He demolished the chauvinist politics of neighboring states, fought for the introduction of Albanian as a language of ministry in Orthodox churches. The newspaper was co-operating with Hil Mosi, Sotir Peci, Thanas Tashko, etc. It was closed by a Turkish court decision because it denounced the inhumane acts of the Ottoman army against Albanian freedom fighters.
