The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1884-09-14
OUR NEW ATTIRE.

TIE HERALD greets its patrons this
morning in new raiment from head to
heel, and wearing its brightest smile.
We are sure that even those who seem
TO think it the proper thing to OCCASION
ally find fault with US will concede that
in our new garb we present very
creditable appearance and ought in this
respect at least to receive favor from all
ranks and everybody.
The change exhibited to our readers
this morning, while one Of the most if
not the most expensive ever entailed
upon any newspaper in this part of the
world for similar improvement, is not
begrudged, but given to those with whom
we associate freely, with the sincere
hope that those who oppose US now will
understand US better hereafter and re-
sort to less opposition as a consequence,
and that those who do not and have not
opposed US may have cause for self-com-
mendation that they did not.
In the times to come THE HER
AID will aim to be not merely
what it has been in the past,
but much more. It has been all along
for the people and with the people,
having an eye single to the welfare,
prosperity and greatness OF the Terri
tory in which its owners have their
home and in which they expect to lie
down to their final rest. They have no
ambitious objects which conflict with
the best interests of the whole COM
munity, whether its individual mem
bers be friendly or otherwise, and only
ask to be fairly judged and due credit
given for what they may do that is
creditable, without seeking to evade the
consequences of anything they may do
that is wrong.
THE HERALD is. greatly in love with
Utah. It has never knowingly ON any
occasion, permitted one expression
having tendency to belittle or mis-
represent. or to unduly praise or cause
lessly fatter, our people, our resources
or our principles, to enter its columns.
1t is for the right at all times and under
all circumstances, and is an open and
aVowed enemy to wrong in whatever
form or from whatever source it may
come.
Having perhaps trespassed somewhat
upon the readers patience by this re-
iteration Of our policy, we will now re-
fer him once more to the mechanical
and artistic arrangement of this num-
Der of THE HERALD. We claim that it is
as nearly chrematic and engraved typo
graphy as the thought and care of long
time journalists, and the mechanical
genius of skilled printers led by the ex-
perienced h2ndicraft of master of his
art, all backed by the necessary capital
and determination, can make such q
publication. AS heretofore, it is pre-
sented for what it is worth, knowing on
our own part that the average reader
will coincide with US that it is better
than before and therefore equal to any
reasonable demand on the part of eny
class of our people.
Take good look at the new attire,
the arrangement Of matter, the guam
tity and quaIityof subjects treated, and
the general attractions which every
where appear. and then say whether or
not We are excusable fer pointing with
no little pride to The work accomplished
and seeking the promises which the god
dess Fortune. occupying theunexplored
realms of the future, extends to legiti-,
mate enterprise of whatever nature in
oar Territory.
