in dcfeHt or Victory, whether surrounded
by tho carnage and fauaticism Of war or

Individual liberty must be maintained and
Democracy is so Jealous of the personal lib.
erty of dle individual that it will always
demand ''gilt edgedn security against
arbitrary power in every form.

guarantees for the protection of private
property against the entertainments OF arDi-
trary power.
s. Democracy demands the presorva.
ton Of public funds, and that they be
sacred,y applied TO the public uses for
which they are collected, the administration
of the government economically and within
the limitations of strict construction Of
the constitution, and that no more money
shall be taken by the taX-gatharer than Is
neci ssary for such purposes.
a. That the civil authority shall never be
subordlnated TO the military ain time OF
pence.
sacted with omen doors and the greatest
publicity That the meetings Of the party
councils shall be open to the world and that
secret political societies and closed and
guarded doors are undemOCratic and sub
versive of free government.
i. Freedom of speech and discussion
upon all questions Of government must be
sacredly maintained
Z. Freedom OF olections-a free BALLOT
and a fair count.
s. That the Democratic party will abide
by the decisions of tine supreme court of
the United States on questions Of constitu-
tional law. That the judiciary is co-ordi-
nate arm of the government under the con-
stitution and shall never become subseryi-
ent to the political branch.
