the dismissal Of the detectives and the
removal Of the odious sentry boxes

rae NEW DEnooRACY

In the new aud regenerated Demoe-
rAcy we have the hope of better things.
The motive and purpose OF Il regen-
crate force was not fully rev LED in
the late campaign, but its mighty out
lines were occasionally seen through
the mists and fogs with which the
questions so boldly discussed were
shroused II was the greatest educa-
tionSl campaign OF history and follow.
ing it the mists are slowly rising and
revealing an immenslty Of purpose be-
fore which the greedy hosts Of plu-
toeraey and privilege, Of injustice and
oppression, may well pause in dismay
II is not revolutionary in the sense of
being destructive force, but It's con-
sciousness Of power may well cause
the favored and pampered classes to
consider whether after all, they have
justly appreciated and conserved the
great inheritance Of freedom and
equality boqueathed TO this nation by
an unexampled group OF patriots and
statesmen a little over a century ago.
Let us hope they may awake easily
from their dream Of conquest and EN-
pire and find in the great and benefc-
ent rule % humanity aud purer Dem
ocrAcy there is more real happiness for
them and theirs than in the princely
rule Of the favored that they would
have substituted for the government
conceived OF by Washington anC
Jefferson, and conserved by Jackson
aud Lincoln-that is, in government
OF the people, for the people and by
