The Dubuque Herald
Dubuque, Dubuque county, Iowa
June 2, 1863

The Dubuque Herald sustains the government, the Times does not. The administration subverts the government, and the Dubuque Daily Times approves of the subversion. The Dubuque Herald makes a wide distinction between the administration and the government--as wide as the difference between Abraham Lincoln and the Constitution of the United States. The Dubuque Herald supports the Constitution against the despotism and tyranny of Abraham Lincoln. The Dubuque Daily supports Abraham Lincoln against the Constitution. The Dubuque Herald opposes all treason to the Constitution and all traitors, Abraham Lincoln included, as well as Jefferson Davis. The Times advocates and sustains the treason of Abraham Lincoln and condemns only that of Jefferson Davis.
