Wc once thought of making the C ourier
a neutral paper ; bu t a moment’s reflec-
tion was sufficient to convince us that we
were not the person for an undertak­
ing of that kind. We are of that posi*
live turn of mind, that, were we to attem­
pt to seem oblivious to that which is trans
piring in the political wqrld we would feel
as though we ought to be hooted and
jeered wherever we went. Besides, a
neutral ” paper—published iu Oregon
at least, is of but little consequence either
to proprietor or mankind in general—
such an one neither eKites contempt nor
praise; is an existing nopenity—a stalking
corpse—prized by none

We take pleasure in saying, that, dur­
ing our journalistic career in Lafayette,
we have generally been treated with cour­
tesy and consideration by the opposition ;
that many of them have aided our enter,
prise with material patronage, for all of
which we are becomingly grateful. Had

made it a rule to “ hue to the line regard­
less of whose face the chips flew in,” but
to eschew personalities and personal abuse.

We shall in the future as in the past,
pursue the even tenor of our way, advo-
eating the cause of the Democracy and Op­
posing the policy of the opposition, beliv-
ing the same to be wrong and dang< ;erou8,
and not in harmoney with the genius of our
institutions ; and should the action of that
party call forth at our hands at any time
sharp criticisms or strong language, and
should ought appear offensive to anyone,
we have this apology to offer : that in all
human probability it was not him we meant.
All we ask is that others- will grant us
that.which we are willing to grant them,
viz : the right to think as they choose on
questions affecting alike themselves and
us.
It has not been our purpose to make
politics a specialty ; but rather the local
