neY political force like the Republican Party,
and the obstacles it must encounterin laboring
without prestige and without patronage But
Notwithstanding all this, ] know that the Demo-
CRITIC Party must go down, and the republican
Party must rise into its place. The Democrat.
icP derived its strength originally from its
adoption of the principles of equal and exact
justice to all men. So long as it practiced this
principle faithfully, it was invulnerable. Itbe-
came vulnerable whenit renowned it, and
since that time it, has maintained itself, not by
virtue OF its own strength, orseven Gifts tradi-
tonal merits, but because there as yet had ap-
peared in .thep political field no other party that
had the conscienceRnd the courage to take up 4
andiayow and practice the life.inspiring princi-
pie which the Democratic Party had surrender
ed. Atlast the Republican Party has appeared
Itavows now, as the Republican Party of 1900
did, in one word, its faith and its works: Equal
and exact justice to all,men." Even whenit
first entered the field, only half organized, it
struck n blow which only just failed to secure
a complete and triumphant victory. In this,
its second campaign, it has already won advan-
tages which render that triumph now both easy
and certain.

the idea ofequaity-the equality of all men
before human tribunals and human laws, as they
are all equal before the Divine Tribunal and

know, and you know, that revolution has
begun. know, and all the world knows, that
revolutions never go backward. Twenty Sena-
tors and hundred Representatives proclaim
boldly in Congress to-day, sentiments and opin-
ions and principles of freedom which hardly SO
in their own homes twenty years ago. While
the Government of the United States, under the
conduct of the Democratic Party, has been all
that time surrendering one plain and castle after
another to Slavery, the People of the United
States have been no less steadily and eperse-
verlngly gathering together the forces, with
which to recover back again all the fields and
allthe castles which have been lost, and to con-
found and overthrow, by one decisive blow,
the betrayers of the Constitution and Of freedom
forever.
