TO THE DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS OF THE 10th
SENATE DISTRICT.

SENATE DISTRICT.
Fellow Citizens
In conformity with the duty entrusted to
rs, by democratic Convention held in the
town of Bristol on Saturday last, the 2!d
Of April, we proceed to give a brief expos
Iton of the present position of the demo
cratic party III the Is h senatorial district,
and also Of the principles by which we
profess to be guided and governed. l. shall
be our endeavor to give Il candid exhibition
of the causes of difference in our ranks and
leave TO the enlightened judgement of the
electors TO determine in the premises.
One of the chief differences of opinion
among US, is in relation 10 the proper basis
of representation in this senatorial district
the issue Is, whether representation in the
senatorial convention shall be based upon
population, ar whether townships irrespect-
I'VE OF population, shall be equally represent
ed IN point of numbers That representa-
ton should be based on an equality of num-
bers, is regarded as a self evident political
axiom III all republican governments. f.
quail representation, is the primary element
olthe peoples rights. In all arbitrary gov
ernmcnts, The popular will Is disregardeJ,
and the more ehtctualIy the people are de-
prlved OF just voice in The governing pow
er, the more fully are they the slaves of
despotsm. Ga the other hand, that svs-
tenn OF government which secures TO every
man an equal voice, is the freest; and 50,
that system of political action which recog-
nlzes the right of the people 10 assemble IN
their primary meetings and conventions
upon principles of equality, or BY rcprcscn.
tauon based on equality OF numbers, is cs-
senlial to a well ordered government.
1t IS by the recognition of this principle
that our republican Institutions are regula-
ted, and especially upon this principle, is
the political action of the people in conycn-
tional bodies governed In accordancc with
