The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1877-12-20
Established, 1851,
FOR ISSS.

During the long and exciting Presidential /
campaign Of 1876, and the anxious period Of po- /
litical uncertainty which succeeded Il, THE |
NEw-YORK TIMES had n very important |
share In determining the result Of one Of the |
most momentons contests I'm American history.
The course OF THE TIMES during the v hole OF
that eventful struggle has secured for 10 large
addition TO the number OF It's supporters and |
has pIaced bevond confroyeryry Ms poeition a.
the foremost Republican newspaper Ia the
United States.
The course Of THE TIMES will be guided In
the future, as IL has been In the past, by the
consideration that the interests OF the Republi-
can Party are In all cases 10 be set above the
interests OF its leaders, and that the honor and
welfare OF the country are TO be- considered be-
fore either. It's attitude Is that Ofiudependence
within the Republican Party, for In that way
can the interests Of the people be most eneciu-
ally served.
SO long as any OF the great principles with
which the Party has been Identified remain IN
dispute. THE TINES will refuse TO consider
the work of Republieanism is ended. IL VIII
| labor to maintain the highest standard OF par
tisan obligation in the treatment OF questions
affecting the financial honor Of the nation. the
rurification OF the public service and the grad
mai Teadiustment OF the fiscaI system TO meet
/ the changing conditions Of trade aud manu-
/ features. It will steadily oppose al plans, no
/ matter by whom urged, which tend 70 postpone
| the date Of resumption beyond that fixed by
/ law, To pay the national creditor on any other
I OASIS Lnun lLdL OF Eulls 10 pfNHtENE hh-
/ ties Which clog the development Of American
| Industry, or TO perpetuate In the public service
I the perniciOus principle that "to the victors
| belong the spoils."
While carefully avoiding all that may tend
/ 10 promote sectional animosity among our peO-
pie, THE TIMES will urge, with the utmost de-
csion, the national duty OF protecting the
/ freedmen and the Northern immigrants In the
| South in the possession Of rights guaranteed
| them by the Constitution. IL Will do all In It's
eiliation between North and south, but viii
not lose sight OF the fact that Northern cOnh-
the enforcement OF even-handed Justice and
/ scrupulOus regard Tor the letter and spirit Of
the law on the part OF the South.
Its influence as a leading exponent Of pOliti-
cal opinion will be strengthened by all that Is
needfuI TO enhance the value Of THE TIMES
as a daily record Of news. The acknowledged
excellence OF its correspondence by mail and
| telegraph from all parts Of the world will be
fully maintained. THE TlMkaS has shown
during the RussO-Turkish war how ample are
Its resources, and how well directed II its en-
teTprisc. Its vOluminOus foreign correspond
euce for the last year + admitted 10 have FUR
nished some Of the most valuable historical da-
tant epoch. The events In Europe and else
where during the coming year viii De treated
as have distinguished its treatment Of those
which now belong to the past.
In the sphere Of literary and artistic criticism,
Of scientific, social, and general discussion,
THE TIMES will address itself as heretofore,
to the appreciation Of the educated and iutelli-
gent CLASSES Of the American people. IL will be
without being coarse; at alt umes q Will strive
TO be fearless and indepemde nt IA the chainpl-
Onship OF the right. No theories subyersiye OF
the principles on which the sncredngss OF lam
ily Tics ana the existence OF society alike TepusC
viii be promulgated Ia its columns.
THE TINES rejects all advertisements Of lot
[ teries OF quaclxs and medical pretonders, and
Of all other agencies by which the insidious
poison OF vice i disseminated throughout soci-
ETY.. IL will be in the future, a. In the past, 2
