With this issue the Times enters upon the fifth vear of its existence {ts record as a public journal, and its acccomplishments as a business enterprise are too apparent and deeply impressed upon the minds of the peopleto require any extended vehearsel at this time. Launched forth upon the sea of lite n the midst of an opposition estab- tished and well disciplined, its strug- | gle for a place in the front rank were + test calculated «more mature and experienced man- agement, and its final supremacy is an annomily in the history of news- paper adventures. In spite of lo- cal political prejudices that are ever rife under such circumstances, the Tims steadily advanced in the pcp- ularity of the people and in the confi- dence of the business public until its position now is synonymous ‘with solidity, enterprise, faithful to party principles and indispensible to the advancement of morality and good citizenship. Politically, the Times has never swerved in its fidelity to Democracy. it nas fought in the battles of two campaigns and in quarters where evidence of our prowess may -be wanting, we point to the record there «nade as our only vindieation.
