FOR 1879.

On the LIST of May. 1876, the owner
ship and control Of The WORLD passed
INFO til hand. of the undersigned, un.
d r whose abs Lutte ami untIammelled
direction the WORLD has ever since re-
manned and now remains.
During the whole Of this time TH1
WORLD has labored patiently and perse-
veringly for the accomplishment q two
great objects in politics Of paramount In.
terest to the Southern people.
!. The restoration Of local self-Rov.
eminent 1t the South.
2. A real reform of the Civil Service.
in such wise as to destroy the political
machines under the operation Of which
it has come to pass that the people are
taxed to support political parties, WHERE
rs political parties have no other reason
Of being except to Lessen the burdens q
government.
The FIRST Of these objects has been tn
umphantly accomplished. All intslli-
gent Northern men now admit that all
parts Of the country were ~ deeply in.
terested as the South in seeing it won.
A corrupt and anti Democratic govern
nent in the south WAS a permanent peril
to the ascendancy Of true American
principles in the Federal Government
and therefore to the peace and honor Of
the whole people.
The second political object for which
TIE WoRLD contends still remains to b
fully achieved. The actual Administer
ton began its career with excellent
promises in this direction Of which it 10
sufficient to say that they have been -
yaf univ in mart yU<~,v
for its part will resolutely support any
honest effort to redeem these promises
fully, by whomsoever made. and viii
- reselutely denounce every obstacle
thrown in the way Of redeeming them
from whatever quarter.
1t seems to the undersigned eminent
ly proper that he should ask the 90
operation Of the best men Of the south
with The WORLD in its efforts to carry
out the policy here outlined. He be-
lieves TIE WORLD TO be paper which
Southern citizens and Democrats can
recommend to Southern readers a. IN
influence worthy and important to BE-
brought to bear with constantly increas-
ing power upon the conduct Of our ma
tiOnal affairs. in the interest Of truth, Of
justice and Of hamony among our peo-
pie of all sections.
1t is my desire to keep TIE WORLD in
o living relation with the best thought
of the South, to the end that the best
ideas, wishes and feelings of the South
ern people may be clearly and fairly
made known To the North, the East and
the West. Alike in private and in pub
lie affairs, the misunderstanding of men
by one another hes at the root Of 90
much evil that the word itself has come
to be synonym with quarreling and
strife. 1t was wise saying Of Lord
Elgin, at the time Of one Of our sharpest
disputes with Great Britain, that two
intelligent gentlemen alone on raft ia
the Atlantic with plenary powers could
adjust the whole matter honorably I'M
an hour.
The WORLD simply asks its friends ct
the South to aid it ia bringing about .
complete meeting of minds On Ill pub
lie questions between the Intelligent
citizens of all parts of the Union.
