sympathy with any gathering of true
POpulists whose aim is to re-organize
our scattered forces on the original

Democracy will prove as faithless to it's
platform professions as did the Cleve-

and that in the elementary course, and
yet it assumes the right to run the
school. That is unauthorized gall and
