L. is understood, we presume, that names ore to |
mean something; the designation Of party should |
denote distinctive principles; and there should
be some fitness between the name and the pIlnel

political opponents TO the title Of democrats Z"
At the close Of MIR Monroe's administration the |
s-cendancy Of the democratic party was completely |
established. The several candidates whose preten |
sions TO the Presidency were urged 10 1874 oil be-

an adherence TO these democratic ADMINISTRATORS u
