DEMOCRATS In FAVOR OF

HUNT ANOTHER
PARTY,


The Democratic Party Has Never Car
ried out the Pledges IL has Made to tho
Peopie-TIme to try Another Party.
THE TIME HAS COME WHEN ALL
GOOD MEN SHOULD LEAVE THR
DEMOCRATIC PARTY!
How any good and intelligent
man can arrive at any other conclu-
sion, i cannot see, provided he will
lay aside prejudice and calmly con-
slider the past and present record and
teachings of the leaders Of the Demo
cratic party.
We readily admit that there are
good men in the rank and file of
that party who s'e like Paul of old.
Viz: Paul was an honest man at
heart and wanted to do right, but
such had been his early teaching and
training, that he was under delusion,
as evident from the fact that he
thought he was doing Gods service,
when he was Prosecuting the true
church of hrist. See Acts 1859 10.
Then it Is clear that Paul was de-
luded by his early training! His
teachers, either because of their cor
rupt hearts or their ignorance, had
taught Paul wrong, and that led
him astray.
And here let me say, there is q
striking analogy between Paul's con-
dition and the condition of thou
sands who are in the Democratic
party today in North Carolina.
That the above assertion is true
is evident from several consider.
atiOns.
/. Paul was taught wrong, and by
that he was led astray.
2. Paul was honest and thought
he was right when he was wrong.
3. 1t required miracle to con-
vince Paul that he was wrong.
Now let us see If the three posi-
tiOns taken above are true, when ap-
piled to rank and file Of the Demo
cratic party, their teachers and lead
ers.
But to keep from making this
article too long, we must cOndense
all we possible can. But let us notice
l. PAUL WAS TAUGHT WRONG &C.
Now / ask in all sincerity, has not
the rank and file in the Democratic
party been taught wrong by their
leaders for over 40 years?
They certainly have been! And
while dislike to refer to it, yet as
an honest man and in defence of
truth, must ask the honest reader
to go with us back to 1860 and '61.
Who was it that taught you then,
that secession was right and legal
and to secede from the great com.
pact ofstates composing this glorious
Union, would be to your interest?
Answer democratic leaders by the
press and from the stump and pull.
pit! You know this to be true as
gospel, provided you are so years OF
aye, or even well read the history OF
your country!
Were you deceived by them? Yes
And out OF the Union you went, be
heving like Paul, that you were
right, and like Paul was by the
church, you prosecuted men, womer
and children, who did not fall ir
line with you, according to th'
teachings Of your democratic leaders
And as for preachers, they had M
showing at all, unless they favored
seces ssion! And you were taught b.
the same leaders to look with con
tempt on your brother in the church
provided he was not a secessionist
being deceived, you did it, and b.
this the church lost in a grea
measure its power for good!
Well take it for granted tina
you are ready to acknowledge yo1

your leaders taught you? No!

that secession was not for your gOOt

Now let me appeal to ever
honest, but deceived democrat an
ask you, have not your leaders an
teachers been deceiving you for Ov'
80 years?
Haven't they been on every sic
