Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1879-07-31
MORNING APP EAL.
THE APPEAL.

The oeportune occasion has arrives, wheH
public interest in the political character oI
the several journals published in this State,
receives a definite response. The APPEAL
has no reason to hesitate in continuing Itself
in the line OF that regular journalism which
espouses with frankness the party aud prin-
ciples which square with It's conceptions OF
right, and offer the best channel through
which genuinely independent political thought
may work out its modest results. From the
date of the founding of this journal by the
late Hon. Harry r. Mighels, the APPEAL has
held unwaveringly it's allegiance to, and has
cheerfuly co-labored with the Union Repdb-
lican Party Upon no occasion has it failed
in cheerful advocacy of Republicanism as
associated with the brightest pages of our
national history, but has furthermore stood
fast in support Of every ticket whether
National, State or County, which gave the
name of Republication to the breeze. Pro-
foundly convinced that the party organiza-
ton was not only the best but the only main
'
accorded that generous and unsJinting advO-
cacy which the very name, to say nothing Of
the deeds, Of that party 50 richly deserve.
The APPEAL has ever recognized that patriot
ism which upholds the integrity Of the Union
as paramount TO the lesser considerations
which attract the minds Of mere camp fol
lowers and political adventurous, but has
ever conceded all that in reason could be de-
manded by the more s,lhsl element, who
have presumed to call themselves Republic
cans upon the condition of assured partici-
pancy in the party spoils. 1t has been re,
luctant to indulge in complaints while often
seeing the meritorious take the modest seat
in council that should have been either vacant
or occupied by the pretentious malcontents
whose only merit consists of that idiotie
characteristic, commonly denOminated
" cheek"
The APPEAL has seen the bone and sinew
of the party grow weary of the discipline
that once won honorable victories, but latter
ly has been compelled to fritter away its
princeless strength under the worthless bann-
ers of that leadership which would sooner
betray into the hand of the common enemy
than aid in the grand consummations for
which the party was organized. The lnevlta-
BILE defeat that follows laxity of discipline
and the subsection of principle to expedlency
has come, and the APPEAL now proposes to
re erect the standards of time honored and
victorious Republicanism, in place of the
stuffed owls that have too long served as
eagles Let eowardice and poltroonery go to
their own place, while the people rally again
to the music of the Union under that re-
assertion of its principles to which Republi-
canism proposes to treat itself The tried |
and true elements of the old party still exist
and the people are ready to-day as ever
before, to march with them to definite and
combat for the right.
The APPEAL is to-day the only journal
which is the unfettered exponent of Republi-
,anism in Western Nevada. 1t takes this
nigh and sacred trust without fear, and asks
pnly the honest corporation of the people.
monopolies, and betrayers of
parties and principles, have no part or lot
with Us, and our friends and helpers are only
rue and tried Republicans.
We believe i'll the rights Of the people,
md that the Republican party was organized
or, and is great and strong enough for the
of those rights, be they what
hey may. With nought to regret in the
oast, ~ continued fidelity i'll the future,
he APPEAL claims the support of good and l
rue Republicans everywhere.
