VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS
PLEAD FOR HARMONY
Senator Daniel Sounds the Keynote IN
a Speech at the Annual As
ISOLATION Banquet

The annual dinner OF the Virg mia
Democratic Association, given last night
at Rauscher's, was a love feast pure and
simple. characterized by harmony and
loud cries for more of IT. Everyone who
spoke called for party harmony and a
platform for the coming Presidential
campaign upon which the warning ele-
ments of Democracy, could unite for the
utter rout OF the Republican party
The principal speaker Of the occasion
was Senator John Warwick Daniel,
whose utterances were listened to with
attention by those assembled at the ban
quet board. Senator Daniels speech
was an earnest one. but his serious re-
marks were interspersed with humorous
ones. He dealt frankly with platforms
and did not dodge the issue. The Demo-
cratic party is for tariff reform, he said.
and unless they made strong declara-
ton for that in 1904 the Republicans viii
declare for it in 1906.
The Senator conceded that II was a
hardef matter for Democrats to get to-
gether than for Republicans to do so,
because the former were more individ-
ualistic. Touching upon the platforms
OF 1896 and 1900. Mr.. Daniel said the par
" had lived a hundred years without
those platforms and Il could live another
hundred without hearing them men
TONED again. Mr.. Daniel practically de-
clared for Senator German for the Pres
idential nominee OF the party. and the
mention of Germans name was greeted
by loud cheers from the assembled Vir
ginians.
Other speakers were John Goode one
of the best known and best loved Vir-
ginians living; Harry ST. George Tucker,
dean Of the Columbian Law School, and
Clarence Thomas. president OF the as
ISOLATION. Their words were all in sup
port OF the harmony doctrines Of Sen
ator Daniel Many prominent men who
had been invited sent regrets, among
whom were Senator Arthur. Pue Cor
man. Governor Montague. Gen. FiIz-
hugh Lee, Henry Watterson. IsidOr Ray
ner. and Bourke Cochran. Senator Cor
mans letter was read and the popularity
OF the Maryland Senator was shown by
the loud cheers which greeted the mem
tion Of his name.
