of
John Ainslie Cate of the Memphis
APPEAL), Hon. Sol. F. Clark, Hon.
E. A. Warren, and E. A. Warren, jr.
while the Masonic department, which
will be a prominent feature in the
paper. viii be edited and controlled by
| Sam. w. Williams, M. W. Grand
Master OF the Fraternity in Arkansas.
| The following extract from the pros
pectus indicates that the Democrat
will be an honest and reliable cham
pion Of true Democratic principles:
The political editors, recognizing
/ the great necessity for an organ, at
| the State capital, which will fearlessly
! and under all circumstances advocate
pure Democratic principles, and
truthfully represent the sentiments
| Of the Democratic party Of Arkansas,
have determined to lend their sup
port, and such ability as they can
command, to such a paper; and it
will be their aim to make the Demo-
crGt a frst-class family, as well as pO-
litical, newspaper; containing every
week tie latest news from all sections /
Of the country, as we'll as correspond
enCe from reliable contributors, on the 4
-LHsAaa-H T-=Hr-H Of HNn H1vHa vrhFNn M ]
pains will be spared on the part of the
editors to collect and reflect the true
sentiments of the Democratic party, /
not only of Arkansas, but throughout
the nation. The great issues
soon to come before the people
require discussion and concert Of
action on the part Of the DEM
OCratic press in the country, and to
bring about this concert Of action and
harmony, the Democrat will be a
strong advocate. The most moment
Gus campaign known to the history Of
America viii, ere long, be upon US,
and the editors promise that no paper
shall work more faithfully than this,
ia the great struggle to defeat radical
ism and insure the success Of the Dem
OcratiC party.
The political record Of its editors, is
a sufficient guarantee that under no
circumstances ,willthe Democrat work
in the interest Of any clique, or set Of
men, but regarding the will Of the
people as sovereign, will devote its
columns to their interests, and will,
at all times, bear true allegiance to
the great Democratic party, ADvoCA-
TING No POLICY WHICH is NOT EUS-
TANNED BY PURE DEMOCRATIC PRIN-
CIPLEs.
Many Of the party throughout the
State having solicited the commence
ment Of a new paper at Little Rock, |,
the editors feel that they viii assured
ly receive that support and encourage ,
ment which has been promised, and
that Democrats, in every township in
the State, will at once unite with {
them in the effort to build up a first Z
class Democratic paper. {
In a short time the p]rOprietOrs Of |
the paper hope to issue a daily edi-
of the Democrat, and, to secure S
this object, let the friends Of the paper, I
nom all quarters, freely forward their !
subscriptions and advertisements. !

Mr.. Warren, the business manager, {

,ess. The course of the Gazette \
las provoked a general feeling v
Il indignation throughout the p
tate OF Arkansas. We have received a
everal letters from Arkansas de-
bouncing, In the severest terms, the n
curse of the central organ. A DEM u
crat Of great prominence and high .
a the confidence Of the people, in a =
seent letter, says: L
