STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.
Mr. Campbell accepted the nomination,
and in a brief speech thanked them for the
honor. He then attacked both the Ma
tional aud S.ate administrations, and re-
garding the tariff said The Democratic
party believes in a tariff restricted TO the
necessities of the government and one that
will not burden labor. We decline to be.
ieva that the custom house is the produc-
tive power in the prosperity Of the govern
ment. When the Democratic party re-
lrrns to power 10 will revise the tariff II
win not destroy but it Will reform. The
Democratic party was called on 70 reouke
the Republicans for hypocrisy IN its treat
ment of the Union soldiers. Republicans
/ have hsd ample opportunity to do justice
I to the soldier. aud il it has not been done
/ they are responsible.
The appearances, he said, are auspici0ul
Tor The Democrats. The laboring men arC
looking iO 1t for relief The colOred Re
publican IS in trouble. There is mutiny
an over the Republican camp. On the
other hand, the Democrats present an un-
broken front, a-d every man is eager "a
enter the contest for regsining the power
which vas corruptly taken from the Dem.
ccrals a year ago. In conclusion he pre-.
dicted @ glorious victory.
