He also held that differences of opinion in

There was an enormous amount Of prepara-

Democrats Will Celebrate His Birth
day at Monticello.
ASSOCIATION OF DEMOCRATIC CLUBS
Description of a Beautiful Spot in
eli Virginia.
FATHER OF DEMOCRACY

January has commonly been regarded
as the great democratic day of the year.
when meetings and banQuets are held
throughout the Union, and orators hold
forth in glowing terms upon the greatness
and majesty of Gen. Andrew Jackson and
the political principles he upheld with such
viSor. The day was selected because 1t is
the anniversary of the battle of New Or
leans, where Old Hickory achieved lasting
renown, but the military part of his career
seldom receives more than passing notice
in the eloquence that marks the celebra-
tons. There are many who have remarked
upon the more fitting appropriateness of
April IL as an occasion for democratic en-
thusiasm of the character described be-
cause that day was consecrated, in their
estimation, by the birth Of Thomas Jeffer-
sen, the father of the democratic party and
the author of that great document which
clDthed our forefathers in the flowing gar
ments of freedom.
To such the return of the date this year
Will be doubly pleasing, because it will be
observed by powerful organization of the
democratic party in manner BETTING its
Importance. The National Association of
Democratic Clubs, which comprises a
membership as wide as the Union, will hold
reunion next Monday at the old home
cello.
Here, on the broad lawn that stretches
away from the front of the historic man
sion, the hosts will gather to listen to the
uttefances of men inspired by their sur
roundlngs, and renew their oaths of al
legiance to the principles Jefferson enun-
ciated.
