Democrats Stand by your Organ.
ization.


"Stak 10 your Party" Is good old rule
Of political action, which no Democrat should
forge; or neglect There )eng certain prinei-
piles and measures, which you believe to be
right, you ara morally bound 10 support the
party which, in power, will carry out those
principles and measures. THIS the Democrat
must stand by and support the Democratic
party. But men must be the exponent " those
principles, aud the representatives Of the party,
and there is usually more or less diversity Of
opinion, among those who hold 10 the same
principles, as to men. Hence the Convention
has become the grand expeoient, whereby 10
obtain d concentration Of political action IN
the support Of certain candidates selected by
the majority in such convention. To carry
out this, 1t is held TO use the language Of
another, TO be iiotally obligatory upon Che
minority ofthe party, 10 submit TO the major
ity in this natter just as il Is legally obligatory
upon the minority Of d government TO submit
TO the will aud DEGREES Of the majority
Hence, the Democrat must sustain the nomi-
nations made in the conventions Of his own
party, aud IN accordance with the established
usage Of that party, acting always upon the
maxim, everything for principles, nothing for
mem
But, supposing the attempt Is made by some
OF your own party, to engraft new and anti
democratic principles upon your political creed
stipposing from certain influences, your party
may veer somewhat froin what you believe thc
straight democratic path supposing certain
practices, which tob believe % be evil, have
efep ih--sdpposing Bny such cases should
arise I've have supposed some very extreme
ones not very likely 10 happen) Il Is your duty
as true Democrat 10 stand TO your party
We have no hesitation in answering
II Is the time Of all Others, when you should
stand By IT, What il new principles, YOU be-
eve not, are urged upon yodl demonstrate
reason, show the danger Of thcit adoption;
what II your party is inclined 20 tecf some
what from It's proper path Seek by argu
merit % bring II back % the straight democfs-
tic line. What II evil pratices DO prevail
TO err Il human, point out those practices, and
urge reform. What il nnprincipled leaders
strive to use the party for their own selfish pur
poses In the primary meetings Of the peo
! pie, III their cancts rooms ia their conventions
strive 10 sechte the hoftlination Of trye-hcafted
men, and honest Democrats, and il YOU can
not succeed in getting jus, such as YOU like the
/ first time submit to tie Will Of the majority,
and try again. The people viii find odt after
awhile, and you will succeed.
In all cases maintain your Democratic integ-
ffty. Never desert your party never permit,
/ by laxltg Of eIideavoF on your part, the eStab-
lished principles Of your Democratic faith t0
be tratnpled IN the dust, by the accession tJ

u Is no way to reform yont party to attempt

it sometimes said, BY Say of a solace tbf de-
feat that party becomes patrifed thereby
but We believe that ptnifeation and reform can
be as well accomplished in the light of pros;
