Ot the Democracy oil the nreat vest
where cheaper necessarles ol llle are pre-
ierrcd to cheap lntoXicants, c0hgrat-
ulatr you upon the results OF the Na,
tiOnal Convention held at st. Louis and
the favorable political outlook.
II is fitting that on this anniversary
oi the nations birth, the Democracy
should assemble for consultation, eX-
change OF congratulations, and discuss
means to the final overthrow OF the enc,
mics OF good government. The day and
the occasion remind us that Jefferson,
who pcnned the immortal Declaration
OF Independence, was the father and
founder OF our party; that he gave TO
the country the ownership and control
Of the Father OF Waters, and added an
empire to its then existing territory
that jefferson and his party fashioned
the grant Of the Northwest Territory,
which dedicated it to freedom and free
schools los ever; that the party OF Jeu-
crsou extended the elective franchise
until now it is almost universal; gave us
free hOmesteadsupOn the public domain
and that the Democratic party OF to-day
is restoring and has already restored
eighty or more millions OF acres OF it to
the people which had been granted by
the Republican party to railroad corpor"
ations 1t was the teachings OF Jeier'
son that gave us the Lone Star State
and California, with its vast wealth oil
silver and gold.
Nor is this all. The day OF our meet
Ing and the occasion further remind us
that Madison, another oi our iIlustrl!ous
leaders, was the father OF the constltu'
ton which created the best government
on earth that Monroe, II pioneer in De-
mocracy, gave us the Monroe doctrine
and the Floridas with their beautiful
magnolia graves and orange blossoms;
that Jackson, another beacon light IN
the pathway OF Democracy, the hero oil
the battle Of New Orleans, by his iron
hand and indomitable will struck down
that hydr.hCadcd monster OF monopo-
lists and corruption, the United States
Bank and all its branches. 1t should
be borne in mind that Democratic
doctrines are woven into the very being
and into every fiber OF our government;
that its majestic and well.rounded pro-
portions have been formed out OF Demo-
cratic thought and fashioned by Demo-
cratic hands.
The Democratic party is the child
Of the constitution, aud is its nat
