Editor Of the Dallus HERALD.
| received yesterday and read with
pleasure tile HERALD of l7th ut. | was
graf fled 10 see you hold the views hereto
fore expressed as to the duty of the demo
cratic party. was particularly pleased
TO know yOu are insisting the National
Uemot ratio Committee should cell the Ma
tional convention. There is something
wrong with Mr. Belmont md perhaps
others. The attempt of the National Com,
'G.irice TO overthrow the party, whose agents
they are, by refusing to do II common duty,
is disg,accful to those who are respon-
sible for this conduct, and will be disgrace
ful to the whole committee, if those who
disapprove do not II AXE their opposition
known. If the Democratic. party is to put
itself under the guardianship of u few re-
publican sore hedds, who are as RESPONSE
BILE for the crimes aud frauds of radical
ism as Grant himself, it can not he effec.
ted by the treachcry or non action of the
committee. 1t can only be done by ma.
final convention. That three millions Of
democrats can not so stultify themselves,
we are quite sure make no question
the party will nominate its own candidates
aud none that they will be elected. Re-
cent evehts have made this certain, the
breach in the radical ranks is u fixed fact.
Grant is bitter against the malcontonts.
They are bitter towards him. Greeley,
Davis, Sumner, Schurz, Brown, Davis,
Fenton s. Co., can never support him. If
they can defeat his nomination by one of
their own men, they will throw off the
mocrats; if not, they will endeavor to
wheedle the democrats into nominating
some sore heads. Both these hopeful plans
failing, they will support the democratic
nominees. They can do nothing else. |
care not what these cunning sore head
with radicalism. The masses are DISCUS.
ted with its wickedness and folly.
fla Democratic National Convention
will put in the field candidates. whose con.
s,itutional principles are sound and who
have been positively identified with the
uni ion cause, they will be elected. never
had any respect for pass'Uism. 1t is more
palpably absurd now than ever There is
no principle no honesty, no sense and no
success in II. The sore head, hold the same
principles as Grant, and are equally OBJ
jeclionablc. No such ticket as Davis and
Parker can have the united support of
democrats; nor could Trumbull, Sumner,
Greedy, Brown or Logan. l am amazed
the passive ring can not see IT, Suppose
Davis and Parker are nominated by the
democrats. What about the canvass? How
is il to be sustained? Judge Davis 10 in
sympathy with the Labor party. Re be-
believes In the oiiinipotence of Congress-.
Besides his intolerable views in regard to
test odths, he is a paper money man. The
Labor party propose TO issue irrcdeemdble
paper, or enough to pay off the national
debt They opp,s Sc all promises to pay
Their scheme is to issue paper in this sty LEI:
"The United States declares this to be
Sl0,-tnke it or roihing." Now, sir. no
man, who is committed TO such policy,
can he elected president. Judge Davis
theI.abor- party no doubt took up for his rad
zeal opinions on the Legcl lander acts. What
hope can we have Of reformation If we put
snch men III tue lead? No, sir, it would
be pnltry work. Now is otr opportunity.
Let US not throy itaway. .. r r'
am very truly,
Your Friend.
