Jefferson and apply them to the solu-

claim our title to the name OF demo-

majority Of the democratic party in
dorsed the principles we advocate, but
for the additional reason that those
principles are In harmony with the
teachings of the father of the demo-
cratic party.
Another reason why We feel that we
are lineal descendants of his In a poll

apply to us are very similar to the
names applied TO Jefferson and his fol-
