THE STATE JOURNAL.

The STATE JOURNAL enters upon new career,
under auspices which promise perinanenee and
increased usefulness.
This paper will be Republican The organ of
no wing or clique it will aim TO represent the
policy of the National party to build up n heal
thy National sentiment, and inspire love of the
whole country.
1t will not be the vehicle of person al detracton
nor be used to get its pets into Office, 10 keep
others out. The safety of all is in the triumph
of the cause; and 10 secure it, all must labor
zealously and deyotedly, and take their chances
in the general result
Aiming to treat every member of its own party
generously, it will be just to its opponents 1t
will discuss all questions of public interest fairly
and temporarily. Asserting the right earnestly
and resolutely, and batting no jot or title of the
truth which it is called to declare it will aim to
speak the truth in love"
1t will commend genius, patriotism and virtue
everywhere, and be us prompt to expose corrupt
ton and imbecf1ity in its party in another.
We shall advocate all measures to advance the
public good, originating in own party or out
side. There are vital questions enough between
us and the opposition without seeking issues
where all good men should stand on common
ground
DthtNiHS CuuCstbuu W ut tite Cly
ing want of our State and of the country we
shall give large space to its advocacy. To edu-
cate thoroughly all the children of the State
should be the supreme and paramount work OF
legislation. To this sacred task we consecrate
our paper We shall plead the cause of the little
ones who have no voice /; and, in so pleading, we
plead for the future of Virginia in whatever can
make her great and glorious.
The financial condition n the country and O
pecally OF the South, will not be neglected. We
advocate financial policy which will bring back
again to the South more than its old prosperity
We are for the encouragement of varied home
industry. We are for Free Banking under sys
TEN which makes money absolutely safe and ac-
cessble to business men at living rates. We are
for such revenue sytem will preserve the
public credit without imposing undue burdens
upon the people.
Realizing the vast importance of mechanical
and manufacturing industry, we shall labor
heartily for the development of these interests
we shall give accurate and detailed information
of our vast natuaral wealth in mines, forests
water-powers and fisheries.
Believing in the "harmony of interests We
shall endeavor to show how fully each is Deepen
dent upon the prosperity of all; that labor ant
capital employer and employee, should be allie
and friends, enriehing each other by fraternal co
operation.
Agriculture is our pet Fresh from a Vrgini;
| farm, which we leave lovingly and reluctantly
for awhile, we have learned something of wha
wide and varied knowledge, what patience, econ
omy and administrative ability it takes to maxi
a farmer. We shall give large space to Agricul
| ture and Horticulture.
| In conclusion, we will say that we will unit
