ring for the posperity of ottr town, and we expect to continue our
labors unremittingly, merely asking a liberal and sustaining pat-
ronage at the hands of the public We hare so long and faithfully
served.
Politically, the Banner has ew been tound battling for the
triumph of the true and living principlel^.the Democratic party;
and, as a Democrat have yielded a cordial k\\d hearty support to
Gov. Coke and our present State Government. We discuss all
public issues from a strictly democratic standpoint, independent
of any clique or ring. \
Ihe Banner ppposcs and dcprecate* the extravagance and
corrupt ion ot the party now controlling the affairs ot the General
Government, and favors an early restoration ot the same into the
care and guidance of competent and honest officials—the true rep-
resentatives ot the people. It also favors the most rigid'econoniy
in the administration of the affairs of Government, both State and '
Federal, that labor may be lightly burdened by taxation.
