keep UP the Fight.

The cardinal Democratic doctrine
is "equal rights to all, special priv
leges to none,' The fight against
those special privileges which lie at
the foundation of the concentration
of wealth in the hands of a few, and
that deprive the great majority of
the equal rights to which they are
entitled, is growing fiercer every day.
Upon the issue of this contest de.
ponds tho character, if not the very
existence of future civilization.
The line that was drawn in theelast
campaign is growing more distinct
day by day. Men who are on one
side or the other for tho sake of
party regularity must soon become
uncomfortable. They must change
sentiment or posi- i,l M stultify
themselves. This nirvcr.cnt of the
people against their oppressors is
stronger than any single party, and
there is reason TO hope that it cannot
long be resisted by any possible
combination of parties
We do not believe that the regu.
lar Democratic party is going to take
single backward step. On the con
trary it will in the future be as ex
plicit and definite on the other ques
tons as it has been on the money
issue. But if this organization
should endeavor to turn back, it
would find the tide too strong and
hopeless wreck would be inevitable.
The Democratic party in Virginia
cannot afford to lead retreat. In
the recent campaign it defeated the
alliance of the money power with ig.
gorance and venality. 1t held its
grounds against the assaults of the
combined forces of the Republicans
and the great corporations and
money influence, when they were

This year, OF all times, the Demo

Governor, man of the people, q
man who is in every way free from
the blightning influence which have
already dragged Republican institu.
tons IN this country to the brink OF
ruin. 1t will be great mistake to
nominate man who has in the past
asked special privileges for himself
or his friends, or who is any way
under obligation to the corporation
influences, which have been SO DO

ic party in Virginia. These fellows
cut loose from the party when it

Democratic party should cut loose
from them. sever every tie that ever
bound them to it and free itself of
every suspicion ofinauence from any
source whatever but the people them.

WE HAVE talked with several

they arc in favor of some changes

they will vote against it, proving
what the News kae heretofore
said, viz They consider it a
Democratic measure and will, ac.
cordingly vote against it. Such
being the case every Democrat
should consider it his duty to vote
for the measure, for If it is a
Democratic measure, it is Just
one as tie people are Sired of the
present Constitution. Bnt there
fs a mistake when it is said that
