The Democratic party is wounded in the

rary defeat at the hands of those it has
given the ability to do mischief Those
who are stricken down have heretofore un
sparingly devoted their means, their efforts
and influence to build up the men, give
them political and personal influence, who
thus manifest their ingratitude for these fa-
vors. Was ever treachery more base? 1t
is not only infidelity to personal friend
ship and party obligations. but to princi-
ple-if their action is ever influenced by
the latter consideration.
We repeat: The Democratic party is de-
feated in the house of its friends.
1t is terrible to be thus defeated in ones
own house. but every house has the right
to regulate It's institutions in its own
way" and if the Democratic house has
been much disturbed. Why. it is the result
Of Squaner Sovereignty. Cry on, your cry
