Show H VOTE THE TICKET i Such is the request that we make to 1 S J 5 every citizen in regard to the Democratic ii ticket It is eminently a representative ticket and the gentlemen whose names I < grace it are too well known to the community I f r com-munity to need any commendation Individually In-dividually they are worthy of the support I sup-port of every citizen who has the welfare of his country and the Territory at heart As representatives of a great party whose underlying principles rest upon the the broad foundation that political powers power-s only from the people and that c the people through lethargy or h w en erroneous idea as to their tll roug 1 1 IRtJuI thocl of maintain rights 1 and the15et 2 I ITldition of t ing them have allowed a c things to grow up which not onl yt dangers their rights as individuals but their political existence as a State an appeal ap-peal to them is the best and surest way correcting the evils complained of they should receive the hearty and enthusiastic en-thusiastic support of all lovers of truth and liberty It is for the candidates who represent these principles that we ask votes They are the exponents of doctrines which put in practice will guarantee to all the preservation of their dearest and most sacred rights The Democratic party has seen the birth and i death of many parties and today there courses through its veins the life blood of youth and strength and never was it stronger and more full of vigor than now The people of the Union have again rallied around the partys standard and have sought their safety in a return to those principles of right and freedom which will live for all time and be found triumphant r wherever liberty and prosperity reign Such being the principles in the past of the Democratic party it is but natural that Democrats should prefer them to all others and decline to accept others upon which to base their campaign They preferred their own principles to those of any other party but as citizens who only wish for the welfare of all they ask the support and suffrage of every voter without reference refer-ence to what the voters former political alliances may have been believing that if voters will but investigate their principles prin-ciples they will accept them for their logic in a free country is irresistible There have been those who have said that the Democratic party wished no sup I ill i port from those who did not belong to l that party Such has not been nor is the case How foolish and how unpatriotic unpatri-otic it would be for a party not to j i wish the support of every voter no j matter whether the voter belonged to the party or not when the party believes i that its principles are true and beyond all 4 others calculated to protect and perpetuate perpetu-ate our Government as founded For the 1 party not to wish the support of its candidates can-didates and principles by all cittizens no matter what name they may give to their political preferences would be for the Democratic party to that extent to wish harm to the Government Not I wish for the vote of the citizens of all classes in a country whose whole form I t and theories of government rest upon the will of the people as expressed by the ballot What nonsense and how absurd The DEMOCRAT earnestly asks all citizens to vote the Democratic ticket on Monday next and further to study the principles upon which that 4 party is founded There is much that needs doing in regard to our local laws and tho names on the Democratic ticket t 1 e j are a guaranty that that which needs being done will be done so far as in their power shall lie if they are elected Those jf candidates represent the right of local selfrgovprnraent and the theory that when an appeal is made to the people that a dangerous condition of affairs ex j ists the people if the facts are presented i plainly and as they are have both the i 1 i = w r = I intelligence and the honesty to right I I matters The Democrats have made that j appeal and they request that all citizens will aid them in making iteffectual and I cast their votes for Democraticticket Ion I-on Monday next I |
