Prospects Of the Democratic Party

We take the following extract from an arti-
at the political horizon -
According to present appearances in the po-
litica horizon, and taking into view the ele-
ments that may effect results, with what
strength will the democracy go into the can
vass! How many states would probably rally
about its constitutional platform!
Now it is a significant fact that the democ-
rats, in one portion of the Union, stand more
solidly together, and more triumphantly in the
popular vote, than they ever did before, in
these states, in the second year after tri-
umph. Take three states which, in former
days, could only at intervals be relied on for
the democratic nominee-North Carolina,
Georgia, and Tennessee-and when did the
democracy stand in better position in these
states than they do now! They have given
decided democratic majOrties in their state
elections. Could Tennessee and North Caro-
lima, both of which voted for Clay in 1916 and
for Taylor in I649, and one of which voted for
Scott, be carried for the wings nOwl Take
a stronger illustration in the case of Georgia
This state voted against the democratic nomi-
nees in 1887, al, As, and 40. Now the
election in this state, last year, was universally
tions, because there was attempted southern
fusion against the democratic organization.
The Georgia democracy, acting as they
avowed, g as an integral part of the national
democracy" stood on the Baltimore platform.
- solemny pledged to maintain the rights OF
the states and the integrity Of the Union, }"
and obtained thorough victory. Could this
state be carried against democratic
nominee! Could even the constantly wing
state of Kentucky be relied upon TO sustain
such platform as northern wings stand on
But it would require far too much space TO
go over the southern states, and show in each
the democratic strength. In all the dcmocra-
cy are united, jealous, and confident In their
cause and the democratic measures they de-
fend are stronger even than the democratic
party. In general elections, down to the last
returns from Florida, they have encountered
no general defeat In view of the democratic
strength in such states, it may be confidently
asserted, that, as basis to begin with, the
democracy can confidently count on carrying,
on common issue, the following states We
put in Illinois, because she never voted for a
wing candidate, and we are confident she new
er will and Missouri, because since 1925
she has constantly voted with the democratic
party, and is acknowledged TO be democratic
now by heavy majority -
