The Democratic barbecue in Mar

Hon. Z. B. Faulkner.

BARBECUEs.-It is expected by the
Democrats to arouse enthusiasm and
achieve success by series of barbe-
cues, where roast beef, mutton, pos
sum, and other comforts for the
weary and hungry man are to be sup
piled, including a plentiful supply of
wet groceries. OF course this is con-
fession that they cannot appeal to the
reason and judgment of the people in
the hope of success. They virtually
repudiate Mr.. Calvin Brice's pro-
gramme of an intellectual cam
paign," and resort to devices to touch
the sensual man through such agen-
cies. If we mistake not, the people
fully understand and appreciate this
humiliating surrender. They may
partake of the feast and then consid-
er that they have fully repaid the
managers of the barbecues by lending
the benefit of their presence to swell
the crowd.
Indeed, the time is past when such
inventions and devices can control
the judgment and influence the deter
mination of men, in casting their bal
lots. The questions at issue are too
serious; come too near to the home
and the hearth, to be so lightly dis
posed of.
