Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1859-07-08


never 10 greater state Of alarm than
4 The present time The leaders are
fairly qaAkiug with fear. and the fol-
lowss, stricken with dismay. arc
campssing away from the Black Re-
publican fold in great trepidation.-
Thoss republissn organs which have
bssa laboriog month after month to
make . serious split in the Democratic
party 10 order that . Republican VIC
tory would be sure, are now without
any occupation; and they can only
r.-sS .e--s ~. ;.snn.;atepcy which
they ascribe 10 the two wings Of the
Democ: attic partylfor taking stand up
On the same platform.
Our toothless contemporary, the
0asssts, 10 exceedingly terrified at the
prospect. Granny Sanders has nothing
else 70 blubber over but the extreme
inconsistency Of those democrats, who,
instead Of keeping up . war OF exter-
u.ination in their own party, carry
war of determination into the ranks Of
the enemy. This may seem very wrong
70 such men - those who govern the
0asstss, but it suits Us precisely. We
ore suited, and exactly suited with the
form matters are now assuming in the
Democratic party in this State, and we
are also pleased with the confusion
into which the action Of the late Dem
&C, attic State Convention has thrown
the Opposition. The fact is, the De-
mccracy Of Iowa WAS never 70 we'll
prepared to enter the contest a. now.
Without discordant element /; with
out any internal chickering's, wranglings
and heart-burnings, the party steps
forth ~ the champion Of the people
the defenders Of the rights Of the
many. Let Us enjou upon every
democrat the necessity Of standing
IN the position where he now stands.
II wo would fight the enemy and be
taken We have only to carry out the
policy which the opposition has been
endeavoring to force upon us; but If
We would fight the enemy and take
them, we must do it BY standing shout
der to shoulder, upon the same plat
form, under one general, and with but
one common cause. We have seen
about enough Of internal war in the
democratic party Of Iowa = quite
enough OF it in other states and we
are glad that there is prospect Of q
speedy ceaaion Of this suicidal policy,
and Of coming together once more
on the same plank and under the same
banner, This has been accomplished
in this State; let the example set by
BY the Democracy Of Iowa, De copied
by other States.
The Republican party of Iowa has
failed in carrying point that it has
bsen earnestly laboring for; it a.
put upon the ticket set of third rate
men, and is actually in worse condi-
ton to-day than it has been since its
organization. The united and uniting
effort Of the Democratic party is now
called for and will be had throughout
the State, and the result will be a
glorio1s victory.
We wish to have the Gazette and
oil other republican organs understand
that We are satisfied with the present
prospects, # the Democratic party Of
Iowa. We consider our nominations
the best that have ever been made in
the State, and We are going to elect
the entire ticket. In our labors to
do 90 We shall take coguizance Of no
other party but the Democratic party
1.-The Administration party snd the
Douglas party have no existence in
Iowa-ws only know--ouly support the
National Democratic Party.
