Tiu: editor f this paper will an

that so long as he is editor of any paper
he will fearlessly ar.d to t he lu st of his

which lacks the couragp, self-respect,

decency, is a canker on society, and is
us loathsome as leprosy and as danger

God, Rive us men! A time like this demands
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands;
Men whom the lust of office does not kill;
Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who can stand before a demagogue;
And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking!
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog
In public duty, and in private thinking;
For while the rabble, with their thumb-worn creeds,
Their large professions and their little deeds
Mingle in selfish strife, lo; Freedom weeps.
Wrong rules the land, and waiting justice sleeps!
