Lcnc.tly and cordially, against the leader. Of
Ike party which expects TO eject him In No
vembcr. Loud cheers. And you will have
10 right IL cry ou, +" rai,cr" against him
You will have no right 10 talk about his
Tylerizing, or his Filmoreizing, or lis John
Suning you. You nominated him in Chica
go; YOU put plaform-a something called
pla,iorm-inio his hand; ycu asked him
for an acceptance of it, and he accepted,
amd dare say he would have accepted tue
Democratic nomination. too. Laughter
But Ee took care in his letter Of acceptance
(" say that lie would not pruca;. any policy.
lie did not consider it advisable to do SO in
