Excerpt from The Idea, Vol. 3: A Sign of the Times
We are confident that when once the light is turned on the remedy will be applied. Our work is to turn on the light.
Now, we do not enjoy hitting any one, not even a rascal, and so we trust that when we give them a few jabs in the short ribs they will relieve us of any further disagreeableness by getting right. If not we shall use these columns in the inter est of better men for their positions and shall fight them, in this public capacity, without quarter. We understand that some of them have already, on hearing of the coming of this truth-telling affair, been trembling in their boots and ve even been making threats To such we would say that no honest man need have anything to fear from this publica tion, but let the rascal beware, for we are hunting for a fight, but our weapon shall be the truth, and to those who own this government may we quote, Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
