I Want To Talk To A Nation,

I Will Always Fight For Progress And Reform, Never Tolerate Injustice Or Corruption, Always Fight Demagogues Of All Parties, Never Belong To Any Party, Always Oppose Privileged Classes And Public Plunderers, Never Lack Sympathy With The Poor, Always Remain Devoted To The Public Welfare, Never Be Satisfied With Merely Printing News, Always Be Drastically Independent, Never Be Afraid To Attack Wrong, Whether By Predatory Plutocracy Or Predatory Poverty.

There Is Not A Crime, There Is Not A Dodge, There Is Not A Trick, There Is Not A Swindle, There Is Not A Vice Which Does Not Live By Secrecy.

I Want To Talk To A Nation, Not To A Select Committee.

Our Republic And Its Press Will Rise And Fall Together.

The Power To Mould The Future Of The Republic Will Be In The Hands Of The Journalists Of Future Generations.
