THE NEW DEMOCRACY.

ANOTHER PARTY FoRAfING-TAMMANYs SECRET
coNcLAvE REBUKED.
The long-contlnued Encouragement OF the
democratic power IN this county by the would-bG
magnates Of Tammany Hail has at last aroused
the anger of the better class OF workIngmen and
the skilled laoorers Of the community, and they
have taken prompt measures to express their
disapprobatton OF the new Tammany Ring. The
representative men OF the people have been in
council, aud from the reports made to them
1t was evident that thousands OF citizens
who had heretofore stood 1rmy by the
democratic party have resolved to vote tho
republican ticket at the next election rather than
be accessory to the continuation OF the abuse OF
power and the violations OF the rights OF the citi-
Zens, 80 apparent in the present management Of
the Tammany democracy. The necessity Tor the
organization OF the people into party OF resist
ance was so clearly set forth that II was resolved
to call the true democrats together and TO act at
once From all parts of the county tho move
ment mas called forth earnest support. Mer-
chants bankers, professional men, skilled artisans
and other men OF brains, tact aud honesty
have volunteered their services toward the end
in view.
The platform needs no explanation. Its prom.
inent principles are brains and shonesty. Each
Assembly district Is 10 be called upon to send Its
delegates to county convention Tor the purpose
q
ton, in opposition to the nominees OF Tam many
Hail. The nominations Will be made by the
delegates TO that convention; not by a secret
caucus OF two or three men, who may nave
the power to make ward delegates CUP
making. The snameiul tyranny Of the nominal
ing caucus, whcn has disgraced the action OF the
Tammany Hall democracy for SO May years, IS
TO be firmly rebuked. IL Is proposed By the en-.
ergetic spirits who have tbs Important work In
hand that tue nominees shall be democTats-men
whose character IS above reproacn. NO ANNA
ton will oe made with the republican party or
with the so-called Tammany Hat democracy for
any purpose whatever. Arrangements nave been
made 70 cali mass meeting oil the citizens, az
one OF the prominent places of meeting IN
short time. when the names OF the active organ
Izers OF the W TX Will be presented.
