The Democratic party is greater
than any of its leaders. II does not
believe in hero worship but does be.
lieve in party principles and the set
tlement of ali passing questions in
accordance with those principles and
the selection Of men for leaders who
are willing to submerge their indiyid-
ual interests for the good Of the whole
people to be obtained through the
application Of the party principles 10
the questions Of the hour.
The questions for the Democratic
party is not whom shall we follow, but
who shall do our bidding. Party lead
ers under the Democratic system diff
fer from the leaders in the opposing
palty. Their part is to hear and do
what the people say, not to control
and manipulate the people.
The party has had quite enough Of
strife between leaders and will have
no more Of it. The defeats 10 the
last two presidential campaigns were
partially due to the strife OF men who
thought they were larger than the
Democratic party But this lesson
win be needed and shall not be re-
peated.
There is no lack Of good men to put
to the front and It is not the particu.
lar prerogative of any man to be al
ways at the front. Men will be put
forward only when they are consider
ed by the party the most available
material and the best men for the
place.
There is every reason for strong
united pail c. the believers in Demo
cratic principles to put their party in
control of all departments of the

to further individual interests, appeal
to the patriotism and loyalty of every
true Democrat and he is willing to
cast aside individual interests for the
rescue Of the government
The du.y Of Democrats is not of the
passive nature, but of the aggressive
kind. An the men now in the con
troll OF the government want is TO be
let alone. The man who is up tol
