THE ILLINOIS DEMOCRACY

Nashville Nlll Democratic.
Let Democrats throw aside this idea that
we are in the minority i'll this state and
therefore have nothing but defeat to expect
This is said too often by Democrats, We
are in the majority in the nation as the last
election returns proved, and we can be in
the majority in this state if we make a
united and harmonious effort. Now is the
time to begin, Let US make up our mind:
to lay aside oil minor differences and unite
in opposing the Republican party in its eff
forts to ccntraize this government. We
want no "strong government" governed by
military rule, We want government OF
and by the people, and this is what tho
Democratic party is pledged 10 preserve.

THINGS TO CONSIDER.

The dissatisfaction which is felt in
many places over the action of the To-
peka convention. is, we regret TO say,
finding vent in expressions of protest
against the nomination of st. John
which IL adhered to, will materially cut
down the Republican majority in this
state this fall.
1t Is probably the misfortune of the
Republican party in Kansas that 1t has
been SO strong as to permit itself TO cher
ish q deceitful sense of security, and ig-
more those wise precautions, which, we
sometimes fear, nothing will ever teach
II TO observe save n sharp skirmish with
its ever wakeful and vigilant foe, the
Democratic party. But the fact cannot
be too deeply dcplored that it should
heedlessly consent To purchase wisdom
ut the price for which its refractory
members are now apparently stipulat
ing.
With ali conceded objections to the
candidacy of governor st. John
it strikes us, to say the least as in
consistent for any Republican 10 turn
his back on man who has been true t.
his party and faithful in the performance
OF his official duties, TO aid the common
enemy by Withholding his vote from
the regular nominee.
We believe that, surveying the ques

Y.o.lia,cv, ahe Republicans OF Kansa
made a mistake when they put in nom
ination n man who is 30 Objectionable :

that wholesome usage. There can be no
efficient organization, and consequently
ma party success. films, vital principle
in our political economy is ignored. THE
NEWS was not st. John organ, but it is
a Republican paper, and AS such deems
it duty to second the wishes of the peo-
pie of the state and to urge the co-opera-
alton of all Republican voters in their
decrcss.
With the exception of personal pre-
indice, which is unfortunately entertain
cd against ST. John by considerable
number of Republicans, there can be no
objection urged To the ticket, which is
of unquestioned strength in all other re-
CARDS. The opposition against the head
is not founded ON any tenable charges,
and it must not be forgotten by our dis
gruntled friends that in striking al St.
John they are giving aid to the common
enemy, and reducing the Republican
majority in the banner state of the union.
These are matters which it would be
well for all Republicans TO consider be-
fore they give their endorsement to any
ill-advised measures which will tend To
initiate against the magnitude of the
Republican victory IN Kansas at the No
vember election.

sr. John FOR GoVERNOR

ST. JOHN FOR GOVEKNOh
AS We anticipated would be the re-
suit, Governor st. John received the nom
ination At the hands of the Republican
convention ut Topeka, on Wednesday,
last. This paper did not occupy posi-
ton of enmity towards st. John, but
simply believed that a better nomina-
tion, under all the circumstances, could
be made. Several of the candidates
were Just us good temperance men as st.
John, and would have been more accept.
able 10 the entire party. II can give the
nominee an unhesitating and hearty sup,
port.
There were two leading reasons why
we always believed he would be nomin
ated. The first was that the people oi
Kansas are, by heavy majority, in favor
of the temperance amenment to the con
stitution, and st. John had identified
himself so thoroughly with that move
ment that the fight upon him, in the
minds OF the people, was a fight upor

the Governor by the liquor interest wa

ton candidates so during the canvass
