| With able and trusted correspondents ID the
| leading capitals, and wherever great changes
| are in progress, the Tribune aims, at what
| ever cost, to lay before its readers the most
prompt, complete and popular presentment
| Of these diverse and conflicting movements
| through all OF which, as it fOndly trusts,
| the tOiIing masses are everywhere strng-
Cling up toward larger recognition anu
brighter future.
At home the struggle for Freedom seems
over. The last slave has long been cltlzen /;
| the last opposition to emancipation, enfran-
| chisement, equal civil rights, has been Tor
| mally abandoned. No party, North or South,
longer disputes the result OF the war Tor the
Union; all declare that these results must
never be undone; and, with a whole people
thus united on the grand platform OF all
rights for all, whereto our bloody struggle,
and the prolonged civil contests that fol-
lowed have led us, the Republic closes the
records of the bitter, hateful past, and turns
peacefully, hopefully to the less alarming
because less vital problems of the future.
To whatever may elucidate the general dis
cussion or action on these, the Tribune gives
alnplest space and most impartial record.
Whatever parties may propose, whatever
may do, is fairly set down In its columns,
whether this news helps OF hinders its own
views. It's readers have the right to an hon
est statement OF the facts; and this they al
ways get.
But as to it's own political principles, the
Tribune is Of course, hereafter as heretofore,
the champion Of equal rights, regardless Of
by the amendments for the permanent secur-
ity OF those rights. which have been solemn
ly incorporated by the people in the Consti-
tuition OF the United States. Independent of
all political parties, it endeavors to treat
them all with judicial fairness. 1t labors to
purify the administration of government,
National, State and municipal, and whenever
those i'll authority, whether in National,
State OF municipal affairs, take the lead in
this work, it will therein give them its cor
dial support But it can never be the servi-
tor OF any political party; nor will it surren-
der or even waive it's right to criticise and
condemn what iswrong and commend what
is right in the action OF any parties otof any
public neil.

The Weekly Tribune, now more than thirty
years old, has endeavored to keep up with
the progress OF the age in improvements md

columns to agriculture as the most essential

the ablest and most successful cultivators to
