and regular ticket Of the Democratic organization
of the State. We do not wish The name of Doug
las to be associated with DISCRIMINATION. We do
not wish 10 see him run on . minority ticket.
However. we are well assured that this Harris
burg movement viii meet with a lean and slender
support from the friends of Mr.. Douglas in the
State. The real friends Of Mr.. Douglas do not
wish a separate ticket in the State. and they will
not support one placed in the field without the
shadow Of Democratic authority.
The CressOn Compromise gives every Douglas
man an opportunity to vote for Douglas and his
principles. 1t simply acknowledges what every
man knows to be a fact. that there is a division in
the party, and by a simple arrangement it allows
those who do not wish 10 vote for Mr.. Douglas TO
express their preference for another.
BIT those who still hold out in favor of State
DISCRIMINATION, openly admit that they prefer Mr.
Lincoln to any other Democrat than Mr.. Douglas.
Their partisanship for the man has swallowed up
their icalty TO the Democratic party. As for US.
Democracy is first, and Democratic men after
ward. There is no Democrat of good personal
character and reasonable capacity. whom We
would not prefer TO see in the Presidential Chair
rather than Abraham Lincoln.
We warn our friends at the OutStart not Ia he

Republican party.
