Sir 1t gives great pleasure to read your

"A Pull All Together" AS the days increase In

cratic Convention by Populist trick, II becomes
more and more evident that there can be but two
parties the coming campaign namely, the party of
honesty and law and the party of dish)nor aid

UNION WITH REPUBLICANS THE ONLY COURSE
FOR HONEST DEMOCRATS IN THIS CRISIS.
To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Where? was the question asked by webster
when he felt he could not act with those who had
broken up the grand old Wing party, and mary
Democrat has been in serious thinking since the
Chicago Convention as to what he shall 90 IN
the pending Presidential campaign. Never did the
senior Senator from New-York appear to greater
advantage than when. In that Convention. he COM
manded the unfagging attention of even those who
would not heed his words OF sober wisdom. lie
stood sublmely there and delivered his mastery

outnumbering forces Of his unreasoning opponents

assembage outside of his countrymen and most
eloquently vocing their sentiments
The Senator-only think OF twas followed by the
fervid Bryan who captivated with his charming
utterances. and drew to himself those who were OF
his ways of thinking. Some delighted as TO
compare him with Demosthenes and Cicero Is elo-
quence merely imprisoned speech. however
nesly and freely delivered? Truly. such defamation
is not the oratory OF Demosthones against Aesch-
ines, Cicero against Catne. and Webster against
Hayne; IL is not that of Otis and Henry hurting
thunderbolts against the British To some OF
true eloquence is the power to advocate the
highest truth in religion and patriotism. Webster
has defined It in his euogy of John Adams. and
Sheridan in his Perfect orator"
The large number OF distinguished delegates who
so herocally would not subscribe TO the revolu-
tionary doctrines Of that platform. and would have
no part In the nominations to cone. can they with
self-respect and honor follow that standard?
Can we talk OF that declaration OF party principles
as being In agreement with Democracy and Re-
publicansm? for told they the political
views OF many in both great parties II so. 1t IA
Democracy and Republicanis.n run mad. in the
French Revolution.
Where can We act. those OF us who will not Join
In such unholy crusade? Patriotism Is Infinitely
above party lines and should hasten to unite
honest Democrats and honest Republicans to
crush out that monstrous heresy which would ar
ray capital against labor. and corruptly change the

our forces In a critical time to give revouonists

should act with great vigor in State oreaniza-
lions for the election of favorlte nominees for
State offices and for Congress. we should unite as
