Republicans need have no fear over the
vicious kicks of few disgruntled soreheads
in the party who, because the man of their
choice was not chosen, propose to sulk and
mot play any more" With scarcely an ex-
ception they are, at best, uncomfortable, I'M
happy, and improbable members of the re-
publican party, which would be vastly better
off without them. True republicans have no
grief over the departure of such of their
number as see only the men as leaders in
stead of the glorious principles they repre-
sent Let them not stand on the order of
their going, but get into the democratic bed
where everything goes.' They'll be sure of
hearty reception.

Blacllman of the Courier, gets very dys-
peptic over the republican ratification meet
ing held here, and shows very plainly how il
hurt, by saying sit was funny, had it not
been painful" Yes, we expect to make il
exceedingly painful for you before the cam
paign is over, and we would remark that
your political hide has been so effectually
tanned that il should be less easily irritated
We opine that if you howl thus vigorously
over our first meeting, when the result is
known in November your readers will be as
tonished by series of blatant bawls that
will at once place you at the head of the
democratic weeping salvation army, to lead
the chorus and beat the big bass drum.

The democrats of Michigan who assembled
in convention at Detroit on the 18th inst,
adopted resolutions beginning with the fol-
lowing language: ave, the democracy of
Michigan, in convention assembled, pledge
ourselves anew to the constitutional doc
trines of the democratic party" Let us see.
We believe we haven't quite forgotten some
OF those doctrines SO emphatically pronounc-
ed during the war, and so appropriately
voiced then by Bayard, one of their present
presidential aspirants, who said in his Dover
speech, 81 JelteCe, S0lemnly, that tie ocar IN

tossed object"
Byall means, gentlemen, keep this before the
people and "pledge yourselves anew to these
constitutional doctrines and traditions of the
democratic party The voters will show
you in November that they remember how
twas themselves.

The way the democratic press and their

The tariff plank in the Detroit democratic
platform raised lively row in the conven-
ton. Some of the old Warehouses of the
party, notably Gen. McReynolds of Kent,
and Mr.. weadock of Bay, warned the con-

their "tariff for revenue only" doctrine, but
their words of wisdom passed unheeded.

The American prohibition party held a
convention in Chicago on the Goth inst, and
nominated Ex-Governor st. John of Kansas,
for the Presidency and j. A. Conant of Con-

giving Butler most unkind cut. The old
man would gladly have accepted the nomina-
ton and il would have been one more straw
in his favor at Chicago.

The democratic House of Representatives

The nomination of Cleveland by the de-
