The unprecedented success with which
tho Times has met, since its establish
uent, is convincing evidence that the
people OF the West aud South, fully ap-
preciate the efforts of journal, which,
III addition to its enterprise ;.s a news
paper, has the courage to boldly declare
and constantly maintain the principles
Of its political faith.
The public journal mostly deserving OF
Democratic support is tho one that, in
addition to being full and faithful and
consistent advocate of Democratic prin-
ciples. A Democratic newspaper is the
newspaper for Democrats to support, and
the idea sometimes sought to be inculca-
ted Ivy those who have an interest Of their
swn in doing so that the people must 80
outside their party organ to "tind the

iano sort of incompatibility whatever
between the political and non-poltical
Journal as to the matter Of news; many
Of the papers now published throughout
the country, and especially valuable for
.le amount and variety of their intel
ligencc, being also known for the ability
AID earncstness with which they cham
pioM their peculiar party views. Hence
all things else being equal, il is manifest
~ the duty ofDe,nocrats to limit their
newspaper patronage to such as are of
their own gay of thinking, and not to
sqnander their means on those that wage
constant warfare upan their established
convictions.
