The recent advance of 21lsc per box-14x2o

Watauga Democrat. [volume] (Boone, Watauga County, N.C.) 1888-current, 1899-10-26
What Is q Democrati

Senator German was ap.
preached the other day and
questioned as to what he
thought of Dewey as a demo
cratic candidate for the pres
idency. He replied by asking
another question, "Is Dewey
a democrat?'
Even Dewey himself would
have great difficulty in an
swering that question. Time
was the term democrat had
a specific meaning, but that
time is passed and gone. Mr..
Bryan says that to be a dem
ocrat is to believe in the free
and unlimited coinage OF sill
yer.
Mr.. Altgeld says that to be
a democrat is to believe in
govern ment control OF trusts.
Mr.. Swanson, of Virginia,
says thai to be. a democrat
is to support Goebel..and the
Goebel election law.
And ~ on and 90 on. There
are democrats and demo-
Gratis in these days, and is
Dewey is called upon to an
swer the question which Mr..
German has propOund9d, he
will have to add several ad.
jectives and qualified senten'
ces to the famous declara'
ton of David B. Hill. lr
these days a man may attill
