the public lands were the common property Of
the people and that when the money from this
source was not needed by the government, JUS

surplus smoug the states. in proportion to the

The Democratic Plan of Campaign.

The November elections destroyed the faint
hope Of SUCCESS for democratic candidate ior
President, remaining il the breasts Of in;eiilgent
democrats. They see, and own, that there Is no
sort Of prospect ahead for them, as national

then, is to be done about it 8. The problem Is

snd support Of the people, that the party
makes beadwsv and carries State after State
