Whilst large portion of the honestly dis.
posed friends of Mr.. Douglas in Pennsylvania,
are in favor of running a joint Douglas and
Breckenridge electoral ticket in that State, For
ney's Pres, the Cincinr ati Enquirer, Cleveland
P'nin Dealer, and other special organs of Judge
Douglas, are bitterly denounclhg all attempts at
harmonizng on terms ofmutuai confession. TO
show our readers the temper and disafTection
of the newspapers which have been the main
instruments in driving the Democratic party to
is present position, we copy the following:
From the Cleveland PlaindcaIer, August 1913
THE PROPOSED COM PROMISE IN PENN
SYLVAN1A.
BY telegraph to-day we learn the proposed
terms for running a Joint Douglas and Breckin-
ridge Electoral ticket IN Pennsylvania. Although
fagreed to by the Democrats, it gives the State
to Douglas beyor doubt, yet inasmuch as it
recognizes any other Democratic candidate than
Douglas we never would give our sanction to IT,
and aooutd much rather see the State 90 for Lin
cotn than DoHglas under such compromises
Neither Breckenridge nor his platform are any
part of the Democratic party. Better mnjte 1cH
the Belhtes honsand Fn,es, OR EVEN WITH
| THE LlNCOLNITES; but our motto is: Stand
by the regular organization of the Democratic
Party and its Popular Sovereignty principles
and trust to Providence and the People for sue
| cess
| We have no particle Of doubt that the above
extract from the "Clevcand Plain Dealer" ex-
presses the views and wishes of Judge Douglas
himself He is unwilling to admit by the actor
of his supporters, that there is any room for an
honest difference of opinion in making choice
between the two candidates presented to the
country by the disrupted National Convention
Rather than cooperate with men Of their party
the Plain Dealer, Forney's Press, and other pa
pers edited By men who have long been in th'
personal confidence OF Douglas, publicly declar
1t a thousand times better that his friend
should "unite wiM the BeNitrs," "or ecen sojh til
LINCOLNI7ES,'' than with Democrats WHIT
prefer Breokinridge to Douglas.
We are not surprised that Judge Douglas ant
his ultra supporters feel the preference for Q
Black Republican which they now for the first
time have the candor to confess. They prepa
work as they are now engaged in. When Sen.
ator Douglas uni ed and co operated with Wade
Gildinss, Hale, Burlingame, and the whole re.
publican party, in waging the anti-Lecompton
war on the National Administration ofthe Dem
ocratic party, and in the efforts that were made
to defeat the English bill, We then became thor
oughly convinced that he was ready for any act
of folly or desperation to which future events
might invite him. A large body Of honest DEM
ocrats could not see his action at that time as il
presented itself to us. Many are still unable to
see it as we do. But we will be more deceived
than we ever were, if his present position, pre-
ferring the election OF Bell, OF euen Lincoln, to
that of Breckinridge, does not serve to convince
thousands and tens Of thousands who had still
clung to him, that his heart is no longer with
the Democratic party.--Nepark Adv.
