It due to the democracy of the terrtOFy t,.1 n
should give some Of the reasons which have aetn.,
him in seeking to increase the circulation OF NJ ~ @
per-enlarge its field Of whatever usefulness mS,E
consequent, in the dissemination of the sound r!r'
cal doctrines Of the party, and the counseling -
arOusing Of the democratic masses TO the imbort,,.
Of the contest before them, in view Of the sseni.
anomyious character Of their present opponents "
the ground upon which 1t is to be presumed tb;y \
tend to conduct the campaign.
Briefly. then, in the first place, we are led 10 bsr
that coalition has or is about being formed elV,.

publican forces in this territory-meditating A eoM
mon fusion with all the incongruous elemelts M
which il can attach-contempatn the final sIson,
tiOn OF the republican patty, with view to the buia
ing up of one Of new and separate identity, Of CON

shades OF the dsaHeeted can rally, and having for N
object the breaking down, and riding under foot ~
rank and file OF the democracy, and by revoluion
possible seiZing upon its organization, county IA
territorial land believing that large prOportioh d
those Immediately interested In the allegiance nel,
red to- and in the construction of the proposed bs
party are captious, faetous political gamblers and AZ
hce-seekers, some Of whom arc abundAntly unscubn
lous for the performance Of any work OF chieahiv
and duplicity for the accomplishment Of their sel6
ends--whose iealty to any party is predicated upo
the expectation or promise Of reward Of Office a. n

having the utmost confidence in the ability intepl
rity and justice Of the administration Of JAMES Bro1
ANAN--cOnvinced that through him and the heads n
the several departments much has already been dob,
for the interest of our territory and people, which ~
are disposed to receive earnest that other in
portant measures Of some benefit will be conceded
the next two years, 1t is scarcely necessary TO ga
that the PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT endorses the met,
uTes OF his administration 80 far as developed. Ana
whilst are thus explicit on this subject we dese
II to be distinctly understood that we make no VA
upon, or have no quarrel with any true dtMOTail
lrhO cOntUm 10 lie usGges Of The party ard who mii
have honestly differed with tie President In the lit
tlement Of a single question, concerning which tAe
citizens Of this territory have 70 direct interest f
concern. But those who seek 10 make TINT question
of difference the centre around which all other isue
must revOve Or become Subseryient, even 70 the a.
structinn Of the party here and the reputation Of h
administration, we regard a. fit subjects To conse
with the aboiinnists for the construction Of neV
organization and the real demncracy can have amne
cause to congratulate themselves upon the riddanct
Of troublesome incubus upon Its vitality and pro-

Relieving that an untirng and desperate struggle
will be made by the fusiOnsts TO whom reference ht
been made. to defeat the regular democracy in tiS
nomination and election of delegate to Congress he
expose whatever Vaccinations the enemy may deVis
foreign and irrelevant issues they may seek TO M
troduce, by way OF invasion or Interpolation upon
democratic principles or for the purpose OF breakhf
down the present organization. We wl1I continue b
counsel firm and unyiedng resistance to any and Al
attempts which may tend to encourage departure
from the established rules and usages OF the party
believing that any material innovation thcieupOn viii
be faught with dangerous consequences II not create
anarchy in our ranks and render the party mpolehl
for success. 4 b.
Whilst we anticipate, who ever may be the Rsnl
nee of the approaching Territorial Democratic Con.
vention for delegate 70 Congress that It's choice WI
be choice, and whilst we expect to labor earnest
y and zealously to secure bis election, we shall from
time TO time urge upon the Of the party thai
they keep control Of their primary and county csn'
Ventons for the election Of delegates thereto N heI
own hands, and out Of those OF political trcksen, Dc
signing demagOgues or bolting fusionists. We shal
urge that the body Of the party govern in these mat
tiers, and not unscrupoous political engineers aiieI
place, honor and spoils-men who care nothing ~
party principles only in far their nwh pm.
poses subserved, and their personal feelings and
preferences or prejudces are gtauhed. *
