they find the corners of the streets a more pleas

The State Fair--Don Upham

The sun rose on clear bright sky, the second

Alexander Ainley, of Rock, was declared chief

q Our neighbor of the Democrat, few weeks
ago, in speaking of the case of the delegates
from this County to the State Convention says
The action of the State Convention on this
matter was virtually this: 1t endorsed the dem
ocratic platform on which Mr. Hildreth was sent
there, and then committed Mr.. Sharpstein to
the same platform by admitting him as a dele
gate Thus both are secured TO the support of
regular democratic platform and ditto State
ticket
We are not disposed to raise any question as to
the democracy of either of the delegates sent
there. Whatsoever doubt there may have been
to the position of Mr.. Sharpstein heretofore,
his frank avowal at the State Convention that he
appeared there not as aboitionist and neither as
free soer, but as a democrat among democrats,
and his subsequent cordial acquiescence in the
orthodox platform and ticket of the Convention
is enough to convince any rational person that
free soil has no particular friend in him and il
free soilers sent him there to make mischief
among the democracy, they have got just such
treatment at his han Is as they deserved.
This is considerable of a pill for a man tc
swallow, we should think, who was elected t.
an Office by free soil votes on free soil ticket
when the old hunkers had an opposing candidate
and ticket in the field. This was said about three
weeks ago, and Mr.. Sharpstein has made no at
tempt to relieve himself from the charges which
are stated with reference to him.
Brother Paul says, his cordial acquiescenct
in the orthodox platform and ticket of the Con
vention, is enough to convince any rationa per
son that free soil has no particular friend il
him"
And Mr. Sharpstein by his silence for three
weeks, adnits that Paul has spoken the trutl
about him.
We aliude to this matter in order to better ex
plain the position which is assigned him in thu
Democrat of last week.
That paper in speaking Of the Convention
which meets on the 10th at Woods, and the de
signs of the committee who called that conyen
ton, in speaking of Mr. s., the Chairman o
the committee, says:
The chairman of that Committee has express
scd himself explicitly and frequently on that poin
too clearly to be misunderstood from which
circumstances we inter that wings, free -soiler
and abolilonists, will be alike out Of place in TIT
| Convention
We'll, we wonder if the old hunkers who bolt
ed from the same organization last fall, wont SD

At the Democratic State Convention held at
Madison in 1919, liberal grounds were taken
such as the whole party could unite on. Many
free soil delegates were in attendance, who salts
fed with the position the party then took, went
into convention, and cheerfuv lent their aid TO
elect the ticket then and there nominated. On
the ground then taken the party went forth 10
battle, and victory crowned their eff rts This
action, with the action of The legisIa nre in in
structing our Senators, and the votes Of the Sen,

Democratic party to be Free Sol Party.--Bar-
