fJinE WORLD.
At the opening of tlu- rear JjsoN, h
World, challenges, more conf ' „
protected by Law stands nobly vindicated in
a splendor of victory shining from Maine to
California. Connecticut, Ohio, 1 ennsylva
nia, New Jersey, New York, have thundered
forth their verdict upon the misrule aud mad
ness of the Past. But much more still re_
mains to be done. Never was the peril at
the country greater. The Radical party still
decrees the death of representative
era meat in ten sovereign States. Armed
with military despotism and wholesale .Negro
Suffrage, it desperately grasps at a permanent
lease of power, in defiance of public opinion,
at the cost of enormous taxes and of crippled
industries, at the cost of Union and Peace.
To the great battle still to be fought The
World will give all its effort-, all its energies.
It asks of its friends in their turn as much: it
asks of them more readers and a wider influ
cnce. It asks this with confidence in its
claims as a newspaper and as an organ of
opinion.
The chief use of a Newspaper is to give its
readers
ALL THK NEWS.
For this the facilities of he World are un
surpassed by any journal in the United States.
It seeks to excel, by an accuracy and candor,
a spirit and freshness in its news columns
which shall commend it to readers of what
ever party, sex, creed or place.
As an organ of opinion, The World is the
unflinching champion of
A LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY,
whereof the corner-s tone is Freedom restrain
ed by Justice: Freedom pure and simple, in
the largest collective measure; the office of
Justice being to protect l-'reedom from en
croachments: Freedom of the individual citi
zen, in his rights of thoight, speech, religion
and locomotion; in his Right to choose his
own food and drink, in spite of meddlesome
temperance laws; in his Right to make any
money bargains he thinks propet, in spite of
foolish usury laws; in his Right to buy and
sell in all markets, domestic and foreign, in
spite of unjust protective tariffs: in his Right
<o representation in the legislative bodies
which tax him, in spite of unconstitutional
exclusions; Freedom of collective citizens to
assemble for discussion of grievances; Free
dom of all local communities to manage their
local affairs without central interference;
Freedom, in every section of the country,
from the arrogant and unconstitutional domi
nation of other sections. This large and
Comprehensive idea of Freedom sums up the
politics of The World which will never be
found wanting to this capital interest of the
country and of the human tace.
A paper pnblisbed in the metropolis is
naturally looked to for careful Market Re
ports and authentic information, and intelli
gent discussions relating to
TRADE, COMMERCE AND FINANCE.
In these features The World invites com
parison with any other journal.
