Democratic leaders, apparently struck the
popular chord 10 certainly opened the eyes Of
a large number of voters of that party, who
were not aware that they were being used for
suoh base purposes as the aforesaid self
styled leaders have in view. The voters are
thinking, and thinking hard, too. When you
get them to this point there is not much to
be feared from the scheming politicians.

people will realize the truth of my assertion
