THE YOUNG MANS LEANING.

Almost every day comes to us
fresh evidence of the fact that the
Democratic ranks will be greatly
augmented this year by young
men who have just grown up.
Their spirit and hope for the fu
ture revolt against the Populist
party, W h c h forever
holds up to view the dark side Of
life, teaching that the leaders Of
the nation are scoundrels and that
the masses of the people are
slaves. There is nothing IN all
this appeal to the young man. He
has ambition and desires to accu-
mulate some property and rear his
family in comfort. He naturally
turns from a party that teaches
that all who have accumulated
wealth have done SO by robbery
this means that his own honest eff
forts will prove unavailinS in the
struggle for competency. He
turns to the Democratic party and
takes his riShtful place in its ranks
The Democratic party has past
and a future, 1t stands for good
government and human rights.
The young men are welcome and
at home in its fold, where prefer
ment waits upon merit.

out large crowd, more than the
house could accommodate. The
church was handsomely decorated
with flowers and evergrreny, en-
b)ematical of JOY and immortality
as well as the youthful period of
the life of man. Old people as well
as young enjoy such an occasion as
this. 1t is kind of reunion on the
part of the ncighbors and friends
which adds very much to the jov
of such a gathering. Under the
leadership of Rev. Bro. Poe and
Superintendent Bro. Buddy Me-
Who:ter the exercises were y sue

THE COUNTY COMMITTEE

1t is to be hoped that all the
members of the Democratic coun-
ty Committee will be present at
the meeting next Monday. Mat
tiers of Importance are to be at
tended to, and it will be better
to have a full committee. The
committee will have to decide
among other things, whether we
are to have one or two primaries;
and this decision will rest largely
with the candidates. Then vii!
