Mr.. EDITOR :---It Is very important
that the young voters of this city aud
State be reminded of the vast diiteI-
ence between the two great political
parties of this country. The grand
Did Democratic party came into exist
ence with the formation of the GOV
arnment OF the United States, aud
Their principles have remained I'M
changed until this day. From the b.
ginning Of the Government the Demo
Gratis have been the protectors OF the
weak, and opposed TO Federal inIef-
ference In the States, aud are in favor
Of local self government. They arc
the steady and persistent friends OF
those who come he.e from foreign
countries, giving to them the rights
they are entitled TO under our constr
tuition, which are, the right 10 become
naturalized citizens and enjoy all the
beuetits of citizenship, aud when 10
power have pro- scteo American citi-
gems in every cline. Under Demo
cratic power the flag OF our country
was respected and feared in every pOlt
in the world, and ships were built
along the coast from. Maine to the
Gulf of Mexico, which did the carry
ing of the whole country. They are
opposed to large standug armies in
time of peace, which unsettles the
business of the country and wastes the
money of the Government in main
tanning men who might bs contribu.
tors instead of drones in the hive OF
prosperity. they have peIsistently
opposed sectarianism in auy form in
the affairs Of State and the Govern
ment. The are opposed TO taxing
the products of this country to support
rich monopolies. They are opposed
to the doctrine of popular suffrage, de-
nying that il is natural right, but
political privilege.
They are IN favor of the Lumblest
man voting his sentiments without
threats, or hlndfance. They are oppt ID
to crimes committed against the State
being tried by Federal courts with
packed juries. They are oppCssd to
the rich manufacturers debating or in
tiueacing their employees under threats
Of discharge II they vote their own prin-
ciples. They are opposed to mixed
schools in any commuoity, whereby the
races may become autagonizad aud the
pure American degrad, d. The are op
posed to Federal Interference at any
election believing ii to be an outrage
upon the rights of the States. This
Federal interference savors Of the tyrant
and says to the people, We the govern
ment have no conddeucs in you, the
people, . hold an election under the
laws adopted by your legislator; we
the government usutp the State law and
take you under the care aud prote otion
of Federal bayonets, this we ca free
dom; this we call human progress and
human rights. You the people of the
States are not TO be trusted; we the
government are very much interested;
our positions, cur power to rule, and
| our power TO usurp will be taken from
us, If we The great Federal government
allow YOU, thn people of the States, to
assemble peaceably and quietly, accord
ing to your State laws to hold elections;
we the government will be turned
out by our masters, the people, we are
the servants of the people, but In this
| casa where we arc so much interested.
we must be allowed to dictate 10 cur
masters, the people, for we are guilty,
and fear the verdict of an honest vote.
The Democrats are powerless in the
balls of the nation to stop this usurpa-
ton, but appeal to all lovers of our
country to vote these usurpers ont of
power at the ballot box.
Let young men remember this, that
yon may very soon find a squa of Fed
eral Oayonet at the work shcp. enfor-
lag the edicts of your employer as to
how many hours YOU shall work, and
the price you shall receive. This party
has the same right, or as much authorlty
In protecting rich monopole4 as they
have to come into a ststs and protect
the ballot box as they term 1t, II IS a
base usnrDaiion and against the prln-
clples of our free institutions. We aav
70 you, ponder well these great truths.
fer after all depends your freedom 70
vote at ell. 1t this rarty is continued In
power. This Republican party has In
stilled into them ihe old English form of
government. That the right to govern
belongs to the rich aud not the Door
We say be- careful young man, look back
ana laarn how this government was adj
ministered u0der Democratic power.
and then look back to 1860 and learn
now these men In power have abused
that which was entitled to their aoIemn
