The Leading Democratic Paper !!
WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER
NHE UNPRECEDENTED SUCCESS
L with which the Times has met, since
it's establishments, is convincing evil
dcnce that the people Of the West and
South fully appreciate the efforts of a
journal. which, in addition to its en-
terprise as newspaper, has the conr-
age to boldly declare and constantly
maintain the principles of it's political
faith.
The public Journal most deserving
of Democratic support is the one that,
in addition to being full and faithful
medium of general news, is also firm
and consistent advocate of Democratic
principles. A Democratic newspaper
is the newspaper for Democrats to
support, and the idea sometimes sought
to be incalculated by those who have
an interest of their own in doing so,
that the people must go outside their
narty organs to "find the news" is alb
snrl and irrational. There is no sort
of incompatibility whatever between
the political and non-poliIical Journal
as to the matter of news; many of fhe
papers now published throughout the
country, and especially valuable for
the amount and variety Of thex intel
'igcnce, heing also known for the abll-
ity and earnestness with which they
champion their peculiar party views.
Hence all things else beingtqual, it is
manifestly the duty of Democrats to
limit their newspaper patronage to
such as are of their Uwn'way OF think
ing ard not to sqnandT their means on
those that wage constant warfare upon
their established copsictions.
