Pomeroy’s Paper.—“ Brick” has
posted flaming placards all over the
city announcing that his daily will
make its appearance on Saturday.—
The following are specimens of these
placards: “Red Hot For Radicals,
The Daily Democrat'’ “Beats the
world, Pomeroy’s Daily Democrat."—
“Damn it, Damn it. [ln big letters.]
But lead the Daily Democrat." 1
learn that the paper proposes to
pitch in generally, and fire right and
left into the Democratic as well as
Republican camp. Any foul story
or scandal that thepapei can get hold
of it will at once print. Everything
that is low, vile, prolane and sacrileg
ious will be grist to its mill; at the
same time ali profanity and tobacco
smoking will be strictly prohibited, both
in the editorial and printing rooms-
Brick intends to open war al once on
the IFor/rZ, and seek to draw away
its subscribers.
