As the custom is, we make our
bow 10 the readers Of the Emmett
index this week. 1t is not our pur-
pose to make rash promises nor to
indulge our fancy, but simply TO
outline. very briefly, the policy to
be followed in conducting the busi-
ness. The first consideration with
US is the business proposition, with
which we associate the idea. as we
believe every good cifizen should,

do in helping to develop The re-
scources OF this locality in every
way that may be opened mp before

political bias, but simply as We
deem them to be of interest. or

mild and somewhat conservative
manner, but rot in a non-commit-
4 tai sense: aiming to exercise that
charity, that causes one to recog-

We recognize the fact, also, that
aot by our efforts alone can the
paper be all it should be, but that
. We mnst be dependent in very
large measure upon the people OF
ibis community for the highest or
Ier Of success. which would make
of the Index not only good insn-
cial venture, but would make it a
credit to Emmett. Therefore we
desire. not only the business pat
