Globe Democrat
PROSPECTUS.
PROSPECTUS.

| In issuing its prospectus for ISL, the Globe
Democrat can make no promise for the future
/ that is not reasonably sure Of fultilmcnt
| judging from its history in the past. In the
| Presidential contest just closed it was rccog-
nizcd us the leading champion Of the republi-
| can cause in the west, advocating the men
and the principles of the great party Of free
dom and Nationality. and always the expo
nent If its advanced thought. We shall CON
| tinuc that course unfal'eringly in the future.
SO long rs the republican party rcriains true
to the mission ON which il set forth twenty
| years ago.
| The election OF James 4 Garfield and Ches-
ter 4. Arthur as President and vicc-Presdcnt
Of the United States. by an unqncstioncd ma
jority Of the electoral votes, secures peace
and prosperity to the country Tor four years.
We believe the new administration will soon
gain and will steadily hold the confidence. no.
only OF the republican party but Of the nation
| By is wisdom and integrity, as well rs by its
| loyalty to the principles Of the organization
| hich placed it in power. The Globe Demo
crat firmly hopes to hc apple TO give President
Garfield cordial and earnest support. II be-
| lieves he will do the right as he secs 1t, and
that he will bring to the discharge Of h- pres
| dcntial duties clear head. and honest heart
! and Il determination to serve his country to
the best;of his ability. Certain it is that no
man ever entered the white house better Mt
ted than he by nature educ. ton and expert
cnce to furnish all that We expect from good
president.
The republican party is now more thorou-
ghly united and harmonious thar il has been
| in MANY years There are no rival wings to
| it, and no opposing factions in it. The cam
| paign that has just closed welded it together
! in solid mass against the common foe, and
there are now no signs of Il possible division
We believe this unity and harmony will con
tnuc throughout General Gariieid's Admins
tratiOn. and will result III long coiItinlIc,i
lease of power to it, The democratic party is
broken and Observation-Disclosures under the
best candidate it has had in twenty years
and not likely ever again TO present the un-
broken front which the republican party h d
to meet on the second of November 1850.
While national rather than local in its con
duet and purpose. the Globe Dcmocri: will
devote special attention To the subject of iIn-
migration. doing it, best to invite the thrifty
farmers in mechanics Of the east and of Eu
rope TO settle on the fertile lands Of the south
west. and especially Of the state Of Missouri.
This subject engaged our attcnti III in the past
and now that there are four years ahead oi
IL, free from the turmoil and excitement Oh a
national political contest. we shall be enabled
to give it additional thought and energy
