licans OF the State. urge them in the cleo
tion of delegates to the State Convention
to be held September 49, to reanirm the principles
OF the party and perpetuate Its influence by disci

that the democracy OF the nation is in
open and avowed antagonism to the prin.
ciples established by the republican party and
which IL was hoped would be the basis for the
restoration and perpetuatiOn OF the Union The
democratic organs, they say do not conceal the fact
that war OF races Is inevitable. and that In the
conflict the W WhUe League, aided BY the democratic
party, will reassert the claims OF the past and in
the South to-day the invitation to shake hands
across the bloody chasm has been changed to o
determination to make
