THE TICKET.

the inspection and endorse
ment OF all good Democrats
the ticket nominated by the
County Convention of the
Democratic party at Snow Hill
last Tuesday. 1t is a ticket
composed of men who have
the respect OF all acquainted
with them. who are good,
honest business men-no per
feet. but as near to it possibly
as the one who peruses this.
There is not that man living
who cannot be picked to
pieces" by his enemies, there
fore we do not expect anything
more than the enemies of the
Democratic party will find
some fault with every candidate
on our ticket: it has always
been the case. and this will
not be an exceptional time.
We are sure that no Demo-
crat in accord with the princi-
plies OF President Cleveland
can find fault with the platform
adopted last Tuesday. 1t is to
the point,-clean cut and the
old chestnut about'a wayfaring
man though a fool" can be
used to express the thought
that it was such a plain, square
endorsement OF our honored
President that no one with the
least grain of honesty will re-
fuse to see that the leaders Of
the Worcester Democracy are
in accord with the President.
Here are the words:
That we cordially and heartily in
dorse the administration of Grover
Cleveland. President of the United
States, and reafiirm our faith in the
principles set forth by the democratic
party in the Chicago platform.
This is a platform by itself
good enough for any man
to stand upon; but it goes
further and declares in favor
of a re-assessment OF property
in the understanding
every farmer will be glad to
see, and the way to get it is to
vote the Democratic ticket.
Very few conventions are
held at which there are so
many places to fill but what
some sores are left. Those who
failed OF success at the primar-
les, or out, must show them
selves the truer. more enthu-
siastic Democrats and Staunch
supporters of the successfuls.
There will be another time to
gain recognition at the han s
OF your party, and to act other
than straight will avail moth
ing, but bring contempt upon
the man who does it. By this.
we do not mean the contempt
OF the 'bosses" or leaders,
but OF the hundreds of loyal
Democrats in Worcester coun-
ty.
The Democratic party has
nominated a good ticket and
intends to elect it by a large
majority. AS an humble part
OF that party, we ask you,
fellow Democrat, no matter to
what faction you belong, to
take off your coat and work
Tor the success oil the ticket,
and when your time comes
and it will-we will fight for
you just as hard and faithfully
as we will for the present
worthy nominees Of the Demo-
cratic party
We urge you to harmony
and warn you that you need
expect nothing but condemna-
ton oil our State ticket. as well
as county, no matter who the
nominee may be, from those
newspapers which claim to be
Democratic but are controlled
by members OF other political
parties for the purpose of
creating dissent within our
rankS
