FIR must be borne in mind that
this paper, according to long es
tablished principle of journalism
disclaims responsibility for the
opinions of correspondents and con-
tnbutions. 1t is just and proper to
allow wide latitude to those who
express their opinions in our col
umns. They express things the
way they see them, and we are not
supposed to furnish them our eye
glasses. Unless communications are
slanderous, or immoral, they are
pretty sure to obtain a place in the
columns of the DEMOCRAT, provl-
ded they have any bearing on the
subject discussed.
