tton. Tine Post will impsrtislly relate Its pro-
discuss its leading features editorially, apply
ing In all instances the test OF Democratic
principles and maintaining fidelity to the
pledges the Democracy has made to the people
There is q Democratic revival throughout
the length and breadth of the land, All Dem.
ocrats desire II shall be permanent, that in
1884 we may harvest full fruits OF fidelity to
principle and party. There are fears 1t nay

ments of discord and diversion. While The
