I'ROSPECTUS iCROMWSLL ARGUS I 3; NORTH El !N GOLD-FIELDS GAZETTE. ]? 0. ; some time past it has been felt by the ■*- residents of lh« Cromwell District and its neighbouring Gold-fields that the progress of this portion of the Colony has not been commensurate with the extent of its natural resources. ;r ... This has been largely attributed to the want of an organ expressing current public opinion, anti capable of making known the value of these Gold-fields and their requirements. Previous efforts, however, to establish a local journal have failed, and the district has thus been compelled to rely for the expression of its wajjts upon newspapers representing other places. XU&, result, from various causes, has proved eminently unsatisfactory. Encouraged by the support tendered thcAV the undersigned have been induced to commence the publication of the “ Cko.mwkll Argus,” the first number of which appeared on the 3rd November current. ;fic The journal will be liberal in tone. Believing that party polities arc a mistake in a Province already over-governed, its object will be to caulgc A greater attention to he paid to the development of the resources of the inland districts, and especially of the important one it will represent. Free from party influences, and imtrammeled by obligations to any one class, it will pursue an independent career. It will maud, us an act of justice, better treatment o|, the country districts in the future. It has been too long the habit for our legislators to consider Dunedin as the Province, and that city’s most capricious wants have been supplied at the ex' pense of such districts as this one. Until change from so prejudiced a course takes place this journal will not cease in uttering its protest against a line of conduct unsound in principle and vicious in its action. It Trill also be a pari of the mission of the “Argus” to advocate si reduction of the special taxation that presses so heavily upon the mining community. Believing that with reduction of taxation and the opening up of the lauds, much of the gold (capital) lost to the colonies might he retained in it, as well as those who procure it, the paper will necessarily further these views, ns well as the important and co-relative one of the establishment of native industries. A journal of the kind we propose to supply requires an extensive circulation and to be supported in its advertising department. As we step in to meat the wishes of the community, we expect on their part they will perform their portion of the contract, and thus beget a connection that will he mutually advantageous. Our terms for advertisements will bo moderate, so that we shall oiler in this respect no obstacle to the implied bargain made with us by the public. The subscription will he (3s. per quarter j by post, 7s. Our plant is extensive, and is repleto with every requisite for executing job printing of all descriptions in a superior style. Wo have devoted great care to this branch, and have lately added a large slock of new and elegant type, to the jobbing plant. II AT IH KWS A FENWICK,
