The " Union" sets itself up for teacher of
"decency and dignity forsooth 1t charges the
National Ia.elligencer with having lately applied
the term "Locotoco" to the Democratic party
The epithet has, we suppose, found its way into
columns by its being employed in an article CO.
pied from some other journal. 1t is one which we
do not like, and not in the habit of using for
it is one which, in understanding of it, we would
not apply indiscriminately to any party on account
of mere difference of opinion. Such warfare we
do not indulge il, though there may be individuals
in that party to whom it would apply with un-
doubted propriety
The Union" says, however, that it is a black.
guard epithet." We shall, of course, not handy
vulgar epithes and foul language, the use of which
we regard at all times as disreputable, with the
/" Union." We could show, from the columns of
the paper upon whose foundation the Union"
was built up, that the epithet thus stgnlatized
accepted and avowed by that paper as
long as FIVE years ago, and perhaps further back.
IN the Democratic Conventions this epithet has
been avowed and made boast of, as characterizing
the Democratic party, and especially as applicable
to the candidate nominated by that party for the
Presidency in 1914 It happens to be in our pow
err without losing time, to turn TO the record of the
proceedings of that Convention. In the " Globe
of June 6, 1914, is to be found the report of the
proceedings of the Baltimore Convention the
29th day of the preceding month"; in which Mr..
FRAZER, Of Pennsylvania, when about to change
his vote from Mr. BUCHANAN to Mr.. Polk, thus
expressed himself:
"Who going oi now (said Nj r. We are
going for the who fought bravey and undaunngy
the Wings of Tennessee-te pure, t0hoe-hog LocoFoco
Democrat who goes against Bank Of the United States and
all corrupng monopoes against the distribution Of the
ceeds of public lands against the assumption of the debts
of the States by the Federal Government against the Tory
Wings of this country and yanrizing England; in wod
man who goes against the rinssreaked and speckled WING
party and all its odious abomnable measures"
