Fundamental principle Of our party, ''tlc
majority rules" The peoples representa-
tives in convention assembled, ruled 1t. We
made the best fight we could for our friend
Krickbaum; in the contest your able jour
nal occupied a most conspicuous position,
and did valiant service, for what many Ct
us believed would have been the best for
the party to have done; the majority, how ID
ever, saw it differently, so our regrets and
disappointments must not reign, but the

In your issue of last week observe
communication signed Enquirer" asking
enlightenment from you, upon point in
volving ones party feality, In other words
your correspondent, who have no reason
to believe is other than an honest, bona
iide, conscientious Democrat, nominates
you his political mentor and compliments
you by asking, whether record, which
has heretofore been kept untarnished by a
single blot or scratch, can still be preserved
unstained, and yet allow him to scratch
one of the names on the Democratic coun-
ty ticket this fall, After careful perusal
of your always entertaining paper, failed
TO discover an answer, to the appeal of
this political infant; no doubt the commu-
nication was received very late, and your
answer necessarily deferred nntil this week,
Couhding in your Democracy, which is un-
questioned among those who know you
best, | can readily anticipate what your
answer is to be. OF course there will be
no uncertain sound, in the emphasis with
which you will answer, no, sir, unless there

boasts of it, while they who ape the vr-
tues of the good or simulate the genuine
never hesitate to place the counterfeit be-
fore the public in their most alluring tones.
When these people initiate they always
choose pronounced type or popular sub
ject to copy from and when they claim
to be as good as "So-and So," or to sell an
article equal to ''So-and-So," the public
may depend upon it that Mr.. "So-and-So"
and his article are always the best of the
kind. THUS the sham is always proving
the genuine merits of the thing 1t cop

A firm of enterprising gentlemen produce
and popularize an article of household use,
such as the Royal Baking Powder, whose
convenience, usefulness, and real merit
make for itself an immense and universal
sale A hundred imitators arise on every
hand and as they hold out their sham ar
ticles to the public, yelp in chorus, Buy
this its just as good as Royal, and much
cheaper" The Royal Baking Powder is
the standard the world over, and its imita-
tors in their cry that theirs is "as good as
Royal" are all the time emphasizing this

Royal" as well as by their contortive
twistings OF chemical certificates and la

the Government chemists and promin ent
scientists who have certified the superio-
rity of Royal over all others, they all admit

which it is their highest ambition to imi-
tate. But the difference between the real

general appearance, is as wide as that be-

The shams all pay homage to the Roy
