     PROSPECTUS 
     
    
   
   
    
     The Weekly Advertiser and Colonial Times published inter- 
     
    
   
   
    
     national and local news, poetry, anecdotes, fiction and ad— 
     
     vertisements. It had a Liberal bias, attacking the Con— 
     
     servative Islander and opposing religious instruction in the 
     
     schools. However, the overall tone of the newspaper was not 
     
     political.
