A chapter of political history OF import

YESTERDAY. Free and full expression was
given TO To profound public Dissatisfaction
with the Democratic party, as al opposi-
tion, and third party was in good faith
put in the field.
The stroke Of business done was Of
most serious character. A platform con.
tanning a great deal that was excellent was
adorted and ticket that is strong was
nominated. No negotiations were carried
on. The trading politicians were left out
in the cold.
The Enquirer editorially says: To sum
up. the new party which came upon us WIN
q flourish of trumpets is but weak ana
puny affair.

with which it's action is received, and the

adopt platform which will be indorsed by
every true reformer in the State. With our
consent the ticket nominated on that Gay

We counseied and laDored for peace and
harmony between men claiming to labor for
the common cause. But the leaders OF the
new party have tasted of the insane root,
and they have declared war upon the Dem
