not III tue uaoll Oh replying tC
newspaper criticisms, but your
editorial comments in today's
issue of the Express are Sc
manifestly unjust that l cannot
refrain from requesting you to
publish this in my defense:
As an independent journal
the Express seems to ignore
entirely the fact that l was
nominated as a Democrat by a
Democratic convention, which
subordinated its platform to
the one to be adopted at Chi
cago by the National Demo
cracy, and that it would be
political treachery on my part
now TO bolt the National plat
form just adopted upon the
subterfuge that it was undemo-
cratic. | have never stuffed
myself, like some people have
by n declaration that | would
not support the National Demo
cratic platform lift declared for
free silver; bat, on the contrary,
have always declared-botb
before and after my nomination
that | would follow my par
ty's council in National conven-
ton assembled, as the supreme
law of my political faith on the
financial as we'll as all other
questions.
I am. one of those who be-
lieves thoroughly in party or
ganization, one who does not
propose TO be wiser than his
party and who is convinced
that the only way by which
one can serve his country sue
cessfully is through party ac-
ton and that individual opin-
ion must yield thereto. l have
candidly and vigorously fought
the issue Of the free coinage Of.
silver within party lines, until
my party has finally decided
against ne, and while my indi-
viduaI opinion has not under
gone any change in that respect
[ have yet no right as a con
sistent Democrat to place my
individual views above party
action; but, like a soldier in
ranks, obey its behests with
out sulkiug or suffering myself
to be prescribed and regardless
of whether my action may be
popular, and regardless of any
threats or promises of the for
nation of any other party which
may be called forth to oppose
organized Democracy.
The Chicago convention must
be recognized by all impartial !
men as the regular National
Democracy, chosen and called
in the usual manner, and to
revolt against its platform
and ticket on the part Of
those who, as Democrats,
promised to abide its action is
simply party treachery, and
whether renominated and elect
ed or not, whether my course is
approved by mugwumps and
Republicans or not I shall feel
that l am not guilty of such
treachery and that my con
science approves The course l
have taken.

NN}ith better understanding of the
w transient nature OF the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle ehorts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due TO any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs prompt
~ removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families. and IS
everywhere esteemed so highly by ali
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, TO note when YOU pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists
IL in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. ii
afflicted with any actual disease. one
may be commended 20 the most s6illful
physicians, but if in need Of laxative,
one should have the best. and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and IS most largely
used andgives most general satisfaction.
