OUR POSITION.
In making our debut in the field of journalism, perhaps it would be well for us to define the limits of the realm in which we intend, at liberty, to roam.
We will state that this is the organ of the North Carolina Industrial Association: an organization chartered by the Legislature of this State for the purpose of holding annual expositions, by which the colored people may exhibit to a world their progress under the broad aegis of freedom-in agriculture, mechanism, invention, education, or science, etc., and that they may all be encouraged to higher endeavors in the various departments of human industry. In view of this fact, our columns will be devoted to whatever tends to promote these interests. We propose to steer clear of politics, sectarianism, personalities and the like, and apply all exertions to the improvement of our industrial, intellectual, moral, social, physical and financial resources. Therefore we hope our correspondents will take due notice and govern themselves accordingly.
