Union Of the States, to the autonomy reserved
TO the States under the Constitution, to the
personal rights and liberties Of citizens in all
the States and Territories in the Union, and
especially to the supreme and sovereign right Of
every lawful citizen, rich or poor native or
foreign born, white or black, to cast one free
ballot in public elections and to have thut ballot
duly counted. We hold the free and honest
popular ballot and the just and equal represen-
tation OF all the people to be the foundation OF
our Republican Government and demand
effective legislation TO secure the integrity and
purity Of elections, which are the fountains of
all public authority. We charge that the pres
ent Administration and the Democratic ma
jority in Congress owe their existence to the
suppression Of tho ballot by criminal nullifl-
cation of the Constitution and laws of the
Uuited States.

GENUINE DEMOCRACY.
It's Noble Principles AS Laid Down b
Thomas ,JetiersOn.

Thomas Jefferson.
1t is as Thomas Jefferson defined it
in his inaugural address March 4, 1901:
equal and exact justice to all men,
OF whatever state or persuasion, reli-
gious or political; commerce and hon.
est friendship with all nations, entan-
Cling alliances with none; the support
of State Governments in all their
rights, as the most competent admin
istration of our domestic concerns, and
the surest bulwark to anti-republican
tendencies; the preservation of the
general Government in its whole con-
stitutional vigor, us the sheet-anchor
of our safety abroad; Il jealous care Of
the right of election by the people; a
mild and safe corrective of abuses,
which are Topped by the sword of rcvo-
luton where peaceful remedies are UNI
provided; absolute acquiescence in the
decisions of the majority, the vital
principle OF the Republic from which
there is no appeal but force, the vital
and immediate parent Of despotism; u
well-disciplined militia our best reli-
ance in peace, and for the first mo-
ments of war, till regulars may relieve
them; the supremacy of the civil over
the military authority; economy in pub,
lie expense, that labor may be lightly
burdened, tne honest payment of our
debts, and the sacred preservation Of
the public faith; encouragement of ag-
riculture, and of commerce as its hand
maid; the diffusion of information,
and the arraignment of abuses at the
bar of public reason; the freedom OF
religion; freedom OF the press; free

CAUGHT AT LAST.
How an Innocent Old Bachelor Drifted
to His Doom.

to HIS DOOms
BY reason of his skillful maneuver-
ing and great adroitness, Mr.. Billings
had lived to the age of forty-nine with
out becoming benedict, but in an un-
guarded moment the discipline of
lifetime availed him nothing.
1t was on Il May morning that he
strolled into garden with Miss Tenia
McGinnis, spinister of forty-eight.
They sat down on a garden bench, and
Mr.. Billings unwittingly said:
''See those robins building their nest
in that old apple tree"
80, Mr. Billings!" but Billings,
seeming to have lapsed into idiocy,
rambled on:
"Don't you like to see the little birds
mate ?'
80, Mr.. Billings; how you do
talk y
"Reaily, Miss McGinnis, /"
80, Nh. Billings" {"
"Why. Miss"
so, Mr.. Billings"
"No, but really, Miss McGinnis, I'm
in earnest love To-"
80, you naughty man I! And did
you bring me out here to say this to
me? o, Mr.. Billings ~
"Why, only said that I loved"
"O-oh--it's all so sudden! What
shall l say?" I-I-suppose you'll
just make me say yes. I-l-oh.

"My George y
"Why, woman, /"

George
''See here, Miss"
"Hush, darling, some one is coming"
And when their host and hostess ap-
peared Miss McGinnis blushed and
said with downcast eyes
"We're engaged"
And Billings hadn't the nerve to
deny it--so they We're married. De

Tho Republicans of the United States, as, en-
bled by their delegates In National Convention,
pause on the threshold of their proceedings to

OF the people, Abraham Lincoln, and to cover
also with wreaths OF imperishnble remem-
brance and gratitude the heroic names OF our
late leaders who have more recently been called

Logan, Conkling. May their memories be faith-
fully cherished We also recall with our greet
ings aud with prayer for his recovery the name
OF one OF our living heroes whose memory will
be treasured in the history both Of the Repub-
licans and OF the Republic-the name OF that
noble soldier and favorite child OF victory, Phil
Up H. Sheridan.
In the spirit OF those great leaders, and OF our
own devotion to human liberty, and with that
hostility to all forms OF despotism and oppres-
sion which is the fundamental ideal OF the Re-
publican party We send fraternal congratuls-
tion to our ow-Americans OF Brazil upot

pleted the abolition Of slavery throughout the

At the trials of such cases two years
ago the accused commonly offered
an elaborate defense when the evil

however, that in these days they
spend much money in employing

Some Of the defendents are willing
to appeal for mercy by promising to
obey the law. Others stubbornly
refuse to obey the law and take
their punishment with the spirit of
