WHAT B0LTING BEGETs.
It Laid our Fair South Land at the
Mercy of the Torch Thirty
Years Ago.

We have been taken to task
several times for opposing the
"bolter" and that by Democrats
who are of the "holier than thou"
kind.
They try to hedge around with
arguments that might take root in
the head OF soft headed crab but
it does not find Judgement in the
head of a man who has one iota Of
sense.
AS a Democrat we are opposed to
boiling. We believe the will of the
majority should rule, whether in
convention or primary. Boiling as
we remember has cost this country
thirty years of untold suffering and
one of the bloodiest wars in the
ANIMALS of history. Had the will of a
majority been submitted to in that
Democratic convention at Charles
ton in 1860, and Stephen A. Douglass
nominated as he should have been,
he would have undoubtly been
elected and that disasterous war
averted but the non submission to
the majority rule controlled by a
faction of that convention, the
bolt was made, and the history of
the past thirty years is behind us
to tell the cost of bad discipline in
party ranks. The bolt was the
cause of the election of a sectional
president and a defeat of one op-
posed to centralizing and subdizing
powers in one mans hand.
We are as much in favor of free
silver 16 to l ratio as any citizen
and we hope to see a candidate
nominated on this platform and we
know he can be elected if the
factions do not fly off as they did in
1860 and put out an opposing can
didate. In the Democratic party
lies the hope of free coinage of
silver, low taxation and emancipa,
tion from the chains of a Repub-
lican centralized and pensienized
government. 1t strikes us as in bad
taste for men who claim to be
Democrats and they of the Office
hunting kind, continually threaten
ing to bolt should platform be
constructed without every plank of
their idea inserted therein
