sxcgssarv on MAINTAINING TEE DEMOCRATIC
ORGANIZATION. r.
The pgopriety and policy Of holding
this convention hare been much discussed;
bat to me it has sseHed most proper and
polite. The democratic party, with q
veil defined syssem Of political pEiaei-
Piles, and animated By an intenae deEo-
ton 10 tho interests and honor OF the
county, comes down 10 Us from the easly
DAYS OF the Republic, wilh history init
mataly connected with sag progress and
the greatness We have achieved - pao-
pie. Bold, confident, and determined,
the Democratic party has always aasuEa'
cd and occupied It's position Affecting
either the honor of the government or
the prosperity Of the people. IL has new
| CIR sought 10 avoid the responsibility
which, because of iss iniueace and lis
powar, or right belonged 10 it and when
iiss mighty wrighs has been thrown for or
against any particular system Of public
/ policy, it has been felt throughout the
whole framework Of government. do
not mention these things to beaaE thexaof,

the past, Invoking ita spirit and feeling
its power, we may BIO stimulated to fol-
Iow where duty beakoas, whatever dan
