Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1859-05-11

There no longer remains any sha-
dow of a doubt that the policy to be
adopted by the Democratic State Con-
vcntion on the Odd of June next, will
be Of the most concilitory and peace
able character. Such we have frequent
ly prophesied would be the case, and
from conversation with many Demo-
Gratis from different parts Of the State,
and the general pacific and concilitory
tone of our Democratic exchanges, we
are now perfectly satisfied that the de-
legates to the Convention will 60 to
Des Moines with no other object in
view but put in nomination the best
men in the Democratic party Of Iowa,
without regard to their opinions on
small matters Of policy only, and pass
such resolutions as cannot possibly be
obnoxious to any Democrat, or cause
any trouble or dissention whatever in
thd Democratic ranks.
This staS0 u feeling we are glad to
see, and we can but rejoice that that
spirit Of Cancellation which is now be-
coming 80 general throughout the
Union Is to be adopted in Iowa, with
out scarcely dissenting voice.
While it is perfectly natural that
the Administration Democrats and
the Douglas Democrats as well, would
take especial pride in passing compli'
mentary resolutions, publicly endors-
ing on the one hand, the course Of the
President, and on the other, that of
Douglas, the idea that it could be
done with safety is not for a moment
entertained by any sober minded Dem
ocrat in the State. With regard to
national politics,it seem to be the mind
Of the Democrats of both sides that
it will be perfectly satisfactory to pass
resolutions adopting the Cincinnati
Platform-leaving out and entirely
losing sight Of every matter that would
tend either directly or indirectly to
arouse any feelings Of bitterness or en-
nifty among administration Democrats,
or these Of Douglas proclivities.
BY adopting such line Of policy,
the Democratic party Of Iowa goes into
the field in solid phalanx, and with
out single weakening element. Our
Democratic friends will find, however,
that the Republicans will use every en-
deavor to destroy this harmony for if it
is not done-it these two wings Of
the Democratic party come into the
Campaign in solid body, the Re-
publicaus are fearful that lthe defeat
Of their ticket is almost certain; and
they may we'll believe it. Let the
Democrats Of Iowa bear it constantly
in mind that the spirit Of Cancellation
among them 10 hated BY the enemy
worse than the prince Of darkness
hates the light Of heaven, because it il
death TO their cause. Therefore lei
every Democrat see to it that this
very club which opposition 90 mach
fear, be made the instrument Of
speedy anihilation Of Republican rule
in the State Of Iowa.
Wan IN EUROPE INRvITADLE.
Our lateat information from Europe,
per the Anglo Saxon, shows that the
spirit Of war is lowering over Europe,
and that Wholesale bloodshed and car.
sags has become inevitable. Nor doe,
the matter rest alone with the power,
Of France and Austria but the world
il led 70 understand that Russia, viii
her hundreds Of thousands Of armei
men, ard her immense resources, ha
become the ally Of France, both oGsn
sive and ds6sssivs. Ihis announce
