temporary chairman of the Dem ocrat-

his speech advised the delegates not to

stand the party in this state as it has
always been Shillyshallying organi-
zation, and is now. as will be seen from
the following extract:
but the situation is not new. II
will be as it has been for 81 years. IL
will recall 1861, when the democracy
declared itself against coeYcing a state
to remain in the Union; 1862, when Il
declared itself in favor of vigorous
prosecution of the war; 1864, when Il
declared the war was n failure; 1S6f
when II rejoiced in its successful ter
minations 1868, when it favored tramp
ling the amendments under foot; 1872,
when it accepted them as wise; 1875,
when It favored protection under Til

trade; and 1884, when 1t straddled."
